		<title>2025-5-17 ~ Errors navigating the forum</title>
		<link>http://chorrol.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=8380</link>
		<description><![CDATA[Many of us are having the same intermittant but frequent problem of getting an error when navigating Chorrol. It says the server is busy and/or asks us to log in. Leaving the site and coming back often fixes it but sometimes takes several attempts. A possible cause might be the large number of 'guest' bots that our old server can't handle.  There are apparently some things that can be done but we need stargelman for that.  Iâ€™ve notified him of the situation and will advise when I have any more to report.]]></description>

		<title>2019-1-14 ~ Revisions to the Oblivion Mods forum</title>
		<link>http://chorrol.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=8146</link>
		<description><![CDATA[When Chorrol was new, it was â€˜all about Oblivionâ€™ - and our modding area of the forum reflected that.   What you will soon see is changes to that area of the forum to become an all in one modding area.  There will be different sections for different games but the intent will be to keep all things modding in one area of the forum in a more consistent format that is fairly simple.  <br /><br />Once rearranging and creating new subforums is done, then quite a few existing threads will be moved down into the revised modding area.  The whole process should be complete within a day or so and Iâ€™ll update this thread when the revisions are complete.  Thanks for your patience.<br /><br /><br />Update:  Okay, pretty much done!   <img src="http://chorrol.com/forums/style_emoticons/sinders/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />]]></description>

		<title>Chorrol membership is invitation only</title>
		<link>http://chorrol.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=8036</link>
		<description><![CDATA[Chorrol has changed how we join new members due to persistent spambot infestations associated with self-registering open membership.  Rather than being able to join directly, new members will only be added when sponsored/recommended by existing members.  Members are encouraged to invite and sponsor folks they believe would enjoy and contribute to our friendly forum.  <br /><br />When you have a prospective member you wish to sponsor, send a PM to me or one of the other administrators with your candidateâ€™s following information:<br /><br />1. <u>Desired user name</u>.  The 'Members' button in the top right corner of the forum can help you precheck that the desired name is not already in use and help avoid delays.<br />2. <u>E-mail address</u>.  Though a requirement for our system, the primary purpose is for our automated assist feature should a member forget their password.<br /><br />We'll register your candidate with full member privileges and provide a temporary password via PM to the sponsor that you can pass along to the new member.   Easy.   <img src="http://chorrol.com/forums/style_emoticons/sinders/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> <br />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Chorrol.com has now moved to a new server. The new server is much more powerful, has higher bandwidth (not that that should matter) and also, the data center it's located in is powered with regenerative energy  &#092;o/<br /><br />If you notice any problems with either the site or the forums or access to certain areas of the site, usernames not working anymore or whatever, please let us know and we'll fix it as soon a possible.<br /><br />Thanks!]]></description>

		<title>2008-06-27 ~ Fan Fiction @ Chorrol Revamped</title>
		<link>http://chorrol.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=4092</link>
		<description><![CDATA[Well, I guess it had to happen someday. <br /><br />With our last update we had too much content to put on a single page. So we've had to expand the section into multiple pages.<br /><br />To make the section more accessible, and to make sure we won't run into the same problem soon, we've decided to split the old Fiction page into 4 different pages.<br /><br />Parodies and short stories now each have their own page.<br /><br />And the long stories have been listed alphabetically and are divided between two pages.<br /><br /><br />We hope you'll be happy with the changes.<br /><br /><br />Alexander]]></description>

		<title>2008-05-25 ~ Competition results!</title>
		<link>http://chorrol.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=4054</link>
		<description><![CDATA[Ok, this is it, we've just had the final judgements in. And we now know the winners for each category.<br /><br />Considering the amount of entries in most categories, I'll be posting the top five for each category;<br /><br />In the short story category;<br />First place and winner; Forward unto darkness by Adventurous Putty<br />Second place; Tedrils Journal by Andraz Drcar<br />Third place; My heart by Shades<br />Fourth place; Escape, by MafuLeTrekkie<br />Fifth place;; The true hero, by Matteo Nobis Sandén<br /><br /><br />In the medium sized category;<br />First place and winner; Sugar, or Fear and Loathing in South Cyrodiil, by Yorneim Hier<br />Second place; The Fall of the West, by Hemitheon<br />Third place; [CUaRRr]-akhh-trrals - or: A Horror of Misperception, by Squelchy Xerotripsis Underfoot<br />Fourth place; The last dance, by Agent Griff<br />Fifth place;; Eyes of the heavens, by Kyle Cadena<br /><br />And finally, in the long story category;<br />First place and winner; The story of Trey, Treydog<br />Second place; We are merely shadows, Erika Webb<br />Third place; The Tale of Matthias Etanne, Hadrian<br />Fourth place; Bloodlust, The Metal Mallet<br />Fifth place; Dance of the ja-Kha'jay, Lakyan<br /><br /><br />Now, prior to getting in the final results, we've had to think of a way to choose between the categories to see which category would win the Signed copies of Oblivion and which would win the signed copy of the Shivering Isles map. <br />In the end we decided on a random drawing, and the winner of that draw was the long story category. So Treydog wins a signed copy of the Shivering Isles map, and Yorneim Heir & Adventurous Putty each win a signed copy of Oblivion.<br /><br />I'll be contacting each winner today for the details.<br /><br />Congratulations to all the winners, and thanks again to all the participants.<br /> <br />And finally, many thanks to all the judges who sacrificed their spare time to read through all of this.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Well, as is always the case, some things have come up that we hadn't considered up front. I'd just like that for a moment. <br /><br />Once an entry has been submitted, it's final. That means that if after a week or so, you suddenly think of an even better story to enter into the category you already entered in, you'll be too late since you can not change it.<br /><br />So, if you decide to send in your entry soon, please think carefully if it's all ready to enter and if you're absolutely positive that's the story you want to enter with as you can;t change your mind lateron.<br /><br /><br /><br />And a small reminder, please make sure to read through the rules -&gt; <a href="http://competition.chorrol.com/rules.html" target="_blank"><a href="http://competition.chorrol.com/rules.html" target="_blank">http://competition.chorrol.com/rules.html</a></a> especially the submission guidelines <u>before</u> sending in a story to save yourself some extra work. <br /><br /><br />Thanks for reading this,<br /><br />Alexander <img src="http://chorrol.com/forums/style_emoticons/sinders/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />]]></description>

		<title>2008-04-03 ~ Elder Scrolls Community Competition</title>
		<link>http://chorrol.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=3976</link>
		<description><![CDATA[Not too long ago, one of the moderators here at Chorrol came up with a great idea. We've been spending many years now enjoying some great stories from community members, yet we've never had a competition for them. At least not a big one.<br /><br />So we got together with a number of other fan sites, and Bethesda, and have been able to put things together for a competition.<br /><br />Basic facts; <br /><br />Any completed story written by yourself can be entered.<br /><br />Three categories for the stories; Short stories, medium sized stories and long stories.<br /><br />Each category will have a single winner, with three great prizes to win;<br />Two copies of Oblivion signed by Todd Howard, and one map of the Shivering Isles, signed by the developers of the game.<br /><br />You can enter submissions starting today, and ending April 30th.<br /><br /><br />We've also created a special website containing all the facts, all the rules and much more. Find it here;<br /><a href="http://competition.chorrol.com" target="_blank">Competition</a><br /><br />We've also created a forum thread which you can use for any questions, comments and discussions. You can find that here;<br /><a href="http://chorrol.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=3975" target="_blank">Thread</a><br /><br />It also contains the complete set of rules there.<br /><br />So, lastly to everyone entering, good luck! And may the best writer win.<br /><br /><br />on behalf of all the fan sites involved (Planet Elder Scrolls, The Imperial Library, TES Nexus, UESP, Tamriel Rebuilt, Elder Scrolls.net, Bethesda and of course Chorrol,<br /><br />~ Alexander]]></description>

		<link>http://chorrol.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=3904</link>
		<description><![CDATA[Well, this is the second of our major fan fiction update. <br /><br />Today I've added the remaining chapters of Trey in Mournhold. So now both the stories of Trey are complete on the site. <br /><br />I've also added an entirely new story. The King and I. Written by Rumpleteasza who's a member of the regular Bethesda forums. This is a story I first discovered quite a while ago, and it's a real gem. It has everything, mad gods, insane wizards, assassins, spies, intrigue, and the best thing is it features characters from both Morrowind and the game before it; Daggerfall. A must read for all ES fan fiction lovers IMO :-)]]></description>
