Quick questions: Didn't FRA members use to have a technobots discount code? Does this scheme still continue today & if so, could someone PM me the code? Thanks
The scheme is still active but the procedure has changed. It used to be that you signed in with a supplied FRA username and password to get 10% discount, but when Technobots changed their website/server this changed too. Now when ordering stuff, you have to set up your own account and then select an option somewhere to state that you are a member of the FRA. (Technobots has a list of clubs that qualify for the discount scheme, the FRA being one of them). If I remember rightly, you also have to have your FRA membership number available, although it's been a while since I set mine up so I could be wrong there. You also only have to go through this process once, and then every time thereafter that you log on to buy stuff, the discount will be automatically applied.
Hi Ceri,
Please send me an email to info@fightingrobots.co.uk and I will forward you the details for technobots discount.
Thanks
Kane
Hi, don't know if it has all ready been said but could we have a pictures section where you could see photos of robots and events. Thanks
We also need a beetleweight place as the one in the general chatter is just stupid as of the size of the growth of the class, middleweight/little weight have one and are there any battles going on- no which is a shame but.....
Anyways we need a 1.3 kg forum section
Happening very soon!Quote:

Anyone with an account will be able to write content on the new site.

Can I inquire as to the current structure of the FRA, I have some points I'd like to put forward but I don't feel they are for general viewing at present
Best to just email Kane, i think at the moment Tim bence, Mike Hamilton Macy and Pete Lale are only committee, you could try them.
Snippet of a comment from the HW Lipo safety thread:
Out of curiosity, who makes up the FRA right now? I know Kane is still the chairman/main forum administrator but aside from that, things are very quiet.Quote:

Sorry Alan, missed your earlier post above mine in which you said just about the same thing :lame:
Ta
New website looks great guys :D :D
Good job!
At what events is Major Damage free to attack featherweights?
Also, is it open season to attack your house robots during bouts?
Thanks in advance, George
MD doesn't attack feather weights, well tries not to !!
He has a number of fws he can pick up / hit.
If people are worried just say so, I'm
Around during the fights just tell me to stop.
He's there to make the fights entertaining not to destroy peoples robots.
John
at maidstone i had been imobile for a little while, got picked up by MD, crusherd a litte bit and dumped out the arena
thought about asking to stop but i thought, sod it its the last fight of the last event for a while, all it did was bend my lifting arm and sheer all the bolts in a plate at the back. probably looked cool aswell
you can take on the house robots at any time, its just a bloody stuipid thing to do :lol:
i might attempt to do a razer on matilda when i attach the claw then ;)Quote:

I can see a massacare coming on! :P You'd never get Battle axe over, due to the profile and shape if nothing else. and if Alan had free reign with it....
Depends, if it could be flipped high enough to leave the floor, it might work. I really don't beleive the house robots are as ferocious as they sound. Bring it on!Quote:

weird .....
Personally think nearly all text is way too big. Otherwise the colour changes and such are good!
We're working on it! Whole new template to make live but it's not working quite right so might have to stay like this for a few hours.
Is it just me or is a portion of the page cut off? I viewed it on 2 different computers and they both have the same problem. I think some of the sizing needs adjusting. Its a good template though, I can see potential in it.

The same happens for me.Quote:

Nothing's wrong on this end, except the size of the font. It's too large.
Edit: Well, that's better. :)
Edit 2: Not better. I can see where Ben (Hard Time) is coming from. I went to browse my Fan Fic battles and...indeed the right side of the page is cut off. (using Chrome, btw)
These issues should all now be fixed.
If you are still experiencing issues or have a suggestion just let me know :D
Doesn't seem to be cutting off anymore, im using Chrome. Text still a bit odd but seems okay. Also a few thread titles are really odd colours? There also seems to be a lack of home button that takes you back to the main forum page, i know thats nitpicking but it was rather useful on the old forum layout.
Jack
EDIT 1: Found it, in a rather odd postion so not as easy to find as the last one.
EDIT 2: Dont you mean where I was coming from Kody :roll: Just kidding, glad its being sorted.
Kane,
Can you put the 4 links

Personly I am not a fan of most the text being red- I find it harder to read and a bit too much. My opinion is it was better plain black but it's just my opinion :D
With respect I still think the text in general is far too large. It makes things look rather messy. The font size on the previous layout was, in my opinion, cleaner and nicer to read.
