Updates

New features

• Notes can carry files: an "Attached files" panel appears under the writing, and you can pick a file up right there as you read. Up to 500 MB per file, up to 20 files on one note.
• A large download resumes where it stopped: if the connection drops you continue from that point instead of starting over, and a file you have fetched once opens much faster the second time from the same address.
• You choose whether a download carries the files: the download panel under a note now offers "Notes only" and "With files". "Notes only" is the default, so doing nothing gets you exactly what you got before. "With files" carries up to 2 GB in one download and is available once an hour.

Changes

• A single note holds twice as much writing: the limit went from 100,000 characters to 200,000, so a long piece no longer has to be split in two.
• Taking the notes down takes their files down with them: while the notes are down, going straight to a file's address will not fetch it either.

Nothing changes on the page a reader sees. There is a switch that takes NMT Notes down for a while; what changed is what works on the writing side while it is on.

What changed

• The index and each note can be opened while the notes are down, and the download works too. Opening a note's address used to show the writing side a "temporary error" notice, so there was no way to open a note and see what needed fixing.
• A line at the top of those screens says the notes are currently down. When the notes render normally there is no other way to tell that the outside sees nothing. That line shows only to whoever can open them.
• Opening a note that way does not count as a view. That the view counts do not move while the notes are down was the promise made when this switch was built, and it still holds.

What changes for a reader

Nothing. With the switch on, a visitor gets the same notice as before. ⭐And it is not a matter of hiding: no title, no body and no serial is fetched at all. That is unchanged here.

The Terms of Use, the Privacy Policy and the Code of Conduct all change in this release. You will be asked to accept the new versions once, the next time you sign in or post.

The previous release turned on "if something of yours is acted on, you are told why". That machinery only ever covered posts and comments. Anyone whose account was locked, or whose ability to post was suspended, was told nothing. This release fills in the other half.

Restrictions on an account

• A notice arrives when an account is locked or posting is suspended. It says what happened, whether it was treated as breaking the house rules or as unlawful, whether it followed somebody's report, when it lifts, and where to contest it.
• A banner appears at the top of every page except the access-restriction page itself while a restriction is in force. Before, you found out by trying to post and being refused.
• ⭐"Permanent" is now written as permanent. A permanent restriction used to carry a date one hundred years out, and the screen said "until 2126". That replaced a knowable fact with a wrong number — and it is the number you would weigh when deciding whether to contest. The screen now writes permanent as permanent, and puts a time only on a time-limited restriction. ⚠The stored record still carries a far-off date: emptying that column would mean a single missed read site silently lifting a permanent restriction.
• Internal short names no longer reach the screen. A reason not in the dictionary used to be printed as-is. That is an identifier, not a reason.

Appeals

• ⭐An appeal is now counted per person, not per connection. The rule read "one appeal per restriction", but what was actually enforced was one appeal per connection point per day. If somebody else behind the same router appealed first, your appeal was rejected for the rest of the day. It is now keyed on who is contesting what.
• An answer comes back. Which of three outcomes it was — upheld, reduced, lifted — and the reasoning: as a notice if you are signed in, or written by hand to the address you left if you appealed as a guest. Any address you left is deleted the moment the answer is sent.

Notices

• ⭐"Read" no longer deletes a notice. For a post or a comment, the statement of reasons exists only in that list, so the button used to tidy the list was destroying the only copy of why you were restricted — the very thing you need in order to contest it. "Read" now marks; deleting is a separate button.
• Unread notices sort to the top.
• The T-marked comment strip at the top of a board reordered for the same reason. It was written to put recently revived comments first; comments never revived were taking the front, so the sort was doing nothing.

Reports

• A name field (optional). A notice of illegality asks who is giving it, as the European regulation requires.
• ⭐Reports of unlawful content, and copyright reports, can be filed by someone who is restricted. A locked account that came across unlawful material used to find the form closed. Rate limits and the confirmation box are unchanged.
• Both the receipt and the decision now say what you can do next. The Terms said both did; the receipt said nothing. The notice was changed to match the document rather than the other way round. The decision also names the court and out-of-court routes.
• An "unlawful" call with no legal ground given is handled as a house-rules breach instead. Telling someone their post was unlawful, without naming a law, asserts illegality.
• When a post is removed, every other member who commented on it is told — the Policy promised this, but the code that sent it existed only on the path where the author deletes.

Your downloadable copy

• Missing columns are in it now — notice bodies and read times, the address and name left on a report, the contact and answer on an appeal, a post's English title and body and edit time, and more.
• ⭐A check now keeps the copy from narrowing again. Add a column to one of six tables — posts, comments, reports, appeals, notices, direct messages — and it must either appear in the export or carry a one-line reason for its absence.

Old records

• A nightly sweep now actually deletes what the Policy says is deleted: audit-log entries after three years, closed reports and appeals after ninety days, notices after three years.

In the documents

• ⭐The claim of a statutory ground for sensitive material is gone. Korean law opens two doors and neither is open here. Rather than name a ground that does not exist, the Policy states that, and states instead what is not done: nothing is classified, nothing is extracted, and nothing is judged on that basis.
• A department that does not exist is gone. The last release named a "personal data protection unit". The statutory items are listed as the law words them, and the sentence declining to claim compliance is back.
• A demand to suspend processing gets an answer that can be kept. Future copies and copies already made are treated separately; the second are refused on the ground the statute lists, with that ground and the way to contest it sent within ten days.
• ⭐Korean consumers are no longer split by where they live. Korean law governs, so its standard-terms act reaches everyone. The European directive carries the same proviso.
• Removal from search listings is split into what happens by itself and what has to be done by hand.
• Unmeasurable phrases like "most Members" are gone. What happens when individual notice does not reach you is now the method the Enforcement Decree names: thirty days posted on the site.
• The repeat-infringer policy and the identity of whoever reported are now separate. The first is a record of a judgement made here; the second belongs to the reporter and goes as soon as they are answered.
• Counter-notification is described for copyright reports, with the elements US law requires and the ten-to-fourteen business days. "This cannot be undone" is gone from the notice.
• The Code told channel moderators they "see reports". It now names the three things they actually see.

⚠One thing is still open. A ninety-day delete-refusal lock on the off-site copy delays an erasure request by up to ninety-one days. This release fixed the sentence — no invented legal exception, and the period stated as what is not met. Shortening the period itself lowers a defence protecting the backups, so it is left as a separate decision.

The Terms of Use and the Privacy Policy change in this release. You will be asked to accept the new versions once, the next time you sign in or post.

This release did not only change the documents. Where a document promised something the product did not do, the product was changed rather than the sentence.

If something of yours is acted on, you are told why

• A notice arrives when your post or comment is hidden or removed. It says what happened, whether it was treated as breaking the house rules or as unlawful, whether it followed somebody's report or a review made here, whether an automatic filter flagged it first, and where to contest it.
• A channel moderator now has to write a reason before anything is hidden, and what they write is sent to the author. The Code of Conduct had always required a reason; there was nowhere to put one.
• ⚠Guests get no notice — there is no way to reach them. That is a limit, not an oversight, and it is stated as one.

Reports go both ways now

• A receipt arrives, and a decision arrives. Before, a report went in and nothing came back.
• The form asks for three more things: why you say it is unlawful (required if you pick "unlawful" or "copyright"), an address to reach you at (offered, never required), and your confirmation that what you wrote is accurate as far as you know.
• If you are not signed in and leave an address, the answer is written to it by hand.

Being blocked

• A restricted account now sees why. It used to bounce silently to the sign-in page; the reason existed only on an admin screen.
• Account restrictions can be appealed too — the appeal form used to work only for connection-point blocks.
• The appeal form has a "where to reach you" field (optional). A guest's appeal previously had no possible answer: the only thing stored was a value that stops existing at midnight.

Channel moderators

• Without accepting the Code, the dashboard does not open. Only changing things was blocked before; reading was not — a moderator who had not accepted could still read other people's post titles and their stated reasons for asking a post to be moved.
• Acceptance expires after twelve months. The law asks for training at regular intervals; "whenever the Code changes" is an event, not an interval, and it would never have repeated.

Backups

• Hand-taken pre-migration copies: ninety days down to thirty. Their one purpose is undoing the change just made, and that purpose is over in days.

In the documents

• Terms tilted against you are gone — the "what you paid" liability cap (nothing, on a free site), the no-fault indemnity, the discretion to withhold a reasoned answer, the exception that let a termination go unexplained.
• The licence you grant is narrower — public posts only, with a closed list of permitted alterations.
• ⭐The right to object now stands in its own block at the top of the Privacy Policy, because inside a list it is invisible.
• Korean statutory clocks and grounds restored — ten days to answer a demand to suspend processing, refusal only on the four grounds the statute lists, thirty days for a request about an automated decision.
• ⭐The claim that you consented to sensitive material being stored is gone. Sending something after reading two clauses of the Terms is not consent, and nobody was ever asked. What actually happens is stated instead: it is stored, and if a legal claim arises it may be used to defend against that claim.
• Material about somebody else is covered: it is not sought, and it is deleted once it is known about.
• Parental-control providers are named, as the US notice requires.
• Notice of an assignment goes back to individual email.

⚠One thing is still open. Which country the off-site backup sits in cannot be determined here. The storage service offers binding country guarantees only for the European Union and the United States, and the existing bucket was created without one. Rather than name a country nobody here knows, the Policy says that it is not known, and says what has therefore not been done.

Fixed

• A copy of your own data now includes your direct messages, saved posts, lists, hidden words, reading history, and channel-level block records. Those six were missing before. They were deleted on account deletion but left out of the copy, so "everything" was not everything.

What is deliberately left out

• Messages written by the other person in a conversation, and a moderator's private note on a block, are not included: they were written by someone else, and a copy must not override other people's rights. For direct messages you get who and when, plus every message you wrote yourself.

Fixed

• After you delete your account you now see a confirmation — "Your account is deleted" — and a button back to the home page. Until now the sign-in prompt appeared straight away, leaving no sign that the deletion had actually happened.

When something cannot be undone, the result belongs on screen. The deletion itself is unchanged.

New

• Settings → Account → Delete account now lets you delete your own account. Until now you had to write to us.
• Two steps guard against a slip: you open the form, then type your display name exactly as shown before the button becomes active.

Worth knowing

• Deletion cannot be undone. Signing in again with the same account brings nothing back.
• Posts and comments you already published stay. The author name is replaced with an erased marker and the link to your account is cut. Taking a whole post down would take other people's replies with it. If you want your posts gone too, delete them before you delete the account.
• Deleted: your account details and sign-in link, the direct messages you sent, support tickets, reports and bug reports, ban appeals, reactions and follows, saved posts and lists, hidden words, and your reading history.
• About backups: a backup is a point-in-time copy, so what you delete stays inside a backup bundle until that bundle's turn comes to be removed. The longest-lived bundle is about two years. Backups are used only to restore the service after a failure and are never read to look up an individual.

Changed

• An internal review was carried out and one safeguard was strengthened.
• Nothing you see on screen changes.

Worth knowing

• This release changes nothing about how you use the site. Carry on as before.

Changed

• Continuing your own post on a short-form board now waits 15 seconds instead of 60. A continuation does not take its own place in the list — it folds into the first post of the chain — so it never needed the same wait as a new post.
• Posting a new short-form post still waits 60 seconds.

Worth knowing

• The long-post wait is still in force. A continuation that runs past the suggested length still lengthens the wait before your next post.
• You can only continue your own post, never someone else's.

Under the hood

• The donation page was rebuilt. No addresses are set, so the page does not exist yet; you will hear about it when it does.
• Two unused data tables were removed and some server-side settings were tightened.

Refined

• The language switch now appears on every notice. Previously it showed only where an English version existed, which left an English-interface reader looking at Korean with no explanation.
• Choosing English on an untranslated notice now shows the original together with one line saying it has not been translated yet.

Worth knowing

• The page is never blank. Without an English version you always get the original.

New

• A notice can now carry an English version. When one exists, a "Korean / English" switch appears above the post.
• The chosen language rides in the address, so a link you share opens in the language you were reading.
• In the list, an English interface now shows the English title.

Worth knowing

• The body decides. A post with only an English title does not count as translated — an English heading over a Korean body would misrepresent the piece.
• Choosing English on an untranslated notice never gives you a blank page: the original is shown, with one line saying it has not been translated yet.
• Body language moves independently of the interface language. You can browse in English and still read the Korean original.
• Only the notice board accepts two languages today. Nothing changes on other boards.

Refined

• One admin screen showed formatting characters in a message. They are gone.

Worth knowing

• Posts, comments and account data are untouched.
• Nothing visitors see changes.

Fixed

• One admin screen returned an error instead of opening. It has no bearing on anything visitors see.

Worth knowing

• Posts, comments and account data are untouched.
• There is no visible change.

This release

• One entry was added to the admin screens. Nothing visitors see changes.

Worth knowing

• Posts, comments and account data are untouched.
• There is no visible change.

This release

• Internal server settings were tightened. Nothing about the pages or features changes.

Worth knowing

• Posts, comments and account data are untouched.
• There is no visible change.

Improved

• The "compact / cozy" choice now applies to every reading list. It previously changed only the post list on a board. Search results, Truter, saved posts, lists, notifications and messages now follow it too.
• The choice stays on that device, and the very first frame on your next visit already uses it.

Worth knowing

• You choose it in Settings, and at the top of a board page.
• The default is "compact" — a list is somewhere you look things up, so fitting more on screen wins by default.
• Lists that are just a column of names, and the cards on the community home, do not change. There is nothing there for spacing to do.

New

• New direct messages, notifications and support replies now show as a count at the top of the page. Until now you had to open the inbox to find out.
• On narrow screens a dot appears on the "More" tab, since the account entries live inside that drawer.
• Opening the drawer or the account menu shows how many are waiting in each place.

Worth knowing

• The count is what you have not read: conversations whose latest message you have not seen, notifications you have not cleared, and support replies you have not opened.
• Above 99 it reads "99+".
• It signals with a number, not a colour, and screen readers hear the count.
• Signed out, nothing is shown and nothing is counted.

Refined

• Timestamps in the admin screens now read the way people read them. One spot still showed the machine format; it now matches everywhere else and states its time zone.
• Removed an assertion from a status message. Wording that stated something unverified as fact was replaced with a plain description of the current state.

Worth knowing

• Nothing changes on the pages visitors see.

Improved

• Backup checks now raise their hand on their own. Until now the check stopped at "the backup was created"; if the next stage was blocked, nothing on screen said so. That state is now reported, along with what is blocking it.
• One likely cause is cleared automatically each night. It is moved aside, not deleted — and anything still left afterwards is reported rather than passed over in silence.

Worth knowing

• Posts, comments and account data are unchanged. This release touches how the backup process is watched.
• Nothing changes on screen.

Improved

• Game files are now kept close to you. Until now every visit re-fetched the whole game from the origin server. A file you have already received now stays nearby, and later visits are served from there.
• Background music benefits the most. The audio is 74 MB in total, and all of it was re-fetched every time.
• A new release still arrives as a new release. Addresses that carry a version number never change their contents, so they are held for a long time; only the small file that says "which release is newest" is held briefly. An old build cannot get stuck.

Worth knowing

• Game content and your saved progress are unchanged. What changed is the route the files take.
• A first-time visit is no different. The speed-up starts from the second visit.

Fixed

• Sending an inquiry was failing. It showed "could not send" with no reason given.
• Notifications were not being created. Replies and news never reached your inbox.
• Re-applied the guarantees that display names do not collide and that a ban appeal is accepted once.

Worth knowing

• Posts, comments and account data are untouched. What was added were missing fields; nothing was removed.
• If an inquiry of yours failed to send before, sending it again will work now.
• To stop this recurring, every release now checks this automatically and stops if anything is out of step.

Fixed

• Internal system configuration was tightened. Nothing changes on screen or in how the site works.

Worth knowing

• Posts, comments and account data are unchanged by this release.

New

• Moderator oversight channel. This is where you report that a channel moderator has misused their powers. Anyone can open it from the community list.
• What you write there is read by you and the site's administrator only — not by other members, and not by the moderator concerned. The reply comes as a comment on your post, and that comment is equally unreadable to anyone else.
• Moderator lounge channel, for the site's administrator and serving channel moderators. For everyone else it does not appear in the list at all.

Worth knowing

• Report as yourself. Anonymous reports are not accepted here, because someone has to judge who is saying what.
• An empty list in the oversight channel is normal: each person sees only what they wrote, and the page says so above the list.
• The oversight channel does not show a post count — how many reports exist is itself a fact about people.
• The place that decides whether you may open a channel is now a single one. Fixing that also fixed the lounge appearing in a moderator's list but refusing to open.

New

• Lists. Group the people you want to follow closely and read only their posts. You create one from Settings → Lists.
• To add someone, open "Add to one of my lists" on their profile.
• Up to 100 people per list, and up to 20 lists per account.

Worth knowing

• The people you add are not told. No notification, no marker. What reaches the other person is a follow; a list is your own filing.
• A new list is yours alone. You can make it public, and doing so also shows who is in it — the screen says so before you switch.
• Public lists are not indexed anywhere. Only someone with the link can open one.
• A list gathers posts; it does not grant read access. If someone in it makes their account private, or their post sits in a channel you cannot read, it stays out of the list. Posts from people you have blocked stay out too.
• Deleting a list does nothing to the posts or accounts of the people who were in it.

New

• The truter timeline extends itself before you reach the end. Scroll down and the next posts attach.
• The "Load more" button is still there. If the page has not finished coming alive, or you have JavaScript turned off, that button still takes you to the next page.
• Open a post and come back, and you return to where you were — with the list still as long as you had it.
• "Recent activity" on the home page is no longer swamped by short-form posts. At most two in a row, and at most 40% of what is shown.

Worth knowing

• Extending the list does not jump you back to the top.
• On a day with nothing but short-form posts, the home page still fills up. When the rules leave room, the deferred posts fill it.
• Nothing is deleted by this. A post held back from the home page still appears in its own channel, in the usual order.

New

• Settings → Muted words lets you list words; posts containing them are folded away in your lists. Up to 100 words.
• A folded post is not deleted. The folded row says which word caused it, and you can open it.
• It applies to both community channel lists and the truter timeline, and looks at the title, the body and the tags.
• Muted words also drop out of "Trending now." A word you folded away is not offered back to you there.

Worth knowing

• The author is not told. Nothing changes on their side, and their post is not deleted.
• To cut the relationship rather than tidy your own screen, use blocking, which you do from their profile.
• A word made only of Latin letters or digits matches only when it stands as its own word. Muting "art" does not fold "participate".
• In scripts where spaces are not word boundaries — Korean, for example — a word matches wherever it appears. Muting "스포일러" also folds "스포일러입니다".
• Muted words are stored on your account, so they follow you across devices. You need to be signed in.

New

• Channel moderators can propose moving a post to another channel. A channel picker now sits at the bottom of the post.
• Proposing does not move the post. A moderator of the receiving channel has to accept it from their management screen, and they can decline.
• Incoming proposals collect on the channel management screen, showing which channel it came from, which post it is, and the reason given.
• A moved post says where it came from. Someone looking for it in the original channel would otherwise think it had been deleted.

Worth knowing

• Only the channel's lead moderator can do this; deputies cannot.
• Moving a post clears its pin. A pin is a position within one channel, not a property of the post.
• Post count, character count, views and likes shown on the channel list move with the post.
• NMT Notes posts are not moved, because a note number points at a fixed place.
• A post can be proposed to one channel at a time. Once that answer arrives, it can be proposed elsewhere.

Fixed

• Checkboxes and radio buttons no longer snap back after you submit: this affected posting (name choice, post-as-guest), the bug report form ("I would like a reply"), the game report form (two consent boxes), and note editing (the "edited" mark).
• It was most visible when the server rejected the request: you would come back to fix something and find the box you had ticked was cleared.

Worth knowing

• Nothing was ever saved or sent incorrectly. What went out always matched what you chose; only the on-screen box disagreed.
• Text fields still clear after a successful submit. That behaviour is unchanged.

Fixed

• Switching language no longer wipes what you were typing: until now, the admin channel form and the support-reply box lost their contents when you changed language, because switching is a full page navigation.
• Restored text is cleared once you send: after a successful submit the held copy is dropped, so an already-sent message never reappears later.

Worth knowing

• The copy is held inside the browser tab. Closing the tab discards it, and anything older than five minutes is not restored.
• Password-type fields are never held.

New

• "Continue" appears on your own posts: it opens what you wrote before, with room to add the next part underneath.
• Opening a post shows the whole chain in order: each part is numbered, and your name appears once.
• The list shows one entry, not three: a three-part post takes one row, marked "3 parts", and opens into the full chain.
• Opening a later part directly offers a way back to the first one.

Worth knowing

• You can only continue your own posts, and only within the same channel.
• Continuing from the second part still attaches to the first. A chain is always one level deep.
• Deleting the first post leaves the later parts in place; only the chain is broken.
• The wait between posts is unchanged. Each part waits the same as any other post.

New

• Write #something in the body and it becomes a tag: there is no separate field. What you type becomes the tag, and tapping it collects the posts carrying it.
• "Talked about now" sits above the Truter feed: the tags used over the last two days, ranked.
• The ranking counts people, not posts: writing the same tag a hundred times still counts once. A tag reaches the list once at least two people have used it.
• While a tag filter is on, the page says which tag it is and offers a way out.

Worth knowing

• Posts written from a private account, and posts written without signing in, do not count toward the ranking.
• The ranking is computed from the channels a signed-out visitor can read, so everyone sees the same list.
• A # inside a word — a colour code like fff#abc, or part of a link — is not treated as a tag.

New

• Quote a post: the control opens a page showing that post. Write a line, choose which channel it goes to, and publish.
• Your post carries the original as a small card: channel, author, and the opening lines, linking back to it. The original stays with its author.
• You can quote across channels: sharing a Truter post into a channel, or a channel post into Truter, is the same one action.
• A quoted post ranks slightly higher: one quote counts as half a member UP. Quoting the same post more than once still counts once.

Worth knowing

• You cannot quote a post you cannot read. Quoting does not hand you access.
• If the original is deleted or hidden, the card becomes one sentence: "This post cannot be shown here." We do not say what happened — saying so would let anyone work out another person's circumstances.

New

• Save a post: put a post aside and it collects under "Saved" in your account menu. The control is on the Truter list and on the post page.
• The list is yours alone: nobody sees that you saved something — not the author, not other members. The number of people who saved a post is not shown anywhere.
• If you lose access to a saved post, it leaves your list: for example when the channel closes or the author makes their account private. Saving does not stand in for permission to read.

Changed

• The character limit for posting to Truter without an account is now 300. Truter currently accepts posts from signed-in members only, so nothing changes in practice today.

New

• Messages: open a member's profile and choose "Send a message" to talk with them one to one. Text only.
• The old inbox is now two places: what people send you lives in Messages; replies to your enquiries and site notices live in Notices. Both are in the account menu at the top right.
• You choose who can write to you: in Settings → Profile, pick "Any member", "Only members you follow", or "No one". Each choice says in one line what it costs you. Replies to your enquiries and warnings still reach you regardless of this setting.
• Read marks work both ways: turn yours off and you also stop seeing whether the other person read yours. On by default.
• No messages pass between you and anyone you have blocked.
• You can hide a conversation from your own list: it stays in theirs, and it returns to yours if they write again.

Worth knowing

• When a message cannot be sent you see one sentence: "You cannot message this member right now." We do not say whether it was their settings or a block — saying so would let anyone read another person's settings.
• The page that opens a support enquiry has a new address. You reach it from Notices exactly as before.

New

• You can rate the people who look after a channel: open "View board settings" and you will see who looks after it now. Members get one vote each per person — UP or DOWN — and can change or withdraw it at any time.
• The counts are public: how many UP and DOWN each person has is visible to everyone, including signed-out visitors. Only members can vote.
• You may leave a short note with your vote, and that note is not published: it never appears on the channel, on a profile, or to other members. Where it goes and who reads it is written out on the page where you type it.
• You cannot rate yourself, and you cannot rate someone who has already stepped down.

New

• Every channel now has a management page: whoever looks after a channel can open it from "Channel management" on the channel page. It shows that channel's post count, posts today, hidden posts, and reports still waiting.
• The channel moderator can edit the description, the rules and the look: description and rules are written per language, and the look is one icon plus a grey step from 0 to 6 — drag the slider or type the number.
• Deputies see the figures only: description, rules and look belong to the moderator. A channel's permissions, limits and locks belong to no rank.
• A quiet stretch is marked: after 28 days without a single action in that channel, the list says "dormant". Nobody is removed automatically — that call is a person's.

New

• Channels can have a moderator and deputies: one moderator and up to three deputies per channel. Both ranks can hide and restore posts and comments in that channel, and pin a post to the top.
• Who looks after a channel is stated in the channel: the channel page names the people serving now with their rank, and their posts carry that rank — inside that channel only, nowhere else on the site.
• Appointments and removals are announced in the channel: they do not happen quietly; a notice post goes up. No reason is given for a removal.
• Posts can be pinned: a pinned post sits at the top of its channel under every sort order and is labelled as pinned.

What this role does not include

• Bans, permanent deletion and channel settings belong to no rank. Everything a moderator can do can be undone.
• These powers do not apply to one's own posts. Pinning or hiding your own post with your own moderator powers is blocked.
• Every action is recorded, and there is a daily limit on how many actions one person can take.

New

• Settings → Profile now has a "Private account" switch: turn it on and your Truter posts and your profile are visible only to followers you have approved. Past posts are covered too, and turning it off restores them immediately. Anything you wrote in a channel, and your comments, stay visible in that channel regardless of this setting — this is not a way to take back what you posted in public.
• On a private account, following becomes a request: pressing follow no longer connects straight away; it leaves a request. Approve or decline it under "Follow requests" in Settings → Profile. Declining is not blocking — the same person may ask again — so use blocking on their profile if you want it permanent. People who already follow you stay.
• Covered posts are not merely hidden from lists; they are not readable at all: the Truter list, search, your profile, and even a direct link all apply the same rule. To someone you have not approved, the post looks as if it never existed.

New

• Signing in now gives you an account menu at the top right: your inbox, settings and sign-out live there together. Until now they sat as separate items along the top bar, and at some window widths the right end was cut off — sign-out could be completely invisible, with no horizontal scrolling to reach it. Everything tied to your account now lives in that one menu, and the top bar carries only the links that move you around the site. Nothing changes for signed-out visitors.

Fixes

• Some dates were missing their time zone: the day a board opened, or when its first post was written, gave no indication of which zone the date belonged to. Every date now says UTC.
• A member's join date now shows only the month: the exact day did not need to be on display.
• Various admin-side screens were tidied up. Nothing on the visitor-facing pages changed because of it.

New

• The Terms of Use and the Privacy Policy now have a table of contents: the Terms run to 27 sections and the Privacy Policy to 18. Finding something like "how to delete my data" meant scrolling from the top. You can now jump straight to a section, and because each one has its own address you can point someone at a single clause.
• Times in the update list are now relative: the list reads "3 hours ago" so it is easy to scan; each release page still carries the exact time to the second in UTC.

Fixes

• The consent screen shown on your first visit was missing two sections: it carried 26 of the 27 Terms sections and 17 of the 18 Privacy sections. The two that were missing described how players connect directly to each other in a game, and the fact that your connection address is visible to the other player while that connection is being established. The Terms page and the Privacy page have carried all 27 and all 18 from the start — the same list was written out in three places and one of them had fallen behind. All three now read one list. No clause was reworded.
• The two legal pages showed two different dates at once: 20 June 2026 at the top, 9 August 2026 in the version line just below it, with no way to tell which was right. The date is now taken from the version, so the two cannot disagree.
• The update list showed a button that does not open: "View screens" points at an admin-only page, but the button was shown to everyone and did nothing when pressed.
• The version number carried two v's: four places read like "vv0.43.0".
• The contact form stated its length limit twice: once in the description and once in the counter. Only the counter remains.
• Small text was faint in NMT mode: the soft colour wash in the background shows through the cards, which makes the surface darker than the text colour had assumed. Small text has been re-picked for both the light and the dark variant. If you have saved a personal palette its colours may shift slightly — the change is there to make the text readable.

New

• There is a settings page now: light/dark, NMT mode, language and list density used to exist only as small icons in the top bar. An icon carries no name and no explanation, so you had to press one to find out what it changed. They now sit under "Settings" with a name and a one-line description each. You do not need to sign in — appearance, language and lists have nothing to do with an account.
• Search says how many results it found: "Posts · 2 found". Each kind of search returns at most 20, so a full page reads "20+ found".
• Before you search and "nothing found" are different screens: they used to look the same, so you could not tell whether the search had run.

Fixes

• Reading in Korean and clicking a search result took you to the English page: no error was raised, which is why it went unnoticed. Search results, the Truter "Load more" link and a few admin screens all did this.
• You could not see what was selected: the search scope you had chosen, the "Latest" marker on a game page, and Truter's filter and sort buttons were all drawn exactly like the unselected ones.
• Switching language dropped your search term: the term, sort and page now travel with you; only the language changes.
• Dates were locked to a Korean format: English readers got the Korean format too, and no time zone was written anywhere, so you could not tell whether a deadline was a day away or a day past. Every exact time now says "UTC".
• "How long ago" appeared as English abbreviations on some screens: Truter, comments and user pages showed 3d and 5m, while other rows in the same list already read "2 months ago".
• Korean text looked spaced out: in small labels, letter-spacing tuned for Latin capitals was applied to Hangul as well, which pulls the syllables of a word apart.
• Diagram labels on the about page were English-only: the Korean wording already existed but the page never used it.
• The address list given to search engines did not match the real addresses: English addresses were listed in a form that redirects once more, and posts and notes had no real address listed at all.

New

• The game list uses the full width: on a wide screen the cards used to be squeezed into narrow columns — names and taglines broke onto two lines while an empty slot sat unused on the right. The columns now match the number of games — at 1440px the tagline and the version line each fit on one line.
• Each game says when its latest build shipped: "Latest v0.25.1" alone could not tell you whether that build was from today or from two years ago. It now reads "Latest v0.25.1 · 2 months ago", in whichever language you are using. The game's own page carries it too.
• The game list matches the community list: instead of a border around every card, a single hairline separates them. No doubled lines, so the page reads quieter.

Fixes

• You can see the games without scrolling: the title band at the top of the games page and of each game page was tall enough to push the list itself below the fold on a wide screen. The band is shorter now, and the spacing between sections is tighter.
• The version line no longer collides with "Play": at 320px wide, "Latest v0.25.1" wrapped onto a second line and pressed against the button.
• The version number is no longer upper-cased: a game page showed "V0.25.1". A version number is its name, exactly as written.

New

• Post lists are rows, not cards: each post used to sit in a large box, so even a wide screen filled up after two posts. A list is not for reading but for finding, so more of it should fit at once. Rows are now separated by a hairline, and the same post takes half the height it did.
• You can choose how dense the list is: a "Compact · Cozy" control sits beside the sort buttons. Your choice stays on this device, and it works with JavaScript turned off.
• "How long ago" is written in your language: it used to read 73d or 5m — English abbreviations, shown even on the Korean site. It now reads "2 months ago" in whichever language you are using.

Fixes

• Zeros are no longer listed: every post carried "views 59 · UP 0 · DOWN 0 · comments 0". A zero tells you nothing and buries the real number between them. Only non-zero values are shown now. The counts inside the reaction and follow buttons stay — those are not measurements but the state of the control you are about to press.
• The same time is not printed twice: the list showed "2 months ago" and the exact timestamp side by side. The list now keeps only the relative time; the exact one appears when you open the post.
• The exact time names its time zone: a timestamp whose zone is unknown is useless to the reader. It now says "UTC".
• The sign-in button under comments is translated: it was hardcoded English.

New

• Text that was too small to read is now large enough: counting every text size in use, 591 places were below the minimum readable size — dates, labels, notices. Four different sizes were being used down there to express hierarchy, but splitting an unreadable size into four steps is not hierarchy; it is just invisible. All of them move up to the readable floor, and importance is now carried by weight and colour.
• Your own text-size setting is respected: if you have enlarged text in your browser or device, the site's text now scales with it. Spacing and boxes deliberately do not — if they scaled too, there would be no room left for the text on a narrow screen.
• Touch targets are comfortable: twenty-eight small controls were tight for a finger. They grow only on touch devices; on a mouse-driven screen they stay compact, because widening them there only bloats the toolbars.

Fixes

• Long-form lines are no longer too long: past a certain width the eye loses the start of the next line. Body text now wraps at 68 characters, with more generous line spacing.
• Reading and writing surfaces stay still: in NMT mode, article text and long input fields neither blur nor animate what is behind them.

New

• NMT mode's surfaces are glass: cards and panels are now translucent panes, with the deep-sea backdrop blurring through them. The edges carry an ice-coloured sheen that travels once around the border on hover. Nothing moved — position, size and order are untouched; only the material and the light changed.
• A palette you made yourself carries into the glass: the glass colour is not fixed. It is built from whichever palette is active, so a saved personal palette produces glass in that palette. There is nothing extra to choose.

Fixes

• Text on glass no longer depends on what passes behind it: that dependence is the standing flaw of this kind of surface. Both extremes — the lightest and the darkest thing that could sit behind — were computed, and the glass was set so text stays readable against either. Two of the faintest grey text colours go one step darker.
• Three steps down, by device and by preference: the blur is drawn by the visitor's device. Older devices get an opaque surface instead; if you have "reduce transparency" on, the surface is fully opaque. If you have "reduce motion" on, the decoration stays and only the movement stops.

New

• Pure white is gone from the light theme: the page was pure white and the cards were nearly white. What tires the eye is not the difference between text and background but the total amount of light the screen emits, and white cards were most of it. The page and the cards each drop one step, and the text goes darker to compensate — so nothing becomes harder to read, only less glaring. The greys lean very slightly cool.
• The dark theme is no longer near-black: the same reasoning in reverse, plus one more. No shadow is visible against pure black, so the screen goes flat. Cards now read as sitting above the page.
• Corner rounding is one language again: three different rounding conventions were in use on the same screen — nearly square, slightly rounded, and quite rounded, applied inconsistently. Eight step sizes became four, and a check now rejects any value outside them.

Type sizes and layout are unchanged. Nothing moved.

New

• Code is being regrouped by feature: until now the pieces of a single feature were filed by kind — screens with screens, server code with server code. Ask "where is the banner feature" and the answer was several places, which makes it easy to miss one while changing it. A feature is now one folder. Two moved this time — banners and the game hub — and a counter was attached that measures how many files are still unplaced, so the number can only go down.
• Every feature folder must state what disappears if it is deleted: a feature that cannot be described in that one sentence is not yet self-contained. Without the line, the check does not pass.

Fixes

• Internal documents were pointing at checks that did not exist: twenty-nine lines claimed "a machine enforces this" while no check by that name had ever been built. A rule that is not enforced but says it is looks exactly like a rule that passed. Documents are now checked against the list of real checks, and all twenty-nine lines were corrected.

What you see and what you can do are unchanged.

New

• The site's foundation moved to the next generation: this site leaves page rendering and address routing to one open-source framework. That framework shipped a major release, and we moved with it. What you see and what you can do are unchanged. Before switching, a second server identical to the live one was stood up on the side and checked — pages open, controls respond, text reads — and only then was the change made.
• Automated code checking, for the first time: this repository had no checker to catch the mistakes a person misses. Turning one on found two things immediately — two places where a control would drop a Korean reader onto an English page, and four places where the invisible characters used by the text filter were written in a form that a single edit could quietly break. Both are fixed.

Fixes

• Screenshot quality in the update log is preserved: the new framework silently lowers any image quality that is not declared. Update screenshots are text-heavy and need to stay sharp, so the quality in use is now pinned explicitly.
• Failures now record their cause: when the site's own "am I alive" check failed, nothing anywhere recorded why. The cause is now written to the server log. The message shown outside is unchanged.

New

• The update log is open to everyone: until now the list said "In development" to anyone not signed in. Each entry was already public and readable by anyone holding a link — but without a link there was no way to know an entry existed at all. The list now shows every published entry, expandable in place.

Fixes

• Version pages open properly: a version address contains dots (v0.37.0, for example). The site was treating any address with a dot as a file — an image or a font — and skipping its language handling. The English address for a version therefore reported that the page could not be found, and on the addresses that did open, everything interactive on the page was frozen; the screenshot viewer in particular did nothing at all. Both are fixed.
• Colours chosen in NMT mode stay readable on cards: when a personal palette was generated, the brightness difference between text and background was only checked against one surface. Text also sits on cards and inset panels, which are a different brightness. Every surface text can land on is now checked, so any colour you pick stays readable there. Palettes already saved will show slightly deeper faint text and accent buttons.

Improvements

• Faint text is easier to read: dates and secondary notes are set in a lighter grey, and on a card or panel that grey sat too close to the background to resolve. The colour was re-set in all four display modes (light, dark, NMT light, NMT dark), and it now holds a readable difference against every background it can land on.
• The broken T-mark follows the theme: it alone was drawn in a fixed grey, so switching to dark mode or NMT mode left it at the same brightness while everything around it changed. It now uses the same colour system as the rest of the interface.

Fixes

• Leaving the sign-in screen: moving on from the sign-in screen, the restriction notice, or the message box could send you to an address with no language setting attached. In rare cases that could drop a session, so it was corrected.
• Two pieces of copy were brought into the same formal register as everywhere else.

Improvements

• Internal components brought up to date: the external components the site is built from were moved to their current versions. What you see and do is unchanged.
• Versions are now fixed: until now a rebuild could pick up slightly different component versions each time. Every version is now written down exactly, so today's build is the same thing as yesterday's.

Fixes

• The failed-sign-in screen: when sign-in was interrupted partway, it landed on an English screen saying the server was misconfigured, with no way forward. It now returns to the sign-in screen with "Sign-in did not complete" and the button to try again directly beneath, and it says that nothing about the account or its posts has changed.
• Recording the cause: a failed sign-in left nothing in the record to explain what had gone wrong. The failing step and the response are now recorded, so a repeat can be pinned down immediately.

Fixes

• When the error notice itself failed: the "A temporary error occurred" notice shown when NMT Notes cannot be loaded could itself fail — and fall through to a generic error page — in the one case it exists for, when the store is not answering at all. The notice now renders in that case too.

New features

• Temporarily withholding NMT Notes: The whole of NMT Notes can now be taken off the site for a while. While it is off, the index, every note and the download show a short "A temporary error occurred" notice instead. Nothing is hidden inside the page — the writing is never read in the first place, so no title, body or number leaves the server.
• The writing stays put: Notes, their numbers, their publication times, comments and view counts are untouched throughout. Put the section back and you get exactly the state you left.
• Protecting search results: While the section is off, note addresses are dropped from the search index and from the sitemap, so the error notice cannot stand in for a note in someone's search results.

New features

• English NMT Notes: English translations are now available for all 96 currently published NMT Notes. Readers can view each note in its original Korean or in English translation.

Changes

• Note downloads: Readers can download Korean only, English only, or both languages. Every downloaded Markdown filename includes ko or en, and choosing both provides separate language files in a single ko-en archive.
• Longer titles: NMT Notes titles can now contain up to 300 characters, allowing longer titles to appear in full.
• Translation notice: The lead on NMT Notes now clearly states that Korean is the original and English is a translated version that may differ in intent or context.

New features

• Releasing a post from review: Until now there was no way to make a post visible again once the automatic check had held it for review. The hold can now be released, so the post is shown as it was and the review mark the automatic check left behind is cleared.

Fixes

• Posts that looked as if they had vanished: When the automatic check held a post for review, the post was saved, yet the screen only showed a notice that the page could not be found; it now says on the spot that the post was saved and is waiting to be checked. It also states that the post is not visible to others yet and that there is no need to submit it again.

Changes

• GitHub is now the only way to sign in: The sign-in screen used to offer GitHub and Google; the Google button is gone and GitHub is the only one left. The site signs you in through an outside account (OAuth) only, and sessions you are already signed into stay as they are.
• No account was lost: Before the change, the account records were checked and not a single account had ever been created with Google or signed in with it. No account, post, comment, or setting changed as a result.
• One fewer board restriction option: The setting that limits a board to specific sign-in providers no longer lists Google, so a board can no longer be locked to a provider nobody can sign in with. No board was using it.

Terms changes

• Terms of Use v20 and Privacy Policy v23, with Google struck out: Google has been removed from every clause that named it as a current sign-in provider or as a recipient of account information (all seven clauses themselves remain, with only the name struck: in the Terms, the clauses on eligibility and age verification, on accounts, and on the outside services the site relies on; in the Privacy Policy, the summary, the account information stored, the list of outside providers, and transfers of data outside Korea). Nothing was added, no new obligation was placed on you, and no right was taken away — one fewer outside company can receive account information and one fewer route lets data leave the country, so both documents are now shorter and narrower.
• One more acceptance: Because both documents changed, you will be asked once more to accept the current versions the next time you do something that requires acceptance. This is the usual re-acceptance step that follows any change to these documents, not a new demand.

Changes

• Protection on the forwarding addresses: The two addresses that only forward visitors to needmoretruth.com — needmoretrue.com and needmoretruths.com — now carry the same level of internal protection as the main address.

Fixes

• Addresses that would not open: www.needmoretruth.com and needmoretruths.com previously did not open at all; both now open and forward to needmoretruth.com while keeping the page written in the address along with anything attached to the end of it. For example, www.needmoretruth.com/ko/notes/12 now opens needmoretruth.com/ko/notes/12.
• A mistyped address still reaches the right page: needmoretrue.com used to drop visitors on the front page no matter which page the address pointed at; it now keeps the page written in the address, so a link shared with the misspelled address still reaches the exact post it pointed at. All three addresses behave the same way when written with www. in front.
• The notice appears again: Fixed the notice that tells a visitor who arrived at a misspelled address to use needmoretruth.com from then on, which had stopped appearing. It now names the address the visitor actually came from, and dismissing it still keeps it from coming back.

Changes

• NMT Notes menu placement: In the top menu, NMT Notes has moved inside Community — it now sits second in the list that opens when you hover over Community, directly after the Community entry itself. On phones it appears in the Community section of the More menu, and the address of the notes is unchanged, so every link shared so far still opens.
• Current location highlight: While you read NMT Notes, Community stays highlighted in the top menu (previously no menu was highlighted, making it hard to tell where you were).

New features

• All in one file: When downloading NMT Notes, choosing "All in one file" under "How to receive it" delivers a single Markdown file containing every note you selected. The notes run in serial order from top to bottom with the oldest first, and the earlier way — one file per note — remains available.

Changes

• Strengthened the internal checks behind the NMT Notes download.

Fixes

• A verification step that never appeared: Fixed the anti-automation check — the one you pass before posting, commenting, or downloading a file — appearing in some places and leaving nothing but an empty gap in others, where the notice "please complete the check above" was all you got and there was no way forward. It now appears where it belongs on panels you expand and on pages you reach while moving around the site, and the fix covers every screen that uses it, including comments, posting, support enquiries, and reports.
• Two checks on one screen: Also fixed the case where, with two anti-automation checks on one screen, restarting one of them invalidated the other.

New features

• Editing a note: An NMT Note can now be revised after publication — its title and its body. The serial, the address, the comments already on it and its reactions all stay as they are (previously the only way to change a published note was to delete it and post it again, which lost all four).
• The edited mark: A note can now carry the time it was last changed. Where that mark is present, it sits directly under the publication time, in UTC down to the second.

Changes

• Refined the internal workings of the NMT Notes section.

Changes

• Where NMT Notes lives: NMT Notes is now a top-level section of the site rather than a board inside the community, and it sits in the main menu under its own entry. Every address shared before this leads to the same note as before, so links written down elsewhere still open.

Fixes

• Publishing a note: A newly published note now appears in the list and opens at its own address right away. Very long pieces are no longer blocked from publishing.
• A button that cannot be pressed: When the button that submits a post or a comment cannot be pressed, the reason why now appears directly above it (previously it simply turned grey with no explanation). It appears in the same place and the same way in Notes and on any community channel.

New features

• NMT Notes: A space collecting NMT's writing in one place is now open in the community. Publication times are written in UTC down to the second, both in the list and on the note itself, so a reader in any country sees the same time.
• Reading order: The list opens newest first, and a large two-way switch at the top of it moves between newest first and oldest first. Smaller buttons beside that switch also order the list by likes, views, or comment count.
• A permanent number on every note: The oldest note is number 1, a number never changes once given, and the address built from that number is the note's canonical address.
• Korean / English switch: Each note carries a control for choosing the language of the article text. English renditions are written by hand, one note at a time, and none of the notes published so far has one, so choosing English leaves the Korean original on screen and adds a one-line notice that the note has not been translated yet.
• Comments: Notes accept comments, and signing in is not required. Comments written by the author are grouped at the top in chronological order, so corrections or additions made after publication are read alongside the note.
• Downloads: A single note downloads as a Markdown file, while several notes or the whole collection arrive as one compressed archive, and you choose between basic information only and everything. A check that the request is not automated runs before the download starts.

Changes

• Earlier writing gathered into Notes: Writing by NMT that was scattered across several community channels has been moved into Notes (posts in the announcement channel stay in the announcement channel). The text, publication times, comments, and reactions are unchanged, and older addresses lead to each note's new address.

Changes

• Strengthened security across the site.
• Stabilized and refined internal processing.

Fixes

• Symbols in search terms: Fixed searches containing certain symbols returning a flood of unrelated posts (symbols are now matched exactly as typed, so the results correspond to what was actually searched for).

Changes

• Improved internal stability and performance.

Terms changes

• NMB soundtrack license clarified: In the Terms covering the music that comes with NMB (the block-building game), the wording that unconditionally waived any copyright claim was changed to a reservation of rights. It now states that the music's copyright status is uncertain and that any rights that exist or may exist (including rights beyond copyright) are not waived but reserved, while keeping the existing stance that the source is credited and no authorship is claimed.
• One re-consent: Because the Terms wording changed, consent will be requested once more on your next action.

Add the NMB game to your home screen as an app and play full-screen · the installed icon always opens the latest version

Changes

• Added soundtrack terms: The Terms of Service now cover how the game's soundtrack (background music) may be used in videos, broadcasts, and similar content. A one-time re-acceptance is required.

Changes

• Faster game loading: Game files are now cached on your device, so returning visits start quickly instead of re-downloading every time.

Changes

• Promotion and recommendation banners removed: The promotion and recommendation banners that used to appear across the site — on the home, community, and NMG pages — are no longer shown. No promotion or recommendation banner now appears anywhere on the site.

Changes

• Stronger game copyright protection: Games offered in NMG (the games corner) now carry an ownership and copyright notice, and protection against other sites passing our games off as their own has been strengthened.
• Tidied copyright notices: Aligned the copyright notices across NMB (a game built from small cube blocks) and NMR (the game start screen), along with the licensing document.
• NMG game standard updated: Updated the standard document that games published to NMG must follow to its second edition.

This site update includes no visible on-screen changes (player-facing improvements ship separately within the NMB game itself).

Fixes

• Submit button guidance: In the report/suggestion panel of NMB (a game built from small cube blocks) on the NMG game page, the reason the Submit button is disabled now appears above the button. Previously, if you had not entered enough text or had not checked the consent to send information, pressing the button did nothing and looked broken; now messages such as "Please enter at least 5 characters" or "Please check the consent to send information" are shown.
• Panel no longer reopens on refresh: Fixed an issue where, after opening NMB's suggestion/report from inside the game and arriving at the site, refreshing the page kept reopening the same panel. Once opened, the panel no longer reopens on refresh.

New features

• NMB new version: Released version 0.4.10 of NMB, the game where you stack and break small cube blocks. Mobile controls now use multi-touch so you can jump, mine, and place blocks while moving, the joystick is larger, and the floating on-screen text was cleared away (you can move and act at the same time with one hand on a phone).

Fixes

• Game-corner consent check: Filled in the Terms and Privacy consent check that had been missing only in the game corner NMG, matching every other activity. Now, entering the NMG tab or going straight to an individual game page or play view shows the consent screen first if you have not agreed to the current version (nothing changes for those who already agreed, and the Terms wording itself is unchanged).

New features

• Per-version exact release time: Each NMG game's version list (NMB, NMR, and others) now shows every version's release time down to the second in UTC (previously only the date was shown; now you can see an exact time such as "2026-06-16 21:51:07 UTC").
• Per-version download size: The version list now also shows each version's download size (e.g. "12.4 MB"), so you can check the size before downloading.
• Past versions' times completed: Older versions whose exact release time was not shown before now display their true release time as well (older versions can be checked by the same standard).

Fixes

• Corrected the position of a screen element: On narrow (mobile) screens, a screen element could shift out of place and appear misaligned before its image finished drawing. It now stays within its area and reads as part of the surrounding card.

Changes

• Continued groundwork for an upcoming feature: Refined the foundational work for a feature that will be introduced later. It remains inactive, and there is no change to the current screens or how you use the site.

New features

• Groundwork for an upcoming feature: Added foundational work for a feature that will be introduced later. It is currently inactive, and there is no change to the current screens or how you use the site.

New features

• NMB top bar: NMB (a game where you stack small cube blocks) now has a slim bar at the top with a "Back to list" link (return to the game list) and a "Report a bug" link.

Changes

• NMB opens full screen: Pressing "Play" in NMB now opens it full screen at NMB's own address instead of inside a small embedded frame.
• Uses multiple cores: Thanks to this change, NMB now genuinely uses several of your device's CPU cores (the processing units of the central processor) together while you play, making the screen noticeably smoother with fewer hitches.
• Where saved worlds live: Worlds you build in NMB are now stored at NMB's own address on your device. Worlds saved before this version may not carry over.

Fixes

• NMB display issue further resolved: Fixed a remaining case where the NMB game screen did not appear in certain environments not covered by the previous version. NMB now displays correctly across a wider range of environments.

New features

• Loading guidance: While a game loads, a notice now appears at the top of the screen — you can casually enjoy NMR (a small game to play while loading) during the wait, and start it right away with a tap or click.

Fixes

• NMB display issue resolved: Fixed an issue where the voxel game NMB (a game built from small cube blocks) failed to open in some environments. It now plays correctly everywhere.

New features

• Multithreading: The voxel game NMB now uses multiple CPU cores at once to handle world generation and rendering (smoother overall with fewer hitches).
• Fullscreen support: You can now play NMB in fullscreen.
• Pause screen: Press ESC during play to bring up a pause and restart screen.

Changes

• Major rendering performance gains: NMB now draws only what is actually on screen, merges terrain into fewer shapes, and ships in a smaller size (the same scene renders faster and lighter, with smoother play and quicker loading especially on lower-end devices and phones).
• Automatic quality adjustment: View distance is adjusted automatically to match each device's performance for a stable frame rate (desktop favors quality, phones favor frame rate).

Changes

• NMG game content delivery: Improved internal handling so content in the NMG game corner updates more quickly and reliably (NMG game content updates now reach you faster).
• Polished internal processing stability overall.

Fixes

• Game screen display: Fixed an issue in the Games section where the play area could appear blank at certain screen sizes or right after a game finished loading; the game screen now displays correctly.

New features

• New NMB version: The block-building game NMB returns, rebuilt from the ground up on a new foundation. The core experience stays the same — dig, build, explore, with a day-and-night cycle and worlds saved in your browser. Opening the game now starts this new version by default, and earlier versions remain playable through the version picker.
• Mini game on the loading screen: While a larger game loads, you can play a simple one-button runner (NMR) right on the loading screen. When loading finishes, a 'Start' button appears without covering the screen so you can move on to the main game whenever you like.
• NMR loading-screen mode: A mode was added so the one-button runner NMR can also be played on the loading screen above. Playing NMR on its own works just as before.

Changes

• NMB visual refresh: Redrew NMB's (the block-building game in the Games tab) block textures, terrain colors, sky, and water in a calmer, more muted original art style, giving it a look of its own (you will see the refreshed mood the moment you open the game).

New features

• Per-game bug reporting: Every game in NMG now has a bug report button on both the intro screen and the play screen. When you report, the game, its version, the display mode (light, dark, NMT), and your device type (desktop or mobile) are attached automatically after your consent, so you do not have to write them out. No information that could identify you is sent, and more detailed diagnostic information is included only when you choose to add it.
• In-game error reporting (NMB 0.0.2): If an error happens while you are playing, you can report the bug right there along with its error code. When you try to report an older version, it also guides you to first check whether the issue is already fixed in the latest version.

Fixes

• Game launch: Fixed an issue where the game did not appear on the play screen and showed a "blocked" message instead. The game now loads and runs normally on both desktop and mobile.
• Play button: Fixed an issue where the Play button on the game detail page had invisible text. The button label is now clearly visible.

New features

• New games section: An 'NMG' entry now appears in the top menu and on the home screen, leading to a hub that lists the games at a glance. Each game has a detail page with a description, how-to-play guides for both desktop and mobile, and a version list, and it runs right in the browser with no install.
• First game 'NMB' released: Our first title is an original voxel sandbox game (built from small stackable cube blocks) about the freedom to dig, build, and create. It plays on both desktop (keyboard and mouse) and mobile (touch), with 3D visuals, automatically generated terrain, and a day–night cycle. This is still an early experimental version (0.0.1).
• World saving and file transfer: Worlds you build are saved in the browser on the device you use, and you can export them to a file and import them back to carry a world to another device and keep playing. Every released game version stays playable through a version picker.

Changes

• Blueprint screen design: The site's whole look has been rebuilt with a drafting-blueprint feel. A faint blueprint grid sits behind every screen, key areas are wrapped in framed cells with corner registration marks, and buttons, tags, and input fields now share squared-off corners (the structure of each screen reads clearly at a glance).
• Inverted bands: Some sections of a page are now laid out as bands with black and white flipped — appearing as dark areas on light screens and light areas on dark screens, most notably the page footer and the shortcut panel on the home screen. A vertical run of marking text has also been added down the left side of the home screen.
• NMT mode tie-in: In NMT mode these inverted bands and framed cells ignite in jewel tones (blending with your chosen palette colors).

New features

• NMT mode background effects: Added moving background effects to NMT mode — a cloud of light, two layers of stars that drift at different speeds as you scroll, the occasional falling meteor, light that follows the cursor, a ripple that spreads when you press the screen, and a beam near the top of the page that marks how far you have read (your chosen palette color is applied across all of these effects).
• Automatic tuning to device performance: The amount of background effect is tuned automatically to your device's performance, and turning on your device's "reduce motion" setting shows a still scene with no movement.
• A refreshed look: Large outline numbers for each section, a guide line below the first screen, and a large watermark mark at the bottom of the page were added across the default (monochrome) view to reset its overall impression.

Changes

• Tidied the screenshot set: Removed the palette screen from each version's set of update screenshots.

Fixes

• Horizontal-shift fix on phones: Fixed the screen shifting sideways on phones, which was caused by some background effects extending past the screen width.
• Uniform title weight: Unified the first-screen title so its letters no longer appear to vary in weight.

Changes

• Changelog fully public: From the changelog list (/updates) through each version's detail page, anyone can now read it without signing in. The detail pages, previously viewable only in some environments, are now open to everyone, and future updates appear on the public list as soon as they ship.

New features

• Site-wide redesign: The default grayscale (light and dark) interface has been fully replaced with a new editorial, magazine-like design. It covers every page — header, footer, home hero, community, sign-in, settings, search, changelog — and mobile too (the whole site reads clearer and is easier to scan).
• Richer NMT mode visuals: Added drifting starlight in the background, a glowing flow across heading colors, and a soft neon edge on cards (the screen feels more dimensional). Anyone who turns on "reduce motion" automatically gets a still, motion-free version.
• Reworked palette studio: Added twelve mood families — dawn, midnight neon, dusk amber, deep sea, forest, rose quartz, mono accent, cyber, aurora, desert, wine, and galaxy — plus an adjustment panel for hue, saturation, lightness, harmony rule, and mood intensity. Your adjustments are encoded into a single ten-character code, so sharing the code lets anyone reproduce the exact same look (readability is always preserved automatically, whatever the code).

Changes

• Accessibility improvements: Added a way to jump straight to the main content using the keyboard alone, and enlarged tap areas when the screen is zoomed or small, for easier use.
• Internal upkeep: Stabilized internal systems and improved performance.

Fixes

• Saved palette now applies: Fixed an issue where saving a palette did not actually change the screen (it now applies across the whole site the moment you save).

Terms changes

• Terms updated, one re-consent: Refined the consumer-protection wording and updated the Terms of Service. You will be asked to agree once more on your next visit.
