Hey everyone,

I'm sorry if I came off as being a wee bit rude, I didn't mean to if I did ^__^. I was just a bit bored whenever I wrote these two posts before this, and now that I'm going back on them, I feel bad for posting them in the first place. I really find this site to be interesting, and I was considering joining it a while ago... maybe a year? Months? Ack... I can never keep track of time, but anyway, I didn't join back then because no one was active, but this time around, I joined and... yeah.. here I am! I can't wait to RP with some of you... or... yeah, I can wait. I am a bit impatient, but I can wait if I have to. In the meantime I'll just send my little char around everywhere exploring... one room at a time.

Which speaking of that... I just have a little suggestion about the whole time thing. Well, you know how it says in the rules to not send your character to more than one board at a time? Well, I have grown up RPing using a thing called Fluid Time. FT is where you keep track of your posts by Time-Stamping them so where you'll be able to post on more than one board. Like for example:

John goes to the marketplace.

Well, okay, so you sent little John to the marketplace... but you know that it will take FOREVER for one of the merchants to actually reply to you, and you want to get the plot moving, so you go and post at John's house.

John goes to his house after the marketplace.

Okay, you get what I'm saying? That way, you don't have to wait for one thread to end before you start another one. Well let's just say that John needs a weapon of some sort, alright? So... John goes back into town.

John goes to the Forge after stopping by his house.

Right... well, the thing about FT is that after John gets his weapon at the forge, if you are still in the other two threads, you can not use that weapon, and you must keep track of what items you get in each thread so where you won't use an item received in a later thread in one that happened like, a few weeks before that one. It is just a kind of helpful thing that keeps things moving smoothly, and it might be something that you guys around here would like to look into. Cheers!

~Dawn
