: First answer: The owner of this particular site, and any of the other sites, have put this stuff together voluntarily, and out of love for the game. We all get to things when we have the time.
Had a feeling that'd be the case... hence why I posted here too, many thanks for the quick response.
: I can't think of anyone who's using that number.
Most excellant! 835 it is.
: That's up to you. A good prelude tends to make a character more interesting for the readers, but others have jumped in with the obligatory "WTF?" post and done well.
*L* I think I'll ride with the prelude approach then. Thanks.
: I think that both those areas are fairly free of storylines.
Good, though I suppose that means there's nobody nearby for me to ask for help if the need arises... that's fine though, read through the "how to do a collab" anyway, and not sure if I'd be able to pull it off without somebody getting pissed with me for going too slowly.
: Eh, the annual 'list loses it's mind' exercises. Don't sweat it.
That's slightly less than comforting, but thanks...
: It's supposedly a 'mature' forum. In this case, the word 'mature' has nothing to do with self-control of any kind. It seems to convey the meaning that polymorphous perversity, a stage Freud tells us we should leave at age 3, is the order of the day. Swear if you like.
Freud? I thought he was the one who said all that sexual psychology stuff? *L* Though I did understand that you're saying most people are around the age of 3? I'll think on that, maybe try to cut back on the swearing in my personal life, but part of my character is going to be letting it slip every once and a while, thanks though.
