Quesiton... will there be like... a set amount of time before posting? I mean, what if someone is like, "I want to take that dare!" and they're in the middle of writing it when someone answers with a truth? What I'm suggesting is giving a minimum amount of time to wait before posting. Not a huge amount, but it takes a lot more time to write a drabble/ficlet than to answer a simple truth.

Can we get a subforum in the Spam section for like forum games and polls? Just for fun stuff. I was going to post this character game thingy but figured it might be best if there was a designated place for forum games.

I actually have more questions than suggestions, but one think I have noticed is there is no next button for threads with more than one page? Maybe I cant see right, but when I change the box from page 1, to page 2, it doesn't take me to page 2. So I have to change it manually in the URL. Also, I am wondering about the reply system, if I 'quote' someone, does that mean I'm replying to them individually? And lastly, is there a place where I can see all the codes? Such as etc? Thank you!

No, there doesn't seem to be any next buttons. If you scroll over the 'page 5 of 5' bit with your mouse, though, a little window will pop up where you can select the page you want. I'm not sure why actually typing in the page you want doesn't work. Might be a glitch in the site. If you press 'quote', you will be taken to the Reply Screen where that person's post will be copy/pasted as an actual quote. It's really there to make a specific reply to that person for clarity, but your post will show up for everyone to see. The private messaging function is how you can actually talk to someone individually. Here is a code list that mrspettyfer typed up: painted-blue.com/index.cgi?board=forumrulesfaq&action=display&thread=44It has all the main ones, but you can also check out this site: www.sitepoint.com/forums/misc.php?do=bbcodeHope that helps. ^_^ Wonderful! Thank you so much for your help! The page window does show up, however it disappears when I move my mouse to go on it. Maybe I'm not doing it right, I'll try again! Thanks for the helpful reply! I will check out the two websites you posted.

Alright, my turn. I cannot, for the life of me, figure out how to edit my old posts. There's no edit button like in other forums. Is there some special trick to it?

Hm. There should be an edit button between the quote and delete button. At least there is on mine..?

You also have to be logged in for it to work. This board used to log me out all the time without my realizing it, and and posting options disappear during those times.
