I've added some characters but since I can't view any of the stories I don't know how they're being written. Character's first person? Character third person limited? Player first person (includes reflections on the character interlaced throughout the story)? Are we allowed to put links to image renderings (or the image renderings themselves)?

Everyone does their own thing, there's no standard.

I never thought about images. Be nice if we could add those...even if it was just a small one like a forum av.

Thanks, I will look into that tomorrow afternoon when I get home :)

On that note, I have the bugtracker up and running, might be easier to use that now.

Would agree. You are not authorized to view this. If you feel this is in error, please contact the Administration. Guess I'm unauthorized to view myself and write stories? Almost feels like locking yourself from your own computer :lol:

You should be able to view your own characters stories at the moment from what I understand.


Will be working on locating the issue and fixing it. Will post back when a fix has been uploaded.

Fix posted - please report back if it doesn't work as intended :)


Secondly, you can probably see the little green blobs next to character names on the character index, those are to indicate updated stories for that character within the last week. Will be working more on that later.

Next on the list is to allow individual stories to be hidden :)

Looks good, thanks! Already seeing a few new stories up. I'll do some more writing myself when I get to a computer again. Though of course this just reminds me I've got all kinds of writing I need to catch up with in game too...

No way for you to have really known that since I haven't posted that it was available to be used.

There may be some changes to how it is used, but for the most part I intend to keep most of the formatting functionality intact.
