SPECIAL NOTICE
Malicious code was found on the site, which has been removed, but would have been able to access files and the database, revealing email addresses, posts, and encoded passwords (which would need to be decoded). However, there is no direct evidence that any such activity occurred. REGARDLESS, BE SURE TO CHANGE YOUR PASSWORDS. And as is good practice, remember to never use the same password on more than one site. While performing housekeeping, we also decided to upgrade the forums.
This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

This is certainly nothing to be bent out of shape about.

It's all good, everybody.  :D

Troll thinks this little might actual have good idea.

I think both ideas have a lot of merit.

And for those  , "complaining" about the postcount of Game-masters ; Easy fix : GMs and players both use an Alt for their PBP-game.
So : No postcount-surge because of PBP.

Not that I mind : I'm not my postcount. Are you?

Excellent ideas.  I'd also allow signatures for alt-IDs for PbEM in case they want to anontate something consistently, like current hits, ongoing bonuses or buffs, or even link back to their character sheet if a PbEM thread gets cluttered.
 

Reefer Madness

very good Ideas, Give the gm and players special accounts that have everything turned on, avatars for character pics, sigs for different information such as description or other important info....

I would aslo give the GM's mod status for their game sections...
