A Couple Questions

[RUTH IEGRIYEGA]

Hiya! This is my first time RPing in a board like this, so I hope I don't become a bother with my flompiness!

First things first, since I think this one is important...



Pretty much that. My screen resolution is 1366 x 768, and I tried scrolling aaaaalll the way down and all around and clicking everywhere. I even disabled Adblock to see if it affected anything, and it didn't.



Another question, since I didn't realize this until I finally joined the forum, haaa... Just how active is this board? The first thing that got me to join was there was enough going on in the world's plot caused by RPing, but the most recent RP post I've seen was last month, and I'm not sure what the etiquette is on responding to reviving threads here, like if they've been open for months with no responses, though it seems months between posts isn't terrible in more current RP threads.

After reading a bunch of the character sheets, it'd be shame to not be able to meet those characters after hyping myself up!

I have a few other questions too, but I think I'll cross that bridge when I get to it.

Thanks for your time!

I have no idea about the cbox o-o That's something I've never seen before, and it's not set to private or anything, so that's really confusing. I might have to look into that on the cbox's main website because yeah, wow, that's weird. ;-; I'm very sorry about that!

We're active-ish at the moment. We do have a couple of active threads, and if you look a bit closer there's one that's had a lot of activity over the past few days and one that gets a response every couple.

There are a few of us here who log in every day to check and then there are others who are more busy with life (which can happen, unfortunately) but because we try to be accommodating to our members who are busy in college and as adults, we can sometimes seem a little inactive. Never-the-less everyone who is a member here is dedicated and lovely, and even if it takes a bit longer than general for a response, their replies make you feel great. :3

I'm not an admin or anything, sooo hopefully this isn't an issue for me posting here lol, since I'm online now and stuff I thought I might try to help

Anyway about the cbox, what browser are you using? I know on Firefox you can make the screen smaller or bigger by pressing CTRL and + or - at the same time to make it larger or smaller. Idk if that'll help you?? Maybe hitting the cancel button might do something otherwise I'm not really sure. Did you try using the cbox on a different browser or computer? Cause I don't see a blank box on mine so I'm not sure hm. Some plugins might not work with c-box, but as for which I'm not sure. If you're using Chrome there's an issue with the c-box but there's a chrome fix here

As for activeness, its been sort of dead as of late. As far as I can tell there's really no real etiquette to reviving open threads that are months old, you're welcome to post in them but idk if I'd expect a response if they haven't gotten online recently. Otherwise you're free to respond to them or maybe make your own if it helps.

8'D The Chrome fix worked! Yaaayy~

And okay re: activity! Yeah, I understand that people have lives, so it's nice to know that it's not like this place isn't dead-dead or anything like that! Especially since I found the place through an ad posted two days ago on a board I'm a regular at, haha~

Thanks guys!

::rolls rolls rolls and may use this thread again because n00b-ness::

Yeah, we've just had a cleanout and an update to the thread/making things happen. We're trying to drum up some activity for our reboot-ish. x3 So if you know anyone who you think might be interested feel free to bring them along :3

Now I remembered what other questions I have! To what extent are we allowed to RP NPC's? Like, for instance, running into random trainers/Knights of Arceus grunts? Or, generating a small crowd of people for like a business or a show?

[PLATINUM BERLITZ-SILPH]

That stuff is all totally okay, NPCs are a part of life and totally allowed. :3
