So a bit of bad news. I broke my wrist in a bike incident so I'll have a bit of trouble posting for a while. I'll try to post if I can but since I only can use one arm it will be hard but I won't let that stop me!

Ow. Never a fun injury.

So the Captain's speech might now be a shorter one? :)

Ouch! Not fun!
I broke my thumb once. Good thing was I didn't have to wash the dishes for a whole month! :P
I hope that heals really fast for you!

I just wanted to make a friendly reminder that I will be having surgery today. The next three days I won't be able to leave my bed which means posting will not be possible (sorry, my phone doesn't work with the forums). I will try to make a post for Applegate and Steelhaven if and when I can. Sorry for the sudden disappearance.

I hope it all goes well for you!
We'll look forward to (hopefully) seeing you again three days hence!

Safer than bugging Serence. See that tail bandage? That's the lingering representation of what she did to the last bug she had...

Aw. Well, best of luck sorting that out, Serence!

Just an update from Drake:
He's out of surgery and in pain but he'll be fine in a few days. :)

Speaking of surgery, my uncle just had a back surgery for his scoliosis. They added a sort of metal cage around his spine to try and keep it straight. It was a success, but painkillers aren't working for him :/ so he has to tough out the pain.

Re: Roleplaying Forums Main Out-Of-Character Thread

I can sympathize. None of the painkillers they gave me work for my arm. Combine that with the cast blocking any movement that would let me do anything useful, and you've got a recipe for me having a massive rage fit.

I broke my thumb once and had it in a cast for a month so I know how that is, Lego. The worst part was that the day after I broke it my family went camping at the beach for 2 weeks and I had to sit in the sand and watch them swimming. :P

Drake is doing better today. He can sit up for an hour without it being too painful now. He hopes to be able to post again in the next day or so. :)

I'm unsure when I'll be able to post next. my parents are spending the weekend at the beach near my school, and I'm unsure if I'll be spending it with them like last year or if we're just meeting up for dinner. If it's the latter I'll be able to post tomorrow night, if the former I might not be able to post until Sunday.

Hypothetical question.

If there were a walking dead rp, who would be interested enough to join?

Re: Roleplaying Forums Main Out-Of-Character Thread

The walking dead as in like the TV show?

It'd be an interesting concept, but I don't think an RP centered around zombies, gore and killing things would be appropriate for this forum.

Agreed. Maybe somewhere else, but not here. Though it would be cool to shoot a zombie in the face with a crossbow.

I too have a Skype, unfortunately it is on my phone atm so I wouldn't participate yet.

I agree that it would be pushing the ratings too much and wouldn't work as a RP. Sorry, MrNeon.

Also guys, please remember that using the forums to organise something that is against forum rules or ratings is also against forum rules and that includes doing it via PM and skype.

Hmmmmmmmm.......... Shoot, now I really want to do this, but I'm not sure how we could organize it. Can we pm our emails to each other, so we can continue it there?

Re: Roleplaying Forums Main Out-Of-Character Thread

Posted: Fri Sep 05, 2014 9:35 pm
by Hlaoroo
Sorry, but that would still count as using the forums to organise it.
Sharing emails for other purposes like keeping in contact is fine but if it's done just to get around the forum rules then it still counts as breaking said rules. Sorry.

Re: Roleplaying Forums Main Out-Of-Character Thread

How is organizing using the forum to share emails circumventing the rules? I mean I get it if we were going to keep tabs using the pm system, but it'd be for sharing emails. I just don't understand.
Please understand I'm not trying to ask this in any sort of annoyed fashion, just for clarification, also to see if I'm misunderstanding you. :3

Re: Roleplaying Forums Main Out-Of-Character Thread

No, that's okay. I understand. I always appreciate people seeking clarification rather than making a mistake purely through not understanding.

Sharing your email address or skype details just so that you can use them to do something that is against forum rules is still considered using the forums to break those rules. Sharing emails in and of itself is fine, however, as is sharing skype details. Many of us have done it and it's harmless and a great way to keep in contact when we're away from the forums.

For reference, these are the rules we're talking about:
Dissension wrote:
  • You may not use the private message system to evade the forum rules.
  • Your account may be suspended over ... any attempt to use the board as recruitment for any illegal or other activity against the rules of this forum, ..., even if the activity was private or did not occur on the forum itself.

I hope this helps clear things up. If not, feel free to PM me to discuss it further, or create a thread or post about it in the Rules and Moderator Discussion forum.

No worries. Glad I could help. :)

For the record, no one is in trouble at the moment. For now, this was just a friendly reminder of that rule. Sorry to have had to use you guys as an example. ;)
