Like I said, just curious. |
For me, I would get timed-out when I tried to bring up the forum; I even called Spiritsilver to see if it was happening to her because sometimes things just act differently on dial-up versus dsl...and I happen to have the aging dial up (but that's another topic)...but she too was instantly timed out.
But now it loaded up for me *yay-doing happy dance* _________________ "L'elamshin D'lil Ilythiiri Zhah Ulu Har'luth Jal !"

Man. I hate it when that happens! Thankfully, the net at the campus doesn't act crazy from time to time (unless it's the wi-fi in the Union or Library)
Anyway, I have an idea for something to make the forum have a little more activity. This is going on in another forum I'm a part of and it's become INCREDIBLY active. It is a 'character chat.' It is where characters we've come up with get together and talk with one another. In a sense, it's RPing, but it's a lot more lax.
For example, I would throw in one or two of my Drow characters and they'd chat with other Drow characters about... well, anything. We would have to be careful though as knowing the species they would be quite eager to kill each other!
So, if there is any interest in that, I'll go ahead and make the thread somewhere on here (Either the general discussion part or RP section) and we'll get started. It's nothing too serious, but would have at least something.
So, any takers? _________________ "You can run, but you'll only die tired!"

That sounds cute. Go for it.
Heres who might show up: Zin, C'liss. Stick might but he has the attention span of a gnat. Zav&Skunk prolly won't & Xellian isnt very social. Ashe might but while shes not a dark elf she's the next thing to unseelie (just like her uncle). And yes this is advance warning on the colours they'll be showing up in.
zin=yellow, zav=orange, cliss=darkgreen, stick=thistle, skunk=midnightblue, xellian=maroon, ashe=purple, greedy=gray _________________ Johann Black,

Awesome!
I'll make it in the RP section, and have the guidelines too. Anyone can jump in or out. The only special rule is these characters will have to be Drow, to stick with the nature of the forum. _________________ "You can run, but you'll only die tired!"

Its old school internet from the days before cable, wireless & DSL.
You "dial up" a telephone line with a modem. It's slow, unreliable and generally annoying- but it'll get you online.

Don't knock dial-up too badly. For me it was really reliable. Slow but constant with everything!  _________________ "You can run, but you'll only die tired!"

ROFL! I had dial-up until just a couple years ago. Then I moved into civilization and aquired DSL. much nicer + I don't have to deal with the arcane rituals my old computer needed to recive the wonders of Intarwebz.  _________________ Johann Black,

DSL has been nothing but a pain for me. It disconnects randomly for one thing! _________________ "You can run, but you'll only die tired!"

::Chuckles:: You sure you got the phone-jack filter plugs installed properly? My dad didn't put them on his and had an awful time of it until I reminded him.
PS: I think we need more people in the charrie chat. I'm stuck. _________________ Johann Black,

Yeah, we do need more on the character chat thread. I think the big problem with it is we're really the only two active members of the forum!
And if you want, you can introduce more than one of your characters there. Heck, bring all of 'em if you feel like it!  _________________ "You can run, but you'll only die tired!"
