Does anyone else think we should add whether we are a "he" or a "she" in our ocupations list? I've gotten it wrong twice today, and it seems Farael is more of a ladie's name than what I thought but it gets a little confusing sometimes.....

I agree Farael. I was hoping you were kind of hot, but I guess you aren't my type.

I'm sorry! I'm so so sorry. I was running on another deadline time (from about three games ago ). I got on here thinking, wonderful another two hours to make my mind up, and then what do I find but a final post! My apologies. I'll get my timings right from now on - if I'm still alive.

ARRGH, can anyone tell me how to do a reply with a quote without having the whole post in my response. And I agree too, we should put what sex we are with our occupation or as we post.

The way I usually quote someone, or partially quote them, is by clicking on the post reply button. This brings up your text window. Scroll down and you'll see a review of the last forty posts in the thread. (if the one you want is farther, you'll have to click on the 'review entire thread' link.) Simply find the part you want to quote, copy and paste it into your text window, then highlight it all with your mouse. In the row of icons at the top of your text window, the last one is 'quote'. With your text highlighted, push that button and it will wrap the text in quote tags (they'll look like [quote]text[\quote ]). The text will then be displayed as a quote.

If you want to put the person's name at the top of the quote, simply type '=' after the first quote tag then put the user's name. ([quote=user's name])

OR

push the quote button in the person's post you want to quote, then simply delete the portion you don't want. This will leave the part you want to quote, along with the quote tags and the user's name already in place.

Hope that helps.

Hey I just wantet to let you know that I will not post until about 5 hours before deadline. The reason I don't post now is that it is 3:25 AM and I really doubt that my brain is able to prouce any thoughts that might be of any use.

In conclution: I am going to bed now and when I have finished doing important stuff tomorrow I will post. (and it is going to be brilliant)
