I appreciate it.

Apologies if I got a bit snippy - as numerous people I know make their living via art, the subject of misappropriation and art theft is kind of a particular point that makes my armblades twitch. It does appear that our rules could stand a bit of clarification and/or elaboration if people continue asking about this particular point, however.

No worries! I was asking mostly about public Google images that can't be traced to their source and are kind of just floating out there. Or, pictures of products that the Home Depot uploads to its site, for example, and whether either of these can be altered in any way. Not necessarily art that people draw (leaving these here for future clarification).

Oh yes, that thing. I meant to temporarily lock it while dealing with a particular user's continuous grammar fails, realized the situation didn't actually warrant removing posts and... utterly forgot to unlock the thread because it was the middle of the zarking night. Thread unlocked now.

Ok, thanks

You actually put it in General Role Play rather than General Role Play Discussion, which makes it TWICE the wrong place to post it! But thanks for bringing this to my attention - thread moved. ^^

Thanks.

Oh. Okay. Contact me later if you any further info is given.

In any case you currently have two warning points that are set to expire on November 5th - and provided you don't break any other rules and receive any other warnings, you don't have much to worry about.

Okay.

That's actually not something we can do! Life happens. Sometimes a person may create a character when they had the time or focus to, and then by the time the thread starts, they are no longer in the same place they were when they created the character. Sometimes, people just forget, too - especially with all the blasted children who drift off from one RP to another when a new shiny thing comes along.

In which case, it falls to you as the thread starter to prod the person whom you're waiting for and check if they're still interested. Remind them to post. Believe me when I say that even for veteran RPers, sometimes keeping everyone on track is like herding cats.

Oh ok, thanks for responding and for the tip.

Child. Some of us have been RPing before you were even born. The fact you presume to know better than us how to RP is honestly laughable. Either way, you are entitled to have an opinion on our rules, so long as you follow them. Fail to follow them, and you will be handled like any other rule-breaker.

here's a link to her page if you don't believe me

You should have pointed that out with the posted image, complete with the link to the original artist etc. - that does indeed constitute verification the image was made for you, but without you saying so, there's no way for anyone to know that. That does clarify things ^^

You still posted in present tense, though! Make sure you read and follow the rules from now on and there'd be no further issues.

thnx for understanding! and I'll make sure to reread the rules

I'm not Stellar, but I assume a Pirate site are the ones where one eyed scallywags with hooks hang out and talk about plundering booty.

In seriousness, I assume that means a site which endorses emulators, files for videogames, APKs, and so on. Getting things for free when you usually have to pay money for them.

All of the above plus illegal unlicensed streaming sites. Aside from the fact that we cannot legally condone the sharing of such content, many of these sites are pretty dodgy. >>

Ahhh, ic ic. I'd mentioned a simulcasting site so I was wondering how it fit into Pirating despite not actually providing anything ^~^

A good rule of thumb to remember about forums is that - unlike chat rooms, which are instantaneous and very much based on rapid reactions - they're more akin to bulletin boards, where messages are posted to be seen and replied to by whomever sees them rather than whoever you're talking to at a moment.

Another thing to remember anything posted on a forum thread needs to have some kind of discussion value. A one-word post kinda... doesn't.

Reading this post, I realize that I have made a severe and continuous lapse in my judgement.

Well, possibly along the lines of spam, atleast. I'll be more careful with my posts on discussion boards in the future concerning these rule sets.

So the question is, would each person have to post the page they made on their profile, or is it possible for the author of the comic to post every page of the comic on their profile?

Collaborations are fair game - but it is preferable that whoever is doing the actual art is the one that posts it (makes it possible to link individual chapters as parts of a series), with writers and collaborators given linked credit in the image descriptions. ^^

Alright, thank you.

It's not so much of a cover as it's just the background image the website uses. At present we have no option for cover images or - to my knowledge - any plans to actually have them.

At least there is an option for changing the background. Thank you for the answer .

That is basically why I haven't changed it in years. XD Somehow, it still amuses the frell out of me, too.

Google takes pictures from various webplaces and sites, so unless its a free to use one or your using it as a profile pic, without the permission of the creator you cannot use it the same goes for Bing, I may have gotten some part wrong there but that should at least answer your question

alright thanks, was just wondering cause i know some sites have some kind of code attached to the picture, even if you find it on google or bing, you won't be able to download or save the pic to your pc, no matter what you try.

Our creative corner rules make an exception for using and editing official Pokemon art, so those are fine. ^^

I sent you a PM about this. Better than to air out the dirty laundry, so to speak, in a string of profile posts.

Having _read about_ legendaries is perfectly fine - they wouldn't be legendaries if there weren't _legends_ about them, now, would they? The problem begins when characters actually physically encountered these creatures. ^^ What happened with the character that did?

in their backstory i just simply state they saw them for like a brief moment and thats about it

Thanks! Mind you, It's old as spheres now and I haven't really had the time to develop a new one, which is why i've had the same one since... good grief, 2012 now? Time. What is.

Anyway, regarding the RP thing - I find that RPs kind of tend to do that unless all parties involved somehow remain committed and don't wander off to the next shiny new thread that pops up every three seconds.

This is part of the reason that I am very selective re: the people I RP with (and that, given the fact we are all busy people, said RPs tend to move at a phenomenally glacial pace).

Another thing I wanted to add to give a clearer scope of this Pokémon is that it's a Level 54-56 Zoroark with the boost stats at Level 58-60.

Levels mean very little in RP, to be perfectly fair. It's a fine concept for a video game, but in a story-world setting (as an RP would be) it gets a bit more ambiguous.

Okay, but if that helps you get an idea on the boost, I don't care, really.

I haven't touched my Youtube channel in a dog's age, tbh. I tend to forget I even have one XD

Lol

None that really come to mind. PMD plays fast and loose with the setting, but in general the same rules apply.

Well... that might be a problem I would have to look at, since lil’ Nucador has the potential to recover from a critical condition to basically if nothing happened. (If I do have to consider toning down his ability, then I might maybe make it so that there is a fixed cap on how much he can recover to or have a decreased mutiplier of recovered health.)

Also remember that fanmade pokemon require you to exercise common sense and should only be used in threads that either you started or where the thread starter permits the presence of fanmades.

Yep, I already knew that part. I guess I might need to maybe have the little Pokémon take it easy with his poison tanks...

Just doing my part to keep this community functional and pleasant to be in. ^^

I'm actually not sure. @Teapot ?

When looking at a work in a series, click the series name (in the middle of the bar), then there's an 'Edit' button at the top. In there, you can drag and drop the works to change their order.

Ah thanks a lot @Teapot ❤️

Okay, thank you. I will advise Teapot.

The max tag limit is pretty high – like 20 or something.

Oh, okay. Thank you.
