This is kind of a general feedback thing. What do you guys think about this place? Any changes you'd like to suggest? etc.?

Hello!
I think this backup will be cool and stuff. But I'll kinda take me time to get use to it if we end up using it a lot

GalaxianExplosion · March 28, 2020 15:34:20

Yeah, definitely.
It's simpler to set up than DPL forums lol

It works a lot better than wikia though, in terms of loading time. The experience is pretty visual as well.

I think someone mentioned the idea of using this along the wikia. For character pages and that stuff, y'know? I think there's a character limit per post on this place. We'll see.

GalaxianExplosion · March 28, 2020 16:58:56

Wasn't that the initial plan? To have pages and signups on the wikia (and whatever possible) and supported features here?

-Galaxian-

SpecterTheGreat · March 28, 2020 16:59:58

Yeah!

I'm still unsure about the character limit on here. PMs have it set to 3,000 words (iIrc) so perhaps it's he same here?

I think it's 3000 characters on Discord if you're talking about discord, Specter

Do we have any idea on where we should put stories?

GalaxianExplosion · March 28, 2020 17:37:25

Specter meant on here.
I guess maybe the Scholastic Forums Wiki or Author's Academy.
If anything, maybe blog posts will still work. That's typically the story option.

-Galaxian-

SpecterTheGreat · March 28, 2020 17:40:06

Or perhaps pages could work as well? I'm not sure about that.

GalaxianExplosion · March 28, 2020 17:45:36

In my opinion, stories are too inconsistent to use as pages, but yes, that's an alternative.

I don't see character limits here. I'm going to test it.

I know PMs have character limits.

I posted a form of mine on my homethread. Doesn't appear to have a word/character limit here. Stories and forms should work fine. In fact, I think it easier to format here.

-Galaxian-

Time · March 28, 2020 18:25:13

Oh, ok I see, so 3000 words here, possibly?

I didn't really hear really anything about the fates of the blog posts

And what do PMs mean? Private messages here?

GalaxianExplosion · March 28, 2020 18:31:09

At least 31,113 words, which is the length of the Mamba's form, which went through without ado.
Yeah. Same.
Yes.

Time · March 28, 2020 19:09:22

oh, oops wait I didn't notice your new post Galaxian.

Oh ok then, so I guess if blog posts go bye bye, this place is good too!

I haven't pmed anyone yet, kinda wonder what it's like

SpecterTheGreat · March 28, 2020 19:11:35

Yeah, it's pretty coolio!

I'll PM you so you can get a taste of it.

GalaxianExplosion · March 28, 2020 19:13:35

You guys think Galaxian's form can go through? :3?

It's like 9 pages on Word though it's a WIP for now

-Galaxian-

GalaxianExplosion · March 28, 2020 19:14:16

Also Time > you are not from Loserville

-Galaxian-

SpecterTheGreat · March 28, 2020 19:17:28

Smh gotta agree with Galaxian there
_____________________________________

Anyways, if these forums are similar to the WoF and the other one I have been in, it shouldn't have either a character limit per post or post limit per thread. And without lag! So :D

Time · March 28, 2020 20:50:51

Nah I know the truth, don't worry it's fine

I guess you can try posting Galaxian's form if it's longer than The Mamba's

GalaxianExplosion · March 28, 2020 21:16:22

tImE
Lol. Not here obviously, I'll just put it at Spam Central----I mean my homethread

-Galaxian-

Time · March 29, 2020 02:11:47

Oh, okie then

xenon · April 18, 2020 18:45:41

hey guys, this place seems p cool and definitely a nice backup

xenon · April 18, 2020 18:51:55

question though, uploading art? how will that work? since this place doesn't store images like the wiki does would we just upload to wiki and link here or....

GalaxianExplosion · April 18, 2020 18:53:42

The way you said is correct.

-Galaxian-

SpecterTheGreat · April 18, 2020 19:32:26

Yep! That's an easy way to do it.
