I've noticed from your edits of the pages I've added, I've been letting some words in the past tense through (had/was being the primary offenders)My apologies, for this wasn't my intention.  I've been trying to stick to present tense, I guess some words are just far easier for me to miss.  I'll try to ensure all future pages (and current) pages are kept in (changed to) the present tense.  Thanks for the corrections you've made, I probably wouldn't have noticed it otherwise.  As well, thanks for changing the colour of the text on that one page, I was wondering how I could do that.  :]  -- [[User:Katrex|Katrex]]

'''EDIT''':
 +
Hey, there is something I would like you to do on my High School story. the link is here: *[["Um, well I thought we were going to....Well....You know....Do it...." you say nervously and embarassed.]] It's the ONLY thing (so far) that I would like you to do on goth. I chose you, because you're incredibly descriptive, you're good at writing all the sex and stuff, and you're pretty much one of the only trustworthy people on here. You can also edit any other page that branches off of that little page(if you know what I mean; I'm not good at explaining). I think it would be pretty cool if you used one of the props already in equipment. (it's in '''''Bold Italic''''') And weird stuff could happen, like their eyeliner, or their lipstick smears and ''stuff''. And if you want, Allison can use anything she has in her room (Use your imagination ;) ). And If it wouldn't bother you, you could do both points of view, from Jace's and Allison's point of view. It'll also show you what's already in her inventory. (Allison's point of view:*[["Um, well I thought we were going to....Well....You know....Do it...." Jace asks nervously.]])Please, if you get this, leave me a comment on my discussions page.

I have started a [[Tutorial]].  If you want to give me a couple days, I can finish most of the pages myself (except for the video embedding.  I'm not even sure that's possible.  I heard someone talk about it in a story though.), but there may be some topics I've overlooked.  If there are, would you please add them?  Would you also make sure the info I included is accurate?  Lastly, I'm not really sure where the appropriate place to put it would be.  Right now it's residing in the G stories section.  Maybe you can find a good place for it. --[[User:Rawar|Rawar]] 22:46, 28 October 2009 (PDT)

Having unique templates for stories delivers both advantages... both there's nothing wrong with categorizing the pages as well, if you really want to do all that work. --[[User:Platypus|Platypus]] 12:49, 15 March 2007 (EST)
 
-
Thanks. I don't really mind the work, because, for the most part, adding a category to the template will add each page to that category to. Personally, I think it'll also help to organize the wiki a bit, so that we don't just have pages with names that are meaningless without the rest of the story. But that's just me. — [[User:LastUserNameEver|LastUserNameEver]] 21:55, 15 March 2007 (EST)

Hi Platypus,

You have been a great user on the system and I have given you sysop rights. This means that you can block users that are vandals on the system. If you would like to look up a user's IP address go to the Control Panel and use the tool there. Then go to special pages to go to the block IP form. Please use this feature sparingly. Blocks should only be used for users that are trying to destroy the site and not to censor content.

Thanks for hooking up the Rabbit Hole! I've started some of the basic begginnings of it, and will be working on it a ton over the weekend. Feel free to correct my spelling, make it funnier, add new things, whatever. After this weekend, when I'm happy with it, I'm going to start advertising it amongst my regular Discordian channels, and inviting everyone to play along. My hope is that someday it has more pages than the Smutty Sex thingy.. [[User:Olboyfloats|Olboyfloats]]
