Doing Rampage as a Twine game wasn't something I'd thought of, but I might consider it.  I'll have to do some research in nonexistent spare time. --[[User:Platypus|Platypus]] 20:47, 15 September 2019 (UTC)

Archived Messages

I have decided to put older messages and messages not likely to get updated in archive pages. That way I can stay ahead of additional clutter that may or may not be coming up soon --Durzan 00:07, 27 February 2019 (UTC)

Main Page

You've certainly put a good deal of effort into the new main page, and the main page did need to be de-cluttered. I am a bit hesitant about the idea of completely removing stories from the main page, though. We've tried that in the past and RobKohr requested we put a sampling of stories back. Those story links, especially the adult story links, are what drives traffic on the site. --Platypus 12:24, 26 February 2019 (UTC)

I like the latest iteration. You've done a great job it! --Platypus 20:14, 26 February 2019 (UTC)

The colored columns weren't a bad idea, but on my display, the columns were pressed up against each other, so it wasn't easy to tell one column from the other.

I only plan to keep the Main Page under protection for a few days. These kinds of vandals tend to give up in relatively short order. --Platypus 21:46, 23 August 2019 (UTC)

Collaboration

i appreciate the thought, but I do have projects of my own to work on when I find the time to do more posting here. --Platypus 21:01, 1 March 2019 (UTC)

You know, you could have asked before you did that. I'm not too annoyed but could you please ask before you rearrange my- or anybody else's- discussion page?

As for "Tales of Illnora", I'm willing to help. But do you have a theme? A mood? A genre? What's the central concept for the story? How many branching points do you have in mind?

I have to warn you, I'm a chronic procrastinator and I have college so I'll probably be very inconsistent with my contributions.

I'm not a good enough writer to do a collaboration work, regrettably. I can barely get coherence on pages which are entirely my own ideas. -- Teejay

Would it be too much trouble for you to put a page on your story for spitballing ideas for everybody working on it to see?

---Fredhot, March-3-2019.

I'll go for A and B.

---Fredhot, March-3-2019

Here is a tome that should provide you with plenty of ideas for your current story.

While I'm at it, take a look at the tomes here. Generic Universal Roleplaying System (GURPS) tends to cover a wide variety of genres so if you're looking for ideas, you should find plenty here.

Hey, you're back. Got any new ideas brewing in your head?

---Fredhot, April-30-2019.

Perhaps we could start with the rest of the dragon masters, giving them introductions, and then brainstorm on what the first mission for each dragon master will be?

---Fredhot, May-06-2019.



With the small amount of time I have, I have to put it where the inspiration or motivation is highest. The one Kirsten scene has to do for a while, I think. Unless - maybe, there is something with Will/Debra. We'll see.

Well, it seems like you're following in my footsteps. I joined CYOS with no idea what I was doing, diving headfirst into writing. Why not come back? Although I do have to warn you... I haven't been very active. --Magikarp7297, the Wild Card 23:57, 10 March 2019 (UTC)

Upaging

You may need to up the age of certain characters in your writing. Underage sex is no longer allowable on this site. A character barely out of elementary school is off limits. --Platypus 18:28, 16 June 2019 (UTC)

An immature, yet legal age character is fine. I've done a lot of up-aging through Smutty Sex Romp and Rampage, which are huge stories, and i still keep finding more that I've missed. Some of the characters now seem ridiculously immature for their stated age, but it is what it is. RobKohr sprung the new regulations on the site very abruptly, but he's also right to be concerned about possible legal ramifications. The righteous right-wingers have gone after any perceived perversions with a vengeance, acting as if thought is equivalent to deed. --Platypus 20:13, 16 June 2019 (UTC)

Apologies

Sorry for the mixup my guy. A bit of a kneejerk reaction on my part, I'll admit. I'll be sure to let you know if I'll be up for helping with some retouching/editing of other stories. --TheWatcher 02:10, 17 June 2019 (UTC)

Adopting

Adopting long-abandoned stories isn't a bad idea. If someone should wander back after leaving for several years and takes exception to the idea, we'll cross that bridge if we come to it. i doubt it's something we need to worry about.

As for locating tapdancingfish, I can't think of any way to do that beyond what you've already tried. --Platypus 22:46, 20 June 2019 (UTC)

Life of a 13 year old

Thank you for removing the story from the main page.

I'm going to have to give this story some thought. If I can come up with a way to get it in line with the current rules, I'll edit it, but I have a feeling it's going to have to go. --Platypus 21:07, 12 July 2019 (UTC)

Applying for staff

It's true that I could use the help, as I'm the last active sysop. I got the position when me and Fruitbat went to the main editthis.info page and alerted RobKohr about the attacks from the vandal organization calling themselves the Roman Empire. Getting in touch with RobKohr these days is easier said than done. --Platypus 21:27, 12 August 2019 (UTC)

I would indeed be willing to vouch for you. You've worked hard to do right by this site.

Twine

Doing Rampage as a Twine game wasn't something I'd thought of, but I might consider it. I'll have to do some research in nonexistent spare time. --Platypus 20:47, 15 September 2019 (UTC)
