Something Something Standard Post Format!
Basically It Looks Like This!
[fieldbox= Character_Name, white, solid]
[ Month, Day , Time Of Day / Location, SubLocation ]
POST_CONTENT
IMPORTANT_STUFF
@_PCMentions
[/fieldbox]
- Fieldbox - Enclose Your Posts in A fieldbox. This is important as fieldboxes can also denote changes in scenes, or in the GMs case, different scenes occuring at the same time.
- Cut Out - A cut in of your character's image so people don't forget what you look like. You Recieved this when you got your character confirmed.
- Date, Time, Location - Used to make it clear the where and when of your post is clear. Be sure to be careful not to time travel by accidently copying the wrong dates/times (I'm guilty of this too).
- Post Content - Everything else in your post that's IC related.
- IMPRTANT STUFF UNDERLINED - Ic stuff that you do that you want to draw attention to should be underlined. This can let the others know how you want the conversation/scene to go, or just be used to make sure attention is paid to something. Use sparingly.
- @_PCMentions - Mentions are used to let players you intereact with know that they're being interacted with in your post. Please use this since scenes get hectic fast.
This Post Format is something Ehb is very form about everyone using. Please don't make Ehb come up with a punishment for not using it, as it really is helpful in making posts easy to read, I think!
Compiling Collab Posts
Compiling a Collab post such as a Private Action or a Regular Collab should look like so!
[fieldbox= Collab_Title - Character_Name1 and Character_Name2, white, solid]
[ Month, Day , Time Of Day / Location, SubLocation ]
POST_CONTENT1
POST_CONTENT2
And so on...
@_PCMentions (If Applicable, or just players involved)

Differences from Regular Posts:
- Fieldbox should give a collab title and/or characters involved.
- Post all eye cut ins for involved characters towards the top.
- Each participants post should be divided by a line break for clarity.
- TIP: If the collab is big, consider putting it inside of a spoiler for tidiness reasons, especially if you post it in the same post as your IC post.
- TIP: If you want to preserve formatting and text colors when compiling the collab. Hit 'reply' on the post you want to copy. It'll preserve all that stuff, and is a bit easier than re-coloring everything!
