This is a place for members to clear up any unsurities of Atrox's annoucements, as I am sure he wouldn't want you posting where his announcements go...
Up first! I just read the rules over again. You said linking from place to place when moving between threads was a good idea. Is what I do with Austin okay? (Next post in/last post in).

It is okay, but it was the intention that you would actually link to the posts before and after when you switch locations in Delmor. It makes your story much easier to follow not only for everyone else in the roleplay and everyone you are directly interacting with, but also for you should you find a desire to reference old posts or need clarification on exact dialogue when talking to another player. It's often harder than one thinks to find some of your old posts ("well, i thought my character said such and such to so and so on page X of thread Z.... What happened? Where was it really?). It just generally gives you a more definate way of finding your own posts and following your own characters story and development when trying to decide future actions (the biggest indicator of the future is the past!).
Anyway, if it works for you, I guess it's alright, but I know i would personally prefer actual links. There is a brochure in the OOC roleplay discussion that tell syou how to do this if you are feeling left in the dark.

No matter. I have learned how to link! The thing is, I can link to pages, not specific posts. As soon as I learn that I can link together Austin's story.

Linking individual posts:
You know how when you look at your posts there are three-4 buttons at the top? (Edit, Quote, X, report)
Hit the edit button, don't do anything to the post, and hit "submit". When the page in the thread loads, it will have a post-specific link. This is what you use to link specific posts to others. I'll show you in screen shots if you still have questions.

I'm afraid I found no such post-specific link button.

it isn't a button.
When you're done editing, click submit, and then copy the adress in your adress bar. that will be post specific.

I feel so very stupid! I pressed submit. The thing that said, "Your message has been submitted," came up. I copied that into a link. I clicked the link and some Invalid input or something of the sort came up...

Well, now I have, so hopefully this will finally work! See MU's post in Greenacres Park. YES! It worked! I have created a machine solely based on words, sending you through a trip touring the threads of the GGN to wind up at MU's intriguing first post in Project: Abnormality! I shall now be known as the Wizard of Greenacres Park! cool cool
