It seems as though a lot of the new people aren't locking their characters...Are they lazy or is there something wrong?
March 2, 2009 4:09 ()
Maybe they dunno how or that they need to...
March 2, 2009 23:23 ()
I had a little test at it for Karin once you make a charactar you some how can't look it. This has happened since the login system was put on.
March 2, 2009 23:24 ()
*not look lock XD
March 3, 2009 15:28 ()
That would be bad.
March 3, 2009 19:59 ()
wow this site has changed a bit i like it
the login heading makes things easier for me too since i'm a dumbie ehhe
keep up the great work Karin

I fixed it. Turns out people could lock their character, but not log in after they locked it. I hope this hasn't driven away the people who locked their character in the last few days (I can e-mail them about it now, lol XD)
March 4, 2009 21:36 ()
=P Good job...
March 5, 2009 11:57 ()
Ah...didn't know of such a problem occuring. Good job Karin.
March 6, 2009 11:13 ()
Why didn't anyone tell me expression lookup is down? *kicks it*
March 6, 2009 12:53 ()
Never noticed. Worked fine so I guess you fixed it before I noticed. Not sure for others.
March 6, 2009 15:29 ()
Ah XS My friend was trying to do it, but I just thought it was the crappy school connection.
March 8, 2009 2:32 ()
New awesome feature on my profile!
March 8, 2009 2:37 ()
Hi, Rin :P And that feature is AWESOME.
March 8, 2009 2:42 ()
That's amazing, Rin! You're such a useful assistant.
March 8, 2009 9:55 ()
That is pretty cool.
March 8, 2009 10:24 ()
Wow! That's SO cool! *w*
*Claps Karin and Rin*
March 8, 2009 10:46 ()
Good. Now I don't have to research through everyone to find my clothes and, more importantly, background.
March 9, 2009 14:54 ()
Thanks to Wolf, Az and Chich there are some new emotes on the main page. I'll add them to the comment box once I decide which ones I'm happy with. (the dot mouth and dot eyes have been rejected before...)
March 9, 2009 20:56 ()
;w; i feel so accomplished lol
March 10, 2009 0:54 ()
i love the new update on rin
Oohh some ppl r wearing the same items as me...
but i cant figure out wat item we have in common...
March 10, 2009 0:55 ()
o nvm... its the items made by them not on them...
uhh heh... o.O
March 10, 2009 14:52 ()
Just informing you that there are new eye styles available (but I'm not telling where). Also, do you guys think the : eye emote should be added to the comment box? I already added the rest.
March 10, 2009 15:34 ()
Yah. That one is used quite a lot by people. It's also realy good for an "Uhh...." face :D
March 10, 2009 17:43 ()
Aww, I love these eyes, Karin! <3

Wiki pages are up! A wiki page is a webpage anyone can edit, so you can write together. Our wiki pages can only be edited by the authors and mods, though. Then authors can invite other authors and so on (you don't want strangers messing up your page). For now only mods can create new wiki pages, you can request them to make one for you here. Also pay attention to the option called "access", this is who can view your page and is set to authors only by default. Well, enjoy XP
March 12, 2009 2:20 ()
Very cool feature, Karin.
March 12, 2009 23:23 ()
Just a question. Why have such a page?
March 13, 2009 1:34 ()
Because for these kind of things, making tutorials or a private club or a tour-around-the-site page or joint shops, anything like that, a forum isn't really suited (the cue is when people start making mules). Wikis allow you to make a web page about anything you want without having to know about coding and with a comment box readily attached to it, rejoice!
The whole idea that a community should be based on a forum I think originates from Gaia, and because there is a free forum available (phpBB) that is adopted by most new communities out there. But this isn't a set thing, although I like having an avatar (and look, we've got those here! XP)
A site based on wiki pages is Elftown for example (they have a forum, too, but it's crappy), it's just another way to look at a site.
The only thing I made and now believe to be pretty useless are the comment boxes at the event pages, no one's ever checking back there anyway >_<'
March 13, 2009 4:29 ()
IT'S SO CUTE!
I love the banner up top.
March 13, 2009 12:01 ()
I see....
But since only authors and artists are the useful types and the like, you people go have fun with that. I'm just here for some small time company before ignoring those that annoy me.
Comment boxes in event pages are for tips. Think of it that way.
March 13, 2009 12:14 ()
Okay, well I always find your posts to be quite poetic so maybe you could be an author if you wanted.
Good question by the way, it forced me to think it over XD
March 13, 2009 12:20 ()
-coughs-
To be poetic does not mean to be always understood nor to get the passing grade in a college essay.
But...it is interesting to get a compliment from you of all people. I believed you to be the busy bee but it is nice that you spare time to however you wish. A question? Hmm...merely a spark of thought. The question you speak of is from your reflection.
Have a good night or morn'.
March 13, 2009 21:05 ()
Waltz is a bit cryptic sometimes...
The banner is aweesome, Karin, but I wonder why it isn't you up there?
March 14, 2009 0:50 ()
Where does everyone get those massive eyes o.o?
March 14, 2009 3:20 ()
You don't expand your thought bubble.
You didn't follow the rabbit, Tullym? Tsk tsk.
March 14, 2009 3:29 ()
Oh I do plenty. I just think about who I'm talking to first before talking in odd patterns. I understood what you were saying. And don't ever imply I'm stupid again.
March 14, 2009 22:49 ()
Calling yourself stupid would be your own fault this time. That's too much effort to turn someone that way so it is best left to the person to be bold about it...
March 15, 2009 2:59 ()
Who knew retrieving you guys' join dates would be so much work?
March 15, 2009 3:07 ()
I did! -flails arms- I just didn't wanna bother you with it o=o
March 15, 2009 9:35 ()
You'll find the times eventually, Karin.
March 16, 2009 8:56 ()
The new "change information" feature is nifty!
I guess it's only for retrieving personal information, neh?
March 16, 2009 10:38 ()
For some reason, I can't align the change information form right so it looks all messy. I'm asking for the information so we can have some statistics about the people who come here (like other sites), someday I want to add a birthday calendar (like other sites), and the e-mail (that gets encrypted) is only meant for password recovery, because I don't think e-mail adresses should be spammed (like some other sites assume).
March 16, 2009 13:28 ()
I think it looks fine. The links look organized now.
I see, I thought it's going to show up in profile or sort.
March 16, 2009 14:15 ()
If people wanted others to know everything, they'd write it on their profiles themselves. Maybe it will encourage them to fill out the form truthfully, too.
March 16, 2009 16:14 ()
Good thinking. Should we make bets on the gender numbers?
March 16, 2009 17:21 ()
Seeing how most people found this site through other avatar sites and the population on there is mostly female... I don't really see the need. Maybe we should ask the guys on here how we can make this place attract more guys (the guys I know irl only want to play MMORPGs)
March 16, 2009 20:33 ()
Hmm...well, most of this site is very feminine, so it's going to be very hard to attract a lot of guys...i know we don't like to, but maybe we should examine gaia to see what they do to attract guys?
March 17, 2009 0:22 ()
Doesn't that defeat being remotely creative?
March 17, 2009 0:32 ()
I think what Gaia did to attract guys is... making it into a MMORPG! XD
Hmm, I guess we could make gaming a bigger part of this site. But that doesn't mean more guys will come here. What makes you go on Gaia/this site or whatever avatar site you found first? (one would think dressing up avatars is more of a girl thing) Oh! I know something not dominated by girls: Pokemon!
And , if we really want more guys on here we should probably not just rely on other avatar sites to supply us with new users o_O
Any thoughts on making this place less girly without looking at Gaia? (they used to have a pink logo)
the login heading makes things easier for me too since i'm a dumbie ehhe
keep up the great work Karin
