I miss the time when Coldplay were doing more melancholic songs.

Which will lead us to ruin, the things we love, or the things we hate?

The Status form logs all my recent form inputs. It's scary to think how a wrong press of the button can expose your darkest secrets..

A pretty chill guy that's active in very unusual hours. Currently working on his Bachelor's.
Open to most types of RPs, with Romance being the only genre I have an aversion towards.

The general atmosphere you project is too angsty.
6/10 for not being all that distracting.
Ether is wishing for a rare item to just drop already in a certain online game.
Is it just me or your post is filled with spacecats?

:Tropes? You mean as in the tropes in TVTropes or something?
The IC/OOC tabs is a very brilliant idea for the forums, but it can use some improvements that can improve RP experience..
- Clickable IC/OOC post counts (Often, you want to go directly to the OOC's first post to get an idea of the RP, eliminating the extra click is a good improvement).
- Give GMs the ability to prevent IC posts in their thread. (Sometimes GMs want certain things to be fully discussed/established before IC begins. As things stand right now, a random troll can take the first post in IC.)
- Expanding on the above idea, giving thread starter the ability to allow/disallow specific users from posting in IC but not OOC. (Perhaps GMs can be granted the ability to add specific users to a 'participants of this RP' list, which allows IC posting).
- Grant users the ability to hide/not load signatures in IC only. (Or perhaps OOC as well. Some people just hate flashy signatures.)
- The topic subscription system can tell apart IC and OOC, and displays such to its users. (So people can tell if the RP actually progresses or someone just made random chatter in the OOC).
I hope I'm not asking for too much.

RPers and GMs who join/start RPs only to immediately drop out has always been a major problem on RPG, some rep system to help as an early warning would be nice, even if it is abused in some cases. But a simple +1 system wouldn't help that much anyways. :P
I personally think displaying the user's post count under the avatar/profile page is a good indicator as any.
Banned for being anarchic.
^^9/10 will definitely educate the poor masses if not for the transparent background.
^6/10 you don't try to be affectionate with cats.
