True, @Mahz... No single definition is perfect. Perhaps we should just have the "fantasy" label until the time of multiple labels (like high fantasy, low fantasy, modern fantasy, etc.) are established? Some would say high fantasy is basically a tolkienesque world with magic, elves, dwarves, orcs. Others might say its something with high magic content. Others yet might simply say its a fictional world with the presence (or lack of) magic being irrelevant. We can't say which is right. Probably because all of them can be. Perhaps the goal should be the one that is general enough to fit the most? Could this one work? High fantasy: A fictional world typically involving magic, often including non-human species like elves, dwarves & orcs. Might also involve a good-vs.-evil conflict.

Nice tags. Not entirely sure on the description for the high fantasy tag. Not all high fantasy is about defeating some great evil. Might be better to have its description be based around the magical content, which is usually fairly significant in high fantasy.

When explaining an action sequence

When we want to write a long battle sequence, we usually do it as a collab. Much easier to get the action / reaction pattern a fight should have.

Looking forward to seeing the coGM system. It'll fit perfectly into an rp we got planned.

Friends list

Integrating IRC would be better. Might even help remove the horror that is the mibbit client. But not sure how well that can be coded to cooperate with external IRC clients...

Yes. Animated Gif images can be annoying. Much better to have rotation systems like we use. Which we should probably update sometime. The images stem from a long-dead RP character.

The Relics

We ain't lettin' it die.

Last we checked, scrolling down on signature is possible now. Or at least it was two minutes ago.

Don't forget to have hard and soft Sci-fi. Those are fairly major differences. Also: Vampire Werewolf Historic Alternate history Anime Canon non-canon newbie-friendly Elitist (not sure anyone would use this one, though)

hmm... Integrating it into the tags system is a good idea.
