A chatbox is something I can look into if a good number of people feel there is benefit and it doesn't take away from the clean style of the forum.

A chat box would have to be monitored often enough.
If that bothers noone then go for it.

I'm not really a chatbox user, as really, there's no moderation really allowed in one, and the thing I like about this place is that it's not a bunch of kids jsut swearing and insulting each other, which is what I've seen most chatboxes degrade into.

Valid point on the moderation. Never crossed my mind. The forum needs almost no moderation with the members we currently have. In future however... You never know.

If anyone has more input, I'd like to hear it.

I think we could use a (sub) forum for actual hobby tips and how-to's, such as:
- painting tips
- paints and other painting materials
- sculpting tips/tools
- papercraft
- post your home-made stuff
- ...

Something to collect all the hobby tips. I feel they're scattered around a bit now.
Check out my YouTube channel Boardgame Heaven, and drop me a sub please!

A+ suggestion. Just need to make that for those that have simply too much skill share it with others. Must find some way to make them share that skill with the lowly noob such as myself.

I have to nominate Seb

Reminder for drathe for this last suggestion above.


Also: since we have :skull: :blackshield: :whiteshield: , I'd also like to have a small red die (just the 6 will do), a small red heart, a small grey heart, and a small blue orb + small grey orb.
We can use this for body and mind and movement points in out character sheet tables!

I'd like to know how to space the table evenly though, and sometimes BBcode gets messed up (like bold[b] code and such.)
Also some icons aren't shown properly ( :wizard: ), and I need to add a space everytime I edit or quote a post.
Maybe you can devise a standard character sheet code we can all copy paste. With better Inn-colours too.

:wizard: [b]Eddy Wizzard BOLD damnit! :wizard: <- annoying
Attack: 1 :skull: Defend: 3 :whiteshield: :whiteshield: :whiteshield: Move: 2
Mind: 6/6 Body: 2/4 ***
Inventory: NA staff (1), EU bracers(+1), dagger x1 - -
Spellbook (x=cast; o=available) - -
Fire Water Air
[o] Courage [x] Water of Healing [o] Genie
[x] Fire of Wrath [o] Veil of Mist [x] Swift Wind
[o] Ball of Flame [o] Sleep [o] Tempest
