Help
"Hey guys!" He piped up, "I've got a really cool and funky idea! Why not, from now until an unspecified point in the future when it begins to become tiresome; why not everybody on the board make an effort to post in 3rd person, story style!"
Zin sat back, looking at the faces of the other fair members of the board.
They'll never go for it, he thought to himself. They'll just dismiss it as a pointless waste of time, or worse, as Spam.
Zin sighed and resolved to get back to a sembelence of reality at some stage...

TheDarkDragon responds, "Well, since the vast majority of posting on the board is team stories anyway, it wouldn't be that huge of a change."
TDD begins "Zinning" his posts (only on Cythera though, don't want everyone to think I'm crazy.)

Zin grins at the creation of a new word...
"Zinning... I like it!"
Hopefully, he thinks to himself, no-one will notice the misspelling of "thought" in the subject...

Bryce walks into the topic.
Upon reading it, he decides that it is rather inane, but that he'd post here anyway...
Then he leaves.

Katerei looks up from studying for her French test tomorrow and sighs.
"Have the Cythera boards really fallen into such a state of despair that we need to do this just for people to post?"
As an afterthought, she looks at Aben Zin and says, "No offence meant, though."
She then turns to idiotSavant and queries if having a post deleted affects your post count?

Some people say I have too much time on my hands. I say their hands aren't big enough.

Odysseus turns to Kat repsonding "I'm not, sure you could ask Ty. I don't think it does affect it though."

Bryce points out that the question has been pointed out before - deleating a post effects the post count for the board, but not for the user.
