Hey, everybody! I've just made a website called Paragon's dungeon! This website is dedicated to all things FF and Legends too! Can anyone send me ideas and avatars to put on this site? Please post them here.
PS: fab, can I use your rules to help with my forum?
Awesome! I'm an admin!
Tell me how the forum works, please and how to set custom title post counts!

fab, can I use your rules to help with my forum? LOL - Hey fab, this may become a regular thing, so you may want to put an addition on "rules" post about this ^_^ Anyways, I'm willing to sign up at the website... Can't guarantee I'll be in much, seeing how I'm involved in 2 forums already... EDIT: Uh...what's the URL?

Okay, so you don't know how to run the boards (and instead of just reading the FAQ ask other people to take the time to explain it to you), you have no avatars, no ideas of what boards to put up, and no rules system. Frankly, this doesn't sound very complete.

The URL is: paragon2.proboards45.comThe spot of Global Moderator/advisor is open! I'd also like some avatar recommendations.

Well, you have to start somewhere… and he was asking for help starting his site, not advertising (If he was advertising, I’d see your point about not having any avatars and the such). You probably should read the FAQ though… knowing how your forum works is part of being an Admin. Also, it won’t be easy, especially if you get any Allys or Fades… Moving on, you can get FF avatars here www.avatarity.com/category/28/They have some good ones. They aren’t all good, but still. And Hotlinking is BAD. You’ll have to host them somewhere to use them so… www.egs-avatars.com/e_gs_images/jeux/ff7/index.phpAnother site. They have some nice avatars, just remember not to hotlink. Finding MML avatars is going to be a bit harder. Most of fab’s look like they were made using screenshots and some editing here and there, so you could always try and ask him if he will allow you to use some. As for rules, you can, if I remember, use them as a template but you have to write them in your own words. You can’t just copy and past. As for the site… well, change the color scheme for one thing. It reminds me too much of the Outcast Alliance. If you don’t know what I’m talking about, good. It all has to do with Damage128… But moving on, once that’s done you might want to add some more content aside from a welcoming area. Most people will join a forum if it interest them, but if all they see is an “Introduce yourself here” thingy then they’ll pass it by. If it’s going to be FF centered, then make a section for each game where you can discuss it. That way you might catch some hapless fan’s interests. Other than that, there isn’t anything else for me to say, so I’ll shut up now…

GustaffGlyde, would you like the part of Global Moderator 2 (Omega WEAPON) and co-advisor? We could really use it.

Paragon, i just want to say one thing. Proboards is not the only choice you have. there is free add-free phpbb hosting over at cjb.net.
They have few differences, some which will make it harder and easier. I think you should keep what you have. theres not much difference except that ad at the top.
Justing letting you know.

Hey Paragon, I joined, but could you get me a password? I had the same problem when I joined MMLS and fab had to eventually just go into my account and give me a password. That e-mail never did come...

BTW, my name over there is MegaBuster. (I'll change it to Buster Cannon) It's where it says newest member on the bottom of the front page.

Can ya log on yet? *clears throat, calls Omega Weapon over, and gives him instructions* Anyway, rule number 1, "The first and most obvious," is up.
fab (and the mods), would you like to help keep order in my forum? (once it's up) Anyway, the fact that most of the boards are going to be FF is only because there are so many FF games... (darn it, Capcom doesn't want Legends because they're making SO much money with other games) Anyway, my rank as admin matches my name. Also, I've got a neat avatar text for banned members, if there unfortunately have to be some once the forum's up, the new avatar text for banned members will be "Eaten by a Drake."

Your website is going good so far. Now I know how it feels to be a moderator. Anyway, I'll try to help as much as I can. I have a friend who like Final fantasy games, I'll see if he's interested.

It's no secret! Mods have control over posts and topics. admins own the board and control where topics go and the avatars, and alot of stuff.
