What are the forums?
The forums are a wonderful place to begin your NaNo adventure. After you’ve signed up, feel free to look around and join in on the discussions on these message boards. On the forums, you’ll find just about any topic you can think of—from plot ideas to regional word wars to dangerously addictive games of procrastination. For an overview of the forums, check out Cybele’s Guide to the Forums.
What do I do if I see something bad in the forums?
If you see something in any forum that you think violates the Terms & Conditions of the site in any way, please flag that post using the “Report” button and a moderator will look into it.
Where is the post I made in the forums?
One of several things might be at work here.
1) Your post is there, but has not refreshed yet. We have a 15 minute site cache to reduce server strain, so wait a while and see if it comes up.
2) Your post was moved. We frequently move threads to more appropriate forums (for example a question about character motivations would be more appropriate in Plot Doctoring than Character and Plot Realism. Some threads may violate our guidelines, or may have comments that violate our guidelines, and we may move it to an administrative forum for review.
You may contact the forums moderator if you have looked in your subscriptions, the forums, or other forums it might be, and can’t find it.
Can I use widgets in my signature?
No, they’re designed for use off-site. When they’re included in your signature, they’re loaded way too often, which can be a drain on our overworked and underpaid servers. If you do use them in your signature, a moderator may remove them.
You’re absolutely welcome to use them in your blog, your webpage, or even your email!
