Q. What are the rules of this forum?
A. There are only two rules.
1. No personal flaming that goes too far
2. All NSFW content should be labeled NSFW - people read this at work.

Q. How do I know if I went too far flaming someone?
A. The flamee will tell you so. Most of us can take a good natured, or even a non-good natured ribbing. If someone tells you you went too far, you probably went off the very deep end and need a time out.

Q. Where do I get a special title?
A. PM Larian

Q. Where are you guys located, what do you look like?
A. Larian set up a frappr site for all of this. Feel free to check it out! at http://www.frappr.com/beyondtheveil Sign up and let us know where you're from!

Q. I have a funny joke I got in e-mail and want to post it, but I don't want to spam the board, is there a place I can put it without annoying anyone?
A. Sure! Post it in this thread: http://larianlequella.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=20&sid=e7dd2e0622096fa204ca1968045b041d It used to be a sticky, but it was nearly impossible to tell when a new joke was posted, (Unless you always checked the date on the sticky) and the thread was largely ignored. Post it there and it'll bump up to the top.

Q. How do you guys know each other? Some sort of cult or something?
A. Well, most of us started playing Dark Ages of Camelot MMORPG together on the Guinevere server. We would post in the IGN forums, but found that we were getting banned a lot for our language and political stances. So we had an ezBoard called "Beyond the Veil". The reason we're here now is because the Board moderator, and a couple of posters here got in a very personal flame war, causing the board owner to just shut it down out of anger, fear, and disgust. What you have left are a group of people that tolerate each other, have thick skin, and like to discuss events happening in the world.

Q. You guys are so smart! Where do you get your news?
A. Here we go:

Q. I want to e-mail something to someone here. How do I do that?
A. Get the e-mail that they posted on the frappr site.

Q. But the one there isn't valid!
A. Then they don't want to hear from you. Try sending a PM first.

Q. How do I post a picture here?
A. First of all, it has to be accessable by http:, meaning it has to be hosted on the web somewhere. Once it is there, copy the url into the message body, then highlight, then click the "Img" button under the subject line.

Q: I got some debug error, what gives?
A: Larian is a total n00b and fooked up the database or something. Your post probably went through, just refresh and it should be there.

Q: I had War and Peace posted, but only the first chapter shows.
A: Did we say Larian is a n00b? Yeah, it's another known issue. You may need to post it in installments. Be aware that if it cuts off inside a quote, it will really make the board act starange. This is one of the few instances Larian will actually go in and edit a thread.

Q: Is there much modding here?
A: No, there is no modding unless your post causes the board to crash, then your post will just be formatted so that people can read it normally.

Q. I have more Questions!
A. Post them here, and Larian will answer them!

Okay folks, there is no frikkin dramma here. Call me a gay goat fucker, I don't give a shit. Post all the porn you like (even the Democratic National Party site ). I don't give a shit. Just don't go to the other boards unless you are saying a friendly hello to me, talking about Ranger Class issues in DAoC, joining my silly SCA Household, or want to say hello to the Rockland District High School class of 1985.

Otherwise, go apeshit!

I was a tad bit confused earlier today when suddenly my paralegal (who shares an office with me) exclaimed "Gay goat fucker?!!??" and then laughed her ass off. I was like, "What the fuck?" I didn't get a chance to ask her about it. Now I understand. ROFL.
