The Hive is (realy) Dead! Long Live the Hive Mind!

My computer doesn't like image rich sites. I went to your site a while ago and it was not happy. Kinda sucks. I want to check it out.

It's not THAT image rich. It should load fairly quickly. What browser do you use? Works best on firefox and IE7.

or just go to the forums, which are much tamer.

Speaking of CM.... I poped in briefly today and there appears to a lot of crap going on. Have not followed it so I'm staying here mostly. Part of the reason I don't like CM.... so volital (sp).

This isn't CM so I'll avoid making comments on that one......

We seem to get away with stuff here in the hive. See how clean you can get it and go for it.

I'm nearly completely computer illiterate. My hook up runs at 24 to 26.4 speed. Modem on old 1960's wires.

Kills many of my options for computer use.

Potentialy. Given I've only got 3 people who have posted enough of a concept to get working on it, and a 4th saying he would, you're probably fine. I'm more worried about interesting backgrounds than anything else.

I hope to have a character ready by the end of Memorial Day. I've never been big into detailed backgrounds. I might see if I can come up with one.

No crap that I'm aware of. Other than some issues with one user that spilled over to 2, and that was more annoyances than anything.

It's less volitile than you might think for an "unmoderated" board.

I just remember a comment of hers that no man will ever sleep in her bed. Made me wonder how to take it.

Option 1
Non-straight female

Option 2
Bi-sexual (woof howl)

Option 3
Military forbids it in her building

Option 4
Sex yes....stay over no

Option 5
She is saying whatever gets us horny guys the most wand up

I think 5 but like 2 the most

That minor drama is what he's talking about.

It should be interesting. It doesn't need to be "and at age 17 and 27 days, he had diareiah very badly", but something that maybe has a hook or drive to why he's adventuring, maybe something he's seeking (redemption, an item, a person, women). I get very detailed with mine, but most of that is just what happens.

[sblock=Example background]Cade grew up in a small Halfling village north of Orussus. His village has had constant problems with goblins raiding the field and attacking caravans. Cade had always admired the outriders of his village, and when he grew up, trained to become one. He trained his St Bernard Alton himself, and they have become close companions.

The goblins became bold at one point, and setup a blockade. The outriders gathered and planned an assault on the blockade. Cade charged in with the outriders, and spotted someone barking out orders. He managed to strike true with his lance, and felled the goblin in one blow. Disorganized and demoralized, the blockade broke, and the outriders mopped up several goblin warriors before they could hide.

Since then, the village has been peaceful, but Cade chose to set out hoping to find or learn something that might help his village the next time the goblins attack.[/sblock]

That's from one of my LEW characters. It's simple, gives you an idea of where he comes from and where he's going, and gives me room to play, and maybe something to specificly interest my character.

If I know the game world and GM's style I love backgrounds. It helps with role playing and giving purpose to the character. Even wandering rogues have goals and interests based on their past.

If either of you looked at my John Play stats you could see his background. His COMPLETE background I left out. Details on what happened to the parents in truth, What happened to his father, Why he decided to join the Dark Lanterns, Who the stranger is and so on.....
