The <!-- |name| --> indicator adds in the link to the profile already, so adding the herf with the id is redundant.
Instead of filling out the "FIELD #" text, you just removed it leaving two empty bold tags. you should remove them or put text in them.

I'm not quite sure what the issue is other than those two in the code. The original works fine and the inspector shows that the code on your forum is quite different from what was posted here. It might be best to reset the html to what the original creator made to remedy the problem as it only looks like you wanted to remove the field name.

No worries, it was pretty late :)

That looks fine to me and I can't seem to replicate the problem.

The only thing I can think of that it might be causing problems with it is the repeating javascript. If you absolutely need to have it, I'd suggest putting it in the wrapper rather than in the forum row. Otherwise, since it is trying to replace the 'subforum' text which changing the argument jcink looks at removed, it seems unnecessary at the moment.

Try removing it to see if that fixes the problem?

Would you mind posting what you have in your template for the forum row? It is difficult to tell what is wrong without seeing the raw arguments.

Also, instead of using script to hide the 'subforums:' text you can use '<!-- |subforums_list| --> ' instead of '<!-- |subforums| --> ' as it displays just the list without the flare.

I was actually debating about allowing dragons to polymorph into humans. It would have some time restrictions for sake of story telling and might make for some good rp scenarios but it wouldn't be like an enforced hard rule or anything. It's just a balancing debate at the moment?

I freaking love high fantasy too. Have you read R.A. Salvatore's Drizzt series? it's good but insanely long

Yes! His Majesty's Dragon is actually part of the influence I had along with Dragon Heart and Pern~ so happy to know I'm not the only one who's read Naomi's books! I think i'm a little obsessed with dragons and dragon rider stories

Forced imprinting sounds better to me than false bond, thanks for the suggestion!

So I have been creating a dragon rider rp set in a victorian-esque era (non-earth world. maybe modern instead of victorian, idk yet). I don't have all the information flushed out since I'm terrible at world building, but here's what I have so far to see if anyone might be interested.

Instead of focusing on rider-to-rider relationships, the focus would be on dragon-and-rider relationships. Riders and dragons would be played by separate people as the dragons wouldn't be reflections of their humans and the rider bond would form over time before the two players may opt for a 'bonding ritual' to give them the perks of a full bond. Or if you have a rp partner already, you could create a pair with them right off the bat. (Of course, if someone wanted to play a dragon and their rider they wouldn't be stopped, they'd just have to app the two separately though creating a rider candidate or a lone dragon would be far more encouraged!)

Dragons aren't everywhere they are about 1 dragon per 60k humans (so there are roughly 20k dragons in the world), riders tend to stick to rual areas to give their dragons plenty of space.

There is a thing called a 'false bond' (name in progress) which a human can forcibly bond with a hatchling but it damages the dragon and is highly illegal.

The tech would be that of mid victorian era, rather than the standard fantasy medieval era would think dragons would be in, in a world with long winters and short summers. That is about all I have of the world's setting so far.

Currently, I have the skin as a wip on jcink but if I get enough interest I'll port it over to proboards instead.

So yeah. That's what I have so far without getting into dragon growth stages and what a rider bond grants. Let me know if you are interested or have any suggestions. I would love assistance on world building if any one would be kind enough to toss ideas at me
