SEO is all over Etsy and, honestly, I thought it was primarily a shop thing. Turns out, SEO could be a thing for RP sites, too. At least, in theory. I don't know. I can't SEO to save my soul anyhow! XD

What are your thoughts on this, and do you think it'd be useful? Should we do it? If so, how would it work? (I did ead that first links/link backs are flagged as spam, more or less, in search engines so it's not great for sites doing SEO but... I am... an ignorant nub in this. Please share your wisdom with me.)


     Did you ever figure out anything more about this? Have any success? I'm kind of investigating the same thing for myself. I definitely want to hit page 1 to help myself get some members outside the proboard ecosystem as well as some from within. 

     Any other tips you picked up on?

Granted, but Netflix freezes every time you try to watch it.

I wish I had a new laptop.
GRANTED!
     You now have a brand new laptop; hardware and model never opened by you — or anyone else for that matter!  It was manufactured with TempleOS, and the hardware needed to just barely run it.

This one might not actually be too bad. I'm sure there are some people out there that would pay a pretty penny for something like this.

    I wish to be able to learn and retain any skill hundreds of times faster than the most capable person.

    Getting tired of tropes is something tricky for me; I don't think I consume enough media to get 'tired' of something. I will say that I'm not a big fan of this tendency that some media has to appeal — or pander — to the audience with their protagonist. I see this with a lot of male-oriented anime, shōnen. I think it's called. Isekai anime recently picked this one up a lot. It feels like it's trying to create a self-insert for the viewer. Kind of... I don't know — not my thing. It's a popular genre, so this is evidently not something that the viewers find annoying, or else it’d be phased out, but it made me just not watch Isekai anymore.

    I don't know if this is a trope, but one thing really pisses me off: editor-level meddling for the sake of pandering to focus groups. I recently learned that both JoJo's Bizarre Adventure and Dragon Ball were meant to have a significant female role in their storyline, but editor meddling kept it from happening. More specifically, Part II, JoJo's mother, was meant to take a much more active and badass lead in the story. In DB to DBZ, IIRC it was something about Launch and a few others taking more center stage.

    As for my favorite trope, I'd say that would fall down to powerful female characters. I'm not going to get into the 'I want more representation' in media thing — it's not even about that, really. I just have a really strong draw to seeing really well-made female characters who kick ass. I feel a little annoyed when people bring up that 'it's not realistic' for a female to be beating up beefy men, but... Ugh, I don't even want to go down that argument line.

Yay for necroposting! Sorry!

Hello,

    I'd like to apologize ahead of time is this is the incorrect sub-board for this type on inquiry.

    I've spent many years away from roleplaying. The last few good memories I had were at a place known as "Catch-22". They had, without a doubt, one of the most elegant, intuitive designs I've ever had the pleasure of interacting with. I no longer have contact with anyone who was in that forum. However, I am very interested in finding and utilizing the skin they had to create a forum of my own — completely different themes, setting, plot, etc.

    Following is a hyperlink leading to the site and skin in question: web.archive.org/web/20180803182303/https://catch-22.boards.net/

Remember to always don your
—PPE
If I remember right, this was a skin of their own design. I don't think you're able to find and utilize the skin they had. However, you can certainly commission a skin or something of the sort to get the same feel that you want!

Sorry for that!
I see. I was looking to purchase that skin outright, or license it. I see your point, that commissioning it seems like the best course of action.
