I know I literally posted a couple of days ago, but here is a first go at this. If this works out, great, if not, we shall tinker.
New!
Will fill this category with anything big that is being announced. May not show up every week.
Upcoming & Current Events
Bondings to Join
New Members
Account Rank Changes
Discussions
In thread Updates
(This is just a place where I can edit my post and add things that have been discussed in this thread that are worth noting, so that people can see it easily/)
In the meantime...here are the two pages that I've started with:
Whazzit 101
Glossary
Obviously these are open to being heavily edited, but what do y'all think?
Labels added for Creature creation! Yellow for In Progress, Orange for Complete, Red for those being Voted on.
Please post any and all quickfix concerns (typos, broken links, etc.) in this thread. That way admin/mod who corrects the fix can respond when it is finished. :)
New!
- Weekly News Post!
- Gryphons will be up within the month! As soon as the Gryphon bonding is up and running, Dragon Applications shall be open!
- NPC Chases are now allowed! Speedbondings, as a result of any chase or just in general will also open, shortly. After a quick discussion!
Will fill this category with anything big that is being announced. May not show up every week.
Upcoming & Current Events
- December Event! Be sure to make your TEN posts outside of chases or bondings to receive a MAJOR mutation voucher. FIVE posts outside of chases or bondings will get you a NOTABLE mutation voucher. Please keep track of your posts, with links here. Once you're set, please ping Ara , lish , or myself Henna to approve of your voucher!
- The 12 Days of Whazzitmas will begin on Thursday, December 14th. Tune in to some festive shenanigans!
- Unfortunately, we won't be doing Secret Keehar this year. If we do want to do a gift exchange in the future we can do it in months outside of December. :)
Bondings to Join
Chases to Join
- None!
New Members
- Please welcome @di !
Account Rank Changes
- None, for the moment. Just wanted to put this here so we can note that they'll be included in these posts. :)
Discussions
- What do we think of newsposts like this? Can change the format, make them more detailed, involved. I like the idea of having all fixes/concerns (that are minor, larger concerns more lengthy concerns can be posted at Suggestions & Concerns. Does weekly on Monday sound good to everyone?
- Whazzit 101, do we want to include just one page under the "Information" link up top? Should it get its own tab entirely? We can include things such as what Whazzit is, what a Bonding is, what you should do upon joining (make an OOC account, and IC account, read the rules, PM Henna or any of the admin to get your subboard set up in the directory etc.) Do we want this to be a group effort or shall I draft something and we can edit from there?
- Layouts, though the lovely Gats has offered to make layouts, would anyone like a chance at it? I do have a dummy site that can be used as practice, and then we can make a new group and give you theme-editing access. Please post here, PM me, anything that works!
- Account ranks. Current ranks are here. I kind of like the idea of having all new things but I have zero ideas. Anyone else have them? Otherwise we can keep them as is if that's what people would prefer. I know we keep tossing the idea of badges around, would anyone be willing to make them? We can discuss what they are once we have that figured out.
- Speedbondings. Happy to open these up, with just a couple of questions: What requirements should there be? If someone is on deck to hold a regular bonding, should they be allowed to hold a speedbonding (as long as it's in more than two weeks, or something)?
- Rate of bondings. Do we like this one bonding every two weeks? Is this too slow?
- Edit How do we feel about some sort of calendar? Proboards has a plugin for it. :)
- More Edit Would you guys like to get rid of the "before launch" boards and just transport discussion into the other OOC boards we have?
- Miss anything?

Hey guys, I am fiddling with some Whazzit 101 pages. I figure we can have just the What is Whazzit? page, a Glossary page, a before & after joining page, and maybe a little bit of a more in-depth page to describe the process of bonding. Any other suggestions?
In the meantime...here are the two pages that I've started with:
