On-screen keyboards are awesome for times like this. If you're using Windows, it's usually under Control Panel -> Accessibility or something to that effect.

That said, welcome to the forums, read the rules, fear the Box, fix your keyboard, so on and so forth.

Honestly, I'm reading everything you write with a Transylvanian-style accent... want to replace W's with V's while you're at it?

In all seriousness, though, people will get a much better impression of you if you take the extra time to type correctly. The mods will also be less likely to smack you around...

Well I don't know if this counts... but I chose a screenname that would logically be shortened to 'Amber' before realizing that this is the name of DMFA's artist and creator. I was rather offset and mildly embarrassed when I realized what I'd done. Now people have to call me AC... >.>

i actually tried to find the on screen keyboard o.o for some reason i couldn't locate it, >.< and i don't have a numerical keypad... but i guess i could just copy paste, or use this blasted spell checker thing. >.> demon magic i say. DEMON MAGIC

on another note i did notice that, 'admin's think you' thing. what's that for? if it's one of those 'in the rules' things i'll likely find it when i get up in the morning XD

Someone got upset at it being called Karma, so the admins renamed it to make it more obvious that it's a joke.

ohhhhh, that explains it. XD i noticed a LOT of variable numbers Dx i imagine my -1 probably came from my first appearance here having a horrifically typoed and grammar murdering post. XD

Welcome to the boards, I hope you enjoy it here. :)

On a sidenote, that drawing rocks.

:D

GAH - I have been lured into fiddling with forum tamagotchies.

Tapewolf

Here's a suggestion - write the post with Z's, or maybe something more obscure like '@'.  Copy it into Notepad or some similar equivalent.  Get an 's' from somewhere and do a search-and-replace.  Or just go out and buy another keyboard ;-)

Anyway, welcome to the forum, don't forget to read the rules and remember that there's more to the forum than just DMFA.  It was originally set up for Darkmoon's CVRPG...

Second the 'new keyboard' suggestion. When I needed a spare keyboard (transferring stuff between my old and new computers) I found a fairly good basic one at my local Kmart for A$10.

Also, welcome. Have a souvenir coffee mug.

Shoryu

yay...coffee mug. o.o i don't drink coffee >.> dunno why i don't like it.

also, i live about 50 miles from the nearest 'anywhere' selling electronics, plus i'd need a usb keyboard cause i'm using a laptop. though it helps that the posting page here allows spell checking XD

also, on another note, would it be acceptable to peddle links to story pieces i'm doing to get opinions? i mean, once i actually get done with all the ideas oozing out of my ears Dx

hey look, a Z where it's supposed to be.

and i had noooo idea lost lake was built near dracula's castle >.> that must've been one helluva realization for some people. =3

Take those to the Tower of Art. Rules in there state how to set up a thread, all that jazz.

Assuming you're in the US, you could always hit up newegg or something and get them to post you a keyboard. It's not going to be massively expensive to do that...

Or use search/replace. Or copy.paste an s every time you need one. Or you could ask nicely on the IRC, I'm sure someone will happily provide an s.

... no, wait. Actually, scrap that last idea. If you wander in there and ask, I'm sure that everyone there will deliberately remove every s from everything they say. Including nicknames...

Holy bologna sauce! I didn't even notice they changed it O_o Last I checked it was 'come' and 'go'... does it change every few months or something? As an aside however, I too disapprove of the word 'karma'. However my reason is that I think it should be spelled 'kharma' >.>

llearch n'n'daCorna

Take up the spelling with the SMF developers. I'm sure they'll be more than happy to discuss making that change with you, given the extensive support you've provided them.

ooOooooo ... I could automate it .. write a script ...

it could convert all 's' and 'S' into z's
it would be easy too !

*scampers off*

:D

GAH - I have been lured into fiddling with forum tamagotchies.

llearch n'n'daCorna

The clever sort would get such a script into Shoryu's IRC client, so that he never sees any s's at all...

Even better - Modify the IRC server software, that way no matter which client you connect with, you'd still get no s's. :D

GAH - I have been lured into fiddling with forum tamagotchies.

Inumo

He would if he changed onto a different server. I'd say just modify his client and block all other clients. :P

llearch n'n'daCorna

I run the server. I'm pretty sure I can make sure there are no other servers... ;-]

I don't really mind, as long as I know which one means "Come" and which one means "Go". Right now, I haven't the slightest clue...

AFAIK the order cannot be changed, so it's always + on the left and - on the right.

He doesn't have the requisite anatomy to make ritual sacrifices that appease me.
