Because it's basically the forum for one of the best furry comics out there.
Welcome aboard.
Nekoboy? I suppose you're into cats then. Hi there. This is the forum, do not fill it with as much stupidity as I do and you will be liked by all.

Umm......does the owner have an account here becasue i need to talk with her.....
That would be Amber Williams, and she does come on once and a while. I'd think it best not to try and offend her though. She could squash you like a bug.

I come not to offend im acutlly a fan of her comic i acutlly came to try and contact her sicne i cannot thought e-mail about some contest i saw on her site......for some reason it wont let me e-mail her withotu erros.....so knwo a good way i can contact her besides e-mail?
Well, this is a good start, if it's not a private matter she'll maybe read this thread eventually...
or you can PM her
or you might want to double check that the address you are sending to is correct, as the one on the main site is the same as the one in her profile, and I can't see how it would not be working unless her domain has had some sort of failure with its mail server.
(out of curiosity, what error are you getting?)
I wasn't aware of a contest. But if you look at her user page by clicking on the all user list at the main forum page, it should have her IM Usernames and such. Just a thought, you might want to be more careful with your spelling when you finally do contact her.
Wait. Wait. Let me see if I understand.
You clicked on the link on the site that said "Forum". You set up an account. You figured out how to post a new topic and reply. You can read, obviously. You could see all the little subforums, with descriptions underneath about what the subforums are for.
And you still made a topic asking what this place is?
Wow.

This is a shared forum, belonging to (at this point) DMFA and Mab's Land, the Inverted Castlevania Dungeon, CVRPG, and DSWC, and to the webcomic Last Resort.
As such, not all thematic elements will match just one site.

I'm also typing fast. This isn't a contest, nor a chatroom. We're not going to miss something if you take another 2 minutes to type your message. Honest.
I really recommend you adjust your spelling, since otherwise it's almost impossible to figure out what you're actually trying to say.

Some idea of what the weird email messages are would be helpful. Certainly I'm not getting any, although I haven't seen a response yet (not that I'd expect one, mind; Amber has a lot on her plate, and doesn't always respond to email promptly. Something about being busy drawing pictures, or something like that...)
She also said something about folks e-mails to her getting 'eaten' lately. I'm not sure what exactly could be happening there (unless her inbox is full or her spam filter is very aggressive) but it could be connected. Though when I mailed her I didn't get any strange messages back either, but she said she didn't think she'd seen it. :S Wonder if maybe something is up there?

I just thought someone should point out that Mab hasn't updated the NABBA in many years, and she may have abandoned the project. (last one was in, what, 2002? 2004?)
Firefox claims that this one (http://www.mabsland.com/Nabba_Naal.jpg) was modified on "Thu, Mar 17, 2005 4:41:12 PM." If that's to be believed, the last one was done as late as 2005.
I don't think it was that recent. I'd be willing to bet she didn't do it later than 2004, and that's pushing it. She didn't most (ie, all) of those while she was in college.

Yup. I suggested you were behaving like it might be a speed contest, and further suggested that you might like to slow down somewhat to resolve the spelling issue.
Knowing why you're misspelling doesn't make it any easier to decipher your sentences when a 21 word sentence has at least 13 errors in it. You're not really doing yourself any favours, here.
Seriously, the best thing you could do is get Firefox 3 with its built-in spellcheck, and actually pay attention when it says you've spelled something wrong. It's what I do.

FF2 has built in spell-check as well. Has had for ages.

For someone who blames fast typing, you sure do miss a lot of capitalized I's. It's called shift, and it takes almost no effort, and even less time.

Actually, this one group of people we do allow others to mock. People who don't show enough courtesy online to type in an appropriate manner, and yet expect others to try and sift through and translate their post- they deserve whatever they get.
The only exceptions are for people who have legitimate learning disabilities or are in the process of learning english. So, unless you fall into one of those groups, I'd suggest slowing down and making an effort to type like an educated human being. Or, be mocked. Your choice.
It's true. It's in the rules.

Hm... no, they'd probably spell it H'Gave. No, H'Gave!: the exclamation mark is important. And they'd pronounce it Hi-gah-vay or something like that, probably say it's from an African or Amazonian bush (No civilian/normal person would look it up to double-check anyway), and say that it's just as good as caffeine but natural without any of the nasty toxins that you don't know about. They'd be offering it in a booster for $1.25 at Jamba Juice, and you could buy it at Safeway or whatever your local supermarket is. Soon, you'd have punny shirts like "H'Gave way my coffee!" or something stupid like that. And within a year we'd be onto the new phase.

It's a little hard to ignore some of us. We're pretty obnoxious, if we put our minds to it...
I think he's doing better though...only two spelling errors [three actually], two cap errors, and probably two punctuation errors. Heck, I'm making more than that typing this post up. :B (But I'm correcting it as I go. :3)
Incidentally, I think you could make it very easy for him to ignore you, llearch. Heck, you could make it so that he never sees any of us to annoy him again. >:3 Not that you would do that...right?

If it helps, there is the "Insert Quote" button for all the posts displayed below when you're typing a reply. It helps if you want to quote multiple posts. Also, the spell check button next to the "Preview" and "Post" button. If your browser doesn't have a built-in spell check, that works too. What browser are you using, anyways?
I likely will update Mab's Land again at some point. No sense paying a hosting fee for a dead site. But it likely wont happen for a while since I have been pretty focused on other things and Mabs Land has been the backburner of them all.
Odds are when I do update though, I will be making site changes. Cutting some things back, pushing some things forward. Re-organizing. I may even consider a site overhaul.
Right now though my main focus for Mab's Land is revising the whos who pages like I started off doing. Once I get those done, I will likely begin considering updating with stuff again.

=D
You mean when Jyrras offered Lorenda a place to live?
Yes, I believe it was supposed to look like that. I'm not sure that Jyrras had any idea that he was gay - although I suspect Lorenda might have had an idea or two...
Good gosh man, we need to get you a spell checker somehow.
Anyway, as far as which browser you're using...if you use Windows, click on the start menu. At the top, you should see something that says "Internet." Below that, it'll say what your browser is (probably Internet Explorer, you'll recognize it if there's a letter "e" next to the text). If you're on a Mac, mouse over the icon in your dock, and you should see what the browser's name is.
As far as the built-in forum spell check, I didn't know that about it. I use a different color scheme when I'm logged in than the forum default, so I guess that's not a problem for me. :/

I'm inclined to imagine that at a certain level Jyrras was either in denial or hadn't really given any thought to the matter. However, he seemed to have at least accepted that he had a crush on Dan, and was trying to convince himself to get over it at the time he met Abel. Somehow I doubt Lorenda had any idea until she'd been living with him a while, and maybe only really started to get confirmations of a sort for her suspicions when Jyrras' sisters talked to her about his lack of interest in dating and his friendship with Dan. Incidentally, Jyrras' sisters and Lorenda only met twice: at the visit and when they came to say that Moira was pregnant again. When did they talk to Lorenda? It really changes things if she'd "known" for a couple of weeks. I guess Jyrras just had to have someone (i.e. Abel) force him to confront his feelings for Dan, which in turn lead to him really thinking it out and accepting that he was gay. Given that only a few weeks have passed in-comic since he first met Abel, though, I'm not really certain. Maybe Amber has a better answer. Amber?

i'd say he was more "appraising you of the rules and considerations of the forum" rather than directly threaten you. Llearch is a Forum mod, after all, it's his job to enforce the rules.

I'm not threatening. I'm warning. The rules are there, and clear (and if they're not clear, it'd be useful if someone would explain in what way they aren't; we've done the best we can to make them clear) and are followed by everyone on the forum; as are the results of not following the rules.
Feel free to ignore my warning. It won't make you unique, and I'm pretty sure I'll live with the consequences.

Really?
So, theoretically, I could make an attack-like statement as a general statement, and get away with it? Or would that be a really gray area where I could still get in trouble if you felt I had crossed a line? Or just felt like punishing me?
Well, when in doubt, remember we have Rule 6: Don't be an Idiot. It's our rubber-band rule -- one size fits all.

Okay. Seriously. You've had THREE moderators tell you to start typing right. We understand some typos and other mistakes, and occasionally being incoherent, but you've used up your allotment.
I am deeming this your last incomprehensible post. The next one will get you a ban. The length of the ban will depend on which mod finds it first, and how cranky they are at that moment.
So, tips for success:
1) Spelling
2) Grammar
3) Punctuation
4) Proper Sentence Structure (yes, technically under grammar, but I'm pulling it out for special notice anyway.)

Can you write correctly in english? If you misspell a word, just use the backspace key. You don't have to type fast.

It's perfectly fair. You're being expected to live up to the standard I apply to the rest of the posters.
Slow down, type correctly, use proper grammar, and post an intelligent post. It's not that hard. It's a technique that will serve you well in the real world, where employers actually look down on staff members that can't type without slipping into AOL-speak.
So, somehow I think you will find away to survive this grave injustice.

No. We're saying that every single post you have has more than one word misspelled. That's not "if you misspell a word", that's "if you manage to make a post that has none, we'll be surprised"
Quite frankly, it hurts to try to figure out what you mean, and it's reached the point where I'll assist everyone else in trying to figure it out by making it all go away.
It's entirely up to you to resolve your side. After all, it's not like the forum is going anywhere.

As it so happens, I myself never learned to touch-type. I do look at the keyboard when I'm typing, I use a minimum of fingers doing it, and I do make spelling errors as I type. But I check my screen periodically, I make sure that I check if by browser thinks I misspelled a word, and I look for idiot things that my browser won't pick up (to/too, etc.). It really takes a few seconds, especially on really short posts. I won't BS you, I'm sure I miss things, but I figure I pick up most things. And it makes you a -whole- lot more understandable.

I've taken a typing course, for 20 euro's at the time, to be able to type better. (Though I do make mistakes) I would really advice you to just click the spell check if you are done typing a post, it works well, not as well as firefox, but since you do not have that program it is your best option. The spellchecker for sentences such as yours would require about 10 seconds of your time at most anyway.
(note: I used the firefox spellchecker to check the spelling, not that I made that many mistakes, since I typed relatively slowly. )
I know you don't want to, and the only reason I can think of why is that we are just not worth that extra bit of time to you, which I find kind of an insult, since we are doing it for you as well. Heck, I am not even english, I should be talking dutch to you now.
Forums aren't IRC, you won't die or get lost in a sea of text if you take your Time with typing your posts, just take it easy, take your time, and you'll find that you'll eventually learn to touchtype in your own way, and somewhat coherently, i might add.
There's no rush.. :)
I didn't really want to chip in on this, but apparently your motivation for starting this thread was to ask Amber something. That being the case, I'd have thought that making a good impression in terms of spelling and grammar would be kind of important, wouldn't it?

Before you know it we're going to fill the Mine beyond it's brim and soon it will start all spewing out into all the other sections. It will be PURE ANARCHY! ANARCHY I SAY!!!

Oh, no. I can be much worse than that.
You probably want to be careful about waving words like that around, though, since it's technically against the rules of the forum, and I could quite easily ban you for it.
I won't, because I understand you're getting worked up over it, but just thought I'd mention it.
Please i'm asking you all, stop replying. I all ready got my awnser and all the hate ,ill need for the next two years of my life. Now the only person I want to awnser is Amber OR any other kind people....thats is all, not haters....kay? -sighs- Allso if you forget I was asking about the gay thing...(I forget his name) :mowignore
Allso I think thats the first bad word I said so get off my back.
Ya know, if you like the comic so much how can't you remember anybody's names? It's not meant to harass you, I mean it as a legitimate question.
On another note, let it be known that a forum, in it's original meaning, was a place where anybody could share their ideas and speak freely. So really asking people not to make posts is sorta defeating the purpose.

Believe me, considering the roots of this forum (at least on one side of it's tree), this is barely a whisper of anything that could even remotely be called hate. This is a droplet of mild malice.
However, I will state you annoy me, and the sooner you stop acting like a whiny child, the better off this forum will be.

Well that makes two of us, If you dont like me, I dont like you.....simple as that.....allso I'm not the one whineing about other people's spelling/posts am I? ....Didnt think so...and to be truefull this form would be better off if everyone just stop complaning about how others type.
It's in the bloody rules, you moron. The rules are there for a reason.
Talking back to moderators is also in the rules. As is the names of the seven people you're not allowed to talk back to like a petulant child.
Seriously, a question for the room- Why is it so difficult for the new people to read the rules? It's like they don't think the rules apply to them. This is something like the sixth person we've had to have this discussion with.
In my own defense I did read them and whenever I did break them I didn't usually realize it until I got a warning. Also, thank you to the mods for your perseverance instead of going out and living a real life like a normal human being. ^^
You've never gotten an official warning, so I wouldn't worry about it.
Also note that the rules are linked at the top of every single page, and in the page that you MUST agree to before creating an account; we do our bit to make sure they're there.
If there's some wrinkle of the system that means that you can get in without at least clicking on something that confirms that you have read, and will abide by, the rules, I'm not aware of it, and I'd appreciate being told, so that I can go and fix it.
He could've just not read them and clicked on the "agree" button.
Ah, but see, that's not our fault, that's his. Not reading them is not the same as not having a chance to do so.

I'm pretty sure that's a rhetorical question and wasn't meant to be answered seriously... Attempting to answer it seriously though, it's the
MySpace syndrome, previously called the
AOL syndrome, and the
Prodigy syndrome before that, and has offshoots into
Geocities,
Tripod, and
Hotmail disease.
Short version is a lot of people use computers today who shouldn't be using computers. They were never taught proper maintenance, proper etiquette, or any of the generally accepted social norms. For them, the internet represented a way to get everything for free, with no responsibility, and no culpability. The ability to be completely anonymous online, outside of specialized tracking tools, gives many people the idea that they can say anything, do anything, and be anything, they want.
While Prodigy was one of the starting points of enabling the
limited-users access to the net, the concept really took off with AOL. AOL's massive marketing scheme, low prices, and generous amounts of free hours drove hordes of new users who had no business being online, online. The fallout still continues today, with AOL emails automatically blocked by many forums and email systems. Many
http://www. sites also block AOL users. Granted, as a company and as a business AOL has tanked, and most people are glad to see AOL go.
However, the people, the what passed for a community behind AOL, has moved on. The people looking for a free ride have latched onto sites like MySpace, FaceBook, and Youtube. Seriously, go look at the comments on videos at Youtube. People there are obscene, vulgar, rude, lacking of intelligence, and so on and so forth. From my view, it's just an extension of the same old trolls that came to the net through AOL.
Unfortunately, there's not much that can actually be done against the trolls without also causing interruption to the legitimate users. If you make the rules and regulations obnoxiously present, the people who behave according to the rules will find somewhere else to go. If you make things easy for the people who follow rules, someone will come along who honestly thinks that the rules don't apply to them.
Personally, my favorite answer is a swift kick to the pants. Granted, some people need multiple kicks to the pants.
***
Anyways, addressing a question I think that came earlier. Both FireFox includes an inline text spell check mechanism by default. Konqueror, at least as of 3.5.8 also includes an inline text mis-spelling indicator by default, although correcting the spelling is a bit more complex. Opera does not include a spell checker by default, but does use GNU Aspell: http://www.opera.com/support/tutorials/opera/spellcheck/
As far as I'm aware, only Microsoft browsers do not offer any inline spell checking options... so, if you see somebody who constantly mis-spells, chances are they probably are using Microsoft products... either that or they just ignore the little red lines in or around misspelled text, or add all of their bogus spellings to the dictionary files.
I suppose that originally I was one of the said people who had no reason to be online to be perfectly honest. However because of the internet I learned computer maintenance and such. So really the internet turned me into somebody who uses the internet well. Anyways, I play a few online games now and then, but mainly I use the internet for communicating with friends and to get news. Apart from what most people think, the internet was originally created for the transfer of information.
People are surprised when I tell them that I've never even visited MySpace or any of those social networking sites. The internet to me is a place of research (in all of it's varied kinds) and a place for going to forums like these where you can discussions with people on the other side of the world and not think twice about it. To be frank, forums like these raise me spirit and help me pretend that humans can basically get along without everything turning into a fight.
And it's nice to hear that it's possible to learn something from internet aside from how to be a massive twit.

Scroll down to the bottom of the main index page when you get to the forum: it's the last section before you get to the Info Center. Here's a link to the section itself (http://clockworkmansion.com/forum/index.php/board,8.0.html). It's "Where the stupid posts go for all to mock." Have a look around...

Um, it looks like "The only posts there are my accidental second post of the same thing edited and funny links to the comic... so no farm done there." I think. Something like that.
And for a moment there, a brief moment, we had improvement.

Typo. Sometimes it slips through. The computer doesn't catch it because "farm" is a real word. Had I typed it "hram," it would have caught it. And it just did.

A little bit. But remember, "why do you tell your friend to remove the splinter from his eye when you have not yet taken care of the log in yours?" Or something like that, I can't remember exactly. Incidentally
"To be truthful it's a bit funny: you correct me, and then I correct you..." Just remember to double-check your spelling and grammar. Sorry if I come across a little heavy-handed, but typos really do bother me. I'm a little anal that way: any post I make, if I find a typo and no one's pointed it out yet, I dive back in and change it. I'm that bad. Some of my posts have been edited four or five times because I keep finding missing periods or "'" where they don't belong. I need help.
EDIT: See? Found a typo and fixed it. Argh, I have a problem!

Dude I saw that post I made, but I didnt feel like fixing it, but as you can see I can make a good post if I wish to.

No, it's the sheer number of posts you have available that need translating. ;-]

How is it that you can say something risque like that and when I do similar I get a friendly warning from you about the Master's screwdriver?
It depends on where you do it.
And just how obscure you are about it. And humorous.
Mostly the humorous thing.

Try using the "Preview" button (right between the "Post" and "Spell Check" buttons) to see what a post will look like when you post it.

I type looking at the keyboard, too, because I don't touch type. But I can tell when I hit the wrong key, and I look up at what I am typing and check for errors. There's nothing wrong with making errors, but you should at least look for them to correct. There's nothing wrong with spending a few seconds to check your quality, and everything right with ensuring that you make a good impression on the community you've decided to join. Come to that, it takes about 10 seconds to run through the spell check before you post; it's right next to preview, on the other side from post.

I guess it must be theme dependant; I use the DMFA theme for the entire board, and have no contrast problems with the spell checker. (I'm not suggesting that you need to change your theme, just commenting.)

I don't even know how to change the them to begin with all i know is the bg it just like this site to dark to see writeing on it D=
In your profile, under "look layout and preferences" the top option shows your current theme, and allows you to choose a different one.(mine is "DMFA skin" which is the theme you see when you enter the subforum for DMFA)
I like my dark skins.

Eh, no worries Darkmoon, it's just a slip of the tongue. Um, keyboard. Something like that.
Everyone's a little bit racist
Sometimes.
Doesn't mean we go
Around committing hate crimes.
Look around and you will find
No one's really color blind.
Maybe it's a fact
We all should face
Everyone makes judgments
Based on race.
...
Everyone's a little bit racist
It's true.
But everyone is just about
As racist as you!
If we all could just admit
That we are racist a little bit,
And everyone stopped being
So PC
Maybe we could live in -
Harmony!
We could learn a lot from crayons. Some are sharp, some are pretty and some are dull. Some have weird names, and all are different colors, but they all have to live in the same box. =D
Allso thanks for telling me ill look into the bg thing later

—Usage note Long before the use of generic he was condemned as sexist, the pronouns they, their, and them were used in educated speech and in all but the most formal writing to refer to indefinite pronouns and to singular nouns of general personal reference, probably because such nouns are often not felt to be exclusively singular: If anyone calls, tell them I'll be back at six. Everyone began looking for their books at once. Such use is not a recent development, nor is it a mark of ignorance. Shakespeare, Swift, Shelley, Scott, and Dickens, as well as many other English and American writers, have used they and its forms to refer to singular antecedents. Already widespread in the language (though still rejected as ungrammatical by some), this use of they, their, and them is increasing in all but the most conservatively edited American English. This increased use is at least partly impelled by the desire to avoid the sexist implications of he as a pronoun of general reference. See also he.

That doesn't make you right, Nekoboy. Just picky.
As far as I can tell, there's no definition of race on this board. We're all just members of this forum. It seems like the only one attributing anything to 'race' here is you. Saist can't be implying anything about your race as we have no idea what it is or even what it could be. Aside from maybe a male feline.
Either way, you're looking into what Saist said way too much.
By "they" he most likely means obstinate new posters that refuse to listen to the mods, despite the fact that he's repeatedly been told to shape up.
The only person inserting race into the discussion is you. Posters here have no race, unless they share it.
