As we're not using any popular or freely available forum software - and have instead written something by ourselves, this discussion board has a - few slight differences with the popular boards you're used to. -</p> - - -:SUB:Boards -<p> - To make sure interested people can find your post, all threads have relations - to one or more 'boards' that define what the discussion is about. This is similar - to boards on other forums, but here every item in the DB has its own board, and - it's possible to link a thread to more than one board. The following boards can be used: -</p> -<dl> - <dt>db</dt><dd> - VNDB Discussions. This board is for discussions about the database and the site. - </dd><dt>ge</dt><dd> - General discussions. This is a general board for threads that do not fit in - any of the other boards. - </dd><dt>v#</dt><dd> - For discussions about a particular visual novel. The board <i>v17</i>, for example, - is used for all threads related to <a href="/v17">v17</a>. - </dd><dt>p#</dt><dd> - Same as <i>v#</i>, but for producers. - </dd><dt>u#</dt><dd> - The <i>u#</i> board can be used to notify a user on this site about something - he/she must see or to discuss about an edit he/she has made. This is similar - to the 'private message' feature of most sites, except it's not 'private'... - </dd><dt>an</dt><dd> - Used for site announcements. Limited to moderators. - </dd> -</dl> - - -:SUB:Formatting -<p> - The following codes can be used to format your message: -</p> -<dl> - <dt>X# or X#.#</dt><dd> - A 'VNDBID', as we call them. These are numbers starting with a character (d, p, r, u or v), - and are optionally followed by a period and a second number. VNDBIDs will automatically be converted - into links to the page on the website. For example, typing 'v4.4' will result in '<a href="/v4.4">v4.4</a>'. - </dd><dt>URL</dt><dd> - Any URL (without the use of the [url]-tag, see below) will be converted into a link, similar to the - VNDBIDs. Example: 'http://vndb.org/' will be formatted as '<a href="http://vndb.org/">link</a>'. - </dd><dt>[url]</dt><dd> - The classic BBCode [url]-tag. Can only be used in the form of <i>[url=link]link title[/url]</i>.<br /> - E.g. '[url=/v]List of visual novels[/url] and [url=http://blicky.net/]some external website[/url]' - will be displayed as '<a href="/v">List of visual novels</a> and <a href="http://blicky.net/">some external website</a>' - </dd><dt>[spoiler]</dt><dd> - The [spoiler]-tag should be used to hide information that could spoil the enjoyment of playing the - visual novel for people who haven't done so yet. - </dd><dt>[quote]</dt><dd> - When quoting other people, put the quoted message inside a [quote] .. [/quote] block. Please - note that the popular [quote=source]-syntax doesn't work on VNDB. (yet) - </dd><dt>[raw]</dt><dd> - Show off your formatting code skills by putting anything you don't want to have formatted in a [raw] - tag. Any of the formatting codes mentioned above are ignored within a [raw] .. [/raw] block. - </dd><dt>[code]</dt><dd> - Similar to [raw], except that the text within the [code] .. [/code] block is - formatted in a fixed width font and surrounded by a nice box to keep it - separate from the rest of your post. - </dd> -</dl> -<p> - There is no [img]-tag and there won't likely ever be one, if you want to include - screenshots or other images, please upload them to an external hosting service - (e.g. <a href="http://tinypic.com/" rel="nofollow">TinyPic</a>) and link to them - in your post. -</p> - - |
