I found this interesting, and thought others might as well. It's an article about how to punctuate dialogue in your prose. It might be useful to people writing dialogue for their characters in our PBMB games:

Fleshing Out Your Character
Another article I found today includes a list of questions about your character which encourages you to get to know them better. It is written for prose writers, but what are we, if not frustrated prose writers, right?

Let's rename our OOC threads
To my fellow DMs:
When you jump into the main page for PADnD, you get a crawl listing the most recent posts by thread.
Several of our games have a thread called "OOC Chat," and when I log in I find myself clicking on an OOC thread to see if it's the one for the game I run, or one of the games I play in. And oftentimes, it's not.
I was thinking of suggesting we rename our OOC threads to include the game name, and wouldn't you know it, NoTrammeling went ahead and did it on his own. I have followed suit (my "OOC Chat" is now "BLII OOC Chat") and I think it would be helpful if we all did the same.
Is good, no?

Re: Let's rename our OOC threads
Tis simple babe. open the first post in the thread and edit it, rename the title and off you go. like I just did to saltmarsh.

Re: Let's rename our OOC threads
Like Columbus's egg: It's easy if you know it. I had tried the moderator control panel and looked for an entry "rename topic".
