If you guys are having trouble getting through to Mickey's PM for any reason, my AIM Mail box is open as well as PMs. The latter would be easier, but I can set up accounts as well. So send me the same information Mickey listed above and I'll set up your accounts.

To keep the criticism constructive, I think they have to also explain the reason why they don't like it if they don't, or why they feel it doesn't work. I like having people say they don't like certain parts of it so I a) know what I need to work on and b) have a chance to explain to both them and myself why I did what I did there. Which is basically what you've both said.

Days like today should be forgotten.

I coulda/shoulda posted in this thread a while ago, but I'm kinda lazy and yeah...
My name's Jake and I'm sixteen. Most of my experience as a writer comes from one or two dedicated role-play sites, including the number two site in the RPG-Directory. I've got two or three ideas for books, but I want to try them out as an RP site first. Once I get a reaction from the members there, I hope to make them into something more. Also, I've got the first few chapters of another book that's been greatly inspired by Mr. Butcher and a few others.
I hope to get it finished by the middle of next year.
I used to take photographs like crazy and be okay at it, but then my friend dragged me to an RP site the middle of '05 and I've been hooked since.
Writing isn't about making money. It's about the stories.
For me at least,
~ Jake

Mickey, the support ticket guys must like registered board owners better. I don't know, but I got a reply.
That just got back to me today and I submitted it the day before yesterday or so. That's all you were looking for, right?

3.4 Rights to Posted Content:
Any content uploaded or posted to InvisionFree may be displayed on a board by InvisionFree. You grant InvisionFree the right to display and store the Content you provide.
Might it be possible to clarify so as the legal rights to the posted information are presented clearer. I just want to make sure that the user who posted it has the rights to the information posted.

You have the right to the content, yes. It doesn't become our intellectual property or anything like that.
All that says is basically we have the right to store it on our servers (which is rather necessary, since storing message is what a message board does) and display it back. You still own the content.

Of course, we could also just go ahead with Invision. The lack of response from tech support suggests the likelyhood of them noticing what's actually ON the board to be nil.My experiences with IF agree that they are likely not to notice too much. Their TOS says that the boards are PG-13 or 14, but I've seen boards that are R and up. So long as one doesn't bring attention to themselves or anything, they really won't notice or care.

This is the part that caused me to raise an eyebrow:Quote3.4 Rights to Posted Content:
Any content uploaded or posted to InvisionFree may be displayed on a board by InvisionFree. You grant InvisionFree the right to display and store the Content you provide.
Now, I *know* they have that in there as a "if you post it, we can display it" thing and not "all your words belong to us," but I wanted to make sure.
What do folks think? Go with Invision, or find another way?
Again, even if they do notice, they're not trying to take rights of what's written, just show that they're allowed to do what the board was intended to do. Let the stuff on it be shared. Not the rights to it.
At least, that's my understanding and it's proven true so far.

Have you ever tried and IF board? I've managed about two or three myself, mainly for RPs and whatnot, but they are a lot like this and quite useful. http://www.invisionfree.com You can create a section that can be run by specific members and you can create different groups. Personally, I love them.
