Hey everyone! Just wanted to drop in and say that I made some edits to the Rules of Poliwager Forums, so be sure to read up on those. There aren't any major changes to the rules here, but some of them have been clarified more and expanded upon. Ask any questions you might have here.

I have a few questions; since I've been gone so gosh dang long.

Q#1: How many posts do we have to wait; like after we post, then someone else does; before we can post again?

Q#2: What is the the minimal amount of time; to where a Topic would be considered dead, and/or unable to be revived back to life?

My Life So Far
My life has changed a lot, since I was here last.
So far, I've had my heart broken, family & friend issues, surgery; to remove an infected jaw/wisdom tooth, and finally; I have begun my transition into a male.
Yes, I have had a busy life since I've been gone; but, I am glad hat I am back once again.

Back and forth posting is acceptable in moderation. For example, if you post, then User 1, then you, then User 1, try to wait for User 2 to post before posting again. Basically, try not to continually post back and forth without waiting for someone else to join in the conversation as well. This is primarily important for the Forum Games forum. If you want to post back and forth with someone, take it to PM. :)

Generally I'd say about a year. Time relevant topics are the exception, of course. You wouldn't want to necessarily revive a topic about an event that was live happening in 2017, for example. It always depends, but if you're unsure, simply create a new topic instead. :)

Hopefully that clears up some of the confusion!

Perfect!
Helped me a bunch actually, thanks Slix.



Q#1 - In Creativity Corner Forum Section, is it okay to post on your own created Topic; say double post, etc. and still be safe without getting warnings? Or do we have to keep editing our first post/created entry every time we have something to add?
I'm on another pokemon website, and they have this sort of Forum Corner; and on that site they let you post over and over, in your own Topic you've made. So I was wondering the same thing here.
