Is there anything you can (or plan) to do about this, if you consider it an issue? If it weren't for that, I would really like to check your site out. I also have two sons who roleplay D&D 3.5 and I'm sure they'd be quite interested as well.
Anyway, good luck!

Thanks for taking the time to look at the site.

Unfortunately, as an unregistered user the only thing you can view to see some of the additions is the postbit.
I have had one user out of 56 (we are new,

) suggest to lighten up the text color. I viewed the site from various different computers at work and home and never had a problem reading the text, but what I will do tomorrow is lighten up the text color a bit and hopefully it'll make it more readable,
It is a role playing forum (members role play their character as if they are that character in the Skullport setting), and the code I have added and will add is just to add some more fun to it all. When we started on phpbb we had all I listed above completed, and it is a very unique way of seperating spammers from those who join to write/adventure. One other thing that seperates us from other forums is that we do not ban users, we enslave them.

That is, another member can bid with gold to "own" that character, and if the member role plays his "sentence" in good faith, all rights are restored to that member. As Skullport is a city of thieves and slaves, it suits the atmosphere.
If you and your sons decide to join from the same computer, the first who join should pm myself or one of the other Lords to let them know that more than one member will be joining from the same IP, as we do not allow multiple accounts.
Also, changes to a couple of D&D skills and feats had to be made to fit a forum environment (to make them useful as all skills and feats are utilized throughout the forum, like 'slight of hand' for pickpocketing another user).
So much more work needs to be done, I'm presently building the Training Hall to "level-up" characters
