Hey guys, this is more for the new peeps/characters, but older players should pay attention, too, if you plan on apping another character in the future.
Somarium has a decent number of required posts, and with so many people coming in at once it tends to clutter and bury entries on everyone's f-list. So if you could edit the following entries to Date Out of Order, it would be greatly appreciated:
- Profile Meme
- Voicemail
- Dream Bank Account
If you have any other OOC entries that you are using for your own personal reference, if you could also put those as Date Out of Order just to help keep the f-lists from flooded, that would be great! But at the very least, the above listed entries should be Date out of Order.
How do you mark an entry 'Date Out of Order'?
For those that don't know how, just follow these direction (this works for either editing an existing entry or posting a new one:
- Click the "Edit" link by the Date of the entry
- Change the year to something like 2019 if you want the entries to be near the beginning, OR 2007 if you want the entries at the end of your journal
- Check the 'Date Out of Order' option **THIS IS IMPORTANT**
- Click Save.
The Date out of Order option will keep these entries either before or after all regularly posted entries (it will depend if you put the date in the future or in the past).
It does sometimes glitch a little. If you try to post a normal made entry and it errors, telling you that you can't post the entry after an entry that's Date Out of Order'ed, do the following:
- Go to the specified entry
- Change the date to the current year then back to the originally set year again (so like 2019 --> 2009 --> 2019)
- Try to post the normal entry again
This should fix the problem. It doesn't happen often, but it does sometimes. If there are any problems, let one of us know and we'll try to help.
The acceptance instruction list will reflect these notes, with a link to this entry to help any future applicants who may not know how to Date Out of Order their entries.
Thanks!
