    There was one comment in the Quarterly survey that jumped out to me. Everyone uses different formats to post. I want to know what you think.

    I think they've got a point. For someone from the outside reading, a uniform style can make all the difference between enjoying it and being uncomfortable. I've been in a lot of PBEM RPGs and their subsequent evolutions and all had agreed-upon formatting. like using =^= for anything going over the communicators ~~ for any thoughts -*- for anything the computer says and so on while keeping the novel style writing overall.

    But I don't think what specific format is as important as uniformity.

    After we finish the departure story, we'll move to having a consistent posting format.

    i'll discuss how to move with this with my staff.
