Can you be more clear by it won't let you?

Never mind it fixed itself

It was a post thing. Its some of the new spam bots that were installed.

Okay people, I need some help. I'm trying to post a character thread up, but it won't let me. I'm a new member, so I went and registered my account but it wont let me put up new threads. As you can see I can post, however.

Oops, never mind. Sorry!

Who do i show my character to? 0.o

You post a thread intitled with your characters name, then inside you post your actual character. Then, you wait for someone in the BA Council to approve it, then you can start RPing.

Well... My character has been sittin there for weeks and still no answer so i was thinking that you had to go to one, show it to 'em, and wait for them to scare ya up.

But thanks!

PM a counciler and ask for approval.

I've made a thread with a character, so that's all cool... but I was wondering something - I am wanting to create an extended biography for my character (after it gets approved of course) which other users can see, in order for them to get a good idea on the type of character Tera was, is, and might become, but I can't find any way to do this; is there a good way to do it? (NOTE: the term "extended biography" meaning in this case that it gets updated after every RP I participate in)
I ask because I doubt it could go in the approved character thread because it would get too long after only a few RPs.

Bonog dude, that's a good idea, sorta... But instead of putting it in your biography, make a different sections with links to all the fights/adventures/fictions that your character joined in.

Maybe create a character fiction thread and title it "[Insert-your-character's-name-here]'s Journal" (without the brackets, obviously)? That's only if you want to write a recap or something like that about each battle/roleplay. If you just want people to see your finished RPs, add links to each in your bio, as Venomous-Ninja suggested.

Character fiction?...

*looks around the Amphitheatre*

nvm... found it. That's a great idea Altamira; it will also allow me to use 1st person style in addition to the 3rd person writing used during the RPs. Thanks!

Is there any particular BA council member that it's better to PM than others? My character has been sitting there for about a week now, so...

Gracie and Alta are probably your best bets.

Gracie is busyish. Alta is on all the time, though.
