The guild bulletin board is a private message board that every member of a guild can read and write on. The Master and Jr. Masters can also pin one notice at the top of it. Open it from the Guild tab with the GUILD BBS button.
Reading
The board lists the pinned notice first (marked [Notice]) and then the threads, newest first, each with its subject, an emoticon if the author chose one, the writer and the date. Posts from today show the time; older ones show the month and day. A number in square brackets after a subject is the number of replies. The window shows the ten newest threads.
Click a thread to read it in the pane on the right, with its replies underneath.
Writing a thread
- Press WRITE in the reading pane.
- Type a subject (up to 25 characters) and the text (up to 600 characters). If the text box is empty the game asks you to enter some text.
- Optionally click an emoticon from the strip below the text; click it again to remove it.
- Press REGISTER to post, or CANCEL to throw the draft away.
Replying
Select a thread, type your reply (up to 25 characters) in the reply bar and press the reply button. Replies can be deleted with the small delete button beside them.
The pinned notice
Masters and Jr. Masters can pin a thread as the notice with the NOTICE button. A board has one notice at a time: if there is already one, the game asks you to delete the current notice first and then try again. Do not confuse this with the one-line guild notice that scrolls across the Guild tab.
Editing and deleting
- You can edit or delete your own threads and replies.
- The Master and Jr. Masters can edit or delete anyone's.
- If a post vanished while you were reading it, the game tells you that it was deleted by another user.
Emoticons
Posts can carry a small emoticon. A few are free for everybody. The rest are Guild Forum Emoticon items sold in the Cash Shop (Angry, Smile, Silent, LOL, Surprise, Cry and Furious); you can use one on a post only while that item is in your inventory.
