Quiz link My result Health Sciences You would be suited to work in a health science job. Such jobs include doctor, nurse, medical assistant, and dentist. Like there could have been something else XD hahahah

We've promised an improved manga reader with more series, updated daily. We tried to implement these changes on YO's old manga reader, but, due to the size, there was a high possibility that YO would have loaded slower, so, we decided to work from the start on a different system. The new reader contains all manga genres, but with a big focus on Yaoi and Shounen Ai (over 1900 BL series). More titles will be added regularly. It is called MangaReado. It also has a forum, so you can join us there as well. Thanks to YO staff for all their help and to all the members for their patience and support. (:

@Saga Could we have a new theme? ^_^

Summary: An arranged marriage makes Ryuu unhappy. His only happiness is the time he spents with his harmonica bringing happiness to all those who listen to its melody Status: In progress Prologue IndentIt was a lovely day, almost nothing could ruin it. The sounds of the birds outside sounded lovely, the chattering of people were in harmony. But in the metallic wall, hardly anything was normal to the ones outside of it. Behind this metallic wall, lived clean and sterile people. Outside lived muddy, and diseased people. The wall was built to protect the ones behind it from the disease that lived in the face of the mud. While the ones not behind it are infected with the disease, but there is a way around it. A young handsome prince by the name of Ryuu Heartworth, has never gotten sick. He was the eldest son of William, and Beth Heartworth. The king and queen of the lands below. They died when Ryuu turned 16, that was three years ago. His uncle, Brent Kaliway, is now taking care of the young prince. IndentThe Prince behind the wall is Eziektile Gale, who is 17 going on 18. His grandmother, Queen Rosalyn I, and Ryuu's uncle Brent have set up an arranged marriage for the two prince's. Neither one knows the other, or their gender, so a meeting between the two has also been arranged on Eziektile's 18th birthday. Indent"Ryuu, we need to talk," a gruff males voice sounded through to the kitchen. The man looked fair enough, as he stood near the stair way of the large mansion. His hair a clean brown, and brushed back in a fancy way. He also looked as if everything was disgusting to the touch. Indent"Yes, uncle," a tall young man said as he walked out of the kitchen. Hair as black as night, and not so well kept as it hung loosely to his shoulders. The elder man grimace at the look of his nephew, as if it was a soaked dog that has rolled in mud. Indent"You have been-" the black haired male cut in, not caring what the man wanted to say to him. Indent"Arranged to be married. Yes I know, I've seen it happen before with my younger siblings. No need to explain it to me," Ryuu said no caring how angry he made his uncle. Indent"You ungrateful brat," Brent said, and turned away from Ryuu. "There's going to be a-" once again, Brent was cut off from what he was about to say. Indent"A ball for us to meet, I've also known this would happen." Indent"If your so smart, then why is my dinner not yet ready? Or, do you think you've finally been out smarted by the oven? What of-" Indent"It's been ready for a while now. Serve yourself," Ryuu said and walked past his uncle to go to his room. He counted the doors as he went, knowing that if he didn't, he wouldn't know where his own room is. Although his uncle could always know where it is, and something has always went missing if he didn't lock it properly. It would usually be a deer skin blanket, or a note from a friend that has gone missing. Ryuu would later find the blanket in ruins in the trash, with his uncle watching in the distance. Ryuu would usually pick it up and try to mend it as best as he could, although it won't be as good as it had been, but good enough to still keep one warm on cold nights. The note, Ryuu could careless about silly notes, since he always went out to see his friend anyway, and if he didn't see them then they are busy with something else. A villager would tell him anyways, since it was a close community. IndentIt hasn't always been that close, not since before the gathers at night had started to happen. Everyone was always hostile towards everyone else. It was almost sad to see them like that. One day, Ryuu was by the lake watching the water, and started to play his harmonica it was a happy tune that he always played when out of the house. It was the only thing that has kept him going to this day, to play his harmonica, even though he was educated in other instruments as well, he much rather liked the harmonica best of all. Because his mother, and younger brothers gave it to him. IndentHis brothers had come out to get him, and heard the tune he was playing, they were happy to hear such a happy tune and started to dance to it. One of the villagers was curious as to what all that racket was, and seen the prince's dancing in the mud, the villager thought it was silly to do such a thing. But he couldn't resist the sound of the harmonica playing. He wanted to play as well. So grabbing his instrument he went out and played along with the harmonica. Soon others have joined in as well. Of course Ryuu was in his own world when this happened, and didn't even know what he and his brothers have started. IndentRyuu lay in his bed, once he had unlocked his door and walked in, locking it once more. He had started to look at his harmonica, which had earned the name, Magical. Ryuu had heard those sayings around the village, and he took advantaged of them and said that they were true. He said that this harmonica was magical, that it can cure any sadness, make you happy no matter what. And that it created the gatherings. Of course Ryuu only told this to the kids that had asked him about it. The parents allowed for this to happen, because maybe they thought it really was magical, or to just give the kids some creativity, or to believe in something. Something good. Which ever one it was, it brought life back into the village that Ryuu cared dearly for. IndentRyuu stopped looking at it, and started to play a tune. It was a soft lullaby, he remembered how it sounded, since he always played when ever his mother sang. It was her lullaby. He long has forgotten the words to it, but always remembered how it sounded. From time and again. Only peace will be brought. ((This is from a sms rp that me and a friend are doing, were so far into the rp now, well maybe not that far, but so far that some of it's been erased from my cell. So doing this from memory, and mostly creativity, since we had to shorten our posts. Much to my dislike, since I like writing long good sized posts of 4+ paragraphs when I rp. It's yaoi based, and it's about two prince's, and their two friends. The rest is a read to find out. So hope you enjoyed and I'll try not to talk to much. Peace))

We had to drop the server resources because we couldn't cover up the costs. Today we've tweaked the Apache in order to maximize the server's performance with its current, dropped resources. However, the forum is still slower and it's possible to encounter some errors now and then. We are still working on it. I'm really sorry for the inconvenience, we've tried to keep the initial resources so that the forum would run better, but we just couldn't keep it up with the costs and we ended up borrowing money to be able to keep the forum alive. Even now, after dropping some of the resources, the costs are still very high. We are doing our best to keep this community alive and make the forum work as good as possible. Thanks everyone for your support and understanding!

Thank you @rainbowman Oooh i love Viewfinder so this is awesome @1978

I have a few pets~ First my Cat, her name is Mandy and currently she is trying to make cozy on my knee caps... Why I dont know but in bed she ALWAYS goes for my knee caps! Then we have two dogs, a Rottweiler Lab mix her name is Jessie. She ate something yesterday that was stringy and I had to help her remove it... Ucky... I don't like pulling poopy strings from her bum... Good thing is it balled up instead of staying long~ And we have Colton who is a lab and Anatolian Shepard mix, but he looks full Anatolian. He's super protective and will drink anything you are drinking. He goes for moms wine and my coffee and my tea... Then I have Rose who is my pet Spider. She's a funnel web and I consider her my pet because she has lived in the same corner of the yard for a few years and I put one fly a day into her web for her. I skip some days because she probably likes her alone time~

Our new cat Sushi. We got her yesterday from shelter

Foreword: Thanks Key! + Pffft, first! How to rp without pissing off the partner? Or shortly: How to rp well? One word. Improvisation. Improvisation is what RP is all about. Even though people usually connect this word to actors who play their `shows´ on stage, you could think about your (and your partner's) rp as your `stage´. In a rp, you're the actor who will make an interesting, working play together with your co-actors. Though you better remember this: Improvisation isn't just a chaotic mess with every player doing their own things only. Actually it's quite the opposite. I does have rules of some kind. Real actors can't do everything they want in the plays either, even if they were supposed to improvise. They have to follow the basic rules of improvisation. Also, follow the premise! You can't take a story from future, year 2359, to an old pirates hip from 1800 -century. Putting some thought to this, it sounds ridiculous, and you might think "who on earth is that stupid?", but trust me. There are people who make even worse, and more ridiculous jumps on the premise.. *sighs heavily* When another player has said something, for example that his character leaves the room, you can't just write that your character continues talking with him. He has left the room for god's sake! You can't change it anymore! I've seen this happen on this forum too, (not pointing fingers) and it's never a good thing. I'm not saying that I haven't made this mistake myself in the past too, on my newbie times, but please. Try to pay attention to what the other one is writing. You'll leave the other player annoyed and frustrated if you don't. This rule also ensures that the rp is non-contradictory. This doesn't mean that the characters can't argue though. ("We'll go this way." "No we won't! I want to go this way") It just means that you have to accept whatever the other player writes about the environment. HOWEVER! It's totally acceptable if the host of the rp (Who made the topic and the original post) repeals things that don't fit in with the premise, or the whole rp. AVOID DEAD ENDS!! Now, to get more specific on interacting with characters: have every post you make in some way respondable by another player. It's pretty self explanatory. You want the RP to go back and forth as much as you can while moving the story along. Avoid dead end posts! Those are posts where no one can easily respond. Even if they are theoretically able to be responded to, it doesn't mean it's going to be easy and therefore fun for the other parties involved. It's a little difficult for me to give you an exact example of a dead end post, since it varies so much based on context. I will attempt, though. (Wish me luck! Thanks. I appreciate the luck.) So two dudes and a lady are having a pleasant conversation, when one gentleman makes a rather sexist remark and insults the lady. She makes a post where she storms off in anger, and the two gentlemen, who have nothing really in common, have a very hard time making conversation, and the RP eventually dies. So, where then, was the dead end post? Why, the part where the lady storms off! Although this is indeed a plausible reaction, it still causes a chain of events where ultimate end is the death of an RP. (Hence the name: dead end! Pretty clever, huh? I'm glad you agree.) What should have the lady done? Good question! In this particular instance, the person playing the lady should have told the insulting gentleman how insulting he is, and start a debate on sexism, or at least in some way continue the conversation. This is much better! Keep conversations and scenes going on as much as you can, but when they start to drag, transition easily and smoothly to the next scene. It's an art, so it takes some practice! So get out there and start practicing! DO NOT GODMOD FOR GOD'S SAKE! God Modders have been a burden of rp's for a long time, and they can really annoy other members who like to develop their story gradually at a decent pace, only for the story to be taken on an unusual sidetrack or finished prematurely and undramatically. Trust me, I've seen those people, and they really ruin my day. No-one wants to play with a God Modder. If you don't know what God Modding is, click this. Okay, well the opening sentence was a bit wrong I guess, of course roleplaying isn't all about impovising only. There are a whole lot of other things you have to keep in mind, but that's to be waited from the next guides. Remember that role playing is working together with the other player to make a coherent and good story! I could be nagging about things for an eternity, but I don't want to make this post too long, so this is how I could write it as it's shortest. Pretty simple, right? Just try to keep these `rules´ in mind when you rp, and you'll do just fine. This is just the start. A fore-scratch, maybe? I just thought that this would make a good opening to this thread, and to the flow of my, and everyone else's guides of course. I'm going to work on a few other guides, including `How to make a good character?´ `How to make a good plot?´ `What to pay attention to, when writing?´, so those are going to come up soon~ Just wait, I'm going to make a whole lot of these boring guides of mine. *Muohohohohoo~*

My answer is 100% no.. if it my religion well sometimes (i think only 5 % feel guilty) why do I have to feel guilty, when I found that yaoi is the story between two male that more innocent, pure and sweet better than shoujo manga onion0rabbit4 To be honest I feel more guilty when I read hentai manga, watch porn video (this is so real...I feel sooo regret after I watch that kind of stuff) onionn7

I love Yamamoto Kotetsuko's works! My favorites are Fukurou-kun to Kare and Honto Yajuu as well! *___*

I'm actually a practicing Roman Catholic (as in I go to Church every Sunday and pray everyday), however, the only time I feel guilty about reading yaoi is when I have to confess (which I rarely to never do haha) and when my mom comes to visit and I have to hide my collection. I'm quite proud of being a fangirl. All of my friends know this interest of mine.

i never have and never will feel guilty about reading/watching yaoi ^ ^

i want to say not any more ... but it's not like that . i know it's all because of our damn religious studies . i used to think that all the people that are not hetero are just some pervert . although i don't think so for many years i can't forget whatever they teach me in just a short time . of course it's getting better now . i don't really feel ashamed and i can even say i love yaoi proudly but to not feel guilty ... i think i need more time ...
