ooc: *invades* I'm not sure what this is...I mean, you say you may be new but you're no newbie, and we all respect that, but you may not understand...
OOC threads (where you, the author, speak to us, the other authors) are ONLY in the Muggle World. IC threads are everywhere else. It is practically illegal, and overall disliked, when people post threads totaly unrelated to the area and/or the general story. I figure you know the story. If not, don't ask me, because I'll bore you to death for hours.
You are right now at the Lake. The Lake is a giant, big, pool of water outside the school. There are some rocks, and a bit of a beach on the side of it. Some trees too. Now, if you want to make an RP post, it'd be like this:
Talon walked over to the Lake, looking within the glassy clear surface of the water. Rocks and sand littered the bottom, and he could almost see a tiny crab scuttling along below. Talon, having nothing better to do seeing how he was technically supposed to be sealed within a tomb, sat down upon a large boulder and watched the crab scuttle along. Today would be a day with no troubles. The sun shone in the sky beautifully, as if Winter's chill was to be warded off as long as possible. A smile crossed his face.
There, that's a snippet of an IC post. And...if you read all this, I congratulate you - you aren't a newbie. At all. Now forth young Angelique! Seek thy fortunes! *charges off*
-exeunt-
edit: Oh...I guess I didn't wait. Well then I'll add in - if you want to say something ooc, simply put at the top of the post you make "OOC" and your comment. When you return to your character, say "IC". Okay. Ta.
-exeunt again-
