Happy Disability Pride Month! Here are some updates on what is happening around Scripturient.
200 Member Milestone
In the last month, we surpassed 200 members! We love seeing all of the new members bringing life to the site and our hope is to continue growing our wonderful community.
We have a Discord server for our community!
You may have seen the news already in our previous announcement. As promised, we have created a Scripturient Discord server where our site members can socialize on a platform that is much more convenient to use on mobile (compared to the site's social forum). The server is active and full of friendly faces profile icons! If you are a member of our site and would like to join, you can click the link under "Announcements" in the sidebar of the index page or click the Discord icon at the bottom of the site. The link will take you to a Google form you must fill out before you can gain access to the server. We do this to verify the identity of everyone that joins and make sure they are a member of our site.
Login Issues
We are aware of a persistent issue for some of our members who are running into an "Authorization Code Mismatch" error message when they attempt to log in to the site. We are doing our best to resolve it and it has unfortunately thwarted all of our attempts so far. We are continuing to work on it and we hope to have the issue fixed ASAP. In the meantime, some folks have found workarounds that we have shared on Troubleshooting and Implementation Requests. We apologize for the inconvenience and the headache this has caused anyone experiencing it.
Minor Rules Update
We have updated our site rules with a section covering plagiarism.
New Subforums
We have added two new spaces to the website. The Character Interviews subforum functions similarly to our Prompts subforum. It provides interview questions for your characters to answer to help with character building and development. See How to Use the Character Interviews Subforum for more info! The Archived Announcements subforum was created to better organize the Rules and Announcements forum. Old and outdated announcements will be moved there to prevent clutter on that forum's main page while still keeping them accessible to our site members. The Help Documents for the General and Personal categories will be updated soon to reflect these additions.
Connect Forum Highlights
If you hadn't noticed, our Connect forum has been full of activity lately and we wanted to put a spotlight on some of our member-created social threads! Feel Good Moments is a place to post about good things happening in your life that made your day and Favorite Lines lets you shower some love on excerpts of another Scripturient member's writing. We love the ideas our members have come up with and their contribution to the lovely community we have here on site!
