• Welcome to The Cave of Dragonflies forums, where the smallest bugs live alongside the strongest dragons.

    Guests are not able to post messages or even read certain areas of the forums. Now, that's boring, don't you think? Registration, on the other hand, is simple, completely free of charge, and does not require you to give out any personal information at all. As soon as you register, you can take part in some of the happy fun things at the forums such as posting messages, voting in polls, sending private messages to people and being told that this is where we drink tea and eat cod.

    Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?

    Should any religious body be the sole moral authority?

    Of course, strength and safety in numbers. People are always going to feel more secure when surrounded by like-minded people. Feeling like you're a part of something is a always a powerful psychological draw. And feeling like your orders are given by a higher power makes some people feel so much...

    RPG Maker Help

    Assuming that RPG Maker lets you display images by specifying where the top-left corner is (I don't actually know, but that seems common): For the x co-ordinate: (window width / 2) - (image width / 2) For the y co-ordinate: (window height / 2) - (image height / 2) I think. This is a sort of...

    NaNoWriMo 2008

    Point! You know, I'm not sure why I didn't ask him about that. :D! Feel free, guys. At time of writing, the file is here, and to stick one on a web page, you'd just use: <script language="Javascript" src="javascript-file-url-here"></script><script...

    Should any religious body be the sole moral authority?

    My take on this: if you look to some self-proclaimed authority for a predetermined set of morals handed to you on a plate, either you are not thinking for yourself enough or you are not being true to yourself. If you are not thinking for yourself, I consider this extremely sad. You are allowing...

    Yeah, I'm too good at that. D: I will probably get on IRC sometime soon. "Soon" here being a relative word meaning "within a few days".

    NaNoWriMo 2008

    Yeah, like Kratos said, I don't think the BBCode version has been redone on here yet. I'm using my original manual-update javascript version in an HTML sig right now. I could give you the code but the javascript file is hosted on my own web space and if everybody here started using it and...

    Nintendo DSi?

    Well, I have a phone with two, and I'm pretty sure the one facing outwards is also better quality than the one facing inwards. The reason for this, I always thought, is that the outside one is for actually taking photographs of things (you can see a preview on the screen while you're pointing...

    List of amazing video games.

    I was going to suggest FFTA, but here's one (or technically several) that I can't believe hasn't already been suggested: DS Ace Attorney series: A quirky, unique and lovable series which puts you in the shoes of a rookie lawyer and has you facing off against prosecutors in epic courtroom...

    Chapters

    Personally, I don't worry about chapter length at all. I just finish chapters when it feels natural to do so; it's almost automatic (which is more than I can say for every other aspect of my writing). Figuring out a plot overview is, at least for me, far trickier than figuring out individual...

    Marmite- Love it, or Hate it?

    I am indifferent. >:( But seriously, I haven't had Marmite in forever and actually don't remember. But I think I might have liked it. Might.

    Nintendo DSi?

    Regarding camera quality: some places I've looked at (Engadget, for example) are saying that the external camera is three megapixels. Who is right? D: EDIT: Hmm, there is a comment on there basically saying "it's 0.3 megapixels, update your information"... but meh, who knows?

    There is; it's Blackthorn Gym, Johto. Claire.

    Favorite Fictional Weapon

    Suddenly I somehow find myself unable to remember very many fictional weapons at all. For some reason, the Frostmourne comes to mind (that page breaks my heart every time I look at it - I waaaannnnttt ;;). I don't even know all that much about it, but it came to mind and it is pretty kickass as...

    Gaia Online

    Okay, so I tried to get my old account back but no such luck. Which is really unfair, because I never put a toe out of line, but eh. :/ New name is Ebonclad Enigma. I don't particularly like it that way; it's really more of a title than a name. But I see I get up to two renames, so I guess I...

    Sparky the Pikachu?

    Nah, I never nicknamed my Pokémon at all until maybe FR/LG. Calling a Pikachu "Sparky" is too cutesy for my tastes anyway (and unoriginal). D:

    Nintendo DSi?

    To those going "argh another DS, whyyyy, that's so stupid" or any variation of that sentiment, you know it was pretty much inevitable, right? It's Ninty. The GBA had three versions, as well: original, SP, Micro. The Game Boy had at least three but I'm not sure which to count so we'll leave it at...

    Nintendo DSi?

    I'm kinda torn over this. I got my Lite on launch and it's looking rather well-used by now. Cracked hinge, permanently mis-calibrated touch screen with one corner that clicks if you press it, the works. The release of a new version of the DS seems like a good opportunity to replace it, and a...

    Gender Neutral Pronouns

    Well, it's not every day a new set of pronouns comes along. Adjectives and nouns, sure; there are zillions of those and I commonly look to dictionary.com when I come across an unfamiliar one. But I think the first time I saw a Spivak pronoun, I mistook it for a typo. Even if they did Google it...

    Gender Neutral Pronouns

    I currently lean towards singular they/their. Yeah, it can make wording a bit more awkward and even ambiguous at times, but that's English for you. These invented GNPs seem like a good idea in theory, but whenever I encounter them in the context of a sentence, I find it a bit distracting, and...
