why we must grow with good coaching

invalid@example.com (JamesCrids) — Mon, 30 Sep 2019 16:13:07 +0000

Development is an important element of achieving
success and being happy. Not everyone who has evolved has
achieved goals, but everyone who has achieved success
coaching has developed and done a lot of work on themselves.
Personal development is on the one hand my way of life, but also my passion and idea for life.

ZEJ Twitter / Social Media ~ Think Tank

invalid@example.com (Nebulon Ranger) — Sun, 05 Mar 2017 20:15:41 +0000

A while back I installed MyBB publisher so we could publish new posts to Twitter, Facebook, what have you, but I didn't actually set it up completely (was lacking consumer/application keys). That's changed. As of today, you can follow our Twitter bot at @ZEJLiveTweets and receive news and updates related to the upcoming Statistical Roleplaying Tournament as well as Interest Checks straight to your Twitter feed!

Go follow it if you have a...

Google Fonts Suggestion Thread

invalid@example.com (Nebulon Ranger) — Wed, 15 Feb 2017 19:42:30 +0000

Finally got around to supporting Google Fonts today, however, to start us off (and largely due to the effort involved in whitelisting hundreds of fonts at once), currently only Bad Script is enabled globally. Ping me in this thread with any fonts you want whitelisted.

Minor Tweaks

invalid@example.com (Eebit) — Tue, 14 Feb 2017 17:23:12 +0000

Hey guys! So I realized that we didn't really have a thread for general tweaks to the site. Minor things that probably don't warrant the creation of an entire thread or anything, but still could be little quality-of-life improvements to ZEJ.

This thread is -- shocker, I'm sure -- for that exact purpose! If you see something that is missing or otherwise could use a quick tune-up, then post it here to bring it to our attention!

Note that this is intended for minor changes and...

BUG REPORTS: XENFORO EDITION

invalid@example.com (Nebulon Ranger) — Thu, 02 Feb 2017 18:34:22 +0000

You all know the drill. Report any bugs you find with the new forums and I'll maintain a list of them in this thread.

Grid Layout Poll

invalid@example.com (Eebit) — Thu, 02 Feb 2017 09:37:09 +0000

Hey gang! Now that the xenForo transition is underway, as the dust settles, we have some decisions to make. The first of which being, what do people prefer the forum looks like?

Historically, we have operated based on a "single column" layout -- all of ZEJ's forums are available in a single column, as one would expect from the name. However, in the transition to xenForo, and with the new theme that @Nebulon Ranger has purchased for us, we now have the option to display our...

Possible switch to xenForo

invalid@example.com (Nebulon Ranger) — Wed, 01 Feb 2017 02:50:02 +0000

I've been perusing other forums recently and have noticed a clear patter: most of them use xenForo. What is xenForo, you ask? Well, back in 2009, two of vBulletin's main developers left after the acquisition by Internet Brands and began work on a newer, more modern alternative with more features that would eventually become xenForo.

Now, you're probably wonder "why switch now after you've been using MyBB for so long?" Truth be told, while I adore MyBB and have...

New Theme for the New Year?

invalid@example.com (Nebulon Ranger) — Wed, 11 Jan 2017 22:02:19 +0000

Hey all,

ZEJ Standard (née Revolution Gaming, thanks iAndrew!) has been with us for quite a while now, and while it's a nice theme, the graphics aren't exactly easy to modify. So, I've shortlisted two new, modern themes to use as a base for what I'm tentatively dubbing ZEJ Standard 2017. One of these is Flow by HMR, and the other is the equally stellar-looking...

Bridge Between Skype and IRC

invalid@example.com (Eebit) — Tue, 18 Oct 2016 05:07:22 +0000

[♫ The Bridge People No Longer Cross]

So Krista showed me this tool called Sameroom ( https://sameroom.io/ ) that could bridge between IRC and Skype

I've tested it out on my own and it works fine enough, although we would probably run into the same issue we had when we tried bridging the two in the past (i.e. some people will be annoyed by the constant barrage of messages on Skype, needing to prefix the name using the...

Roleplay Archives and Handling Interest Checks

invalid@example.com (Eebit) — Mon, 13 Jun 2016 17:21:41 +0000

So something that has been on my mind here and there lately is the Interest Checks forum, and its relationship with the other "moving parts" of our RPing sections.

We have a Roleplay Archives section for the actual, in-character and OoC threads that have materialized. It has admittedly sort of fallen off. We (the staff) haven't been very diligent about moving the "inactive" roleplays into that section. But, all the same, we do have an archive for a reason -- to house our RPs that are...

ZEJ Podcast/radio show/thing

invalid@example.com (Rose) — Mon, 16 May 2016 17:50:02 +0000

The news topic should probably move or at least take it's discussion to another area. For that purpose, it can be put here.

Basic recap: @Jonno did a Q&A video thing once upon a time, and that has turned into a podcasty type thing idea. Here is the idea thread. Thrust ideas into it.

"ZEJ Light" (and Other Theme Discussion)

invalid@example.com (Eebit) — Thu, 28 Apr 2016 15:58:38 +0000

Something I have been contemplating and pondering for a little while is what people are thinking about our theme, ZEJ Light. Obviously, it is the default MyBB theme used for every 'fledgling' forum registered with MyBB software, except with the logo changed to one relevant to our forum name. And while this worked for a while when we had no other theme, it is starting to become obsolete.

So what's the problem? Well, I'm glad you're asking. Though I am one of those who uses the ZEJ Light...

What if in-character AMAs

invalid@example.com (Keileon) — Mon, 11 Apr 2016 18:26:05 +0000

This just randomly occurred to me but what if we had a thing where people could ask the actual roleplay characters questions and get IC responses

like for Jason we'd have something like "Incompetent leader with dragonbros, AMA" and I would answer questions as jason

Community Event Ideas?

invalid@example.com (Eebit) — Tue, 08 Dec 2015 18:15:58 +0000

So something that has been sort of swimming in the pool of my mind lately is that ZEJ sort of lacks a 'full-community' feel. Somehow, I just get the impression (and I am pretty sure that a couple others will agree with me) that ZEJ is slightly... splintered, in a sense, into various groups. This is obviously not the intention of anyone, nor am I pointing fingers to say "hey ur to blaem obv," but it simply feels as though we aren't entirely 'bonded' as a community just yet.

And that's...

"Mature" Roleplaying

invalid@example.com (Eebit) — Wed, 29 Jul 2015 17:05:21 +0000

[22:00] Were you serious about the 'naughty' RP are... cause I'd love you forever...

Poorly phrased IRC quote aside, D41 and Masq were talking about how they'd be down for an erotic roleplay around here. And I guess what my thought was is "why not?" If people are interested in that sort of thing, then I'd be alright to allow it here on ZEJ... but I was also thinking of revitalizing and old CoU-type thing for the purposes of this. A 'mature' forum, for erotica, and other...

R.A.Z.P.P!

invalid@example.com (Gold Dullahan) — Sat, 18 Apr 2015 00:10:09 +0000

You are probably wondering what the fuck R.A.Z.P.P is.
Well dear reader- R.A.Z.P.P stands for Random Anonymous ZEJ Pen Pals!

Basically everyone participating makes an email (sense this is probably easier than sending actual mail) and comes up with a sort of pen-name. There's going to be someone that's basically a GM (not involved in the actual pen-palling) who we'll be sending both the fake email and the pen-name to through PM. Random decision making occurs and then everyone is sent a PM...
