Most of you must know by now what a posting game is. In fact, there are probably few in the guild that don't, but I feel obliged to post this up any way to make sure those who don't know get a better idea of what it is.

But the following types of posting activities are also very common in forums:

"It's fun to write as a character in a story, but how would it be like to meet your characters face-to-face? We can't really do that in real life, but in the virtual realm of the internet, we can certainly try to emulate that situation!
Melody: Hey, stop hogging all the attention! I want to introduce myself.
Me: Just give me a minute to explain to them what this is about and I'll let you finish introducing yourself. lol
Melody: Aren't examples a better way of explaining?
Me: Yes, but...
Melody: Aha! You said yes!
Me: No, no, wait-
Melody: Hi everyone!
Me: Well, I think they get the point...
Melody: You think so?
Me: Yeah. Well, thats basically how it works. It can get pretty crazy when characters from all sides are included! This is just a fun discussion so i hope you join me!
Melody: You mean us, right?
Me: No, I mean ME. You don't exist.
Melody: Oh... yeah, thats right. O_O"
