In-Character House Forums

Post by Koi-Spark »

You may have noticed that the in-character house forums (The Chimeric Embassy) have recently been unlocked for the opened houses (and KOES). Today, permissions were set so that anyone can view these forums, but only house members will be able to post topics there. Also, a "Members Only" sub-forum was created for each house that is visible to house members.

So your character is a member of a house, but you don't have permission to view/post on those forums?
  1. First, click on the user icon at the top-right corner of any forum page and select User Control Panel, as shown here:

  2. Click on the Usergroups tab, which should open the "Edit memberships" selection.
    Here, you'll see a list of house groups you can join. Select your house and at the bottom of the page, choose "Join selected" and click the Submit button.
    Your request to join will be sent to the group leaders - guardians and rulers of the selected house.

    Note: This screenshot shows all house groups, but you will only see currently open houses.
If you are a group leader and need to manage your house members, follow the same steps above.
On the User Control Panel Usergroups tab, click the "Manage groups" selection on the left side to add or remove members of your group.
If a forum user requests to join your house group, you will receive a forum notification (the bell icon at the top-right corner of any forum page) that will take you directly to your group management page to approve/reject requests.

We hope this will provide an additional route for in-character communication and resources that in-game mechanics (i.e. Mission Boards) do not currently provide. Keep in mind while in character to refer to these forums as the "Chimeric Embassy" or "House Forums" in the same way you refer to the "Notices and Edicts" or "Archive of the Awakened" forums in-game. Please do not use URLs or out-of-character terms like "website."

If you have any questions, concerns, or problems with your permissions or using the house forums in any way, please let us know here or via email.
