Post
A post is a submission with a description and an image which will be visible on your public profile and does not automatically disappear.
Story Differences
The concept of posts is similar to the concept of stories, however:
- Posts require an image, stories do not;
- Posts do not have wildcards;
- Posts do not have mentions;
- Post descriptions are limited to 250 characters, stories to 150;
Creating
Creating a post can be done by clicking the "Create Post" button in the top right corner of the page where all posts are visible. This button is not visible if your account does not have a public profile. This possibility can be revoked by admins too, which mostly happens after violating the Terms of Use. Every post requires the presence of a text, from 1 until 250 characters. A post also requires an image. The file must be in PNG format and not animated. The file size may not be larger than 1 MB too. Square images are recommended, otherwise images may not render properly.
Removing
The creator of the post can remove the post at any time. When a post conflicts with the Terms of Use, it can be manually removed by an admin as well. Uploaded images will be deleted when a post is removed.
Editing
After creating a post, it is still possible to edit it. In the early phase of posts, this was not possible.
Styling
Players can style their post description with special characters:
- Text between
will become bold,*
- Text between
will become cursive,_
- Text between
will become~
crossed out. - Text between
will become`
.monospace
View Count
Everyone looking at a post, signed in or not, can see how many (signed in) gamers have seen the story. Unlike stories, the counter always includes you when you are signed in. Viewers are currently anonymous for both visitors and creator.
Reacting
Players can react to each other's posts with hearts, laughs and dislikes. Just like the views, these reactions are currently anonymous for both visitors and creators too.
Commenting
As of April 2, 2023, players can leave a comment on a post. Comments can be styled the same way post descriptions can. Comments are currently not removable or editable after placing them.
