_{Boy likes girl. Girl likes girls. All that good complicated shizzness. You know those nifty and really colorful and complicated plot pages you find on all those graphic making sites? well, if you love those things, and we know you do!, feel free to post them here for the world to see so people can reply with their ideas and you can keep track of all of your plots.}

_{For some people, those gorgeous plot pages full of funky coding just isn't for them. Here you can post a 'plot train' where, instead of filling out a code, you simply discuss plots on a thread you make with a summary of your character and the types of relationships they want and/or need. Nice and simple! So plot away!}

_{Desperate female searching for life partner. Must be tall, dark, and handsome...Or filthy rich. Yep, everyone needs characters to help fill their plots up. If you need anyone, why not post up a want ad? We're sure someone will reply and your plot will be filled! It's like looking into the personal ads...or the penny saver...}

_{Now, now it might seem a bit ridiculous consindering how small the town is but it's one of the easiest ways to communicate back and forth overseas. Besides, your conscious and your feelings go on a vacation the moment you're behind that keyboard. So kick up your feet, grab your laptop, and chat away via the internet, because, who sends letters anymore? Snail mail is so middle ages. Get with the times!}

_{It's a wonder we call them phones considering all they can do nowadays. Surf the internet, buy movie tickets, or reveal your longstanding affair with the mayor's son when you're wife reads those saucy texts you've been sending back and forth. It's no wonder that these two inch drama stirrers are all the rage. Gossip, call, text, surf the web, do what you want with them but at the end of the day they are a necessity and no one can live without one. Post your cell phone page here and watch the magic happen.}

_{This works as a gossip board. Post here as a guest to bitch, dish, or praise each other. Anything goes but, as fair warning, do not trash a character just because you dislike the member behind the character. This is all strictly in character. If anything gets out of hand, there will be consequences.}

_{Got a song you want to dedicate to another character? Forget the song; got a whole playlist? What about all those pictures you took last year of you two being the best of friends? Poetry, books, love letters, you name it if you want to dedicate it to someone, feel free to post it all in here!}

_{When life gets tough, some people just can't seem to be able to express themselves out loud or to anyone in general. So why not write it in your journal or diary? It definitely helps deflate some of that stress building up on your shoulders. Or if you are super happy that one person finally asked you out, happily rant your day away!}

<sub>Post all the pictures of your character in here, that your little heart desires. Threads can be as long as you desire but just make sure the images are appropriate (we don't want Vanessa Hudgens-esque photos) and do not stretch the board. Our recommended size? 500x333 or 320x120. They're quick loading resolutions and fit the board's size. Feel free to comment in other's albums as well!

Rant about your day, about a plot you've just got to tell people about, or about that new cd that just came out from your favorite band that you think everyone should have the glory of listening to. here, you can literally talk about anything and it is all out of character.}

_{Just make sure your advertising board is guest friendly for us to reply to! Proboards and Invisionfree only.}

_{The town square is the heart of Eastport. All the major shops and officers surround it and the famous fountain in the middle is a great place for relaxing.}

_{Every town has it's cultural neighbourhood and Kensington Lane is Eastport's to an extent. The street is full of old record shops, vintage boutiques, and studios that are rented out to musicians who come to Eastport once in a while for inspiration and by inspiration I mean create their own grow-op in their flats.}

_{Haute couture is all the rage in Eastport. King's Avenue is the Place To Be for shopping in the central business district. Take a walk down... but trust me, you'll want Daddy's credit card, because window shopping will simply not satisfy you.}

_{St. Joe's is one of the most renowned hospital's in England boasting top notch facilities and doctors of the highest pedigree. Only problem? The best hospital in England is located in a town with less then 2000 people and two hours away from the nearest major town.}

_{This cemetery is probably the oldest piece of property in all of the tiny town. People from world war one and two have been buried here and there are mausoleums and gave stones for as far as the eye can see. there is even a section of the cemetery dedicated to pets. All in all, the place is peaceful, in that eerie sort of way. It's said that ghosts of tormented souls still roam the place at night, specifically between midnight and three am. It isn't unusual for the local teenagers to try and spend the night there...But crazy things happen and no one ever leaves yorkshire cemetery the same way they came in.}

_{The academy is recognized as being one of the leading schools in the UK with top notch facilities. Of course that might have to do with the amount of mysterious donations by anonymous benefactors. But who the hell's complaining when there's a plasma screen in the student lounge?}

_{Eastport's famous club. It's built right into the caves of the beach. Fridays are rave nights. Sundays are mostly concerts but any other day of week it's just an excuse to get drunk and jiggy with it.}

_{Back in the 1950s when the Beatles were in nappies, the sexual revolution had hit Eastport and nailed it hard (get my pun?). So to keep all the kids off of each other the city established the fun centre. A combination of a cinema and an arcade. It isn't that bad...except for the fact that it seems to take a bit longer for movies to arrive in Eastport. Then again, most things are slow to arrive here.}

_{Love bratwurst, David Hasselhoff, and lederhosen? Wurst Case Scenario is your best bet. This small little kiosk on the promenade specializes in German delicacies. This small little kiosk on the promenade specializes in German delicacies.}

_{No town would be complete without a pub and the Old Neptune's Eastport's. It's located on the promenade looking out at the beach. The chips and vinegar ain't half bad, the sausage is decent, but it's the pints that keeps them coming.}

_{The best surf on the east coast of UK and the beaches ain't half bad either. If there's anything the people of Eastport care about it's their beach. It's a national landmark.}

_{The train tracks were once up and in their prime back in the early 30's and into the late 50's but after a huge accident that definitely put Eastport in the news for about a year, the tracks became useless. Apparently, a conductor had lost control of the locomotive and crashed right on off the edge of the tracks and into ocean while it was on a bridge just getting into Easport. Everyone on the train had been the casualty of the incident and though it is a tragedy and the tracks are now abandoned, today, teenagers and young adults often come out to the tracks to smoke, drink, party, bump and grind in the back seat of a pick up... And many say if you listen close enough, you can actually hear the people screaming as the loud sound of the train turns the bend that killed them all...}

_{so these are a series of cliffs just outside of Eastport that look over the ocean and the beach. If you and your friends have the guts, which most don't, you can go cliff diving from the rocks, though most never go too high for fear of not coming back up out of the water. A lot of people, mostly couples, go up to the very top by the wooden fence and watch the sunset or have bonfires up there just in that curve of the road. But driving up there in itself takes at least fifteen minutes and the roads are all full of curves. It is definitely not a place to drive through if you are drunk or high, unless suicide is on your mind. But once at the top, the view is breathtaking. Some even say, on a very clear night, you can actually see the lights of London twinkling on the horizon.}

_{Hello gold digging ladies and greedy gents. This is wear the rich and loaded live. The majority of the homes are bigger than they need to be; some even having their own private roads. There are also a few that are actually large ranches, some estates...You name it, these homes probably have it. They throw the sickest parties and have the best property in town. Not rich? Be prepared to get snubbed walking through these neighborhoods.}

_{In the 1960s Kingsdown was a bustling hippy colony. After a while those hippies started getting older...they had children, jobs, erectile dysfunctions, and soon there were no hippies left in Eastport leaving acres of land for the government grubby hand's to scoop up and convert into row houses or council estates. But the indies managed to get there first, now Kingsdown is an artists retreat with a variety of short-term housing from cottages to mansions. You'd find anybody living in Kingsdown.}

_{Threads in here are set in the future, basically what all these loves, friendships, and lies lead to in a few years.}

_{Threads here are set in the past. They are moments which changed out characters into who they are today...that was profound. Wasn't it?}
