Is there some sort of unwritten time limit for astral board posts? I've got 5, soon to be 6, and it seems strange seeing my name on it so much. Should I start to remove older songs after a while, and if so, how long should I keep 'em up? I like the purpose behind them in character, but it seems that after 5 years (IC), they may not offer much help anymore. Coughts or Thomments?

As far as I know each note has to be removed by the writer or an immortal can clean them up.

There is no time limits on posts. (Just look at the oldest ones, and you'll see.) However, when you have enough material to compose a book, you may wish to transfer your songs to that medium instead.

Seen various lengths of books... should I start thinking about a whole book around 10 or so?

Sounds about right to me, but I'm considered just a newbie myself. :lol:

Any veterans want to step in with Comments?

Yes, don't remove the posts until you are ready to put them into some other medium. I like your work!

10 would work. Depending on how much you have, you could make it out of 5. I've seen 20 page books that have less material then a 5 page one.

I just love Othet's poems. Exactly what a priest SHOULD be doing, in my eyes.

Great job.

They are songs, right? If any of them are composed to fit in with existing bard songs, you could petition to have them become actual bard lyrics. The system is set up to allow more lyrics to be added either to the common domain of bards or as rewards to quests.
