To the Mother whom this is concerned...

If you are worried because your daughter closes the screen when you walk past, trust me, it is not because of the contents of the message. No swearing, nor profanity is allowed in Skoki Valley. I happen to do the same thing, because.... well, personally, I feel embarassed about such things. Which is entirely natural. I'm sure that half of the players here do exactly that, since it seems as if writing this way needs a certain amount of privacy. If you have others looking over your shoulder, you have the tendancy to believe they'll critisize you. Not only is this site entirely child-safe, you learn quite a bit off of it. Ever since I joined, I've rekindled my love for this beautiful specie. Not only that, but my grammar, spelling, and sentence structure has greatly improved. My grades have not risen, due to the fact it takes extremely little effort to recieve an A in my English and Literature classes. However, I once got in an argument with my homeroom teacher, as she joked that I was barely literate, and was surprised when I sat down to write a few paragraphs. The next day I handed in two papers, each with a "scene" from an rpg site, that I had written on the spot. One was of dragons... the other of wolves. I recieved extra credit, and she acknowledged the fact that I was much more literate than she thought possible for one of my age. I'll cut this short, as I don't want you to have to spend hours upon hours reading all these posts... I believe you should let your daughter take you on a "tour" of Skoki Valley. I know people who are as old as my mom playing on rpg sites, and ten to one I'll bet at least one of them plays on Skoki Valley. I have a feeling you'll enjoy it, especially if you take time to read one of the longer, more intricate posts, and see what are daily lives are like...

A Sincere Player of Skoki Valley...
