Revising Your Posts:

The last piece of advice I can offer assumes you write your stories "off line" either in a word processor or in an email client. When I have finished a piece, before posting it to the sim, I always check my e-mail to verify that there are no new entries that will force me to have to revise my post. I can give you an example... In one sim entry I wrote that my character was in Ops and as he was leaving, told the operations officer to contact him if he's needed. (a minor use of the Operations officer character). However, before I posted the entry, there was a new message just posted, that placed the Operations officer on the Away team on the surface of the planet. I was forced to edit my entry to simply replace the name of the Ops officer with that of another NPC(non player character). But had I not checked my e-mail prior to sending my entry to the Sim, the story would have put the Ops officer in two places at once. It is a simple and easy precaution and one that you should always take before posting.
