Why'd they get reformatted?
The Quest Board post is so long that the original format (in edit mode) was hurting my eyes. :blob_no:

Does this format (above) look better if you try to quote it?

Using the quote / reply on the bottom right corner always works with tables.

But that's not convenient for the giant quest board.

The click-drag quoting doesn't work with tables. But I tried to restructure the table so that the format is still readable when quoted in plain text.

This looks okay-ish when you use copy quote. I think the original looked nicer actually, though that's just personal preference

Yeah, I'm aware that the original plain text looks better, but it's really painful to have that giant quest board post up in edit mode. :blob_no: Condensing it in a table really helps me when I'm still actively editing quests and need to scroll everywhere.

I think it's maybe the blue header section that helps (at least for me?), since otherwise it's just a giant plain text wall.

Use bold or something then. Like this:

Night Watch (25 exp, 10g)
Requires lvl. 1
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

  • Watch for monsters, vagabonds, and criminals.
  • Sound the alarm if there is an attack.
  • Stay awake and vigilant for the whole night.
  • Do not leave your post.

(actually i'm not sure whether this looks any good either, but at least it's copyable. probably)

I would also recommend that you put up a custom quest on the quest board about it :blob_hug:

Writing a quest helps advertise your plot to other players.
Thanks,I already post a quest but dunno if anyone want to complete it.

:blob_dizzy::blob_dizzy::blob_dizzy:

I can't decide. I like how this one shortened the entire thing by sticking the rewards in the header, though it gets more complicated with the quests that have more details rewards.

I like how the table center-aligned all the titles, because then it doesn't compete with the mass of these tags:

[/SPOILER]
[SPOILER="If You See Something, Say Something"]


Which are all left-aligned.

As are the Level headings.

Maybe we can play around with more formats.

What about this condensed format?

Night Watch (Scribel City)
Adventurer's Guild | 10 EXP | 20G | n/a

  • Watch for monsters, vagabonds, and criminals.
  • Sound the alarm if there is an attack.
  • Stay awake and vigilant for the whole night.
  • Do not leave your post.

Although, the downside is that the receptionist can't easily copy the bullet point.

I guess you could copy this piece when evaluating quest reports?

| 10 EXP | 20G |

@ohko That looks good! It doesn't show the level requirement tho

Why would the receptionist need to copy the bullets? It just lists the rewards.

When I'm a receptionist, usually I go:

----------

blahblahblah

*stamp*

Rewards:
  • EXP: 300
  • Money: 50G

--------

That last section, I copy-paste from the quest board because I'm too lazy to retype it (unless I'm deducting something)

Rewards:
  • EXP: 300
  • Money: 50G

I knew the guild was understaffed, I did. After all, adventurers are being told to review each other's report due to how to understaff the guild is. I was already helping out, so when I saw this request I thought it would be an easy quest~. Just go there be an errand boy, get stuff when needed, read stuff when told to, write down stuff when requested. I thought it'd be an easy 10G but I was wrong, I was so so very wrong.

The second I took the request to the receptionist, their faces changed all too drastically. From the smiles of a kind receptionist to that of a hungry beast that just saw fresh meat, it was like the faces of the people at the slums when they saw 1 copper coin or when the guys at the gang brought a new sex slave to the base. Honestly, I almost instinctively slashed my sword at his face. Though I guess he was able to tell that I tensed up a little there, he changed back into the perfect customer service smile of his and politely guided me to the back room.

If there was one word I could use to describe the backroom it'd be just this, Hell. I thought the ever high stack of reports outside was a lot but back here, the stacks literally reached the ceilings and the worst part was that there were more than 10 stacks scattered throughout the room. People were frantically running everywhere and I'm pretty sure I saw a hand stick out from the large pile of paper at the center.

Thinking this wasn't the right job for me, I was planning to run away. However, before I could even turn around, the receptionist that guided me lightly pushed my back causing me to take a step forward. Through pure bad luck, my foot ended up stepping on a pen and cracking it. The sound of the pen cracking caused all the people to turn their eyes to me

"Fresh blood?" One of them whispered as they saw me.

Before I could even take a step passed the door, the staff members caught me and dragged me to join them in Hell. In the end, I was only able to leave after an entire day of signing papers and checking reports. I'm sure I had signed at least 100 reports throughout the entire thing and my right hand was literally bleeding from moving that much....

"Please do come again! You were an excellent helper!" One of them said cheerfully as they showed me out of that place.

I'm only going back there if I desperately need money, otherwise, I'd rather collect herbs or kill slimes.

I think it's better? The horizontal rule and large font helps, I think, especially when it's tessellated like it is when I'm editing it:
