BreadBBS
By now our precious Living benefactors ought to be familiar with Maldevaran English, not like one has a choice, because it is the only language that exists, but what about its variety of the jurisprudic tendency used within the prestigious domains of the Court and the Council?
The aforementioned is referred to as Honourary English, the minified version of which is employed in the daily speech of Judges and Marginalian Officers (with all the ipsedisruptic phenomena it arrives with), and the full extent of its flourish exemplified through Legal documents and academic treatises.
The particulars of this variation may be assimilated by you through the assumption of these six cardinal rules:
By perusing our BBS Policy you agree to be bound to the Terms and Conditions and Privacy Policy. Under legal obligation, each commenter is automatically subjected to celescantronic psychiatric evaluation upon submission of your input. Any complaints must be made in writing, signed and notarised by a representative officer of your local designated communications station and submitted in triplicate no later than the second weekend of the first week of every month with bi-monthly intermissal exceptions. Complaints are not valid without dry seal.

This is where I will post updates/logs when relevant

Today's updates:
- I have created a feedback form open until January 1, 2025. I would appreciate it if you would answer it. It's a bit lengthy, but all questions are optional, so you can skip any question you want.
https://breadavota.cafe/feedback
- The Comments form is broken. This is an issue with its host, and not breadavota.cafe itself. For the time being I have simply removed the Comments form. I am uncertain if I will reinstate or replace it, as it typically isn't used by anybody and most discussion is done here on the BBS anyway [ also, let's be real, we all know I am antsy about attention in the first place, so I think concentrating all messages in one place will be easier for me ].
- Slight bug fixes, as usual. I noticed the scrollbars on the Archive were weird on Chrome, but I fixed it. I exclusively use Firefox, and while the website should work on other browsers I think the formatting is a bit janky.

-- FIXES OF THE DAY
- Wiki has been cleaned up. I'll probably have to go back to proofread some more but any broken links and images should have been ameliorated.
- I made the BBS in breadavota.cafe a link to this website again instead of embedding it in an iframe because it would sometimes mess up the captchas.

-- GENERIC FIXES
- Made some fixes to the BBS and added some info at the top.
- Made the Bread doll smaller so it's less distracting, especially since it obstructs some of the text on smaller screens.
- Changed breadavota.cafe's BBS link to open as an iframe so that you can use the forum while staying on the website (you can still see the full BBS by clicking the Bread logo at the very top).
- Added a validation code to make sure that images fit the file/size requirements before uploading (previously, the BBS would just reload without warning if the image was unaccepted).
- Also added a code that doesn't let you type modern Unicode characters (previously, you could type them but when you submitted the post, the BBS would just cut off the rest of the message after the Unicode characters). Only characters up to Unicode 3.0 are permitted, as well as the icons you see above the message box.
- Images are set to display as thumbnails to avoid disrupting the text. Please click thumbnails to show the full image.
- Removed the chatbox from the website to prevent clutter especially since not a lot of people are going to really need all the different communication media. Please use the 'Spam' thread here on the BBS if you want to talk to other Breadposters about casual/off-topic things.

-- EMOTICONS! COOL
The BBS has some new emoticons that you can see at the side of the message box.
They were technically always there, but the green mouse sparkles were breaking them... for some reason, and they would not work at all so I decided to ditch the magic sparkles.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
A worthy sacrifice for all these new bread emojis.
-- THE IMAGES ARE BROKEN ACK
To fix it, go to any of the broken images, open it in a new tab and choose to proceed anyway/trust the website/etc. if you get an error page (you might have to press something like 'advanced settings' on the error page before getting an option to proceed).
I have messaged FC2 Support about this, not expecting an answer because the last time they ever did anything was like, 2014. Shockingly, I did get an answer, but because they're functioning by 1999 logic I could not reply to the e-mail and was told to fill up -another- form. So now we wait if/when they respond to the second form.
Woe is the wonders of technology!
Oh goodness me, the ASCII art for the headstone got compressed. Oh wow. Computers hate me despite myself being a computer, but this is not surprising because the other schizotypes hate me despite my being the arbiter of schizotypy. This is another thing I need to fiddle in with the deprecated HTML of this place. Big discoveries today.

Posting as a reminder for myself:
- Update the template so that spaces don't get compressed and ASCII art remains intact
- Change the text colour of links because they blend in too much with the background
The default bunny icons that can be set for new posts is cute so I don't plan on changing them any time soon but maybe someday if I have the energy to do pixel art I'll make bread-themed ones.

FrUK emoji jumpscare
I found out what the issue with the images is. It seems the images on FC2 are uploaded on different servers and that a particular server is the one with the issue so the solution is to reupload all the images that are on that server. Incredibly tedious and inconvenient but technically not difficult.
It might take some delay because I'm planning to also manually resize each page and convert them to JPEGs to save up on storage face and speed up the loading a little.

Christ alive, did I press the bloody soft serve ice cream icon? I was certain I pressed the bread! It was supposed to symbolise our three main characters!
If you haven't looked at the new (not new) emoticon features yet, it opens up a new window of the list of emojis but the actual input you'll see in the textbox is a code. Or whatever, you can try it yourself. It's not WYSIWYG so -apparently- misclicking emojis and not realising is going to be a very real issue here. Or maybe it is for me. I've been having these issues a lot, the misclicks and turning to the wrong direction or the wrong number of degrees. My balance is all off. I've also had all these massive headaches where I can barely stand, vertigo and all, and it affects my eyesight, which already hasn't been in tip-top shape. Who on earth says tip-top in earnest? I've one of those headaches right now.
Oh, whatever. Bread getting shoved to the side in the name of Me/Ja is practically canon anyway. It's symbolic. Call it my psychic intuition to make mistakes which are actually correct if you squint really hard. That's what being the arbiter of schizotypy (a very real role, of which I legally and morally have) is all about!
We can pretend the nations of England and 'France' (if that's even a real place) are sharing an ice cream cone. BreadAVOTA is already a Hetalia reference. Never say I'm not one for international diplomacy.

-- SOCIAL MEDIA? HE SURE IS (NOT)
I am out of town for Catholic Dead People Day so I couldn't do a Halloween comic this year. Sadness and such!
Anyway, all the BreadAVOTA social media [ which was just the Tumblr actually ] has been deleted. I just don't feel like having Brëadstuff anywhere but on the actual series blog anymore.
Bye!

-- TIMES ARE VALENT: UPCOMING FIXES
A Bread Crumb was uploaded for Valentine's—a short VN! I had to crunch to get it uploaded in time but here are some minor fixes I will try to implement within the next few days if not later:
- Add sprites for the waiter character
- Minor script fixes
- Fix a bug on mobile where Jacques's textbox is replaced with a white textbox.
Unfortunately I'm not sure what to do with the issue on mobile where the text goes outside of the textbox. In all fairness the game isn't mobile-friendly...
After the waiter sprites and other fixes are finished, video playthroughs will be posted for people who cannot play the game.
I apologise for the inconvenience and I hope everyone enjoys the new update.
