If anyone needs any code plugged into the forum or server to host an RP, just run the ideas by me, and I'll see what I can come up with.
SaS et al. (first mention of him on the new forum, we're all doomed) actually set up a lot of things overlaid on top of the IPB system to do RP-related tasks.
People also used FETO for the RP as well, and it was an interesting mix, and a main reason I'm holding onto the old FETO data post-reset and trying to set up a "FETO Museum".
Also, of notable importance, two things:
1. Modern browsers (Firefox for instance) keep the content of your textboxes in session and bring them back when you hit 'back'.
2. The "Save as Draft" button by the Preview/Submit buttons.
In the future, I'll consider setting up autosaving posts through Javascript to your Drafts collection and back it up using HTML5 offline storage, but until then, you can save your draft, and then continue to edit it when you're at a good point.
