Do hosts typically opt for Quicktopic Pro?

I don't think I've ever used it as a host. What would be the benefit?

I’ve certainly never done it. I didn’t know that was even a thing.

I think it's for the various chat groups. Mafia, the dead, Masons. Mostly Mafia, better than constant PM.

rose means the Pro part. I don't have Pro, so you should be fine.

I just tried to share one with someone and they got 'forbidden, you are not allowed access to this room.'

I see an option to "Invite Reader" (read-only??) and I did the "do it myself" option as I don't want to solicit emails. But I never got the invite email it mentioned. I double checked my email was entered correctly... still no email after two tries and 20 minutes.

I did not see any settings to adjust privacy setting for the board either.

Edit: Apparently I am supposed to use my emails 'Forward function' when I do finally recieve it. (hopefully I can just 'pluck' the special link and PM it to people here.)


Anyone else have these issues, why is this so complicated????

Normally you just give someone the quicktopic link, and then they post in it. Is that not working for you?

This, roseheart.  For example, Welcome to Paranormal 25 Deadchat.  Although obviously you'd send it over PMs during the game itself.

I am trying out a quicktopic in a nonmafia game rn.

Edit: OK, it may just be an issue with this persons' PC, I'll know more when another tries to join.

Same principle applies, just send the link to the quicktopic over PMs or post it in the main thread.

Yeah if it wasn't clear: quicktopics are actually just public message boards, the thing that makes them private is not knowing the website link to them. Just make the topic and share the url.

Loyal Audience Member,

ArenaCraft does hereby invite you to sit on the council of law:

https://www.quicktopic.com/[REDACTED]

Dear arena master,it looks like I need a proper invitation card to be allowed access to the law council. The animated armor guard just repeatedly keeps saying 'forbidden, you are not allowed access to this room.'
(Do I need something to access the quicktopic?) :D

Hmm, how about now?: https://www.quicktopic.com/[REDACTED]

I'll try to open it on my computer tomorrow as I'm going to sleep right now. The error seems to be with quicktopic website(not even their homepage or FAQ can be opened) or my browser. I'll hopefully fix it tomorrow.

1. Login to quicktopic
2. Click New Topic
3. Give the topic a name.
4. Create a post in the thread
5. Copy and paste the url from the address bar.

I just did the above steps, it took 30 seconds. Here's what I got: https://www.quicktopic.com/53/H/3FfBEgvqe7J6
