The Wren’s Nest
http://www.dm.net/~dream/index.shtml
Yes, Dreamheart, the Stink of Dog is Upon you! WET CHEETOS! It is I Goat-Boy who will be reviewing your site instead of Power the great one wise of the wise unholy master secret-lover I mean Father of my I mean Master of All and all who wait for the servant waits as the master waits(say those last 2 fast) hee hee, um.. ok down to serious business as Bane of the chalkboard one of the best parts of the site(and most updated since the patrons/visitors update it as they post) praise the Imp as well!
To start I gotta give Dream props for the Elanthian News Network(ENN), it’s pretty nifty even though it mostly has crap headlines or crap links to crap sites, most of which bitch about how they’re crap compared to everyone else as well as RP crap…
Site Design- nice bar on the left for easy access to what you want and catching stuff on front area after the welcome sign. Although the index of the site has stuff you can’t see like some kid’s room or something, mostly stupid stuff like the old game a day no one remembers. And most ‘rooms’ have a DR like intro to it.
Graphics- non-existent except for the one of the cover page of the site and I think the game has some
The Site:
Main Room- basically contains newest news some lame ass poll usually that’s never updated some dork who walked not in vain cause he got his name put here that he’s now in the book of Heroes and latest commentary
At the Bar- News, pretty well updated, usually has helpful stuff, sometimes stupid things mostly in RP voice (Dickwad walks into a bar and says hey Bartender you hear about the Hasidic Jew Football Player? Yeah he was Cut! HA! I funny, thought that up meself just now), but lot of it is I heard voices or some other normal room sound, sometimes it doesn’t have all the neat stuff. Other times it has crap that I maybe should care about but don’t, but for the DR freak you should visit this site or at least this section 3 times a week religiously.
Book of Heroes- view or add some no name loser to whoever walked list. Also have stories on some of the poor bastards who died.
Commentary- your usual jackass commentary from jackass RP freaks usually, not worth looking at unless you’re really bored.
Messages- people don’t post here as much but I guess you can sneak stuff in here you can’t at the DR bulletin board. But Dream makes you do it in RP. Also the chalkboard is here.
Chalkboard-giving this part of the message board it’s on appraisal, normally has stupid stuff from me DA goat-boy or the Imp, but sometimes has useful stuff. It’s the most fun part of the site, the most often changing, but notes don’t last long and are short (some dicks put messages that take up 5 slots or so) and sometimes there’s no room. Home of the Goat-Boy.
Library- normally DR must have stuff for DR freaks. Tome of Gods, books from DR here, Pentaith’s encyclopedia of DR, and a spiffy timeline… maybe should visit once a month or so to see if it’s updated. Worth at least one look. The only downside is a thing from Blasword on invasion critters (it’s basically the one from Power’s Asylum with some stuff from Digmo, Power’s is better though)
Chat at the Table- typical chat, I’ve never used it before this review, and no one was in when I went in, I’m guessing it sucks but might help during a crash (if you have AOL go to member chat room Dragonrealms, that one’s usually up during crashes)
Chalkboard- oh this did have it’s own section on the bar, oops
Tour Desk- links tons and tons of links, many are broken, and 2 lead to Power’s Asylum, 1 leads to the Apostle’s so that’s bad, but it has helpful stuff if you’re looking for anything (better than the links page from the DR site, that doesn’t even have the Asylum. Possibly the most comprehensive navigable list of DR sites.
What’s New- updated stuff, sometimes find updates to the less seen sections of the site, not updated much
Guestbook- the general guest book leaving notes of stuff and stuff, really long
Index- nice Layout of the site has what you might not normally see or want to search for which brings me to…
Search- typical search help you find past articles and other stuff
Help- typical about the site stuff, she uses Homesite (I didn’t care for it) and IRQ stuff I don’t understand
About- E-mail addresses and credits some other stuff that should be in help
Side Notes: Beckah’s room, what’s up with that?
If you put Powerhaus into the search engine you get 6 listings, one in the Scroll of Remembered, 3 stories, and Qi clearing house and her guest book… still don’t know how he got there
Rating: the Wren’s Nest gets 2 or 4 goat hoofs up(depending how you see it or if I’m half goat or all goat legs) and one shriveled testicle up (I’d get the other one up but it fell off when I was kicked there a few too many times and I had a bit of trouble with just this one).. Go visit and visit it often if you want DR news and stuff, and the chalkboard if you want fun.
Final Thoughts: Dreamheart feeds to the DR freaks so she has to put crap up, probably she likes it but who knows, it’s a great DR site and the best next to Power’s and the News is the bestest around, also I missed the 4:20 bus anyone know if I can still make the 4:13?
