I'm am looking into reskinning the board.
Just because I want to.
I'm going to see if I can find something a tad more... savanna-y.
Also, at the request of a few people (like, two) I'm going to bust my butt further to get things to a better point.
Some things I am planning on:
Setting up the current character base as 'adoptables.' Basically, those characters who aren't cast I'm going to place in the Application thread. Anyone who is interested can send me a PM (I believe guests can do this, no?) with their email information and all that happy jazz, and it will be a first come first serve sort've thing (unless the character is a King/Queen/Prince/Dominant). This might work better than the current system.
Thoughts and/or suggestions?
I already mentioned reskinning...
Oh, last thing was locking the old threads if no one wanted to continue them. If there is interest still by all means keep RPing. If not I will lock them at some point.
Does anyone have any thoughts on the general state? I realize now that while I had been trying to create a forum that was not stringent and easy to use (but would end up looking the same because people would be approaching things the same way), I ended up making a stringent forum that crashed pretty darn quick. My goal was to fill out the current family trees, get an established player base, then future character requests would be easier for people to get into. basically, just a application post and an approved stamp. It's a lot tougher with a forum mentality rather than MUCKing.
And this had been brought up many times but those who, as Amadi said, 'cut their teeth' on MUCKs aren't really drawn to forum RP but for those of us *cough*me*cough* who don't have much time anymore to chill at the computer and RP, this format really works.
Again, I call for thoughts, comments, concerns? Assuming, you know, I have players, even?
Love you all,
