Ok, now that myself and Vegnya are the moderators, it's time to get set to work. So what I might do is a suggestion thread as to what the normal members who role play might want. Do you guys all think this is a good idea? Just an idea I had on my mind before we do anything properly for the forum.
 
Possibly. I don't see a large number of role-players anyway and we have a separate suggestion forum as well. However, this would present an easier way to ask questions about Role-Playing for all members and it would help the forums to stay tidy.

50:50.
 
I have an idea for Role Playing, but I think it will require a whole new sub-forum and a lot of work put into it. AngelofDestiny, can I get you on MSN to discuss? From there we could progress to setting it up if you like the idea. I don't mind helping if it's needed.
 
If nothing else, I am for it. Indeed the RP forum lacks the population, but there is the chance that there are some of the occassional "closet" roleplayers who simply just never thought of participating here. I believe a suggestion thread would at least catch their attention.
 
Then I'll set it up as soon as I can. I'll talk to you via IM as soon as I can, Vegnya. We need to talk about what we're gonna do, etc.
 
Oh sure, I wouldn't decline that because having a suggestion thread is always a great success to a forum so yeah, I'd say definitely go for it. Though just be sure to watch out the thread for any spam or off-topic posts as I've seen around here already.
 
I cannot help but forsee trouble in terms of RP rules. AngelofDestiny, in all honesty, I hesitate to work on this. I am just not sure, and am very indecisive on the range of strictness and leniency. However, I took the liberty of trying to make a set of rules already, and I can send it to you if you want to see it. Use it if you'd like, but I'm sure it could use some revising.
 
PM them to me and I'll review them. As for the suggestion thread, I'll put it up in the Library.
 
Aah yes indeed, 'closet' RPers, I am one of them. I love RP, but have been hesitant to join due to lateness [I'd have to catch up on posts to understand the story and school work is preventing me from doing so].
Perhaps some people don't join because they do feel they have too much to catch up on or whatever. I can only suggest to set up some new stories or something so more people can become involved :/.
 
I've put up the suggestion thread.

You know, there is a way around schoolwork, etc. Just tell the people around you not to post so much because you might be gone for a few days. And hey, if they post too much, just report them to myself or Vegnya if they're too impatient.
 
I did post some rules up before there were any RPG moderators if you would like to take a look at them, they are in the RPG thread I made in the hedquaters section. I made them ages ago for other forums, so I don't know if they would benifit here but they had alot of important notes that are essencial for a good RPG forum XP

All I think is that we should lessen the amount of forums that are to the RPG section, it is all a little confusing if you ask me XP

And a practice RPG section sounds good too, for all those who are a little hesitant to join strict RPG's just yet.

Hopefully they're still here, because I would like to take a look at them. I hope it's not rude of me to ask, but right now I'm writing up a new set of rules with AngelofDestiny's assistance, and I was hoping that I might be able to incoporate some things into it from your rules? Sorry, sorry, I swear I had no idea there was even any RP rules. >.<

Yes, definetly. I believe all roleplays, regardless of original or fan-made content, can be classified accordingly to their status of sign-ups and the actual RP. In other words I'd combine Cosmo Canyon and Treno as the dedicated sign-up thread forum; Terra and Alexandria likewise as the forum where roleplays are set in motion.

I think the Library is the closest thing to fit that need, but if a practice forum is what people ask for, then I'm for it.



Anyway, I've also begun writing up more drafts as far as RP Character Creation FAQs and directions goes. AngelofDestiny has been very helpful lately, and we get along pretty well. However, I would rather leave to her the decision on the level of strictness we should demonstrate. I have a terrible RP history on being strict, so I'm kind of using this situation to reform. ^^;;
 
Yeah, I'd like to lessen the many forums, too. Demyx, PM those rules to me if you can or gimme a link. I'll take a look at them.
