Recently I've noticed that the roleplay has gone to sleep ): There are a few replies that keep it from actually being dead, but I wondered whether there were any ideas or suggestions of anything you'd like to do as a group? I'm not going to lie, I do miss the rp style of FF.net sometimes because I liked the closeness of our characters and how they responded to something happening on the other side of the castle, even if they had nothing to do with the distraction. Its just a thought, one I thought sounded like fun, but if you'd like to join me in this, just reply with what you would want this thread to be about :D
I've been thinking recently how fun it would be if Merik arranged for the coven to go to a private screening of the Harry Potter finale. The few I suggested it to seemed to like the idea, too, so I figured that would be my contribution to the suggestion pile. Costumes are optional, but hoped for! xD

I like that idea. Especially now that I have the app for pro-boards.

LM: Your idea is fantastic but if we do go through with it, I won't be in it because I won't know whats happening. (You have I have read the books but the movies always somehow alter way from the original source and this was already proven when Farrah and I tried to talk about DH; part 1.)
What about making a board/topic/whateverthebumblefuck that is just general? No particular time, setting, just anything. We could post where the character are in bold on top of the post(ex: Da Yard *then the post inserted here*) so everyone else has an idea of where everything is taking place. I think it would make it easier for everyone to be able to jump in and be more active.

I like the idea of a board for the kind of roleplaying where you just jump right in. Although, incidentaly, that's what the 'Open' tag means - that you're allowed to jump right in. I think part of it is that people just have a lot to do, so they're not willing to look all over the forum for open threads that haven't gone out of business and jump in them. So, if we had a separate board where people can automatically jump in without having to look for a thread, that could be cool. I like both systems, actually. On the old forum, I did like the speed of things, but on the downside we often wound up staying up till all hours, which is crazy, even if it is fun. XD It's nice that on this one people can actually pay more attention to each other and take their time with replying if they need or want to. So if we offer both systems - the one we've been using for the past few months and the old one - that would be cool, but I don't know how much of a change that would bring. I guess it depends how many people are willing to participate.
Incidentally, I think a lot of people have just been busy or needed a break from the rp. I know I for one fall into both categories. :3

^o^ thanks so much to everyone that has replied to this, it means a lot that you guys are willing to give suggestions that can keep this place up and going! <3 i think i'm going to discuss starting a general topic in maybe the alternate universes, only because it'll be an ongoing roleplay and that i have no clue where else to put it xD if there are any suggestions on that, too, it would be appreciated~
on needing a break or being too busy, i can understand :b i took a two week vacay to be with family and friends and it was totally worth it. i also understand that nobody can be online 24/7 and that asking everyone to be active is not a part of my job description XD take a break, enjoy your free time, get some blood pumping and join us when you feel you're ready to. i don't think we're going to be as strict with absences as we were in the past on FF, where if you left for three months your characters are deleted. i never really liked that rule anyway, and with all the effort it takes to fill out these apps, i think they're worth saving. have fun, peoples! i love you guys~

For some reason this topic makes me emotional >_>. I mean I know I haven't been here a lot in the past two months or so but life is going like 100 mph right now and I'm not use to so much happening at once. As for the suggestion, I think thats a good idea to get our characters' interactin' juices pumpin again. It was a big change from FF to here because it wasn't just one topic anymore. So I'm all for a general board/thread/topic thingyting. It would be great And I <3 you to LM and everyone else.

I had a thought. Group roleplaying has gotten a little harder now since people are on so infrequently. By group roleplaying, I mean a thread with three or more roleplayers. I remember on FF, if someone disapoofed we just pretended that their character had left or was just being quiet. So I was thinking we should implement that on here. If someone hasn't replied to a thread in a few days (2 or 3? 4? 5?) then the next person should be able to post without waiting any longer. Whaddya think?

I like Spazzi's idea!! And not just because she's my daughter x3 But I have realised how tedious roleplaying can get when you're doing something awesome and you're not even sure if anyone but you and who you're roleplaying with even sees it :/

WE NEED A CHAT THREAD! I cant use the cbox cause it says it's 'expired'. So we need a chat thread here and on FF to facilitate communication. :D I feel like a mute not being able to comment on awesome rp stuff I've read up on. Dx
