    The roleplay forums seem to be gaining popularity recently. I just wanted to say if anyone has any suggestions on how me might make them easier/cooler or more convinient to use, we'll be happy to look at implementing them, be they rules, features or something else entirely.

    It can't hurt to suggest!

    Happy Roleplaying!

    I think it would be kinda cool if maybe there was an official RP forum artist. Someone willing to take the time to draw anyone's OC if they so request it.

    If anyone was willing to offer their services to you, that would be grand! I find it hard to believe many if any would do this without some kind of payment, however.

    Such as me, for instance? I must admit I'm curious onto how you would portray me... (Propably Facade and Snow as well. If they want one.)

    Oh god I could never assume a portrayal of a person's OC, that would be completely messed up.

    Instead what I plan to do is ask for a brief summary on the stance and mood of the picture and put in a personal touch about how I feel.
    I should open a thread for this soon.

    I have noticed a few new things and will write the rules up on them and then send them to and admin, comunity patrol, or mod whenever I get them done.


    . . .RP mod/adimn/advisor, just throwing it to the wind here.

    let me come up with the second grouping of rulings and then I will tell ya.

    Oh and I just thought of this, should there be a Role Play categorization?

    ^ I think that would be handy.

    (Sorry if I might be speaking out of turn. I probably don't have much clout here.)

    If the Role Play section could be catagorized into Casual Role Plays and Action/Adventure Role Plays that might be a start. . . Great now I'm thinking of rules for these -_-

    I would like to have a seperated area for discussions and character sheets, so these aren't always mixed into the RP threads.

    Not a bad idea as this would help clean up the RP section and make it easier to use for others.

    Until something like this happens, perhaps we could mandate tags in the posts describing the genre, and to also include similar tags either in the title or in the top line of the post.

    Possible subsections for different genres of RPs.
    I have no idea if subsections go down that much though, yet it's worth bringing up considering how popular this section's become recently.

    at the least the two different types of RP subsections that I listed above would be nice for the moment.

    Now all we do is wait. :3
