    You might be able to draft someone in, once you've got something down. People are there, they just tend not to commit to projects they deem as 'going nowhere' - Once this reaches a decent stage I'm sure finding an animator or two will be A LOT easier :)

    Crimson, at this stage, barking ideas that come to mind is probably the best way forwards. Illustations of that idea would be great. It's like a think tank currently.

    Yes yes yes!

    I really need to take some time off and just think about things. Lately though, my life has been one hay of a rollercoaster ride. :/ Not that it's been bad, but it's been BUSY.

    Eventually I'll have a full fledged idea that I can suggest to you, Tyro. Just...not right now.

    Bah! Procrastination. Tomorrow morning, I promise.

    - - - Double Post Auto Merge - - -

    All right. Here goes. Finally.

    ♪Finally the moment has arri-ived!♫

    Just had to there.

    So here are some ideas. Not sure how amazing they are, but they are. Ideas, I mean.

    Ideas/Suggestions
    Perhaps the game could be made after the forums itself? For example, the RP section could be a whole world, and different RPs that actually existed could be little sections of that world. The Character Discussion area could be where the real characters from the show are. The art sections could change the look of the game, depending on which one you're in. One of the quests could be teaming up with the Moderators to beat down invading Trolls, Haters, etc. (These are all just ideas, I'm not thinking "what's impossible?", I'm thinking "what's possible?", yes?)

    Perhaps it could be somehow integrated into the forum? For example, your character's stats and backstory could be shown on your profile, it could be a tab on the top along with "Forums" and "Chat" and stuff, y'know? (Would have to ask Foxy or somepony about that...) Maybe we could have it log you into your game account if you're already logged into your forum account. (IOW, forum members automatically get their own account on the game.)

    Questions for others to maybe think about?
    Do we want this to be multiplayer? If so, do we want small, individual PvP duels, or do we want MMORPG (if that's even possible)?

    What are some possible storylines? Will there BE a storyline?

    Will this be an RPG? If so, will it be a Strategy (Turnbased, like Final Fantasy) RPG, or Action (Real Time, like Legend of Zelda) RPG?

    Will the multiplayer be competitive or cooperative? Or both? Or something else entirely?



    Please reply and don't ignore me...

    I can do editorial work. Well Word based editorial work. I can always take a look at plot suggestions and help think of plot suggestions.
    Plus my OC is pretty much perfect for a Villain role xD

    But yeah if you need an editor to go through any dialogue and make it read properly Im always available.

    The plot should be this.....

    The "Realms" of Everypony have broken as *Insert Evil Oc's* here attempt to take over the website. Then the users of Everypony (As their Oc's) find a hero *YOU* to help retake the website.

    *Not a good idea, i just came up with this in 10 seconds*

    Hmm. Something's missing. What could it be? oh, wait. You're experiencing a distinct lack of me.

    Anyways, so. The building would act as the hub area. What if each pony that enters gets a weapon designed for to fit their OC here on the forum? So, my guy would be a Pegasus with limited magical abilities and uses a controller to club people. I see a problem though... Each item would have to be made custom. This could be easy or difficult, depending on how the game is itself, graphics wise.

    Also. What if the forum and the game are connected? So, the game changes depending on what threads are most active? So, if one rp is more active than others, you see more of its characters. And, if someones are is more popular, you see more of it hanging up.

    Also, what if you could read fanfictions in the library?

    Just saying
