I'd prefer option 1, but I'm in 4 RPs already and am very busy with school, so I might not even be able to join at the moment :(.

Was that the one with Fallout in Europe, or am I completely lost? I'll definately join anyway.

I'm thinking about starting a Molag Bal Games Saturday. If anyone wants to do it before me, please, feel free to do so. I'd rather play than host but either is fine.

About Acunasti's proposal.

Number one, definitely.

I'd like to think I could handle multiple balls at once.

I think I'd like to try my hand at hosting a Molag Bal game.

I'd like to join one.

And write a story about it. Like the last one.

Anyone interested in a Halo RP?

Personally, I think we've reached an RP OVERLOAD. There are over 10 active roleplays going on right now. That is crazy.

I suggest we stop making new roleplays for a bit until things calm down. Because eventually, people are going to have their hands full with too many RP's (like me :lol: ), and they'll start losing interest.

Yeah I agree. I'm in both of Matt's, my own and POMC'S, and there may even be another one on another forum.

I don't know if this idea is too regimental, but perhaps we could use the Guild of Roleplayers to work out a 'timetable' of RPs, also looking at future ideas. :?:

That actually seems like a sensible proposal, my dear Dunmer.

There used to be a mod rule litmiting the number of active roleplays. That could come back into play once everything dies down.

I think we should give the users a change to organize this themselves. A rule is so absolute and gives people the feeling that it can't be talked about.

Well, it may be required. It's never been this wild. I'd say that there's probably 2-3 new RP's every month (on average). And with so many members joining these roleplays lately, the threads spin out of control quickly. I mean, I've gone to bed before and woken up to find 5 new pages had developed while I was sleeping. I'm not saying it's a bad thing. Active roleplays are great. But when you have 10 of them going on at the same time, eventually people lose track of what the hell's going on.

You've probably noticed this in a lot of threads lately:

Too true, I've been in RPs which have grown over 10 pages in a night :o.

Often, it's because of OOC spoiler conversations, so perhaps instrumenting an RP GD could help?

If a limit were put on the number of active RP threads, then having a separate discussion thread for each one would be more practical than it is now.

Maybe a community understanding would work better than a rule. Perhaps we can use the Guild to discuss new proposals and plan them to an extent. We could probably live with one GD, although one per RP would also be nice.

First, though, we'd need to revive the RP Guild and have everyone join it.

I mighty try to create something like that. A General Roleplay Discussion thread maybe?

Yes please, and get everyone hosting an RP to add a link to it to their OP, with a short description. (Yourself, Videogamer, Weasel, King A, Mars, POMC, jcnator, Duh and myself - apologies to anyone I missed)

Seems great!

Also, Duruza, did you just wake up early, or Have you even slept?

Well, the TA GD thread went off-topic dangerously fast. Just saying.
