Inactivity - How to boost.

So inactivity right now is a major issue, Naturally there is things that prohibit people from being able to post real life issues etc but thats what a departure and arrival area is for if you cant post in a while then pop it up there. So inactivity how is this solved well i have a few suggestions.

First id like to thank the staff that listened to the sites last problem and hired new staff, Currently it seems to have worked wonders for the most part. I would especially like to Thank Flamelunar who for me has definatly been the best mod iv seen around here for some time. Praise is much due to this particular member of staff.

So inactivity how do we solve this.

Well first off we have to have a reason to rp, Random rp's are fun and all that. But events are were it all happens. Now sometime ago i brought up the issue of events and were told something was already happening in Minoru, But that doesnt help people who arent in that area. On top of that a new region just opened up recently yet there has been nothing to draw peopel to visit. So staff if an event is in the works give us some teasers some bit of information if not let us know so us members can converse about ideas and possibly come up with something. Personally i have a ton of ideas that if given time to explain would hopefully bring more activity and reason to rp.

Story -

Each region needs a story as it stands none of them have any spark to them. Right now the site is not a site united it is certainly divided, We dont need to rp with other people because all we need is to rp with staff. Staff for wild pokemon staff for training staff for gyms staff for contests, There is no reason to rp with other people. Myself and Cyrus [if he ever posts -_-] are currently aiming to create a story in the region of Decolore, I feel as though there is so much we can do with adding stories and binding everyones times into one instead of having each person in there own little universe.

CONTESTS

Not in the original contest kinda way but OOC/IC contests were the winner or winners are awarded some prize unobtainable by normal means. Give people the opportunity to get excited about a one of a kind prize something like that. There are many things that can be done. Show people that there is a thrill in rp.

If anyone wants more information on any of these for example event ideas etc let me know and ill give you examples. Plus whoever is in charge of Delecore region id appreciate it if you got in touch,


Personally i also believe a logic based system would work much better than the current combat system but thats just me, I also feel that we need to be allowed more than 1 topic per character, I mean all you need to note is 1 topic can be with staff doing some form of NPCing while the other needs to be a free care rp without having staff so staff arent doing double the work for one person.

I'd say Flamelunar is the best mod but I won't because that would sound unfair to others. So to maintain my weighing scale, I'll just say that Flame is doing her job so damn well. Hands down.

Storyline. Different generations of staff members and members alike have tried doing that ever since the birth of this site and its ancestor. Even the brainiest of the members this site has ever had, failed to think of a storyline that ordinary members would enjoy. Either they didn't make sense or members just didn't buy it. But then again, I'm not the worst guy to comment on stuff like this so I'll just say that the staff hear your ideas out. Nothing bad will come out of it, if possible there will actually be a good thing.

Contests. I don't give a F about that. :P
