ok is a growing hostility between the RPGing and the posters of the SWC. I am speaking as the Jedi Representative for the RPGers, we do not see the reasoning for not having a RPG board. The old ways are over and the new has begun. The ways of the past are over. There are boards that have been deleted and returned that are doing fine.
Here is my proposal, 1 RPGing board, where all Jedi and Sith can train, battle, live in our own world. I propose 2 moderators, 1 Jedi and 1 Sith that way no one side can say the other has to much power. We will grow if you let up. I don't see any growth in the SWC. Please let us at least try this. I understand your reservations on this. I think that if we have stronger minded mods it will florish. That is also why I am proposing 2 mods not just one.
As Silky has said herself the SWC is not a RPGing board, so it doesnt make sence to RPG or train there, that is why we need a board of our own. I am putting this to you as logically as I can. I know that it won't be easy so I will take this as far as I can.

i strongly agree with b man's proposal. There is no room in swc for the rpgers to have their fun. They need their own space where the jedi and sith can coexist and rpg til their heart's content. The alliance and empire failed .. ..... this is true. But that was bc they were seperated in this board they will be together. I beg of you administrators to do this......

We did have one, it was called the Empire and Alliance. It attracted more traffic than some of the other boards yet they were sacrificed to save space. Bleh, since their demise new forums were put up.

If we are given a board of our own support will grow, we will gain our own following and an alliance between sith and jedi alone says how much we want this.

Yeah - I think it would work well. I've been in a few RPG's - they're good fun. It would bring NN members together even more - which is a good thing.

I have to agree with everyone so far. I myself was a "member" of the Empire and Alliance. And if the only reason you may have against a new RPG forum is because that "failed" (If you can even call it a failure) then i don't believe that is a strong enough argment because I believe the only reason it didn't have that high of a post count was that it was hidden.
And what about the space issue that you used to get rid of the A&E? I have seen a couple new forums go up such as wrestling and Harry Potter without getting rid of any other ones.
There seems to be a whole new generation of posters coming along also, and many of them i can see show interest in Role Playing. I myself role play all of the time in AOL chat rooms and AOL groups, so i would be all for roleplaying here.
I havn't been around Nightly that much lately because of my rigorous work/school/sports/band/college search schedule, and also, just a lack of interest. The only board i really visit now is the EU forum. I am on the Internet almost every night from about 10:30 to 12:00, which is when i see most nightly posters as well, and if there were an RPG forum, i would most definately be here.

Why are all the RPGing participants confining themselves exclusively to SWC? I'm honestly curious about people's impressions on this.

I think the reason why we tend to stick in the SWC because it is where the training takes place and its easier to bread new RPGer's because they go there to do their tasks. If we were to go to a forum such as the Cantina it wouldn't make a lot of sence because the cantina doesn't get the same traffic the SWC does. That is why we need our own board to set things straight, you get what I mean man?

Plus, when they closed A&E they said "just go to SWC" (or something like that)

Nope 'they' didn't. I offered the use of it, as long as it was kept down to about two threads. I believe EU, Lando, and Cantina were suggested, too.

i'm all for this. maybe you guys could even start more rpgs besides sith vs jedi. i say go for it and try it. i, too, was at the A&E forms. b/c they were hidden no one came to them, barely. an also i think having one board with two mods, one for each side, is a wonderful idea to solving the power problem.

Sorry Silk, its been a long time and 'I' forgot what was said. But 1 or two threads for RPG's seems to be cuting it short, which is why we will need our own forum.

We can also get more people from the other froms by making more games such as fantasy sports and Wrestling RPGing. It is done all over the net, I have been in a few E-Feds myself. Right now just 1 or 2 threads isn't very fair. It makes more sence to be in the SWC for RPGing because that is where most of the game is played.

Valid responses, seriously. Like I said, I was curious.

I've always said that RPGs in the Cantina wouldn't bother me, but I think the RPGers are afraid of some of the other Cantina regulars. That's somewhat of a shame, I think. Would RPGs in Lando create similar sitations, do you think? You'd think the "anything goes" atmosphere -- theirs or ours (albeit with an "almost" qualifier attached to ours) -- would be more open-minded...

I would have no problem with going to other forums to RPG but its hard to keep a game alive when the actual game is played in one forum. You don't see the anyone training padawans or sith in other forums. That is why most of the RPGing is done in the SWC...

What's so hard about keeping the RPG to one thread? I don't understand why you need more. One RPG, one thread. Normal topics fall under the same rules, why should RPG be an different?
Oh, and if you're looking for a forum to start a RPG, I think right here in feedback would be a good place.

rpg's re geting too big for one thread. plus people like dana get annoyed with them.it would be good for us to have ouur one place to get out of their hair

RPG board is an awesome idea. It wouldn't pollute SWC, but it would also be a very popular forum in its own right. I would really like to see this idea used.

Well Dana, you missed out on the A&E. There were only a few members who posted (probably only about 1/6 of posters if not less) and we had an ample amount of threads. It could work, easily.

Maybe some people like playing different generes of RPGs, i.e, science fiction, fantasy, medieval, etc.

Different genres of RPGs are different RPGs altogether, therefore different threads; and the one thread rule still stands. To have four or five threads on one RPG is ri-god damn-diculous. But, to have one thread per RPG is fine.
