PrimalFear Posted March 14, 2011 Report Share Posted March 14, 2011 Did the club Die? It seems like everytime I manage to post here no one comments back for like a week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadow Zero Posted March 14, 2011 Report Share Posted March 14, 2011 Could be that it's just nobody has anything to say at the moment? Or it could be that this club has run its course, what with rp's constantly dying and not having an rp that anyone here is in right now. Or it could be something else. Who knows?

Jake the Sage Posted March 14, 2011 Report Share Posted March 14, 2011 I think it's the fact other clubs are doing practically the same thing . . . and none of us just are speaking in here anymore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sploda Posted March 14, 2011 Report Share Posted March 14, 2011 Well Primal, with YCM Rping going down the toilet we must find new places to meet. I'll be moving all my RPs to RPNexus from now on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake the Sage Posted March 14, 2011 Report Share Posted March 14, 2011 I refuse too . . . I'd rather be the last shinning candle in an old building than the new candle in a newer place- the prior has more esteem to it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadow Zero Posted March 14, 2011 Report Share Posted March 14, 2011 Well spoken Jake. Personally, I think allof YCM is starting to go down the toilet. Shame, really. I kind of liked being here.

Jake the Sage Posted March 14, 2011 Report Share Posted March 14, 2011 Repeat post . . . And the ONLY reason YCM is going to hell in a handbasket is because YCMaker isn't doing his job, neither is Falling Pizza . . . but that ain't as important as the actual creator <_< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a community, the fact that we don't care enough to see roleplays through to the end is OUR fault, and ours alone It's our responsibility ....Hell if you want a complete roleplay so badly why not go for a Fan Fic?

Jake the Sage Posted March 14, 2011 Report Share Posted March 14, 2011 For a minute there I thought some n00b just hopped one . . . Proto change the name back, I BEG you (=_=) But the techniqual problems was what I was refering too mostly, but either way I do stick around until the end of the roleplay or it's death. So don't begin to lecture me about staying and what not, preach it to those who actually Do thatnot trying to sound mean, but I'm probably the last person you need to tell that.

Besides, the thought that we'll be able to finish a roleplay with the same people with just a different forum is.... kinda deluded. But whatever, my point is just complaining about a roleplay isn't gonna fix the problem. You need people. Unfortunately with the new ideas of non-YCM/roleplay communication (MSN/Duel Monsters Genesis), plus the fact that the Advanced Format makes it harder to roleplay like we used to (and the fact that we can just *roleplay like this lazily* without going through the hassle of a app and stuff). Makes things a bit harder ya know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake the Sage Posted March 15, 2011 Report Share Posted March 15, 2011 I'll agree since the Advance Clause was created not a lot of people Roleplay like they used too, but the main fact is people don't want to stick around as you already said.

You were blaming it on YCMaker and Falling Pizza when FS (Yes Proto I am calling you a variant of Fluttershy from now on.) said that it was our faults, not YCMaker and FP.

Hell it's taken two years, on and off, to get Struggle of Powers I to almost be finished (=_=)Honestly, the formal roleplay is dead now Despite many attempts at ressurection It keeps burning down to the ashes... I admit, I was the cause of some of the burning myself But also, new mechanics, like Godmodding, however acceptable they may be, kinda discourages people from ya know, having as much fun as possible. .... Probably not the best time to say this, but if we REALLY want the roleplay to be reborn, we're gonna have to start again. That means revoking all the rules to encourage newcomers. Then slowly, bit by bit, enforcing them until they become second nature. The fact that there are real regulations (I can understand keeping it PG-13) ...kiiiinda denies the purpose of roleplaying which is having fun The more rules, the more it becomes a chore.

Jake the Sage Posted March 15, 2011 Report Share Posted March 15, 2011 I completely agree, in fact me and my confidant (a friend who's the best roleplayer from another web site) has stated more than once that YCM has too many rules and that to have Roleplay get reborn the way it was we'd need to do just what you said. However I think Airspace, being the ONLY Roleplay Mod, would even think about doing that let alone acting on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Proto Posted March 15, 2011 Report Share Posted March 15, 2011 Sessions? Okay you COMPLETELY lost me with that part.I mean... umm.... A earlier suggestion was for Roleplay to have a Sub-Forum devoted to non-advanced clause roleplaying. Due to the OOC sub-forum this is no longer out of the question... I'm suggesting that we prove that we CAN keep a non-Advanced Clause thing stable. By doing it in the Games section. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake the Sage Posted March 15, 2011 Report Share Posted March 15, 2011 Ah, that makes sense . . . think others'd be keen on doing it?Or that the Mod there, I think it's Opalmoon, would mind? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrimalFear Posted March 15, 2011 Report Share Posted March 15, 2011 Unfournately, their is NO and I mean NO way YCM will bring the Basic rp section back. As a member of the original style of Roleplay here as with alot of you I'm sure we can all say even though its very discouraging that Basic style roleplaying was fairly bad. I can name atleast 20 bad things wrong with it. Then again Advanced rules are almost just as bad, though it enforces people to become better and over all inprove the quality of the roleplay it greatly discourages new comers who have never roleplayed and the old members less attracted to alot of the Roleplays, because the lack of the older better roleplayers that left or refuse to play with the newer members who have yet to learn the right way to do things. In short theirs was a very limited amount of options to choose from when dealing with the Advanced clause and roleplay's here in general. Option 1: Quit Roleplaying - Which most people would and did refuse.Option 2: Go on roleplaying and deal with the newbies and deal with the dying of Roleplay's. - Unfournitly what most of us have done, but then again nothing is benig done to help the section.Option 3: Open a roleplay teaching club, or something else associated with helping the newer members. Which I've seen atleast 4-5 of them fail quite quickly, in particular Rinne's RP Club, The Teaching "TAG" roleplay's that where meant to help teach, Jake's Teaching Club which lacked participation on many levels, myself included, and then my Idea of rating the Roleplays to try and help improve the overall concepts of the roleplay's as well as teaching and showing members what we thought where decent roleplay's to join.Option 4: Create your own forum dedicated for roleplaying, in which you can create your own roleplaying rules & guidelines, and allow what you want. - Which is what I did with the help of Black & Andx and the countless number of members who have participated in it weather a single post or 600 it didn't matter because I took everyone's opinion in and made the best decisions based on you guy's. I'm not saying you have to create a forum or join another forum to get good roleplay's. Jake, Andx, Black, so on and so on, many people here can make awesome roleplay's. The problem lies in the participation, which is where a small forum where everyone knows each other and are all friends would help benifit the roleplay's that acctually get started. Anyway's now that that is finsihed, dopes anyone care to comment on my roleplay idea? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Warden Posted March 15, 2011 Report Share Posted March 15, 2011 You guys can keep planning and planning ideas, but let's to be honest, how are you going to execute them? Rinne is our only standing RP mod, and there is Shadius, a once RP mod. It's too much work to rebuild the Roleplay area. Sure, you could delete all the posts and create some new rules, allow for a fresh start...but it's too much work for one person. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
