ALRIGHT Y'ALL. The log files are complete.

Special thanks to our lovely code dragon Kehvarl for helping me compile a full log to save me the trouble of clicking through every single individual logfile! <3 I know you won't see this Kehv, but you're the best code dragon ever!

HERE is a link to the full log of the Iwaku Inn. It dates as far back as 9:42am (server time) on June 18, 2013, and is complete up to the last bit of RP that I did with Miglo last night, 4:30am on August 9, 2015. Feel free to bookmark it; I will update this specific file so the link should always remain the same.

I am going to do my damndest to keep this thing updated regularly. That way you can easily search it for interactions your characters have had, or can read up on things you might have missed!

Tagging people (in no particular order) who might find this useful:
@Esthalia @Fiona @The Returner @Hirohashi @Rain of the Night @Touch of Insanity @Red Velvet @Tribs @Spammy @F0X @Dawn @Lovelessesbutterfly @Dedtoo @LaharlSama @Mglo

Be warned: this is a really big file for a word document. It currently sits at almost 11 mb, is 7,294 pages long and contains 4,280,304 words.

If you want to search it, I suggest you download it. Also, for the sake of file size, none of the colors or other formatting carried over.

ATTENTION ALL INN ROLEPLAYERS​

It has come to my attention that some people are finding situations at the Inn to be unfavorable and that the inn is becoming a venue for a lot of one on one only interactions. I've been notified they are starting to feel ostracized because they feel they cannot integrate their characters into the flow, plots, or conversations that may be going on. I do not like to candy coat things, but I do not want anyone to feel uncomfortable RPing at the inn at ANY time, so:

I would like to clear some things up for everyone:

1) One on One role playing at the Inn is just as large of a part as group playing- The Inn is a social setting where ALL characters of ALL types may come in (randomly or planned) and play with as many, or as little other characters as they want.

2) We have an OOC box for a reason- The Inn has a nifty little chat underneath it for people to discuss their openness or their desire for one on one or group role play. I cannot and will not force people to play a certain way, that is why we leave the inn open for ANY kind of interaction that may be wanted by each individual player. I will recognize that people have preferred partners or favor one X one more than anything else- again, I cannot make them do anything they don't feel up to (All I can do is promote people to play with everyone, which I do).

3)I want you all to understand that it is absolutely impossible for me to make everyone happy. For example- people feel there may be too many one x one plot lines that they cannot join, if i make group events, people will feel left out because they are uncomfortable in heavily social situations. Some players get intimidated and assume they cannot play or are not welcome to play because there is a large group interacting. The inn is ALREADY open to group and one X one RP plots, you just need to create them (whether it is done randomly or with friends, same way for the one x one plots)

4) People are feeling like their characters are being ignored or don't fit in- The inn has many players that not only offer to play with others, but offer to work characters into their conversations. I see this on the daily and make sure to extend the courtesy myself as often as I can. This said, I have a section about this very issue in the Inn description. " Like in Real Life, a character may not be able to acknowledge or notice your character immediately because they are engaged in doing something else. (For example a new character walking in to the room, but the other characters arguing about muffins and do not see them.) Don't get discouraged if you go can't get someone to interact with you right away. Just keep posting and doing actions with your character, or even approach others who also seem to be idle and it WILL happen." You can not expect other players to drop what they are doing and give attention to your character simply because you log them in. Use the OOC box to work through these issues instead of letting them bother you or compromise the fun you may be able to have in the future.


All of these things said, I would like to repeat that the Inn is a highly social RP and it REQUIRES you to work with other players to create interactions. This rp is about character development and reaction in the truest form. I'm sad to hear that people are feeling left out, but those are the times where you should speak up and ask other players to include you, not lurk in the shadows, wanting to play, but feeling offended instead. I've seen this happen so many times before and there is simply nothing more I can do other than remind people that the inn is what it is; keep the line of communication open and try your best to include others and expand your horizons.


I want to thank everyone who has made the inn what it is and everyone who continues to help me make it better than it was before. If anyone has any issues with anything in the future I do hope that they will come to me about it so we can work through whatever may need my attention.

Xoxo Esthalia

Hellpppp!!! I'm on mobile and when the chat got too big I couldn't see it so I went full screen mode and I had to re login, so there was two of me. Then I couldn't see OOC. Then my iPad crashed. ;(

Helllppppp what do I do to get back in the Inn?
 
@Zek the chat doesn't play nicely on mobile / tablet most of the time. It can be worked but it's uuuusually much easier on an actual computer!

The problem is that, like you said, full-screen mode prevents you from using the OOC. If you can manage to have separate tabs, you can keep one on full-screen and another on the chat box so that you can still see the OOC box!

That's what I started to do, but since I'm on mobile I can't even type in the OOC chat.
 
Am I able to jump in with my Sonic OC Seras? She's a Vampire Cat and if anyone wants to see what she looks like and what she can do, I can put up her character sheet.

If you mean an actual cat then no. If you mean anthrocat (or cat person/Neko), then yes. I do not see any problems with that as long as you make sure to read all the rules of the chat. They are listed above the chat box on the Inn page.
 
ATTENTION ALL INN ROLEPLAYERS​

I've been getting a lot of feedback that has been troubling me and has made me realize that this roleplay I've tried so hard to preserve and keep alive is starting to slip...

Please remember that the inn is not all about giant story arcs. It is also about small interactions and the over all development of characters.

This brings me back to the same point that I've been trying to reinforce for a very long time: the inn is for GROUP & INDIVIDUAL interactions. It is very encouraged to involve as many people into your rp. For example- If you are all in the same room, you can interact via many senses: Sight, Smell, Sound, and probably more depending on character type (could be some sort of molecule tasting, mystical magical, timey wimey monster for all I know).

Just please, PLEASE, remember that the Inn is NOT just a space for you to accomplish your one x one plot lines.

If you are not going to involve other people, you may as well be just writing a forum rp with a partner.

In addition, the sexual themes of the inn have changed quite a bit and I want to remind everyone that smut is not required, but it is a major part of the roleplay. Romantic smut is not the only kind that we have, crazy spontaneous smut is encouraged as well, though some may not be fond of it. The inn was founded on spontaneous debauchery, and I don't see why that has become so uncommon.

The inn was created to be a space where people could come and play together as easily as possible and create wonderful memories for their characters together. Characters of any personality or breed could come together to literally come together; pun completely intended. I'm not really sure where along the lines it's lost itself , or forgotten it's design, but I need to start taking hold of this and help steer it back in the right direction. ( I do blame myself a bit for not being around much to reinforce this spirit, though I know my spotty schedule isn't all to blame)

The Inn is a public space room where groups are supposed to interact, people doing too much one on one playing defeats the purpose of the room...It is because of that reason that a new rule has been created for this RP.

From now on, please take any long going or plot heavy arcs to the bordello or any other fitting room. If you are a part of a plot that does not include a group or is not welcoming to a group setting, please free up the space in the Inn by choosing another room to play in.


Please be courteous and kind to those around you looking to take advantage of the inn's open and ongoing atmosphere.


If anyone has any questions regarding this, please send me a pm.

thank you

Esthalia XoXo

It seems that a lot of the Inn players have misunderstood my last post and focused on certain things instead of the whole message. I'm going to try and explain everything in very simple points.


-THE INN IS FOR BOTH ONE X ONE RP AND GROUP RP. IT ALWAYS HAS BEEN AND ALWAYS WILL BE.


-ALL I'M ASKING IS THAT PEOPLE DON'T PARTNER OFF ALL THE TIME AND EXCLUDE THEMSELVES FROM POSSIBLE GROUP INTERACTIONS.


-I'M PROMOTING GROUP RP BECAUSE IT IS IMPORTANT AND ESSENTIAL TO THE INN AND WHAT THE INN WAS CREATED FOR.


-IF YOU HAVE LONG ONE X ONE SESSIONS, PLEASE TAKE THEM TO ANOTHER ROOM SO THEY DO NOT CROWD THE BOX WHERE MORE PEOPLE COULD BE PLAYING AS A GROUP (OR SO IT IS NOT SO OVERWHELMING). (THIS MEANS IF THIS IS A CONTINUOUSLY RUNNING ONE X ONE WHERE YOU DO NOT WANT PEOPLE TO INFLUENCE YOUR PLOT OR YOUR ONE X ONE INTERACTION, MOVE TO ANOTHER BOX. EX. JILL & JOHN ARE TALKING- IF JILL & JOHN DON'T WANT BILLY TO TALK TO THEM, THEY NEED TO MOVE IT. BILLY JUST WANTS SOME ATTENTION TOO. HE WANTS TO CREATE A STORY OF HIS OWN, MAKING FRIENDS AND ALL THAT.)


-I HAVE NEVER SAID THAT ONE X ONE WAS NOT ALLOWED OR NOT EMBRACED BY THIS RP. I'VE ONLY SAID THAT I WANT PEOPLE TO BE MORE SENSITIVE TO THE AVAILABILITY OF GROUP RP.


-I DO NOT LIKE HEARING THAT PEOPLE "WOULD HAVE" JOINED IF THEY DIDN'T FEEL SO CLOSED OUT BY ALL THE 1X1 PLAY.

- I've revised the "rule" on the Inn RP page, in hopes that people will not be so confused. If anyone has any further questions, or you feel I have not given enough detail (or just want me to elaborate on something else ), please pm me.



thank you,

Hello! I'm sorry, I'm brand spanking new but looking for chat rps... So I apologize if I'm rehashing questions already asked here. I'm trying to read through all the posts ha ha.

But, are you accepting new players? If so, do I have to produce a character profile/biography? (I found Inn Regulars in character group?) The intro states that you can bring in characters from all sorts of dimensions...Does that mean you can literally bring in any sort from any type of background/setting? (Just making sure, I already see animals aren't allowed unless they are anthros?)

This is kind of like a Multi-Realm sort of inn, right?

I apologize again, just hoping to jump in somewhere!

Hi lady! And welcome :) Imma take a place in the spotlight of answering but I am sure others will probably fill in as well if I've forgotten something.

So the Inn is accepting all the time. It is a setting where you can come and interact with literally any character (there are futuristic, modern, fantasy and other characters, anthros included). You don't need a profile or biography and the inn regulars group is just a collection of the most recurring characters in the inn.

The setting of the inn allows any player to drop in at any time they want as it focuses on group games as well as inclusive one on one (as in those involved in one on one react to characters that come along and want to play). In case you pop in and no one seems to be talking to you don't get discouraged! It can just be that they are trying to finish a plot arch they had running and they will definitely come and talk with your character eventually. Also, just to make sure there would be someone for you to play with, you can always pop into the ooc chat right below the inn chat.

And beware, I feel like I need to mention it, the inn is also meant as a place for smut. It is not its sole focus though! A lot of players are running stories that do not include intimacy every single time they log in and you can explicitly state you don't want to participate in it and it will be respected and you'll still be welcome :)

All in all it is a friendly 24/7 open, fixed setting charp with that you can take absolute advantage off.

Hope this helps ^^ if you have any more questions, then fire away <3
