Out of Character Discussion

Is there a way to download stuff from the forum? I think what we can do is back up a majority of it, and collapse the OOC threads into one thread, and the IC into one thread.

There is a way to download a copy-pasteable Text Only version!

@Diana I will organize my plan and get back to you :)

Since Ilium is a sub-forum, it's immune to pruning. How would that work with a regular thread?

Well things never get deleted, so you don't have to worry about that! If it goes inactive it would just be moved to the graveyard like any other roleplay. And you (or any player) can just send in a Thread Moderation request at any time to retrieve it!
 
By the way, how do we feel about a single thread? Kaustir is where most of the active players remain.

i'd say yes, but we all need to type up in every post where we are from :3
 
That can be arranged :)
 
FIGHT THE SYSTEM!

I say keep Ilium a mass RP. My time is freeing up again (albeit gradually), and I should have enough time sporadically throughout the day to make posts and to help manage the RP.
 
With fatal back, this place could be resurrected!

Update on my end: for about a month I have been fighting a persistent sinus infection that oscillates to around the various infectable cavities in my head. It's shitty. Wedding planning is heating up, and so is work.

I currently I have a post planned for Kaustir. Given member activity, I was thinking of consolidating all action into one IC thread. It would help the remaining people feel closer to each other, and make us all feel that our stories are more in sync.
 
That'd make it a lil bit harder on the mind to read.

That being said tbh I haven't read anything from the other nations, but now I feel I should.
 
I think, with the smaller amount of players, one thread would make it feel as if we are all writing towards some sort of convergence (which this story ultimately ends up in). I'm open to keeping threads separate, but I think it limits exposure to the fantastic writing everyone has to offer, and orphans players.
 
I may (and often do) have overly lofty ambitions here, but let's not sell the RP short.

It's a big world, and with the right guidance and direction we could really bring life back into it.

My primary issue with shrinking down into a smaller-scale RP is that I feel like it's so far contrary to the original vision that Asmodeus and Tegan had for Ilium and that unanun, Peregrine and I have worked so hard to maintain.

Yeah, we're clearly way off schedule. By this time we were thinking to be well into Book 2, but I don't think that means we should condense. Now that the ad banners are back and I'm gradually getting back into the swing of things, let's try to figure something out.

With that being said.

Who is currently in Dorgrad and wants to collab with me. WE NEED TO PUT SOME INVIGORATION UP IN HERE.
 
If you guys have the energy, I will reciprocate! I'm currently working on a Zirako post P:

@Mglo could use your help, possibly, @Spoopy
 
I'm nearly done with a Dograd post. I can lead into a collab with @Spoopy

I'm also considering doing a Zirako post with my other one. If you need help with a specific situation lemme know!
 
Ilium, the lumbering juggernaut.

I'm always so happy to see it's still alive as pathetic as my activity has been.

Hopefully it can thrive again. A story, lore and community this good deserves it.

I have no strong opinion on the singular thread/current threads matter. However, I think the substantive lore and history could intimidate and act as a barrier to new players. It took me a long time to wrap my head around Viridos alone despite the excellent synopsis and introduction in the archive. I would suggest more pages need to be added to the archive to flesh out the lore introduced over the course of the roleplay, such as an introduction for Book 2, a current/pertinent characters outline and info for moirgut, Kindly Ones etc. I'd be happy to help out.

Otherwise, I'll do what I can for Viridos!

I do have an Intro for Book 2! It has taken the place of the introduction. Check it out!

Love the hint at Amaltas (shit, did I spell his name properly??) @Spire I . Any plans for him? Come join us in Discord!
 
I just noticed that a really, REALLY, old post of mine was just loved by someone...

I never have felt so noticed <3 ;-;


Thank you so much @Spire
 
@Nue Haha, you're welcome. I'm currently compiling an encyclopaedia for Viridos & The Aviary so I'm reviewing all past posts, which has been really enjoyable. Some fantastic posts which should be read by all :)

Hey would anyone be willing to help me with Takeda? I just need someone to find him and help with adapting to Pegulis.
