Anyone have any idea why exactly the site is dying?
Perhaps, I need to advertise, because we haven't had any members in a long while.

Well, if you have any ideas!

don't make it so hard! Make it easier to type instead of long stories. Besides, the game is to set up. It is hard to get in the game if you're just starting(like me)

Raro, sometimes it might not seem hard for you, but for other people who haven't done rp before it might be the most confusing thing in the world... You try to hard to make your site really fancy or something, but all your doing is making it harder..

Well does anyone have any ideas on how to make it easier. But keep it still as an RP? Because, I've tried, and I've brainstormed, but this is really the simplest I can get.

I mean, take Darkforest for example, PI is like 1/10 the complicativeness of it.

Okay. Do you all even know what an RP is? It's a roleplay, not a MMORPG. okay? They're not usually supposed to have visuals. But If it helps, you can make the visuals, and I will put them to use. But what kind of visuals were you thinking?

That's what I said before Raro. You never listened. If you want you do the outline and I can color it. Whatever you would like. ^_^

The thing is... there already is a map. Not colored, but the outline is there with the key and everything. I think it's in the library under seamap.

I know I double posted.. >.< Sorry... but raro I think the Grocery Store will help out. what you should do is since you can put stuff in the newspaper at school what you should do is say that you have like a new addition to the site or something.

I figured out why. It's tough to figure out what to do when you're first starting right? So people will want to RP with mods and administrators. But those people have already gone really far. So the new players must learn on their own. I suggest having a person act like a continuous character guideline or something. Also, keep creating the same topic, just move the first topic and make the same one with a 2 or something. If you keep the same topic, nobody can post in it because it's dead. Also, new users must go in groups because you can't join a group at some random point, this makes it hard. X(

(Im not in school right now, but Ido. And at camp)

What do you mean by the same topic thing?
Hmm... Good idea for the continuous character.
I'll keep that in mind.
More for trilladn than PI though, because you cant really have one on a deseerted island.

yes, you can join a group, meet up with them or soemthing. Like botdude joine dour group.

If the topic is dead, characters can no longer RP in that place( the topic) So you have to reset it or something.
