make a list of characters you want to know things about and I'll either tell you what's going on, or if it's on a need to know basis (and for the sake of keeping the story mysterious... you don't need to know)

Archive I think, not many think they're important but I do. Shows that the guild has lived a year, a long time if you think about it. ninja

I'm raising a concern about certain threads. I have a bit of a problem with certain people entering certain threads that are labeled "____ only". In my understanding, if a thread that Dante started has "Kida Only" on the title, shouldn't it be that no one else is allowed to post other than Kida? Kai and Cole were in a thread and the title had "Cole Only" on it, and yet Nano showed up. Don't get me wrong, I don't have a problem with the people themselves, but when you asked us not to post in certain threads YOU created, we don't.
Also, the fact that we have to make alterations to the plot and the course of the story when our threads are "crashed". Even when we do, a lot of these threads that were created by Kai and Dante are to accomodate those who regularly post in this guild. Therefore, when our threads are crashed and the plots are altered to accomodate the crashers, we go back to square one when the said crashers FLAKE and don't show up for days and weeks, leaving the rest of us who are waiting for a response to scramble the plot again. It turns into a cycle, a paradox in which none of the stories can finish because pieces that were accomodated go missing again, thus defeating the purpose of starting that side thread altogether.
I don't know if I'm the only one who has this concern but I just wanted the same respect we give you.

I agree, although the plot that was titled "Kida Only" has not been crashed Star was kind enough to PM me and ask, and seeing as I havent got a previous plot line for it I didnt have any objections.

Dante is right... I am kind enough to ask before I enter a thread. And I do believe that Nano asked kai before she entered as well. And lookle was allowed into the other thread... I think Yoda talked to Dante though I could be wrong. sweatdrop All I really care about is covering my own butt!! mrgreen

Fair enough. If Nano WAS kind enough to let Kai know she was comming in, hopefully she was also kind enough to let Kai know that she was going to disappear. And I understand that things come up IRL, I respect that. But that doesn't change the fact that people disappear and plots get hung up, leaving the rest of us to twidle our thumbs. Not like I don't do enough of that at work... sweatdrop ... but at least if I was typing up a response I can always tell my boss that I'm finishing up "paperwork". I was just hoping that the communication lines were kept open, that's all. Common courtesy and all that jazz. I've had a chance to RP with most, if not all, of you in here and obviously, I do enjoy RPing with you. But when people disappear and stories are stalled, I feel like a pirate with a steering wheel attached to his crotch: "AAARRRRGGG, it drives me nuts!"
Oh and Dante.... "Boing"?

Um...considering he's doing NJT SW comics and not just regular SW comics uh....
*ahem*
Right, well, I must admit it's annoying as well. Mostly because we created the Activities for Active (ok, Kai and Dante did) for those of us who were bored waiting for others to get on to continue our original plots from the beginning. Not that I'm one to talk about disappearing for a while, but it does kinda put everyone into a jam. And not the kind that goes with peanut butter. Oh no, now I'm just making myself hungry... I should just shut up and go back to bed...

Perhaps it's time to get this thing going again. Dante and Star have been nice enough to start discussion threads regarding specific events but I'm hoping this bad boy will consolidate all that. Also, I haven't heard from EVERYONE when it comes to thoughts about how things are going and I'd like to encourage folks to express themselves (exPRESS, not exPOSE). As a mod team, we strive to facilitate an engaging RP experience but a lot of the discussions happen behind closed doors. Well, I'm sworn to secrecy on certain things but as Triskal would attest, I also encourage folks to speak their thoughts. This is a good time since the guild celebrated it's birthday a month ago. It's a good time to reflect, specially since we're also into our next chapter. What do you think about everything? This is your guild too, folks, so let's hear it.
Just to get things rolling, here are a couple of items to discuss:
- What are your thoughts on the guild? People, structure... I know I might be opening a can of worms here but I still encourage folks to speak up. Just, you know, be respectful of others. Mod or not. We may be sexy beasts but we have feelings too.
- Folks have worked really hard in crafting our ever-evolving storyline. What works? What doesn't? Any tweaks you would suggest?
- Is it just me or do we need to get more females active in here? I know I'm grasping at straws because it IS a Star Wars guild afterall, and based on my experience, most things Star Wars related tend to be sausagefests. You would think the slogan "Use the Force" will be a chick magnet (I guess only if they're into THAT sort of thing).
- As a means for another filler, I might start a "Hutt's Arena" thread where people can assume other characters and duke it out not unlike a Fight Club. I'm still working out the kinks (how will the combatants register, should we put a battle system in place, etc), but what do you think of the concept? Any suggestions? Stay tuned.
Ok folks, just something to get y'all started. Don't hate, participate. That's what they say in San Francisco. In Castro. At the Tender Loin. Gross.

Let me just add that as a mod I fully agree with Cole. We want your opinions because it lets us know that our work has affected no matter what way it is. Good or bad we want to know that way we can work and make it better. It also lets us know that our work isn't going to waste because you care enough at least to let us know how you feel. So... that said, I'll start this show.
-What are your thoughts on the guild? I love the people. They are so much fun to talk to, work with, and perform the RP. If this was a television show (which it should be) this would be the perfect cast! We'd have so much fun on set... might not get any work done but it would be completely enjoyable. This is perhaps the best environment on gaia and I'm glad to say that we've invested so much time in creating it. I'm just a little sad that we share it with so few people. Wish there were more, but not too many more.
- Folks have worked really hard in crafting our ever-evolving storyline. What works? What doesn't? Any tweaks you would suggest? Yes... someone needs to have sex... now. I don't care who but we need a love story. That's the only thing lacking and every star wars story has had love and romance of some kind. When the Nova Guild was here we had love triangle abound... but now that's somewhere else. Time for people to get cracking!!! Other than that, I've helped craft this storyline and I love it!!
- Is it just me or do we need to get more females active in here? I know I'm grasping at straws because it IS a Star Wars guild afterall, and based on my experience, most things Star Wars related tend to be sausagefests. You would think the slogan "Use the Force" will be a chick magnet (I guess only if they're into THAT sort of thing). Let's see... if we count them up: there's me (sexy queen domanatrix twisted ), Nano, Triskal, Illyria, and Star... so that's five of us. Wait... Lenaya so that's six. Do you really want to get out numbered that badly?
- As a means for another filler, I might start a "Hutt's Arena" thread where people can assume other characters and duke it out not unlike a Fight Club. I'm still working out the kinks (how will the combatants register, should we put a battle system in place, etc), but what do you think of the concept? Any suggestions? Stay tuned.
Um... I'd need more to make an opinion about Hutt's Arena, but I'd love to randomly fight and kick people's butts...

Okay, I'm gonna chime in here...first off, I haven't been here long, and I haven't been as active as I'd like...that said, it's time for it to change. Secondly, I do wish things moved a lil faster, and I'll do whatever I can to facilitate that, though, admittedly, I'm a noob around these parts.... I think that's all I've got for the moment, so....yeah smile
