Akito Immelman I haven't been on in a while, but I agree with moon as well. This guild has a massive amount of people in it and new people keep coming. I ended up leaving for a while because it is so dysfunctional and unstructured. Having original factions is always a must to make something our own, but if you lose your direction with all the sub plots every character brings in, the main story gets dragged down. We would need to look at a way of keeping the train on track with the main story, then have sub forums for characters to develop their characters when there might be a lag. Thats what the big problem is in this guild that I saw. There is a general idea on the plot, but everyone just kinda does whatever. Welcome back Akito. yes I also agree on your point. Like you said things are all over the place. It hard to keep track of to where to post for the main parts and sub parts are mixed in together. when there are multiple things going on during the same time as the Main story it gets confusing from time to time. also on the note of character development. not all of it is mixed in with the main story line. I have seen some topics in certain factions which they do it there. they did this so it wouldn't interfere with the main storyline but stay as a separate story or sub plot.

Thanks, hopefully we can get going smoothly. But I do understand that what I said would be one of the reasons why its getting renovated, and i want to be here to help.I just wanted to stress what I saw as a main problem, and how to fix it. Since I've been gone, I dont really know where the story has gone or anything, so I can only say that is the problem I see at the moment. So if i can be of some help in maybe structuring a subforum for side stories, that would be fine.

well on the regards of storyline. it kinda all over the place and in limbo right now. there was an alien invasion but it failed badly so they had to dismiss it and go on with the storyline. Some individuals are stressing not to have another alien attack/invasion or aliens in general. Back to storyline wise there was supposed to be a big battle in the pacific between the NR and the NZE. But due to Tama being gone for a little while. it is stuck on limbo. also the battle hasn't commenced due to the current unknown status of guild members in the NR and NZE. After that battle there were other things including a super weapon mission. and a space battle between NZE and Razgriz. but these two are in limbo. Well this is just the jist of things that was currently going on and what will happen next to help you understand a little.

Only reason I stopped coming in was because of all the damn time-skips. I'd just finish planning for one and another one would pop up. Too many time-skips zokano. WAY too many.

there was only one thank you very much and mabye a deletion of a faction (The battlemechas deal) even though that laid a gaint gap within the story line. Sooooo there tis be only one time jump. -.- and the major population clames to only want at the 3 year mark... i think i updated the history. So cleaning out post and starting all over shouldnt be a major problem. As long as the history is updated, then new comers wouldnt be so confused... Another reason why i created one.

It's true there were alot that wanted 3 year mark instead of 5 years which would of most likely confuse some people. so like you said Tama a mutual agreement starting at the 3 year mark made sense. It seems the history must defiantly be updated.

quick subforum report
Faction HQ's need a clean up ( sans razgriz.... since.. its empty.... mostly....)
A lot of the space subforums canbe merged into one subforum, most notably;
EARTH'S ORBIT, MACHINE GRAVEYARD, SPACE SPACE COLONY,
Orbital elevator could very well be merged with subforums ( for discussion
CB command ship subforum is not very needed, could be merged
atlantic/pacific ocean subforums can be merged

-Moon Fire Liako- Herp-to-Derp I Believe that a Re-start of the Guild and Story would be a Nice thing to do. A Sub-Fourm to save important events is a Good Idea yes to keep our History. But If the Guild is Re-Born with a Brand new Original Story line and completely clean out and organized to be user-Friendly. It would leave us with fresh minds and ideas to put to Action. Some of the stuff here did work, But some of it is junk and Uselsss. A Three Year time Skip would not work, I say we put our minds together and imagine a world that would be completely ours in Originality. The Mobile Suits and techonology would be there. But the Factions we know and Love from Canon, like CB and others would take completely new Identities. Lets Pitch some ideals, Come On~ If you all love this guild just as I do. Then think for its Future. I 100% agree with you! A fresh story line would SO help this guild out! I mean I've been a member for a week but it's so chaotic that I can't even figure out where to make my first post. gonk I mean the whole guild seems dead.I'm more than willing to help brainstorm some fresh ideas for the story line! I know I'm new but I'm a HUGE Gundam fan! blaugh

I think that cleaning the guild up and starting from the 3 year mark is a great idea. It would free up a lot of room and make way for new ideas. The only reason I stopped showing up is because there was nothing going on. If we could get a whole new and fresh batch of players all at once then that could kick-start the roleplaying again, and I would definitely start back up.
Also maybe we could have a thread up that has a clear cut timeline and intended story progression? Like a line chart denoting important things and when they're projected to happen? That would give the factions an idea of how much time they have to make whatever preparations they want and would also leave room for the individual characters to do some things that they want as well.
Also possibly have the faction leaders put up threads in their sub-forums that they put in a regular progress report. Like a synopsis of what their faction has done and how they're handling things. To make it easier on you, Tama, to see where all the sides stand. It wouldn't have to be that often. Maybe every week or every other.

Zeke Gene
 Just looking at this dysfunctional non cannon mess actually makes my stomach turn a little bit. That is why I haven't even started to RP. In my opinion this needs to be reset with massive amounts of restrictions and limits put on it from the beginning. Personally there are way too many loopholes to be utilized in the Gundam universe alone that could make "God-like" weapons. On top of that each faction needs to have there own infrastructure (Bases, weapons, and uniforms) and chain of command hopefully based as much on cannon ideals as possible. Reason behind this is so that new people joining in won't be utterly confused. just an idea but there should be a short summary log for new members. I honestly got told like 500 different times about things I had no idea happened and I believe got snapped at a few times as well because I did not know some of these things. Mixing technology= Horribad ideas. Gundams should stay on gundam ships with gundam tech, with macross and other series technology being the same. Reason behind it is so that the structure of the RP can remain stable and organized. Also this may help those who are new or old who are only familiar with a certain series to RP easier. The Downfall of every Gundam RP I have ever been in has been because way too much god like creativity. For every extremely custom unit there should be an equal amount of advantages to disadvantages, that way the two can off balance each other. Zil and his stupid RSX machines are living proof of broken stupidness that can be birthed from such unchecked creativity....... And then there is H.A.M. which was rejected rightfully because it was loaded with almost every single broken piece of A.D. and U.C. tech known to man. That being said Non of these can be fixed or even maintained with out completely restarting this guild I would like to suggest that for custom units that are submitted that a council of people be formed to contemplate the usefulness and regulation worth of such a unit before it can be even considered to be approved. Said council will give a full report of whether to accept it or not , if not and if needed only minor changes said suggestions will also be given in said report. Current methods are unbalanced and unchecked. I recommend that one or two people from each faction with enough knowledge to judge said things should be on the council. The passing / rejection would need 2/3 vote to pass. Thats my short rant on the matter! I hope you take my ideas and hard worked on thoughts into consideration!

Um... Yeah... ninja
I agree with many of Zeke's points.
I am for a complete restart of the guild but it looks like cleaning it up has the most votes.
