Maybe we can have a monthly guild member spotlight and we all ask them questions in the guild?

Maybe have a thread for art? Or we can all pitch in and make a comic/manga/something. Yay or nay?

How about a Guild playlist, sort of?
People could share songs and lyrics that inspire them or remind them of the process or somehow speak to their identity.

I have an idea. Maybe we could have a convention zone, where we could discuss different cons and meet-ups we're going to, costuming ideas and advice, swap convention horror stories and maybe even arrange in-person meet-ups so we could all get closer as friends, a support group and as guild members.
I wouldn't ordinarily suggest this on the internet, but seeing how there's already a picture thread in which several members have posted easy-to-track pictures of themselves *and* this is a private-set guild, in-person meetups are not a far stretch and would be a lot of fun and perhaps even help some members become more confident with their identity.

I really like this idea. If you have any idea's about how to set up the thread let me know.

Maybe have a listing of where we are in terms of a map? So we can see where we are and maybe it'll help us see that we're not alone.

I really like this idea. If you have any idea's about how to set up the thread let me know. I was thinking that a subcategory (like the Dormitory, Psychiatrist's Office, etc.) could be made and labeled something like RealVerse Central Station or something like that -- the name doesn't really matter -- and in that would be where members could post different cons they're planning to be at, ask questions about the transgender con community, various suggestions for panels/events to host or attend at cons, swap tips and horror stories on crossplay/cosplay, etc. One of the sticky notes at the top would be a listing of cons at which one or more members will be rendezvousing, to be followed by pictures of the meet-ups, perhaps. This would make it so that those unable to make most or any of the meetups could still participate in the discussion and share in the fun. Giveaways of old props and cosplay pieces could follow, depending on how active the subcategory becomes.

Would you be willing to help moderate it?

I may be overlooking it or overlooking the reason why we do not have it, but a thread just for random thoughts and casual non-topic discussion would be nice.

Giveaways of old props and cosplay pieces could follow, depending on how active the subcategory becomes. Has there been any further discussion of this idea among the moderators/crew? I'd really love for this to be a thing, particularly because (in my personal experience) cons are among the best places to explore one's identity without being judged while still interacting with the general public. If it weren't for a friend of mine dragging me to my first con when I was eighteen, it would have taken a lot longer for me to understand and accept other states of being, much less to work up the courage to admit to my own questions about myself. Even today, I am happier and more comfortable at cons than nearly anywhere else because of the freedom and colorful, tight-knit, and supportive community that conventions offer to people of any background, fandom or art form. I suppose that explains why I feel that adding a con-hopper hub to this guild would be magnificently awesome and possibly even help some of us become more comfortable with expressing our identities offline. (Not to mention the FUNSIES~)

Valenas I may be overlooking it or overlooking the reason why we do not have it, but a thread just for random thoughts and casual non-topic discussion would be nice. Kudos. I was beginning to wonder about that as well, although I think a category would be more in order than a single thread.
