To keep the everyday OOC chatter out of the Great Hall and thus the role play we have decided to create this thread here for you to do so.

So if you wish to inform your fellow guild mates about anything, such as asking people to vote for them, to inform us that your going to be gone for an extended period of time, etc.

To keep the OOC chatter form making it seem like the DADA class is going on I've moved our little chat here.

Meiko and Eclipse: There is an event going on right now. Sing's OC had a rival that somehow got inside the castle and has taken control of Sing's OC via the Imperious Curse. {Desdemona Eleanore} is that rival she is very into the Dark Arts. It seems they wanted some action to go down and thus choice my classroom to do so. However instead of waiting for me to get back on and contiue the conversation that I was having with Des, she went on and attack Sparrow's OC, something Kenneth would not have allowed to happen. B/c of the lack of forsight, I came up with an easy solution to just remove my own post and act as if Kenneth hasn't arrived to the classroom from breakfast yet. I hope that clears up things for you.

Ash: Don't worry about it, I was mainly concerned with those who had actually been taking part in the "action" to go back and just edit out the mention of Kenneth from their posts. Namely Sparrow, Liv, Al, and Des.

[[ Give it a little more time. And its okay, I'm usually chalked full of good ideas and I found a way around that misunderstanding last night so we all good now. Please this way Kenneth will be very upset with Des and Des will have no idea whats coming for her next. "MUU HA HA HA!" ]]


((Haha Evil Kenneth... Aww I wanna wake up *pouts in her sleep* I guess I will wait haha ))




[[ Yes Kenneth has a deep dark side that comes out from time to time, takes to that torture he endured when he was a kid. Um im going to get some dinner, but when I get back I'll reply to Liv and Al, you then can have Sparrow wake up after Kenneth finish's questioning the girls or something like that. ]]

LOL sorry about that. Yeap we thought it a good idea to create this thread so we don't get too much OOC chatter in the actual RP threads. I've been quoting people here so they just used to the idea. Maybe I should ask Sing to send out an announcement as well.

I'm going to go start my post in the HW. Don't worry about being busy I think Sing plans to have this go on for a while longer.

ALOT. Ive been rolling this idea over for a good while. Every event we have is some forum based dance or roleplay related with no real hype to it. Like the event thats going on right now, it's a fun twist to the roleplay but it seems to revolve around Sing and not really including the guild members as a whole. And in my opinion the guild should host events that welcome everyone so that we may promote the Hogwarts Guild and draw in more roleplayers. I know that I would love to see this guild a bit more active, which gradually it is. But I think that an event planning group will be a fun thing for everyone. It would unite us as a group and build strong bonds.


I thought that we could have a group of 5 people, more or less depending on what you would think is best, to be the planners for the events. These events can be based partly on the roleplay but they don’t have to be. For example, the spirit week idea where we tekteked our avi’s didn’t have anything to do with the roleplay, but the Triwizard did. In order to keep the guild on a schedule basis I figured we could have one event per month, that way people will always be anticipating the next one and will keep coming back for more. As for the planning of the events I already have the system of how it will be done down. As a rough example I’ll use my guild and set up how I want it to be done. Just click the link to check it out. Also in the link I have created an actual mock event in the Planning sub-forum and the Events sub-forum. Please check them both out.

The team will be lead by a Team Leader. This person will be in charge of making sure everything in that thread runs smoothly and that the events get planned on time and so on.

As for the process of picking an event to do, its rather simple. Say someone posts an idea for a prom in the Event Suggestions sticky topic in the link above. A large majority of the planners would have to like the idea in order for it to become a possibility. Once we have majority approval, we will gather a rough sketch of the event we hope to plan and the Team Leader will proceed to message either you or Sing with the details. Once one of you read it over and consult with each other, you message us back with you approval or denial of the said event. If it is approved a normal topic will be created with the event name as a title and that is where all the planning will begin. You and sing will be notified and be kept up to date on the event at all times by the leader. You two can monitor the planning as you see fit. Once the event is all planned with the details and etc, we will notify you on the finished result and once again ask for your approval.

Advertising the event is very important to ensure its success. Once we have gotten the final approval from you and/or Sing, we as a group will proceed to make a post in which advertises the event. It will have all of the information about the event including when and what the event is. We will send you or Sing the post in a private message so that one of you may post it in an announcement for the guild to see maybe one week-two weeks ahead of time. You can make other little reminder announcements so that the members wont forget about the event. As for external advertisement, I’ll take care of that.

Some events will be held in the towns of Gaia. Now I know not everyone had access to the towns, like you, and for those circumstances There will still be a topic discussion thread and/or a forum based event for those unable to get into towns. Also as an extra measure I or another member of the planning team will take pictures and/or video clips of the event to share with the guild and preserve our times together as a guild. Its also fun to look back on a few months down the road.

So as you can see Kev, I’ve put so much thought into this its almost scaring me. If you have any questions, comments, or concerns please ask. :3




Edit: Also everyone else, what do you think?

Don't forget about Blac Magik she is also a VC as well. I'm sure you didn't mean to leave her out.

Well the idea does sound solid, but it would be up to Sing to give the final okay to it all. Until then you have my support in this.

Question though who would make up this team? Would they need to be on the actual crew? Do we vote? Or just ask people who wish to join to volunteer themselves?

I do agree that this event isn't really known by the entire guild, just the ones who log in and hang around the guild a lot.

Edit: Also everyone else, what do you think?


Only got 4 comments,
1) I'd love to help think of the ideas, I know they tend to revolve around the high-posters a lot, because it is tricky thinking of ideas and I could efinitly use all the help I could get.
2) I love the whole working it out thing, being sure we know what's happening. If I don't like something about it, I can just message you guys and sort it out.
3) I nominate you as leader since you thought of all this. It doesn't have to be just one person though, I feel like every high-poster should get a say. Just kinda everyone working together. Some people think of the ideas a bit more of course, as long as no one goes power-hungry, cuz kaydot- did go a bit power-hungry near teh end, I want people not god-modding or thinking themselves perfect. As long as no leader does that, i think it'll go smoothly.
4) I won't be around as much come 2013. that's when the real work for me starts. I'll still be on of course, assuming the guild gets that far, but as we know these decrees are fake, and i just don't want to have someone who completely disregards what I say and goes along with their own plan. we need to be sure most of the guild agrees. We want it a group effort, and i just really want that to stay because i know the events we have kinda revolve around the people that do post most, it's kinda like...they're the only ones who really participate though XD i just wanna please as many people in the guild as possible without working to death.

Yes her too of course. I was just typing in a rush I is sorry hehe. But I thinks its pretty solid, there may be some holes in it but I'm sure we can fix them as we go on. I appreciate the support.

The team would be made of 6 active members, the leader and 5 others, that are interested in planning events for the guild. They must be dedicated and have a decent amount of time available to be put into planning because trust me, it takes alot of work to pull this stuff off. Since the planning thread would be crew only the people on the team, if they werent crew already, would need to be bumped up to crew if that was alright. So they would need to be trustworthy as well. As for picking who, I suggest we just make a general announcement on who would be interested in joining the event planning committee and pick the best 5 there is.

And as a little unprofessional not I would REALLY love to be the team leader D: But since I dont want to be a communist I'll leave that in the true powers' hands. *coughpleasemakemeheadoftheteamcough* Its going to take a little bit to actually set up the team but once they're all set up it will be a piece of cake to get active and started.

Well even if I say no to an idea, i'm not gonna just be someone to be all, NOPE. and be final. I'm open to new ideas and if I don't like something, we can just change it around, tweak it, kinda. I do think you should be the captain of the second guild, since you thought of the idea. just check out the other stuff i have that i posted on my mule

I'll definitly be open to ideas and probably approve most of them XD even if i don't, i can say what i don't like about it and maybe we can tweak it. all the same, i don't think it'd be fair for everyone to approve an idea, not get my approval, and then start posting it in the guild i captain. even though i'm not the majority, it's kinda like, i still want to be notified before something starts, and then i can just say okay this sounds cool, let's do it, i'll join in we can all have fun with it, and start the event.
