Hey folks, Yoshi here:
This is going to be the place you go to when you have a question about something in the guild. If it's not listed in the Frequently Asked Questions, please don't hesitate to ask it. I or another crew member will be more than happy to answer the question to the best of our ability. That being said, feel free to quote me to get my attention. I try to poke around everywhere on a decent basis, but I do tend to forget about things sometimes. x-x
Also, credit on this whole idea and a bunch of the questions goes to none other than RobinStuff: He's the mastermind behind a lot of helpful ideas for the guild, although he doesn't get the attention he deserves for it. ;D Also, we couldn't have done this without the help of Wyrda Stenr, the ever-dedicated Captain. Enough credit, now comes what you're here for:
Q: Where do I find Roleplays?
A: There's a page for that in the main forum called Roleplays in the Guild. Just click the link to have a look around. Just so you know, 1x1 Roleplays are not listed there, but can be found in the 1x1 Forum. Also, If you don't find a Roleplay you like, you can make your own!
Q: Why doesn't anyone join my Roleplays?
A: Many times people are unable to see new Roleplays because the top 5 active topics are the only ones listed in the quick find list. You can either bump your thread to try and keep it up in the top feed or let a Crew Member know about your new Roleplay to the list of Roleplays in the Guild so that others know about it. Also, you can post a Recruiting Thread for it and bump that in the Recruiting sub-forum.
Q: Why are there so many sub-forums?
A: Well, we are unable to delete sub-forums, so there will be that many for all eternity. Sorry about that. On the bright side, it means that you can find something you want by searching specific sub-forums of the topic of your interests.
Q: I want to help out, how do I become a Crew Member?
A: We appreciate all the help we can get for the Guild, and the thread that covers all of this information can be found here: Crew Signup:: Become a Crew Member
Q: Where is the main Recruitment page for the Guild?
A: Our main Recruitment page for the Guild is in the Gaia Guild Network section of the main Gaia Forums. Here's a link to the Recruitment Page: Welcome to the Land of Imagination Roleplaying Guild!
Q: I'm waiting on a person's character in a Roleplay but they haven't responded in a while; what do I do?
A: If there's an OOC section / forum for the Roleplay, I would advise quoting them in it. Also, you can use this thread designed specifically for that purpose: Are You Waiting on Someone? An alternate way of letting them know is through sending them a PM about the Roleplay.
Q: I have to put down my Roleplays for a while to study / travel / deal with a life issue/event; what do I do?
A: It would be wonderful to let everyone know that you have to leave for a bit and let them know when you will be back. If it is necessary to temporarily withdraw your character or put them into someone else's care for the time being, just make sure that the other roleplayers are fine with it. Anyhow, we want you to be able to roleplay, but if something comes up, we want you to take care of it. Life always comes first. You can also post up your absence in the thread built for that: Are you going to be abset for a few days?
Q: I want to make a Roleplay, but I'm not sure if anyone will join. Where can I put it so that I can see if others are interested in it?
A: You can make a recruitment thread in the Recruiting Forum to advertise your Roleplay, and bump it so that people can see it on the main feed. Also, you can make a subject in the Brainstorming or Searching forums as well!
Q: I have a lot to talk about, but it has nothing to do with Roleplays. Where can I go to talk?
A: You can go straight to the Chatterbox Forum and tlak your little heart out about whatever you would like!
Q: I have an idea for a contest; where can I put it?
A: You can put the idea up in the Events / Contests Forum, or PM a crew member with the idea.
Q: Where can I submit ideas for the Guild and/or forums?
A: You can either PM these to the Crew Members or post them up in the Brainstorming Section.
Q: There was a really cool Roleplay that I created / participated in that died and I would like to bring back; is it possible to do?
A: Yes, there is a thread in the main forum called Bring Back A Roleplay Thread. Just give it a look-over or suggest an old Roleplay to bring back.
