AnonBrony 1,467 January 2, 2013 Share January 2, 2013 The thread situation may be difficult, but we'll (hopefully) manage. Hey, can you have one thread with different sections all next to each other? If that is possible, then nobody would have to wait to post, and everyone could see what's happening. There could be a section or two at the bottom for House overlaps. People with no faction could post anywhere as long as it fit, seeing as they could go anywhere. Is that an option? That's great! Well, at least I believe it is. I can't really think of anything to add. Thats actually a good plan but i ahve no idea if thats even possible. I never made a thread. And just using common sense i don't think thats even an option. But what do i know? If that is possible i say lets go with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nightfall 3,950 January 4, 2013 Share January 4, 2013 Tell me, what would a thread with different sections in it look like? I might have an idea that can make it possible... I would like to know. Personally, I like the separate topics idea. It makes more sense, and we could have a main, seventh topic for interactions between the factions and the cult.

If my idea and/or your idea doesn't work, then separate threads may work best, but it would be nice if people could look and post in any one - that way, travelers could go from one House to another.

I'd like to suggest your idea and post it in the feedback and suggestions section of the forums. If I do that, I'll give you full credit. But I can't do it without offering details. If I can't do it, I'll go with the 6 threads. Edited January 4, 2013 by MagicalStarRain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seperate Threads seems the best route but... i just think several threads just seems like too much ya know? Even the advanced role plays don't need more than 1. I don't think any RP has used more than one at the same time. There has to be some other way right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, it wouldn't be too chaotic, although it might be a bit bothersome if anyone (probably me) wants to keep track of everything that's going on in each House - having to look at each individual thread seems like a pain. Wait, a thread is a thing just like this one, right? This is a thread, am I correct? I'm actually not entirely sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreyScholar 1,574 January 4, 2013 Author Share January 4, 2013 (edited) I need to know if all my Moderators have Skype, if not I will probably have us meet in a group chat I will create on chatango.com. I feel life chat would be better in discussing things then PMs, that way we can all talk with each other and not all of you with me. On whether or not we should have 6-7 thread remember that the goal is to have at least 3 OCs per faction which is 21 OCs. This is a large roleplay, large enough to need at least 4 thread and we could possible be getting more roleplayers as time goes on. I can assure all of you that I have worked with multiple threads for one roleplay before... admittingly they were on sites make for just one to three roleplays and each had their own section. If such wouldn't be allowed on MLP Forums... well we might have to find another place to do this as I can see no way of doing this giant of a roleplay without more then one thread.

I have Skype on my Kindle Fire, but I have no idea how to use it. In fact, what's my user name? I'll give you my username once I find it and when I figure out how to use Skype. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skype is easy enough to get and you don't need a mike. The chat option is more that satisfactory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have Skype on my personal laptop but any time I try to get it on other computers I seem to have trouble downloading it right and logging in. If AnonBrony wants to get Skype he can but for those that don't have Skype, Chatango.com is actually the easist to get an account with as you don't have to download anything. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Descant 1,897 January 5, 2013 Share January 5, 2013 I have a Skype, but opportunities to use it anytime soon are going to be rather scarce.

MagicalStarRain 599 January 5, 2013 Share January 5, 2013 With all of this work and effort and planning that's being put into this roleplay, it'd better be worth it. In the roleplay, when we're replying to one another, we will have to quote each other to keep everyone on track. If we do this, a person will be less likely to become unaware of their current position in the roleplay. This applies to both the single thread and the 6 threads, but this will be super-helpful if we ultimately decide to use one thread. If you're about to enter a time or situation that will keep you away from the forums for any reason, have someone, preferably from your own faction, substitute for you. If you do so, tell that person what your current situation is in the roleplay so that they don't do something to mess it up. And please, don't get their OC killed, considering the fact that anyone's OC can die in this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh my Uncle gave me this Laptop and it already ahs skype. I just don't have an Account. And when i say he gave it, i ment borrow. This is only unitl i get my own computer. Once that happens i would have to download it. I guess i can make an account. Maybe. But i never heard of Chatango though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GreyScholar 1,574 January 5, 2013 Author Share January 5, 2013 jonathon.wilder is my name on Skype, and really if Skype doesn't work Chatango would work well. Chatango.com, a chat site were people come together to talk, mingle, and even roleplay. Though when I say 'roleplay' I mean ALL types of roleplay, yes even adult roleplay.
