Let's face it. Despite your best effots of plots, the reattempt at the olympics, and the increasing number of RPs, Blackstar is losing the pizaz it had when it opened. Or maybe I'm just bored.

Anyways, I was wondering if we might start a forum wars spin off, except have the basis be a war between the EC and the Guardians. Members of both would be free to pick sides, or to play both sides with diferent characters, and randoms would be free to interact as they please.

What say you? Would you like to play? Twisted Evil


That is a PM I just sent to Fort. I await "her" reply, but until then, what does everyone else think?

Hay Goron. What will the EC think if clone 9999 comes with his blue box.

*Wonders how Hollow Eyes with think when he sees what's inside the box.*

I think the war is a good Idea for keeping black star active.

I like this idea.

Although, I have a feeling this lull is people going back to school/college/uni. And as such, people are finding it hard to find the time to post at the moment.

There aren't many regular roleplayers left at the moment. As such, perhaps a few pms here and there could re-ignite their interest. People shouldn't have stopped roleplaying just because of the olympics.

It realistically didn't actually take up that huge a chunk of time. Well, for me personally it didn't.

But people started disappearing around the time of the olympic lull. But the most recent lull is due to school/college/uni.

But I am up for war... Twisted Evil

Can there be a way to keep such a war from involving the other threads on other boards?. Not necessarily any character developments, but I would rather not really divide the dojo more than necessary.

I too have noticed the "lull", good threads are going dormant. Wild west, Labyrinth, Corp Dev. 2, What are Gerbils!?!?, Hot Girls on Dating.

What is this world coming too Wink

I really enjoy this little escapist diversion of RPing, I'd hate to see go any more quiet. I'm not convinced that a war will reinvigorate it but these kinds of threads will at least give us something to do, and they are a type of thread that seem to have a longevity built in, so give it a try. I'll fight.

I doubt I can join in, for that very reason. The end of the university year is when they throw all the assignments at you.

Roleplays like this usually end up as a powerplay-fest anyway. I honestly don't feel like getting involved in another one of those at the moment Sad.

Suit yourself Shadowveil. I was just looking for a big RP, like Corporate Development 1 was. One that really got lots of people involved. As I'm advertising this to the EC and to us, that will include just about all of Blackstar.

I was thinking it doesn't just have to be war. We could add a little adventure forcing everyone to work together towards a solution or something. There's also other little sub-plots we could have, like random court-cases, food-eating races and other high-class mini-plots Razz

I am really interested in a good RP that would attract the involvement of some of the established characters qt the Dojo, but an eternal war would not be my first choice (although I will probably pafticipate whatever it is).

As Goron has already proposed a war to the EC, something like that could provide a starting point, but GBE's ideas have merit too, could we think up somthing of a plot that sort of blends the two ideas?

I'm with GBE about how it doesn't have to be a war, though I think a war would be nice Twisted Evil . I definitely agree on having a big RP (even bigger than forum wars and such Razz ). I agree with Shine about blending the two ideas together. In other words, I definitely agree with a big RP and with blending the war and mini-plot (especially the food-eating races Very Happy ) ideas.

Sacriel bounced in, followed by a cold, somber walk of Elizabeth. "Heya guys! Omg! Yay! I soooo totally have to try out this whole war thing!" Sacriel bounced up and down, her arrows making a noise from her back and her hair bobbing up and down, yet landing perfectly on her shounders. All this time Elizabeth watched, an emotionless look on her face. "It is logical to go to this 'war'" She said, in a monotone voice. "It may just create a more active attitude in the world. Yet, by my calculations, we have a larger active member pool. I believe we have the higher percentage of winning." Elizabbeth stood straight, like a soilder all the time. Not even breathing... well, like she needed to.

I'm really confused by this whole switching genders thing. Did you used to be Raven, or who?

BTW, I'm not buying it, but in time we will forget the old, and the new folks won't know and then you can switch back and thrill everybody.

Or, I could be confusing you with someone else and I COULD BE MAKING A FOOL OUT OF MY SELF, BUT WHAT'S NEW.....

I'm sick of waiting. Would one of our members that is in the EC please present this idea to them?
