Hard Times

[Deleted]

Okay, guys. It's obvious this forum isn't gdoing it's best. I want to change that, but I need HELP.

We could just give up... or

we can keep trying to revive this forum. With

A) Fresh start. We could keep all our cats, but it's set back to it's original time and place, we don't need a meeting os fast, and no drastic problems has occured. Along with new codes and skins.

B) Keep everything the same, and only advertise majorly. Nothing new.

C) Only new codes and skins.

~_

I know That if I change the codes and teh skins and everything, Tangles and Crook with be angry, but. WHAT ELSE CAN WE DO? FFFFF

And, I know I sound hypocritical, which I'll admit, these next fwe days I won't relalyb e on, because i"m really sickk, but.

I had to post this before i Forgot.

You know, my sister (who is also an RPer) says that when an RP site goes dead and you want to start it up again you don't just make a new site just like the old one (or something alone those lines). You have to find out what lead to the site dieing and find a way to fix it so that when you open it up again you probably won't have the same problem happen again. I was on a site that died, came back, and died again. I don't think it was much different then what it was like before it reopened, and I think that that, and that alone, was the reason why it died. Plus, most of the admins had stuff going on outside of the site so they were gone while the site died. *shrugs* But hey. That's just an opinion.

Yeah, I understand that. >< Part of the admins not showing up as much is one of the reasons, I bet.. Idk.

I really am scared that if I change a few things, Crooks and Tangles will yell at me or something "You didn't have permission"

Hard to have it when they're gone.. :l

Well, I can see how that would be a problem. But if they're not here on the site as much as they used to, they can't really blame you. I think it's kind of necessary to start fresh rather then watch the site die out all together, and if they're not here to give you permission to change things, they're not exactly here to NOT give you permission to change things. Maybe if there was a way to contact them outside of the site, then we could see if that's alright, but I'm not sure if there is one.

First off, I'm really glad that somebody actually would have the site revived. But unfortunately, I wouldn't be able to take part in it. With senior year coming up, I'm going to be working on getting into college. I have a job, now, too, three summer books to read, and I have swim practice twice a day. There's just no way I'd be able to fit this site in.

But as far as permission goes, Zim, I'd say feel free to do whatever you want. When the admins left the first time, I tried to pick up charge, and when the came back they were just glad someone had. And making a new site would actually allow you the powers that the have blocked from us, giving you more of an ability to run the site well. Until Tangles or Crooks comes back, they don't have any power left.

Hey everyone! I'm glad you're here to help get the site up and running again Zim. I'm really sorry I've not been on here recently, I'm still recovering from the spinal fusion I had back on the 23rd and the pain meds make me really really tired, not to mention the surgery itself exhausted me. Sorry, again. i kinda like the first idea personally, but it's up to you. would our cats keep the same positions they're in?

[Deleted]

Wipe it all, keep the cats and their positions but just wipe it. Well actually, no a major site clean-out could help, but you need to go through this with careful precision. Think everything. Figure out how the site was dieing, even just brainstorm first and go from there. Then, before wiping it clean, get everything plotted out before. Edit the plot with the ideas that would make it even better and such, maybe close it down a week for maintence and some power work then load it up again and get it going? Maybe don't advertise till we get everything the way we want it. I don't know, I guess we just need to start hacking away at it. If we end up stepping on some toes, we can't help it. It's going to happen with whatever we do.

[CROOKY]

Hey guys Crooks Here!
Alright I totally understand the anger. Tangles let me know the other day that she just abandoned you guys >> << Anyways I'm here to help out and establish a way you guys can keep the site up without us. Ill make sure to check in more often but keep in mind College takes a lot of my time. Dont worry Zimmy We wont be mad. We just want to make sure everything looks good so new members will join! Also if you are interested in being the new body of staff pm me to so we can talk about it. Otherwise Zimmy take it away :]

I agree with what everyone else is saying. We need to figure out what caused it to die and start from there. Also, leave the positions everyone has unless when the site is "redone" they are not active then they can be demoted. I'm just really happy you guys aren't ready to give up yet!

>< I would of replied to this sooner, but...

@crooks, I wasn't sure because when we were going to do the Plane plot, when Tangles wasn't here to get permission, she seemed a bit upset with me. :l Thanks for saying you weren't, and it'd be okay and stuff:P I try
@spotted, I'm sure that's fine:P Really. I'll still be here if you need to talk. I think you know that:P
@everyone else, I love you guys <3 with all the support and everything... that made me glad.
I would of typed more but I gotta get goin'. ><
