As we speak the tests are still being created/finished. Im sorry no new news as of yet. I will keep you posted.

Well Ill agree with Faust on the more defined postin areas. My suggestion...Maybe an IRC channel??? ^_^

You make some good points there Kethruch. I would suggest that you keep the thread together for the time bveing. After the changes are implemented; and threads are split up and you have completed the DM Test; splitting them up then would be the best time. I relesided that both remaining RPs would be open ended hence pausing them as the tests are made and delevered; and soon as each memeber who wants to be in the RP Forum completes thoses tests; they would be able to do so and continue on in the new RP Forum. As for when the tests will be..........Im still waiting for Daerk to get back to me. HeLLL

Well in all honesty thats how it is most likely going to be like. It seems the most logical way to do it. <and the easyiest :lol: >

I new you would be trouble Peregine :lol: :P But seriously good idea. The idea behind waiting till all RPs where finshed was to reduce the "stop and start" effect. But I like the idea. Even better keep the thread alive and when the tests are avaible we "pause" your RP and the memebers concerned take the tests and when that is said and done "un pause" the thread in the new forums? Yay? Nay?

Thanks Kethruch I appreciate your comments. ^_^ To answer your question if a new person joined it they would be allowed to. All RPs that are currently ACTIVE will be allowed to finish. Things will be "as they are" UNTILL all RPs are finished THEN the tests will be given. I have contacted Daerk as he was going to create the tests. As of yet I have not heard anything back from him. I was tempted to hand the tests out BEFORE the active RPs finish butt hat would not be fair to the active RP creators. Once again any comments/suggestion/questions. Post them and I will be more than happy to help. HeLLL

Well no not really. Why is it harsh? The tests are not designed to be a fail/pass but more as a buildiing block to show the RPers where they need to "improve thier game".

Um Im a guy not a chick ^_^ Anyway....... The changes will be this; Compulsory tests on all faciets of RP will need to be completed. And those that complete them will be alowed access to the RP Forums. For those who want to make there own R; they will have to set another test as well.

I would like to formely announace that I will be the new RP Moderator. I have asked for DarkOnes permission <as you do> and he has granted it. I know that these are confusing times and I sincerly appolgise for that. I hope that this new system will not deter anyone from continuing to RP or to begin. Myself am a avid RPer <both here and IRL>. So I can appreciate the "been left out of the loop" feeling when something changes. All I can say is please bear with me. Together we can create the most intriging and in-depth Role Playing experiance for all to enjoy. Please feel free to ask/comment on anything. Regards HeLLL

Your not going crazy Rynos. I to am amzed at the necromancy here. PLEASE people there are enough threads floating around showing correct etiquite on these forums. /Wonders if ANY one bothers to read the various threads or the TOS......

Please Note that from now <as in Novemebr 1st NZST> there will be no NEW RPs starting up. All the RPs that are currently in progress will be aloud to continue on. So PLEASE do NOT create any new RPs. However those who RPs are currently active will be aloud to continue on untill they have finshed.

Calm down people. Each is entitled to thier own opnion. If you disagree <and it is of personal nature> take it off the board or PM each other <like you have been doing>. In response to the Mods being "harsh" I can only speak for myself but in the last 2-3 weeks I have done more locking and censoring of posts than ever before. The amount of unaccpetable material <SPAM, Trolling and Flaming> is incredible. If everyone just followed the TOS and used common sense then we wouldn't have to be "harsh". My two cents anyway. Play nicely gentlemen. HeLLL

Ok this is how it will work. I will create a new thread where if you want to join the new RP Forums; you will post in it. I will go through the list and either "fast track" applicants or ask them to sit a test. Those who will be "fast tracked" are those who IMHO; beyond resonible doubt; obey the rules and create a enjoyable RP experiance. I will use my RPing personal experiance with the applicant or by a search of they 3 latest RPs that they have joined/been a part of. to decide who is "fast tracked". If you are asked to complete a test do not worry. It is because I may have not of RPed with you or there is insuficent posting in the RP forums to warrent a "fast track". I will create the tests and email them to you. They will be different everytime to elemnate the possibilty of passing on notes etc. Please use this thread to convey your thoughts/oppinions of the new road MWS RP Forums will be taking. HeLLL

:lol: Im not sick of hearing from you Peregine. At least you are taking an interest and voicing your concerns. I am not to sure of how the merge will happen niether when. Those details I will ask. As I said. The tests are not really designed as a pass/fail but more of an indication of where your skills are at. As soon as I know the answer to your question I shall reply.

These boards are like that aye :lol: Something not working. Tell someone and POW it works. It is proably Dark0ne working his magic. ;) B)

Welcome to the Forums Lady Rae!! To answer your question; with the old site <before Dark0ne redone it> I would have to log in to the main page as well as the forums. Have you tried this?

The tests will determine how will you RP. It will not be a right or wrong type of test but one that will determine where you strngths and weakness lie. I underastand that you may not want to join because of the tests but IMHO if that is the case you are not really there to RP. The test system was agreed upon because it will be easier to determoin peoples stengths and weakness and potential problems BEFORE they RP. As for the RP nwbies it was proposed that a thread/forum be set aside for new RPers to hone there skills. Practice makes perfect. Similar systems like this exsist and are quite effective in bringing the level of RP up a knotch. Wesay; allowing everyone to RP and when Reported blocking said offender will be exactly the same style that is here at the moment. IMHO prevention is better than cure. Peregine; The tests <as propsed> will be made up by certain Admin/Moderators and will specifcally test the Rper in certain RP situations. This is to see how he/she might react to certain situations in a real RP. This is to overall bring the standard of RPing up here. I am in NO way saying that at the moment the RPing is sub-par but with constent disturbance in the RP Forums a solution must be applied.

Ok. The RP forums will work like this <correct me if Im wrong mods/admins>. There will be a series of "tests" that will determine who can create RPs or join them. Those who pass the tests will be given permission to RP <they will be given access to the RP forums>. This is to enable a more enjyable RPing experiance by making sure that all RPers are they same or higer standard deemed acceptable/nessaciry to RP.

It has been decided to slow/stop the curve of SPAM and Flames that seem to be generating alot here. This is a blatent rip from Theta because IMHO she summed up exactly what will be happening etc. As you can see some changes will be happening. This has been in the works for a while now. This was the main concern:

Well its not the votes but the general opinion of the board at that time. If you RTA you will come to see that the majority of users at THAT time liked the idea. IMHO publicly showing the post count increases SPAM. Im afraid that it is a tried and true fact. As for the amount of code to re-write it. Very little if I read correct. Turn off option here. And "poof" no more publicly displayed post count.

Well if we change the ranking system shouldn't we consider this? Vote standed at Yes = 5 and No = 8. Reread my orginal argument for the reasoning behind it.

My name is Helllight. I am from a line of noble mages on Summerset. I am trying to adapt to the harsness of these lands but there are more beasts than I first imagined. Luckly I studied hard in my youth. Destruction and Restoration. The power to take life and give life. What about yourself? /HeLLL sits down at the table with toxin and signals to the barman for a drink of Flin.

HeLLL walks into the bar after a very long absense. The Altmer looks fatigued and is sporting a couple of gashes on his back. He shuffles towards the argonian and taps him on the shoulder "May I sit with you?" He retreats his arm from the shoulder of the Argonian and waits for a reply.

Ghaddamn it! Scrpt kiddies pi$$ me off!! :angry: :angry:

Nah if we aim at nothing instead of aiming at "perfection" we won't be dissapointed when we don't reach perfection. B) Albareth you do?? Aww thank you. Even though Im not a girl and Im not 6 My Little Ponies still rings a bell in my childhood memories <even though those childhood memories most likely will be incorect according to the Inverse Law Of Memory :P>
