I want to leave RPOT the same as it is right now, but I want to try to get these bigger month long plots I'm starting to get some more publicity so some of the people who want a more serious plot and the people that just want to screw around can both be satisfied with RPOT.
I mostly will make changes in RP.
RPOT is a more casual RP forum, so I see no reason why we can't blow RP up into a hardcore RP forum. It's pretty much dead, and I rather have the semi-serious plots going on in it now in RPOT anyway. |
My main complaint is that all the well thought out topics get ignored, while the completely crappy ones get all the attention. |
That is a problem of the community, not something any amount of rule changing or programming can fix.
I could set up rules, but I'm sure they'd just get shot down like last time.

What do you plan to do about the Arcade and, more importantly, the Search function? |

I think the only appeal of the arcade is the highscores, and that is because people want to be recognized for their achievements.
I think an achievement like system involving titles or trophies, or something else like that, could cancel out the arcade and satisfy everyone.
The problem with the arcade is that the game that can work with it aren't really the best flash games on the internet, and people really shouldn't have to pay coins to play them.
And as for the search function, I really want to push for the old format, because it is nearly impossible to find old posts unless you spend an hour searching through old posts. |

Thank you for your honest reaction, Popple. It was in no way my ambition to insult you as a person, I merely wanted you to restate your position as I had some questions.
Fancy formulations aside - you talked clear stuff, I'll talk clear stuff.
This election is a load of bollocks. Most people joined for the heck of it, it quickly became a race of useless promises (as far as I am aware the president suggests ideas and relates problems to Francis and then possibly fixes them.) - spam forums, new boards, a pony farm, etc, and as any position at Digibutter that is appointed by public, it seems to have become all about popularity, not qualifications.
The only thing I now disagree with is your... spicy style of talking, but hey, express yourself. You get my effing' vote. Well done.
P.S. I seriously didn't want to offend you; I just have trouble with that sort of humor. |

So if this isn't a popularity contest, why do you choose people based on their appeal as a person to you ? That is the definition of popularity.
This should be about skill, not sliming. |

There was the whole coin motivation, as well. The Arcade would be a useful tool under a working economy.

What if, say, Francis could accept user-created game submissions, such as Plastic Mario's franis game?
| Quote: | | And as for the search function, I really want to push for the old format, because it is nearly impossible to find old posts unless you spend an hour searching through old posts. |
The forum search is definitely a necessity that every campaign needs to strive for. It is swell to see that my competition acknowledges this, as well. |

Here, here Cid. Member created games would be a great addition.
But swallow this. What if instead of the Arcade proceeding being deleted, the game maker got the coins thrust into the machine?
As well, I don't think people should make money from games. I much rather support post money and activity within the site. |

You look like the best choice. The problem is some people don't like you that much. |

Yes, but then again, you have to consider the other candidates. I'm falling off the face of the Earth, true, but I've got a good "Top 5" spot just on name alone. That'll knock off a bit of votes from the Cid/Goomba effort, one of the two 'extremely serious' efforts we see in this contest of popularity, then other candidates on my level, then a few below, and then the joke candidates. These detract more points from Cid/Goomba than Popple, thus making the thief generally sneak ahead on his opponents' weaknesses.
But hey, let's all party before the results go up, shall we? |

Yup pretty much this.
I hate it when good candidates are ignored and shoved to the side over emotions or whatever. >_> |
