Only allow each person to make a certain amount of topics in there a day.
It would reduce the "domination" of RPOT by the elite RPers, and virtually eliminate spam topics in thar.
Just a thought. |

Seems like a good idea...but I keep having a feeling it will cause trouble somehow. |

It'd die.
How about all the really serious novel-form plots go in RP? :3 |

Well, from a semi-"elitist" point of view...
We all have ideas. We all want to forest them. And it feels like you're simply jealous and sad because we've proven ourselves to be capable authors and literary artists.
I would feel harmed by this, forever angered that something put a padlock on creativity. I think if everyone stopped whining about it and actually got involved in others' plots, things would be better.
In the words of Popeye:
"Is there but one Washington? Yes. Is there but one Lincoln? Yes. Is there but one RP'er?"
No.
The RPOT board needs to do what it was destined to do: become a thriving family of authors willing to aid each other in epic, humorous, and overall just pain fun tales.
That ist vhat moi says, and zat ist vhat moi vill continue to belief! Ze board lives by ze membairs in ze participation. If you vant participation, zen you all must contribute. But please, don't ignore moi or anyvon else, eizair.  |

Au contraire. I rarely go into RPOT, but I've heard enough people complain about it. |

That's what I felt. Sorry if it sounded a bit harsh, but I'm a bit sick of people whining about "OMG! MR I AND MSDEVIN AND MEDIKOOPA ARE THE ONLY ONEZ HERE! WE'RE ALL IGNORED! SHENANIGANS!"
I'm sorry, I don't WANT any feelings to get hurt, but in the end, it's all the choice of the members whether or not topics succeed or fail. So seeing all of them whine at once...it makes me really sad. |

Just because others can't create a storyline, or follow through, doesn't mean its the elitests fault.
Edit: I take Elitests as... People who roleplay good, mind you. Not how many good topics they make. |

...Suddenly, this is a horrible idea. I'm wondering why I even thought of posting it. =/ |

Because you were sick of complaints and thought it was an acceptable solution with minimal consequence?
It happens, no problems.  |

It's no fun if it's JUST other's plots. Some of us are really creative, and have great ideas, but they're too busy watching Medikoopa corrupt herself in every topic and you ride in on solid gold animals. |

Check out any topic I make in RPOT.
Unless it has "Bored" in the title, it sinks or people get too fussy, or it gets spammed into oblivion from the first post. *coughMALAKcough* |

I ride in on a golden elephant ONE time...*grumble*
Remember, this is a Mario forum. Try making a few Mario-based topics that don't involve the words "Toad Town". Try making members get interested, make it attracting for anyone to join, and make sure the characters have a solid foundation. Make sure that you make it so exciting and appeasing to the mass audience that everyone wants to play it.
I have a list of plots I could send you, if you'd like.  |
