Haha ! Nah, don't get me wrong, the less clustered it is, the better.
Yea..I wouldn't agree to a discussion area. It seems unnecessary when we talk about everything all over the place. And unless something completely different comes up, I think we have the necessary threads for the necessary issues.

It's hard to tell the difference between the new member color and the werewolf color.
Do vampires and demons have different colors?
The GOs' colors are a little hard to see in light theme.
I suggest you get the color key thing I had on Tiric and customize it for here, make it more clear what's what.
Why are there two different kinds of triangle things for custom titles?
Are we gonna put peoples' powers and such in custom titles eventually?

Are we gonna put peoples' powers and such in custom titles eventually? the color diff is only on the one theme (light) which is the default one, unfortunately. that's the one problem with having a half a dozen different themes. >< I'm seriously debating shifting the Gifted Ones color, simply because of the hard to see aspect. particularly because GOs are the most populous race. The color key is something I honestly don't know how to do, and i need to get it on a list for someone to do so. The symbols are different for each sex, it's to help differentiate and because I feel like it. I'm not sure about the powers thing just yet. That does show up on the Roster, and should be apparent. I'm just concerned because some people are already cluttered there, and adding more could make it worse |

Yo guys i wanted to make some suggestions
with the species traits i know the pros and cons are there to keep everything in order and to avoid overpowered characters.
My character (which i dont know if its ok to be a vamp or not) who turns into a vampire under special conditions for example.
I wanted to exclude the con that he had the urge to drink blood, however he still needs to drink blood.
the pro is he can control himself
the con is he doesn't have the beastly sensation to go after blood, meaning he has to make up in his mind that he has to go and drink this blood (imagine you having to walk up to someone and do that).
Also if you guys are contemplating more species I'd like:
Valkyrie(rare)
Undead/Phantom
Im not planning to use those two just throwing my two cents in
EDIT BY KARMINE: I went ahead and changed the color for you to make it easier for us. Please consider our eyes when you type.

uh, what you're suggesting is pretty much what it says there. blood is necessary for their survival, the same way food and water is necessary for human survival. I'm not seeing what you're differentiating there.
I'm loathe to add any more species right away, as we've already got quite a few, especially when you consider halfers. Undead strikes me as being oddly close to the vampires we already have, and ghosts get really tricky really fast.
btw, I can't see your post unless I highlight it, you might want to try a different color. >.>

Are we thinking of affiliates ?
I'm trying to come up with advertising blurbs asap, and as soon as that's done, we'll get more guest rotation at least, or hopefully.
Also, Fate's picture went screwy :/

Also, Fate's picture went screwy :/ I don't see an issue with affiliates. I'm in good with two admins on different sites, and I figured I might ask them to affiliate as soon as we get things settled (which should be very soon). Feel free to advertise everywhere. I might be working up an ad today or something, though a shexy image would help that. |

Hmm, cool (:
I wasn't quite sure of our stance on advertising, but I thought affiliates would be good.
I'll send you drafts as soon as I get them done k(: !

1) I know you're not really looking forward to adding more species right now, but elves and dwarves might be important if we want to fully-transfer stuff. Elves could be tricky to separate from fey, but I'm sure we can manage. We're also going to eventually have a demand for angel-like-characters (I think WoM had avians at some point), and part-animal characters (dog ears, fox tail, sort of thing). I suppose you could say the part-animal characters would simply be a variant of an already-existing species, though. Also, will there be Djinn? I wanna see some Inventor/William fluffyangst.  2) I suggest you put a link to halfers in the species thing, because people may automatically go to the species page to look for that information. Not sure everyone-everyone is gonna know what "halfers" are off the bat. 3) I hear someone expressed not-likey for side-tables, but I think is important to make it obvious who our staff is. You know, so they're easier to contact and all, so you don't have to go through the member list. A stickied list would be less effective, cause it takes up more space and is less easy to find. 4) I think we should probably put peoples' gifts under the custom status thing. I don't think it'll be *too* cluttered, and sifting through the list all the time is gonna be a pain...especially when we start advertising and stuff. If you don't want to test it on here, I can do it on my testing site (that's what it's for, after all). It's set up to look like Tiric, though, not sure if that matters to you. I'd put in second gifts, too, to test level of clutter for the future. |

1) I foresaw the animal thing. It's perfectly acceptable to have a demon who displays animal characteristics. I'm waffling on the djinn, because TI, William, and Nate are all deeply embedded in that mythos (and Kenneth lightly so). Hate to burst bubbles, but there will never be elves. I find that having both elves and fairies is redundant. I might introduce angel-like characters as a future plot (I'm debating during this with ghost type things, as Vincent suggested)
2) Oops, I'll get right on it.
3) Another thing I'm waffling on. Jackie had something up, and honestly I like] side tables. It's just another thing on our to-do list that keeps getting overlooked.
4) I have no problem with this, does anyone else agree? I'm willing to go ahead and sift through it, shouldn't be too hard.

I can add people's gifts to their custom titles if you want, I don't mind the extra work. I like the angel/ghost species idea. Maybe like, creatures from an AU like demons, with different DNA (like Legion, but different), that perhaps need a human vessel to share, because if they show their true form it might hurt others...? Sorry, I'm getting this idea from Supernatural where the angels possess humans too because when they show their true selves to humans, they like... explode their eyeballz.
Could be interesting. I could totally see them being used as a plot-species. Imagine Chris having to share his head with another thing.
Chris: If you can't bare to picture a guy naked, then you're not gay.
Chris: Good, because. Ew. Just ew.
Angel: Why are we trying to picture naked men?
Chris: AHH I CAN SEE IT NOW.
Angel: Sorry, I'm a girl.
HAhaha.
