@Dinh AaronMkBecause it is respectful to wait patiently for others to post. This RP is NOT nor will it EVRR BE central to one nation/rper and posting more times than anyone else gets a chance to post is rude and inconsiderate

@Derlerks123

Waiting for others to post is an easy kill to an RP. I'm not trying to make this RP central to my own. If I have an opening and if it's in what I feel is in a workable space of time between my last post and what will happen next in my own plot arcs I will take it. But to expect to have to wait for anyone is an easy RP suicide.

I will, as I will expect other writers, to post when the open space is given. The only point in which ego plays in is in the event of posting twice in a row without anyone else posting between my own posts. Which isn't a problem with me, I always wait for at least one person to post.

To be honest it's a good thing for any RP if anyone posts at all. And in an RP as young as this where regularity of certain players is not yet established it'll be a bad thing for all of us to wait to take turns and not take posting opportunities as they come.

Activity - even if from a few individuals - should always be welcomed and their energy shouldn't be spited in the name of someone else to post before them. In my own RPs if we waited for one recognized regular to post at all we'd have my own crown jewel dead years ago. And even now if we waited for any one person to post in succession it would almost most certainly be dead, and not the sleepy lumbering thing it is now (since it takes any of the "Major three" at least a week to compose a post for that).

My own experience has only taught me that waiting turns for a slow, disinterested, or uninspired poster to post is a quick death at the hand of sloth or someone's writer's block. Anyone and everyone should be invited to move when they got an opportunity, so long as this is not in a conflict or discussion where trading posts between two or more individuals is required; but I'm not involved in any of this so I'm not obligated to wait.

@Derlerks123
Even though I've only made one post I'm inclined to agree with @Dinh AaronMk I'm still interested in this game, but my region is in such great OOC turmoil that trying to do anything major would be stepping on someone's toes. If there's some business going on in the Americas that doesn't affect Europe at all then fuck it, go right ahead. But if everyone in a certain region starts leaving one inactive poster behind then we encounter problems.
That being said, it would be real nice to see some activity from @Avalant and @Brink_ since you two are my theoretical and actual neighbors respectively and it would be nice to actually be able to do something.

@RhineQueen

Well to pass you a suggestion for what to post then you don't need to think externally when you post at all in an NRP. This is something I and my friends have taught ourselves when going about our posting.

Given we all run large "nations" (quote-unquote) we are in possession of several hundred-thousand up to a million individuals all within our control. And what I can tell what @Brink_ is doing is something of internalized establishment of what things are in-country. And that's something what everyone should have in mind. A good NRP shouldn't have to play out as a game of Age of Empires where all the "characters" are unit pawns of some grand design no one questions. What we have as citizens are individuals or groups with their own aspirations, intriques, and ambitions. These should and need to be explored.

And when we're in question about something external not moving in synch with the rest of us there's always these internalized stories. And an internalized story is also what I'm doing.

As a force of habit I begin what I've started to refer to as a "root arch" as an internalized story so I can explore and peck about what my nation is about, and from there develop anything that'd be developmental from a Civilization or Age of Empire sort of stance, but because it suits the ambitions of the characters I discover along the way. I leave a lot to be determines until I get there with these actors, because I don't know how often they'll organically evolve until I do write them (Dr. Paston for instance).

Brink I think looks like he's doing something similar, albeit slower. I don't know if he's already writer block'd himself or if he somehow became disenfranchised with what may have been planned. But my suspicions suggest that maybe he's figuring out who could or who will become a perspective character.

Sorry guys. Coming into peak season soon at my work place earlier than expected. Annoying kept me off RPguild for waaay too long. >:(

For the sake of others who might be interested in my previous claim, I'm pullin out. Good luck on your NRP! Has plenty of potential fun!

@Avalantthats a shame, I was really looking forward to seeing your country in this. Oh well, I wish you luck with work and hope you may join us if we are to do another one in the future

@RhineQueen@Brink_@bluetommy2@Commodore Robot@AkitaKhrushchev So, I was wondering where everyone was because there has been a lack of posts in the IC section

@TheRebelKnight I'm here, just been too busy to post, maybe tonight, but i'm busy right now.

@bluetommy2no problem, I was just wondering about. Before you post head over to PM I have a question

@TheRebelKnight
Akita quit.

So this is Suuper dead.

So this is Suuper dead.

I would totally post something but I'm in doubt of the longevity of this RP.

Which honestly probably wasn't a surprise given the organization.

Dang, I was planning to join this

Allow me to state and confirm what everyone is thinking; Yes, this rp is, unfortunately, dead. If you would like to start one like this one or just take over this RP entirely, you will have to ask Rebel. I will be withdrawing completely from this site as well as I have school I must focus on. However before I go I would like to say that, throughout the entire existence of this thread, one person has been a massive pain in my side; @Dinh AaronMk. My disliking of you started from the very moment I saw your profile picture and ever changing signature, all of which is MLP related, which I find disgusting and degrading for a human being to be so involved in a show for children. However I did my absolute best to remain diplomatic and remove my bigotry, which I did pretty damn good at if I may say so. Despite my best attemtps at diplomacy, all you have ever done is complain and take a passive aggresive stance against Rebel and I. I have never nor do I think I will ever understand how a human can be so whiny and intolerable in a place where everyone is trying to have fun. This was a casual rp and you turned it into something I wanted to avoid. Every moment I loaded up this website and logged in I had a strong feeling you would have commented complaining about yet another thing you disagree with, and you expect Rebel and I to be experts at this thing. Of course we aren't, you bleeding idiot, we explained from the VERY BEGINNING that we are new and trying to learn the ropes. In my small time here I've already run into a fair share of assholes and I don't have the patience nor the time to deal with it all. So, with that rant out of the way, I bit adieu, to those who made my time here even a little bit more tolerable. Auf Wiedersehen, und gut Glück.
