@PoiA handful of people is not a majority when there's over 100+ writers on this site. If you've said your peace, then you don't have to post anymore. I am going to continue to see if this can become a thing since there are writers who actually agree with this idea. If no one liked the idea, then I would let it go, but there are writers who want to see it happen.

Sounds like what you want is already offered and, in fact, has been done before in any of the three main sections. I'm not really looking foreword to adding a dead-on-arrival subsection to a forum that already has 3 sections that under-perform on a near permanent basis.

Absolutely agree with this sentiment.

There are several facilities that allow the development of world-building through the forums current framework and cluttering it with more sections is counterintuitive to the website’s seamlessness and simple design.

It actually makes the design even simpler by condensing an entire section. Again, even if this idea was implemented. You would still RP here. Those who want to use it, those who need it, will use it.@Inkarnate

Correct. Thank you for stating the obvious. I was unaware you only wanted opinions supporting your idea.

That happens to be true, yet the majority of those who have posted in this thread have negative responses to your idea.

Topic of debate. As long as points are being made, it is up to discussion.

I am going to continue to see if this can become a thing since there are writers who actually agree with this idea. If no one liked the idea, then I would let it go, but there are writers who want to see it happen.


I've only seen one person who liked the idea, and only one person who thought to make a compromise. To my knowledge, the rest of the opinion is a negative response.

Then why ask for feedback if you're, for the most part, ignoring any kind of negative feedback?

@PoiIgnoring negative feedback? What is not ignoring negative feedback? Are you saying I'm supposed to agree with you or you're expecting me to agree with you? I have already clearly stated that I don't agree. If you're expecting me to magically change my opinion, I have yet to see a reason to do so.

I'm not expecting you to agree or disagree with me. I've pointed out that more people are not in favor of this idea than in favor, and so far instead of an actual argument, all your last few posts happen to be "regardless of how one views this idea, they'll still RP." Whilst this is a true statement, you have yet to offer any criticism towards the negative side of your idea besides that.

@PoiI haven't because I have if you just read everything I've said so far. I would be repeating myself over and over again because I have yet to see any reasoning that says this isn't condensing threads and that this idea wouldn't work. Your claims were completely hypothetical. What can be proven is that people world-build. What cannot be proven is whether people will use or not use the world-building thread.

If you thought that this discussion was only going to stay open for one day and its existence was going to rely on "one day" worth of feedback, then you're wrong. This idea is going to stay open for longer than one day. That's how you run a survey. This is going to stay open for as long as I feel it necessary, and when I feel that majority of the players truly would not support or will support this idea, then I'll let it go.

Seems like switching the Test forum from OOC threads to RP threads with all three tabs would be a solution to this, and still be a big enough umbrella for other uses.

As Ink said. I'd be more likely to agree with an overhaul of the test section rather than an entire new subsection.

@RubyThe Test Forum looks exactly like a World-Building section with how people have been using it.

As Ruby said, just adjust how the testing forum works and people will use it accordingly. No need to rename it or make a new forum or whatever. Don’t need to be superfluous.

@RubyYou can edit the name to say "World Building" and then merge the Character Sheet section in there as a subsection. It makes it easier and condenses forums. My argument has been "Should a World-Building section be made?" How it is made whether adding a section or editing an existing one, however it is done, is not the argument. The argument was whether it should exist or not and it seems since majority of the people in here have been using the Test Forum like a world-building thread despite disagreeing with its existence...that alone says "Yes. It needs to happen."

I don't think the name should be changed, or anything should be merged. The Test Forum and Character Forum still have a purpose besides world building.

Yup, do this.

Yes. And I'm sure someone will use the Test forum for some other reason, and another besides that, etc. Keeping one's options open is good.

Plus if we rename Test forum, we'd still need a Test forum.
