We need that info both for you to look back on and for us to know your character. How would that be irrelevant?

We do need to know everything we can about your characters. It helps to form relationships and even possiblee plots.

I know. I didn't take them out of the character tab, I was just mentioning I have backups in case something happens like the site crashes or there's a glitch or something.

Oh, alright. That's valid.

Why haven't you finished most of your characters?

For the good of this roleplay, you all need to get histories done. Most of your characters are twenty four moons old, and have NO history. I've tried playing a not detailed but old cat before, and it is boring and hard to think of emotional beats for. Trust me. I mean, do what you, want, it's not an order, just my advice.

I think most of the characters aren't major characters so it's not relevant. I could be wrong.

@Squashedquatch Do you plan on making characters as well/joining in?

Here's a plot idea! I don't know if you'll be ok with the worldbuilding, but we could tweak it.

In the night, a mysterious cat visits Curlstar. It's dark and she can't see his face. She was just woken up and assumes she's dreaming. She's also very tired and not paying attention. The cat has her make some kind of contract on Starclan that she doesn't read (I know they wouldn't have a contract, I mean something verbal/spiritual that binds her). The agreement is that she will destroy (the colonies/ rainclan/ other colonies except for rainclan). She wakes up in the morning and laughs at the weird dream. cut to regular life. A few nights later, when she's awake before she goes to bed, the visitor returns and asks why she hasn't started fulfilling her promise yet?

The visitor could be Falconpaw or Snakepool, someone from another clan, someone from the dark forest, or some wanderer like Sol with a random vendetta.

If you don't want that to happen to Curlstar, it could happen to Winterstar, but I figured it would be more personal in rainclan.

Here's another candidate (if you want to go with the plot) it could be a scheme by Misspaw. Though that would be difficult since I'll be writing inside her head. She could have put Falconpaw up to it though, to try and destroy her rivals. Maybe she told him to tell Curlstar to destroy the other clans so she can brag to her father about causing the destruction of their enemies, at which point he gets really, really angry with her.

Myke, could Whiteberry be Irispaw's mentor? I would rather her mentor be played by a different person.

NO.

NO

Okay, so plot time. Here's the plot:

The Clans have lived in harmony, though the occasional scuffle isn't unheard of. However, peace between them has been disturbed. Stolen prey, strange scents, and odd sightings. It has caused a disturbance between them. Tensions are rising and only time will tell if they will find peace or break out into war. Will they find the true cause of these mysterious happenings before it's too late?

Ok, great! And why such a strong reaction?

Who said we were starting?!

I assumed that having a plot meant we were starting.

And anyway, I've had everything there sitting in a different page for a while now. What's the hold-up? (if that came across as rude, sorry, I'm still in shouting-at-the-principal-for-doing-literally-nothing-about-bullying-and-harassment mode, my brain isn't worried about being polite.)

(I have collected myself somewhat)
I have a few questions, actually, since I'm not certain we have the same definition of roleplay.

Firstly, who's in charge? You and Bluregard seem to be waiting on Myke but answering for her and it's really confusing.

Secondly, and I don't mean to come across as confrontational, but I feel like everyone takes issue with me and I can't quite figure out why. As in, you're very quick to shut me down and you jump to negative conclusions before trying to understand what I'm saying. Maybe I'm doing something wrong, but if I am could you please just point it out and help me understand how to be more productive and cooperative instead of cutting me down?

I also don't understand, and this may go back to us having different definitions of roleplay, why do we need a complex plot? Why do we have to wait for months? Isn't this just a game? Why can't we focus on having fun? And in that vein, now that we have a plot, why can't we start? Also, while it's fine if my idea wouldn't work, I didn't appreciate having two people shout "NO" without any explanation. It came across as aggressive and I felt singled out.

Please consider my questions. I don't mean to be agressive. I am getting very frustrated with the continuous lack of explanations and aggressive responses. While I really enjoy roleplaying and devote a lot of time and attention to them, at the end of the day it's just a game and I don't think it's worth fighting or demeaning people over. I just want to understand.

Thanks,
Dawn
