Frokane's Mildly Politcal Hangout Thread

It's kinda a shame because I would like to discuss politics from time to time. I clicked this thread because of Le Pen/Macron and the French elections but looking for a real discussion doesn't seem practical considering the thread so far.

@Kratesis

We could always make a thread for actually discussing politics (and maybe current events since those interest me)?

Alternatively, merge tabletop, NRP and arena into 'Niché RP' or a more fitting name that properly describes their 'different nature'. They all seem to fall in that category. Why not put them together like that. Seems more fitting, if you put it that way.

@Buddha

While I understand your approach, wouldn't that change very little about the website aside from a slight organizational adjustment?

You opinion is a P.O.S and so are you.

@Xavier Bloodbayne

I don’t have a positive view of Arena

@Inkarnate

Hmm, I wonder why.

o No flaming
o No ad hominem
o 'Be Fonz Cool', whatever the fuck that means
o Constructive criticism only, naming an issue is one thing, complaining and whining another
o Motivate your answers
o Try to think of solutions as well as problems

@Buddha

On a serious note, this was placed on the first post of this thread. Either come here to discuss civilly or don't at all. We're wanting to help the website we love and if there is suggestions that you disagree with, please politely explain as to why. Right now these are only suggestions and we have to keep in mind that this is discussion meaning that nothing is set in stone.

Everyone's voices are equally important here.

Yeah, but the expansion of the tag system has been discussed by Mahz before I believe. I’m for a more cohesive and comprehensive tag/search system. Just not sub-forums.

@Inkarnate

I don't really care for the method of organization, just that the idea could be beneficial. I would really support either option.

I don’t know about that one, Cynder. My perspective lies in the fact that RPG has more cohesive ability when it is simple and concise instead of complex; I thought the general consensus was that we don’t want to be like Iwaku, RPN, or RPA?

@Inkarnate

We already have tags, I don't see what the harm of adding more and being able to search/filter them out would be.

Also on a completely unrelated side note, but I saw this mentioned during last's night discussion and I think it was a really good suggestion: the creation of a subforum or tag to filter fandom-based Roleplays from original concepts. Just a thought as it seems that most of the sections here have been swept out by Roleplays with a focus on certain fandoms.

Sorry for the short response! I'll probably have a longer post coming up with Norma's introduction and/or Jordan's panel.

As far as a tag system goes, yes. An adult or age requirement tag would be great. An entire split sub forum I believe is a bit much.

@Lady Amalthea

I think that both would work equally fine, so I don't see a need to nitpick any specifics. As long as it's solved, it has support from me no matter the organization.

"Sounds great!" The prospect of spending the day together and then eating with one another at Olive Garden sounded more than just great in Ivy's mind, but the spider-obsessed girl had no other way in words to express how fantastic the day was going to be. "But first, we should be enjoying the convention and then we'll be discussing dinner."

While it was true that the group had, for the most part, finally met up, they were still three people short: Jordan, Phoenix, and the Australian enigma that nobody had confirmation on whether or not she was attending, Norma. With that in mind, it was Leah who suggested what the united group of online friends should do next:

"Oh yeah! It's almost time for the MysticDirector panel! We should go see it and then catch up with Jordan and Phoenix!"

I don't see why we need a smut and non smut section. Smut isn't supposed to be on the forum. Adult themes have to be kept to pm's. That really should just put as part of the 1x1 interest check, whether or not the person is open to it.

@Lady Amalthea

As someone who actively uses the 1x1 Interest Check section, I entirely think that a tag to separate smut searches from non-related smut searches is entirely needed. It's a pain in the butt to scroll through three pages of mature Roleplay searches in order to find a fantasy, dystopian, or whatever your taste of Roleplay is. Some people have even avoided the 1x1 Interest Check section because of this while others had made it into a "joke" of sorts.
