The RP boards will not be made public unless there's a majority vote - the main advantage to opening them is that guests may be likelier to join if they can read some of the roleplay threads first. The Featured Threads board is a compromise between the two options, but in order for it to work some threads have to be nominated first. « Last Edit: Sept 22, 2009, 2:00pm by WeyrSparrow » Link to Post - Back to Top   Logged Plotting Page Theta Adolescent Mavrosite [M:11] member is offline Joined: Mar 2009 Gender: Female Posts: 179 Re: Should the RP boards be opened for guest viewi « Reply #1 on Aug 10, 2009, 8:06pm » I have no problem making them public, and if it brings in some new blood, that'll always be good.

It's one of the best ways to judge not only characters, but the roleplayers themselves through their writing style.

The RP boards will be opened for guest viewing.

While it's great to see us with a 52 member total, we don't have that many posters. 90% are probably lurkers who just wanted to read the threads, and while some of them might create a character, it seems to me if they browse the board enough they will join if they really enjoy our club.
