Starwatchers is dying. The roleplays are moving really slowly, it's been kind of inactive...it's kind of like the site's in jeopardy now. So we need everyone to suggest ideas on what will make the site run better, to get people more active...
It's hard not to get nostalgic, think of when we were able to get people on and posting, when the site was more active. It's hard not to think of when RPing was more than something needed to keep the site going, rather, it was something enjoyable. I'm not sure how many others have felt it, but everything is feeling slow and, dare I say, dull.
Seriously, this is bad. Only a small pawful of people still RP, and it's hard to jump in and post. Only a few admin seem to get on often, and only a couple members come on. It's getting to be a problem. So...
What can we all do to save the site?

*Flinches* I can't believe this is happening once more. Yet another proboard dying. I hate to be the bad guy in this situation, but there is nothing we can do but start over. Even then the possibility of the site not dying is slim. We need to find expierienced members, and if they see a site that has about 30 members, some get scared that they won't be noticed. If the more active people here go to other sites, you have the chance of getting illiterates or no one. *Sighs* I've seen several good sites go down this path. I hate to say it, but there may be no going back.

I'm going to advertise SW on all the active sites I know of. There's this one site with over 1000 members that I'm on, and another one with just a little under 100. ;___; I'll suggest SW to everyone and anyone who's looking for a role play site. SW is my #1 priority, now. I have to push the other sites away temporarily, until SW is active again.

At least now I have read some of the books and better understand what you guys are talking about.
I am not much help...

Hmmmm. I have a couple of sites I belong to. One may be small, but it is quite literate. If everyone else is willing, then I'll fight for the site as well.

You want my opinion? Okay, I'll list them in no particular order.
1. Get a nice, subtle skin as a basic, keep the other ones, but use a nice one for a default, you know?
2. Get some nice, catchy codes. I can supply if you're interested.
3. Affiliate. This required a code I have, and some tedious, broing affiliation sprees, but it's worth it, right?
4. A table. I have one for you.
5. Try and get on twice a day. Don't procrastinate posting, just do it.
6. Nice graphics. I can supply.
7. Get rid of three clans. I know you're all going to scream at me for this because Suzie Ann doesn't wanna give up her clan and neither does Bobby Lee, but I'm just saying. It would make the site nicer.

I have a bunch of codes, I've just never used them for SW before. But I'll get them out. =3 I have a PM bar, Affiliate bar, a table, the Ultimate Info Center, and more. And please help with graphics, I suck at them. ;___; *Sigh* We'll can get rid of...PeakClan, JungleClan, and FruitClan? What do you say, guys? *Heads off to install codes*
...Are you perchance some one I know on FP? x3 I recognize that name.

No one rps in Fruits clan anyhow... well noone really rps in Peak clan or Jungle clan either, so it makes sense. I will have to relocate some of my cats from those clans then.

I don't mind JungleClan being utterly destroyed. xD Perhaps we can use the subtle LakeClan skin as the default? You guys seemed to like it. We'll need to redo the CBox.
Should we maybe start over with a clean slate with all Clans, or what? Move all RPs to Old RP?

Yeah, we'll move all the RP threads. =D We'll just say that the Clans have been peaceful ever since the battle. xD I'll change the C-box, but maybe we should give LakeClan a little makeover? It's a little bright to my computer. =/

All of JungleClan is moved to Old RP and Old Bios. Shall we proceed with the deletion?
