What to do?

So, is this forum worth watching?

I hope so but i see no reason to. The fault lies with the DMs, including me.

For my failure in my own threads i apologise. For the others, i am sorry.

Is there anything we can do?

is there any way to save this forum?

Re: What to do?

It's the fault of me (at least) too. I wait a looong time with posting somehow.

This forum (at least) definitely was worth it. Cleansing and Rommey still are most definitely worth it too.

But I don't know.

Activity?

Re: What to do?

Maybe we could all focus on one thread?

A new fresh start, just one thread, were five people is enough?

Re: What to do?

Thats an idea, but what do we make the thread about? For all five people to be interested we would have to all agree on what it should be about.

Though that may be easier than I think, as I don't know what other people are interested in (roleplaying wise).

Re: What to do?

I'd defenitely be in, I'd even make an effort to at least check for updates once a day or so. On a side note, hello everyone, it's been forever since I posted/done anything, and I've missed being around you bunch.

Re: What to do?

Though it may not seem like it I am still around keeping an eye on the forum, even if on basis as a mod for this section. Not that a lot happens here. Myself I have been busy sorting some things out for a while now, a task I am still in the process of doing somewhat. So to be honest I took the roleplaying mood out of me so I suppose somewhat blame for failing to post in some threads when I could of tried, a point I will try to correct hopefully soon as I can get back into roleplaying once this visa and job stuff is no longer such a big issue for me. With luck this forum might be resurrected even if partially.

Re: What to do?

I've been away for a long time, but found today two interesting e-mails in my Inbox. Apparently somebody's been trying to get into my forums account, using more than five incorrect passwords and getting it locked for 15 minutes each time. I was given two IP addresses in the e-mail.

I am amused by this failed attempt to steal something of very little value. Why would somebody want access to my account? I can't see how somebody could have typed the wrong username in ten times without noticing.

Where is everyone?

Don't tell me that after, what, a decade? this place is collapsing, eh?
