hey, I'm new here but already I'm not really liking what I see. The lengths of some of these posts are horrendous! Can't we have a minimum post length or something? I want to challenge a few people for alphaship but won't for fear of being god-modded by noobs. I don't mean to offend anybody, but normally the longer you post, the more accustomed you are to RPG's. I mean, I wrote a 4 paragraph post and then I looked around...and felt like a god. Can't you put some effort into it? Lack of muse or writer's block isn't an excuse. If you feel like you can't post, DON'T. Gosh. Sorry, I just thought I'd say something before I waste my time writing a novel that will only get a 2 word reply.
Now about the revamp. This site could be awesome if it was allowed. I suggest you deleate all threads and posts, except bios and redo everything. Give it a fresh coat of paint so to speak. I have 3 of my own sites at the moment and I know how easily they get out of hand. Give me one afternoon and this place would be spick and span, without any annoying guest threads, lax rules, min. post length ect. Oh... one more thing
Claiming. The claiming posts totally suck and really make me sigh. "the leopard walks in and roars, claiming this territory as his own." pathetic. I think there should be a voting place where the members decide whom they want as alpha/ruler/leader or whatever you call it lol. But this kinda goes along with the revamp. Here's an example of the voting thread from one of my sites:

Once again, I don't mean to offend or insult anybody...I just thought it might be better with more description, more selection and tighter rules. I'm not trying to tell you how to run this site or anything...I just kinda thought since I'd had sucess with my 3 sites I'd pass on some help. Sorry if I hurt anyone...it was just my suggestion.

Yes, I agree. Though sometimes(like yesterday) I loose my muse, (or it goes on 'vacation') I still manage around 5 or 6 sentences.
'walks in2 the terra claims it' lacks correct punctuation detail an is a 'chat-speak fragment', as i call it, meaning it is not a sentence, because of the lack of punctuation and detail, and it uses 'chat-speak'
First off, I suggest that everyone posts with the correct 'time'. In this instance; past tense.
If needed, I can post a 'vocabulary' section, where people can go to find words to add detail to their posts. Like mitts for paws and occuli for eyes. I know, if you have just started RPing, it can be difficult. But if you try your hardest, I guarantee you will improve! I have come a long way since I began.
Like shadow, I am not trying to offend anyone, far from it. I am here to help, and I want to help!
I have to admit, as an admin for another site, I love this picture!
