Firstly, all of you will have noticed that there were no updates last week, nor was there a Shinigami Times. My deepest apologies! The truth is, I was a bit busy with work and studying, and so I couldn't find any energy for a weekly update. Also, Shinigami Times ceased to be interesting to me, so I couldn't muster inspiration for any articles. As a result, I'm having someone else make Shinigami Times. I'm instructing him very basically in what to do.
Now, onto a more pressing matter. We're doing well, very well. We now have a variety of members, and a variety of people signing up and making characters still. But, our growth is slowing. This will not do. I'd like all of you to try and get us more members. Now, you may ask, what's in it for you? Well, I have an announcement up called "Attention All Members!" You may want to check it out to see what's up for you. Also, this place is FUN! I've made a good system, and I honestly think that it could take us far! Do you really want this to die? If we have LOTS of members, and are getting a different 20 daily, just think about how fun things will get, how many threads there will be, how many activities you can be in! Just a thought. I'm also giving away an admin position to anyone that can get us enough active members, so that's something to think about.
I've been getting some word from people that this place is an organizational mess. I've done my best to organize it so far, but I've decided that now is the time to make us more prestiged and advanced while we're ahead of the curve. When some of our other members get back, I'll have them do some favors for me. But in the meantime, please expect some HEAVY maintenance on this site to be going on. I will be changing us up into a far more professional website than ever before! As a result, some boards will become LOCKED for several days at a time, and some threads may be erased or halted altogether. Please be patient, everything I will do is for the benefit of the forum. Don't worry, I won't change the looks too significantly if I can help it. If I manage to find a way to make it even more professional, expect me to do so, and that is when the looks will really change and differ.
The templates broke. I've got a running announcement about that. So yeah, anyway, the templates are broken and that just isn't doing us any good. NFRP is looking into the problem of broken auto templates, and in the mean time I've got some pretty cool C&P templates up for usage. Now, this doesn't mean that you can just edit the template to your liking. You have to follow it still. If we can, we'll get the auto templates up and running again. But until the problem is discovered, that just won't be happening.
I had a computer program to determine the odds of victory for wager battle people. Unfortunately for me, IT BROKE! That's why the Grimmjow vs Byakuya thing hasn't been updated. I don't know who would win!!! Also, I've halted the lottery for a bit. Can't have it running too often. Money isn't supposed to be a surplus.
I'm considering deleting the Bount Class entirely, simply because of how weak they are, and just how...unappealing they are. They're filler characters not to mention. So, that's all for the weekly updates. There's a poll above it.
See you next week.
