Hey Clash!
Guess what? We've gone past the 1,000 posts mark! It's amazing, we've only been open for a little over a month now and we managed 1,000 posts! Most of which I am confident are in our Roleplaying Universe. That's something to be proud and and everyone should pat themselves on the backs for being so enthusiastic about writing! I'm glad to see that you guys are enjoying the site and are making the best out of it all. First and foremost, that is the most important thing to do! As always if you have any concerns of suggestions for the site feel free to express them! We're always looking for a way to make Clash of the Finest a better roleplaying board.
Additionally, we have hit the 50 member mark which is another thing to be proud of. I'm glad that people are joining and see are gung-ho about creating multiple characters for more fun!
Another new thing, which is blatantly obvious is our site's skin. I think it looks cool, I don't know how everyone else feels but I hope that it's appeasing on some level to everyone! Now I'm aware that there are some bugs with the skin ie., signatures not showing up and weird coloring and spacing here and there BUT I promise I will sort them all out. The coding is a bit tricky so I'm looking to have another pair of eyes take a gander at it. If you have coding experience PLEASE step forward now so that you can help me! D:
If you find any other problems or something you don't like with the skin feel free to express them to me that way I can fix it as soon as possible!
Our board plots seems to be moving along rather nicely and everyone appears to be involved in some sort of story. That's all great to see and I hope you guys keep up the good work. Remember we are each other's muse and if that fails then it comes down to you. At the end of the day, I'm here to write - not be the boss of a board or treat you all like my underlings (LOL) but I'm here to have fun, express my creativity and write. I hope all of you feel the same way as well.
We've experienced some major growth, but that seems to have died down (sadly), but I hope all of you are out there spreading the word or plugging our advertisements on forums, ANY Forum to help build Clash of the Finest's viewership across the web. I'd love to see us continue to grow and I'm sure you all feel the same way.
In regards to our growth in membership, I am considering implementing monthly activity checks for the site. Just to gauge how many people we have and more importantly what characters are still available. Monthly activity checks will only require you to respond with "I'm alive and these are the characters I have". Nothing too complicated or overbearing, and I usually like to keep the response time open for a week. I understand that everybody can be very busy.
Also, if you do disappear for awhile with out head ups or notice, I usually like to give a week or two to send an email simply asking "Have you forgotten about us". Again, I know people are very busy but I would like to know about availability of characters and persons especially when other members ask about them or if they are integral to plots. So don't be alarmed and think your account is being flagged, it's just a little check in to see if you have a pulse.
Otherwise, I think that's enough for updates for now. We're chugging along quite smoothly and everyone SEEMS to be having fun across the board. I hope to see this continue and as always if you have questions, concerns of suggestions ALWAYS feel free to voice them!
Happy posting!
