just a suggestion..
 
Should there be like a sub forum in oddworld rpg for non "oddworld" rpg's?

I suppose if we have a non Oddworld fan art section it would only be right to have a non Oddworld RPG section.

Alpha 02-07-2005 12:34 PM

yeah that's what I mean't I mean rpg-ing is limited when it come's to oddworld but if you took something like fable..

Oddish 02-07-2005 12:39 PM

I completely agree with you Alpha, a non-oddworld RPG would be sutable. but this has already been said in RPG suggestions thread, but no one is doing anything about it.

thank's oddish it is time for history to be made like for example apparently everyone is born equal yet kid's don't have as many right's , i know that sound's stupid but the point is unlike the campaign for equal right's among all people is failing if this one begin's let's hope it doesn't fail too.

lately, i've thought that it could be fun with a non-oddwolrd RP-forum. I think it should be done, even if it will become more popular than oddworld-RPG forums.

Alpha 02-08-2005 10:52 AM

I thought so too, mod's please take note!.

Edit:Admin's please take note!

Wil 02-08-2005 12:02 PM

Mods can do nothing but violate your posts. It's up to the administrator and the super-mod to fiddle about with whole forums.

Rich 02-09-2005 12:58 PM

I say no. The RPG is not active enough to waste time and money making a subforum. If the RPG was super active, like in the old days, we could have 3.

Main RPG
Non-main RPG
Non-oddworld RPG

Unfortunately, the RPG will never be as active as it once was, NEVER.

Alpha 02-09-2005 12:59 PM

would'nt it be more active if there were more type's of rpg?

Rich 02-09-2005 01:04 PM

No. People can post non-oddworld RPG's in the NOAAL forum. There is no main RPG and there are only five active RPGers.

Cyber-Slig 02-09-2005 01:27 PM

Damn it's all my fault RPG is dead! :(. Anyway I love the RPGs. My comp was so slow once that the RPGs took forever to load so I left them. And whats the point in a sub-forum? We could easily rename it to ''RPG Section'' and voila! Any RPG can be made.

Facsimile 02-09-2005 11:14 PM

I say no.
Because RPG is lame.

No one said my reason had to be good!

Alpha 02-10-2005 01:03 PM

Now we have 2 option's the RPG renaming or the subforum. But it's really not up to me or any of us.

Alcar 02-11-2005 02:23 AM

I've always been against adding more forums, or other things which aren't particularly necessary. At the moment, RPG is crawling along, and just about dead. The addition of a new forum would do nothing but make it look pretty. And yes, we have had this discussion before :p

Alcar...

Alpha 02-11-2005 08:32 AM

Blast the smiley's but still renaming the forum would be an option, yeah?

Oddish 02-11-2005 08:46 AM

Doing an non-oddworld RPG will gives more freedom about doing what we want to role play. We have more choices and diffrent storys. Oddworld is only one series, and think of the possibilitys if we could choose any series or RPG we want to play,we would have more interesing RPG's that people would want to play.(halo,fanalyfantasy,starwars,ect)

It would realy cool if the OWF team have enought moolah to produce a real online oddworld RPG game, or an online game. :talk:

Alpha 02-11-2005 08:59 AM

Exactly , if anyone ever heard of true fantasy online they would have been pissed to hear it was cancelled , now imagine if we had an online MMORPG

Rich 02-11-2005 10:26 AM

If you's wanna play starwars, go to the Non-Oddworld Art and Literature forum. I'd certainly play a forum based Starwars RPG! :p

Oddish 02-11-2005 10:43 AM

Is that allowed?

Rich 02-11-2005 10:52 AM

Yeah. Read the rules in the RPG section.

Yes. Non-Oddworld RPG's go into Non-Oddworld Art & Literature. It's just an unspoken rule. Which is why we don't see fit to add a seperate forum.

Alcar...

Rich 02-12-2005 08:20 AM

So get making those Starwars RPG's and Lord of the Rings RPG's you suckers! :p

Alpha 02-14-2005 04:53 AM

Yeah but I still think it would be better having it's own seperate forum I mean think about you're after posting an RPG in the non oddworld....etc. It's somewhere among all these non RPG topic's pain in the ass ain't?.

Alcar 02-14-2005 09:56 PM

One of the reasons we changed the initial name of Non-Oddworld Art & Literature was because it was to encompass all non-Oddworld works. Being the Oddworld Forums, we put most of our effort into making it suited towards Oddworld fans. The fact that a non-Oddworld Art & Literature forum exists is in itself a compromise for those talented people who don't want to create Oddworld related stuff.

Basically, it'd be creating a useless forum, filled with very little - not to mention, not Oddworld related.

Not really. We could agree to have some sort of mark in the title that shows its an RPG. Or all RPG threads could be made sticky. It wouldn't be a problem.

T-nex 02-15-2005 01:16 PM

or... we could just write RPG in the titles...

Alpha 02-17-2005 01:16 PM

So i guess that's it ah well fun while it lasted ;) if anyone want's to try to change Alcar's mind post now!

T-nex 02-17-2005 01:27 PM

I don't want to, though i think it would be good if he changed his mind.

Anyways, if you really want a seperate non-oddworld-forum, go to The Community. You can RPG with everything there: www.tc-community.org

lol... I guess that was some shameless advertising :p

Alpha 02-18-2005 12:16 AM

LOL yeah it was I'll save the link ,go there later
