Alright, since Fire Eyes is coming back from an inactive state, I'm going to be doing some revamping. It's pretty messy and all over the place here, so I'm going to tidy it up a bit.
I hope you, the members, appreciate these changes and aren't angry. They won't be sprung on the site, but will be happening gradually. Feel free to comment below with your thoughts and or suggestions.
Thank you,
Poozie
There is going to be a taken names thread, so when new characters are made, their name has to be approved and added to a list. I'll be going through all the active member's characters over the next few weeks and add their names. Current double ups are all right, but new characters cannot have double ups.
We're also going to start keeping track of mares and stallions of each alliance because I noticed there are tons of Neutrals being made. I'd like a bit of a variety here, so there will be some restrictions on character creation soon. Restrictions are temporary, so don't worry if you're afraid you can't make that Neutral mare for a while.
Inactive member's characters will be moved to the Character Archive board in the Archives. Unfinished characters are in the storage board in the Creation board, still.
The Wolf Territory section of the board is being deleted because it's gone inactive and Dingo has lost interest. Inactive member's wolf profiles will be moved into the archives and will not be deleted, active member's wolves will be moved to side characters. Wolves are still allowed to be created as side characters.
Herd territories will start to slowly be deleted in order to create more herds of horses. Empty lands will go first, obviously, and hopefully there will only be a few herd lands in each alliance soon. Community boards will also start going, but slowly as well. I want Fire Eyes to be about families, friends, stories, not just screwing and having a two-horse herd.
Finally, foals will be created by staff members. I want foals to be plausible; their colors will be more realistic depending on their parents and there will be less twins. A board and form will be created and members will just have to put the dam and sire's information and a staff member will reply with the foal's stats.
I hope you, the members, appreciate these changes and aren't angry. They won't be sprung on the site, but will be happening gradually. Feel free to comment below with your thoughts and or suggestions.
Thank you,
