Obviously, this site has long since died, which is probably because all of the admins kind of disappeared. Everything sort of fell apart right after we made it and we didn't even really get a chance to really explore the possibilities of anything actually happening, plot wise. It was really fun while it lasted though and I seriously miss the place a lot D:
I would be more than willing to bring the place back to life, if anybody else was interested in rejoining. If I were to bring the place back, i'd probably end up moving to a different site, just so we can start anew and my particular account isn't the main admin account that made this one....
Let me know what you guys think!

;3;
You know I'm here... I just dunno what even happened. Everybody drifted apart for no reason.
What do you think we could do to bring it back? Apart from going through every single person and emailing them all >.>

I'm literally thinking about just remaking the entire place and just advertising it like crazy lol Maybe send out a mass email about the new site and if they come, great, if not, at least there will be two of us hahaha

XD Yeah, maybe would be for the best... I know you and I can be active, but do you think we should try and pull in the other Admins? I know they're up to other stuff... Might be for the best if us no-lifers set it up and run it... btw, figure out your skype cause I really need a good way to contact you gurl, I miss ya.

We can try to, but idk if they'll actually come back. I literally haven't seen Briar since like... March of last year and Ravi got a job and idk where she went lol I think we could set everything up, send out the mass email to everybody and invite them to the new site and see what happens from there. I'm still trying to figure out what my damn skype password is :/ I had it set to automatically sign in like.... 2 years ago and updated my computer, which reset my settings D: < I might just have to reinstall skype and set up a new account, cause this is some bull.

Mhm. Me neither with Briar, and me and Ravi talk from time to time but she's a part of some other forum now that I couldn't get into. Seems pretty distracted by it.
It might be for the best though... and even if they do want to join again and be admins or mods again, we can always add them. We'd just have it so one of us could log into the main admin account, you know?
Do you think we should start from scratch, totally new look, totally new name, or basically just re-invent the place?
Also do you think it'd be a good idea to copy our personal character info and threads so that any previous members who want to join in would feel free to do so?

That's alright, if Ravi wants to come back, she can, if not, that's fine too. As long as one of us has control of the main admin account, that's all that really matters.
I think that re-inventing the place might be a good idea, just because a lot of what we made here were ideas from all four of us and I don't want there to be any issues in the future. Plus it'll give us more creative liberties too. If you'd rather just redo this site, that'd be fine too. I'm up for anything, really.
That'd probably be a good idea. Maybe we can just sort of put this one on maintenance mode and reopen it when people need to get things, if at all.

Mm, those all sound viable really... I have to admit I was never really a fan of the colors here, but that's more a petty complaint than anything.
So if we do want to completely re-vamp, come up with something new, we should probably think of if we want to take it in a specific direction... what we want to offer. I love our ideas but we're gonna have to stand out big time.
Maybe even put together a DA page for the forum, since it seems a lot of roleplayers flock there.

I'm not too worried about getting a ton of people to join our new site, i've always been a fan of smaller ones. It's easier to manage all of the plots, characters and whatnot. But that's just my opinion. Advertising on deviantart, tumblr, caution 2.0, and the other big ones will probably be enough to catch the attention of a couple of people.
Do we want to keep the plot the same or change it? I think that a really good plot will really bring people in. Idk if you're interested in a past plot, but i've been toying with ideas from the time of Ysgramor, the snow elves, and the dwemer. That might limit the possibilities of characters of other races being in Skyrim, but i'm sure there would be some in the southern part, around the Falkreath/Cyrodiil border.
Of course we could stick with the original Skyrim plot to keep things easy. I'm up for anything really c:

Hmm.... Well, my only problem with running a history plot is that, with ESO coming out, chances are all our ideas are going to get blasted out of the water XD And that's fine of course, it's just a pain in the neck when we start wanting our history to be canon, but at the same time want to include cool new lore.
You know I always want to involve Akavir in things because I think they get shafted, but I'm not sure. Perhaps it would be best to have the rp join the lore just after the main storyline, and come up with one of our own? Dragons still a problem, dragonborn cropping up all over so more people can play them, Dark Brotherhood barely scrabbling it'self out of the dust and a war about to start on our borders? Could make for interesting stuff, if we just let the members come up with the ideas and then run with them~

That's very true lol I wish ESO would come out now so we don't have to worry about fucking up the history xD Maybe we could have a section of the site where past events can be RPed out?
That would probably be the best idea, to just sort of go with the Skyrim plot, but set it a little bit after the main story line of the game. Would we have a main dragonborn that got rid of Alduin/Would we set up any of our own "lore"?

Oh of course, that's always the most fun. Besiiiides what's the fun in not having more cracky rp with the snow elves and such? Even though I think your plot with them should absolutely be canon >.>
Hmm. Maybe that dragonborn could be dead, sacrificed himself in the battle with alduin? Or maybe multiple people claim to be him?
XD Maybe he could be fat and rich off of his fame.

Well, with the Dawnguard DLC, the snow elf plot I came up with is entirely possible. Maybe not in Blackreach, but some other falmer filled abandoned ruin somewhere. They can start making a very slow comeback.
lol that could certainly be xD

Well, they don't have to have STARTED in Blackreach. We can always say they were hiding someplace and then came back, filled out Blackreach and closed off the entrances to basically make it a fortress. Sup to you what you want to do with it though, I just like the idea of Blackreach being populated, maybe even becoming a city.
So then, how should we do this? Who should make the forum?

I do too, Blackreach seems like it was once an amazing Dwemer city and I really like the thought of it being the main hub for the remaining Snow Elves/Falmer.
I can, if you'd like me to, or you can. Do you want to stick with proboards or use invisionfree or jcink? My vote is for jcink, i've seen a lot of really neat looking jcink sites popping up late lol
