Alright, for those who don't yet know, I officially 'own' the site, Bitoko handed over his root account recently. Don't expect me to drastically change things in my own image, in fact, the first thing I'm doing is taking suggestions.

So, each member (not staff), if you would, post a suggestion on what you'd like changed or added, or removed. No matter how long it is, I'll read and reply. Please, don't post twice, it'll make it tedious for me to review everything.

...

Nope, not gonna act official by saying thank you for reading, gonna end it with this...

Can I nominate Bud for staff? If not, I have nothing else to say, really.

I just lurk in the cbox. Maybe you can make that better somehow.

Get rid of the NO SPAM! WE RETAIN THE RIGHT TO PWNAGE JU EPICZ! disclaimers that occupy a third of the Cbox space. Just go pwn the people who want to be REALLY annoying. If you want to make me happy allow me to say " Naughty Words " Without asterix forcing people to use the initive to discover the true meaning of the word 'context' For example, if I copy from the cbo- Oh wait, I can't, because 5 ****ing lines of dialog are not enough to find things in OR pick up on a conversation from. Ever watched an illegal japan hosted film? Probably not, because text is smeared all over the movie like jam on toast. HORRIFIC. Censorship. No one ****ing likes it.

So far, only Jon's is worth going over. The chatbox technically isn't the site's, it's Mariobasher's, or one of his alts MyZ something or another. He bought it for the site, but he owns it, I'll have to ask him about it before I can do anything about it. Only thing I could do is maybe expand it.

^BTW.. I look like this^
I can't think of anything at the moment, but I'm just kind of burnt out on HS at the moment and don't intend on RPing for awhile, especailly since Cel and possibly Nolan aren't and probably won't reply to my run in Earth Temple. Personally, what I originally suggested is all that I really care about. Anyways, I'm enjoying not being staff for once. For once, I can get on HS and not feel like I have to be on. Sure, I might be willing step back up soon, but for now, I want nothing to do with the staff. It's nice to not to feel like I have to be on here every day or what not. ^_^

(I demoted myself partially because I felt too much pressure on me to make the shops, since no one was helping me at the moment I officially demoted myself and some people were expecting results. For now, I need to at least cool down a bit before I can become more active, let alone become staff again.)

The chatbox needs to be...dealt with like everyones been whining about. I have a PERFECT example as to why Azul ((since Bitoko is gone)) should be in charge of the c-box.

As some of you know, i'm a game developer. Well sprawled across the interwebz is a site that helps you with programming and stuff called RRR for short. RRR has a mIRC channel for those like IM'ing more then posting. The chat channels were STARTED ((which is the equivalent of MB buying the c-box in this situation)) by some MEMBERS ((Like MB)) and were owned by the MEMBERS. Now, granted i'm not assuming this is what MB will do, but eventually on down the road, the member decided he didn't like the way the site was treating him, so what did he do?

He started a literal riot on the site over the channel, claiming he was liberating himself from the staffs grasp. Which, was PERFECTLY OK because HE OWNED it. Now tell me, does HS REALLY NEED that kind of drama considering it's current condition?

In my opinion, if MB really values the c-box AND the staff's authority over it, he'll relinquish his ownership to the head admin. I'm not saying he can't be and admin/mod on the c-box, but in all actuality he's not even here that much anymore.

-----

Second. The staff here. Also just like the staff at RRR. They want to keep everything hush hush and then go crazy with the ban hammer when no one knows whats going on and makes topics about it. ((Even as a joke it's not very professional to ban people, and i'm assuming that since everyone wants a great HS revival, that the only way to do so IS TO ACT PROFESSIONAL)) I'm not saying open the staff forums for all to see, but the Staff has almost gotten to the point where it's... "Your here for OUR entertainment" no joke. I feel as though all the little intricate systems ((which I commend on an attempt to erase them)) make RPing here a sluggish "ok have I done this? and this? and that? and some of this? before I can hit that reply button.

Ok. Now for my third point. HS needs a revival, there's no questioning that. But, with the current laidbackedness HS has it's not going to work. We're sloppy and disorganized, and fool around to much. I'm not saying to become supa crazeh lock down strict, but WE NEED ORGANIZATION AND BETTER BEHAVIOR IF WE ARE GOING TO ATTRACT QUALITY RPERS. Yes, we want QUALITY rpers. Not people who lurk over the c-box 10 hours a day. This is a ROLEPLAYING SITE not Msn, AIM, etc etc...blah blah blah.

And yes, I meant yelling with each and every cap.

Wow, quite a post Nolan.

For MB relinquishing his authority over the chatbox, I'm not going to demand it, it's entirely up to him.

As for the staff, and HS's revival, this is what I'm already working on. I'm not going to lie, it's a long way off still. I'm trying to work on what can help it along.

And I try not to act formal, better to act friendly and warm than professional and cold.

Don't mind me, I'm just here for da lulz
I like what WoL said, and it's kinda like Bud's idea. The reason the RP has declined is part in fact due to the dungeons. If dungeons didn't necessarily have requirements and were graded on quality, not quantity (ucwatididthar?), then maybe people will RP more. The issue is that no matter what happens, as long as you pass the requirements, then you get the stuff, but in my opinion, it should be similar to characters, the better, the more you get from it. But, yeah, too much focus is starting to go to quantity, but good RPing shouldn't have requirements. You should draw the line somewhere, but give a range or something so that we aren't so restricted on how we have to role play.

Once registered, anybody may use the chatbox which is hidden to guests.

Chatbox Staff: Contact Chatbox Admins whenever you feel a punishment is in order, if someone is clearly flaming, use your judgement, but remember to tell a chatbox admin whenever something is going on.

Chatbox Online


Additional Notes

    1. Cbox rules can be found here, please follow them at all times. Thank you.
    2. If anyone sees any odd behavior of a member in the chatbox, report it to the nearest staff member.
    3. Remember that all staff should be moderators, so anyone sharing a staff name without the red or blue in their name is probably an impersonator.
