| I have a suggestion for the roleplay.
Many serious roleplaying sites utilize a posting order. It means exactly what it sounds like: users must post in the same order throuought the roleplay.
For example, person A starts the topic. Person B is the next person to post. Who posts next? Person A. Then person B would post.
If another person, person C, joins the fun after person A's post, then the order would become Person A, Person C, Person B. Makes sense, right? Wherever you start posting become your place in the order.
Posting orders are great for people who cannot come online more than once a day. It ensures that no one falls behind in the roleplay and is left out. In the past, I have seen WQ packs lose great members when they feel they couldn't keep pace with the rest of the group.
It could be a totally optional thing, or mandatory. Vote in the poll! | |

| I'm not quite sure about this idea. It kind of already happens in the RP, although I wouldn't want it to be mandatory. Personally, I believe that leaving the RP the way it is for now is best. | |

| To be honest, I think our role-play system is fine the way it is. If you were going in a posting order, for example, and one of the users fell inactive without notice what would you do? You'd be stuck there for a couple of days waiting; so I agree with Jewelz that leaving it how it is would currently be the wisest option. | |

!). I suppose in the scenario of the average WQ pack, that is a real issue. I suppose what you would do is just remove that person from the order. The issue is less signifigant when there is liquid time and multiple topics availible to roleplay in. All of my suggestions were related ^^;!
