Player and Moderator Game Discussion Post 1st Anniversary Edition

♞ Game Discussion
 

▼ Info
 
Happy 1st Birthday Destiny Strings!

There are more post coming soon, but in the upcoming year, we'd like your feedback on what we can do and improve, or just plot ideas you might have that we could impliment later.

Moderators are there to help, but we know we have our problems too. That's where you all come in! Sometimes we might have ideas for solutions, sometimes you may come up with ideas on how to solve those problems which allows an even better participation by everyone. You may also have ideas that we have missed. It is also an excellent way to discuss ideas and directions about where the game is going in general.

We want this game to be awesome and to succeed and for that we need your help! YEEEAH!/B>

▼ Important Rules (READ THESE)
 
▶ If you have issues with certain players, HMDS and moderators in general, please use the moderator crit post and leave a comment there instead. Anon is turned on and IP logging is turned off for that post as well. This discussion post is serving more as a general game discussion.

▶ Feel free to suggest things not even in the game at all! We want to make this game experience as enjoyable and as fun as possible, so tell us your ideas so that the game may be fun not only for you, but everyone in the game as well.

▼ Things that we are working on
 
▶ Being more timely with NPC tags, and limiting logs to a smaller amount of players as to make progress faster while having a larger log for other players to also participate in

▶ Allowing for more events that "self-run" such as the memory swap event where players ran most of the event by themselves, allowing us to play a few plot-related clues.

▶ Posting events with more warning and ahead of time so players can plan accordingly

▶ Being more out there with advertising

▶ Fixing pages so that new players are not afraid of the Persona creator or joining the game

▶ Encouraging you, the players, to submit more player-run plots. We can even plant a few game clues or change the city based on what each plot is!

▶ Making a timeline of what has happened so far in the game (this will be done sometime next week).

Somehow giant robots need to happen.

Aside from Desco's.

And not just to freak out Ushiro.

I agree! I have been waiting to find a use for Big Robots battles and since it's a Japanese city, it would seem like the most fitting thing. Maybe something in November or December, so stay tuned!

Over at the Bestiary, the Disgaea entry is tagged d! instead of !d, as well as the Legacy of Kain entry, which is tagged with l! rather than !l.

The OCs need to all have an [oc] tag or all have an [ou] tag. As it is we use both and it's kind of annoying.

I am not sure if this is the right section but whatever.

I liked the big general logs, though I guess they've stopped working as much with rolling acceptances since people are hesitant to tag in late.

Is there some way we can do that more effectively? One every two or three weeks maybe, barring event interruption? It's a good idea but flooding would be bad as would not having any.

This message brought to you by the realization that some of my muses have been here a year and have not yet finished unlocking their persona skills. Also viewers like you.

ANY SECTION IS THE RIGHT SECTION.

Maybe we could have them every 3 weeks, pending any events that happen... 2 weeks seems to fast and people would have have had time to finish their posts in that one before the new one goes up, and if the game picks up speed again, we can space it to 2 weeks and so worth.
