Board Clean up; Tats is attempting to do admin stuff again

OK people, I think I'm overdue with the project of cleaning the board. Basically removing seemingly dead threads, which includes inactive characters, socials, and missions. I'm thinking maybe of starting in a week or two so people preemptively save their characters and threads if it's not too obvious their characters and threads are actually active. Unfortunately, Tats isn't super amazing at organization so I don't have a list of people who should be worried and need to contact me. I'm thinking of clearing anything that hasn't been posted in for about 2 months or characters that haven't seen activity for the past 2 months.

There are a few things I would like to ask the community though. Things like

  • Should accepted characters that have gone inactive, automatically go into someone's PC, or only if requested?
  • Should I do more than clear out dead threads? for example,

    • creating sub-forums for completed socials in certain boards rather than let them sit there in the forum, so it is easier(?) to find active ones
    • attempting a crazy project to find all the similarities and ratios/percentages of all the active characters

  • Should I increase or maybe decrease the time I have allotted (2 months) to deem something inactive?
  • Any other suggestions?


Anyway created this thread so people can easily reply, whether to tell me to save a character/thread, give a suggestion, give an opinion, give a comment, etc.

I would say that Someone's PC should be a by request service, but maybe PM the character's owner first to let them know their character is about to be sent to obsolete. I like the idea of a completed social board, and it might also be worthwhile to put an obsolete characters subboard back up too.

I'm just going to convey a message from Roji to put Roji in Someone's PC.

Personally speaking, I think that rather than deleting threads, we should send them to another forum, labeled something like "Graveyard", etc. We would keep these posts there indefinitely so anyone still wanting to continue a thread or character would simply have to request its "resurrection", so to speak.

oh we were never going to delete things, we either throw them into obsolete or some other random place, the PC is there to just tell us that the person is still active and may be interested in playing the character again later, while obsolete is tats hoping that people will return and/or will pick up the character they lost all interest in
