Oh I completely agree on the cluttered streets, and have been saying for a while that there needs to be some sort of organisation. And I will write regardless of RPP, as anyone who knows me will bear witness to. lol

But if there is RPP there, on offer. I'm not going to screw over my charrie and their levelling just to put it on a different board for the sake of decluttering Streets.

Now, if these boards gave full RPP - I would not only use them, but I would buy a couple myself. Because as I said, I'd love streets to be less cluttered and things segmented to where they belong. It's just so much, neater and nicer and makes so much more sense imo.

I write the occasional journal entry for fun. Journal is journal and it's half RPP which is fine.

But if my options are to post the same RP in streets or somewhere with half RPP, I'll post it in full RPP. Nothing's stopping me from posting an RP in the asylum in streets, so why would I gyp myself?

Copycat. >.>

Colour me a copycat then also cus I agree 100% with you two ladies. It just isn't logical imo to short change any of my gals' rpp if I have a choice between posting in two places and one gives twice as much rpp? To me, the choice is clear. Just like when I am shopping, I always pick the best value for my money.

So basically, getting a sub-board is going to be pointless because no one is going to use them simply because of rrp, the solution, if these things are ever to be valid would be to raise the rrp in them to full, or lower the streets rrp to half. In an effort to discourage people from spamming those boards in order to reap the rewards.

Something will need to be done, or this entire update is going to be a total waste of time.

I feel this is a little rude to be claiming that people are spamming the Streets board. I frequently (as in multiple times a day) scan that board and read RP's being posted in between class or on travel times. It's extremely rare, as in I've only seen it maybe twice in the last 6-12 months, that someone posted anything that didn't seem to be a purposeful RP.

I know a few of my characters who would love the asylum rp board.

By spamming I was meaning posting all their role plays only in the streets, rather than in a board that is purposely made for the location the role play takes place. Volume, my dear, nothing to do with content. The only reason for it is the rrp points, so, therefore, the only way to combat this is to make the rrp equal.

The Streets board was set at full RRP to keep people posting roleplays in public areas, but all it is doing is trapping almost all the roleplays in there. I get why the solo and journal one is half points, after all you are doing every character's involvement in one story. These new boards are public, and not limited to solo writing, so they should, in theory, be in the same line as "the streets" and taking into consideration that the roleplays in the streets take place in these locations anyway; There is absolutely no reason what so ever that the RRP should be any different between them.

We know Stephanie player. And there have been a number of threads and discussions asking for full RPP on those boards. Half is a step, but not enough of one to make it worthwhile posting RPs on them.

Hopefully, one day, they'll get the full RPP - and then they would be used and bought happily and frequently.
