    Default Announcement: RPG Closures

    It is again the time for some decisive action on some games. The following games have been decided by the Shed to have failed, by reaching complete inactivity:

    - The War of Dwarves and Goblins
    - The Blue and Gray
    - God Save The King

    A special note, however. I am aware that GSTK hold much sentimental value for many. However, it is time that reality is acknowledged and GSTK given a proper end, than a pitiful continuation. I am also aware that there might arguments to give it one more chance. But it is also time to acknowledge that GSTK has been give much slack than any game here. Not to say that this would also be unfair to other game which did not get such an exception.

    It was agreed that GSTK would be given one more chance at thriving, yet it failed to do so. Which gives us more right to close it.
    As for the other two roleplays, no need for discussion upon them. They can be archived and left open for new rps.

    I have nothing to say personally, so just go ahead.

    Fair enough. Though it should be noted GSTK was successful until the disappearance of our only mod. Well, only mod who was also a player. None of the others were/are.

    It is sad that we must do this to GSTK, but I believe that it has had a good life of 5 years.

    Moral of the story, pay attention what you are doing if the time is after midnight.

    No one is denying that mate. GSTK will always have our respect and admiration of being a legendary RPG in the forums.

    GSTK brought me to this site, and I swear to God I will not see it be banned from the RPG forum.

    MD, the rp is dead though. All the mods are gone, only a few people rp. Just let it go for now. Its only being set aside to make way for other rps.

    It's not being banned, just buried with what very little dignity it has left.

    Several fingers could pointed. Old guard for not stepping up. Mods not being active. Players not being players. It's like a blame party where everyone gets a piece of crappy, blame cake.

    Blaming would mostly accomplish nothing, rather even worse the situation. The last thing this section needs is strife among the dedicated patrons of RPGs and their disappearance might mean this notice about the section in general.

    Meanwhile, it wouldn't hurt to have more fresh members coming here. As I have always stood by good personal PR, I think we all can do our bit by getting some of our friends in TWC here.

    I blame the Swedes.
