Now I had an idea for a forum, A mini world. now I don't plan on doing this as it would take up so much time, and it would be something I had to work on constantly. (even though I would)

Imaging a forum, not just any forum, A forum that is the world, have pple be themselfs and have stores, resturants, cars, ETC, just like the real world. Mods would be police, G-mods would be SWAT, Admins would be Sheriffs, and Administrator(s) would be the mayor, or Police Cheif, and for the army, fbi and such, i ddin't think that far ahead.

I do think this is a good idea, because I bet this would turn out to be a very active forum, but as I said, this would take way to much work unless you had your frineds as admins and had them help make it.

So...basically, a "real life" RPG?

Exactly.

That is a very interesting idea indeed. I would participate in it.

Yep, i'll do it, i'm up for the challenge,

Edit:Does anyone have suggestions for the name of this idea, one that could be a title of the foum as well?

Global unity?

Not bad at all.

I'm on the sign-up page now .

I will need help making this as it'll be a big project, if anyone is interested, pm me.

I'll figure something out as the site progresses.

but I am dead serious about this.

Yep, but like I said, i'll figure it out as it approaches.

I'll Talk to Ross and see if the server could withinstand thqat kind of forum.

I'm still tryign to figure out exactly about how the boards will be for the RP.

theres more than 1. (i think)

but I wanna be sure that kind of forum won't put to much strain on the server. (with making all thoes categorys/boards)

Hard? Yes. Impossible? No

Is Global Unity a winning name?

I have it made, now the hard part.

Getting the RP area.

^ Good luck with it mate

Thanks Dynamic.

Right now i'm still waiting on my dang email validation.

Stupid thing takes forever for any provider.

I know, I made it so emails must be validated.

Who thinks it would be a good idea to make moderators Police, and G-mods SWAT?

So instead of the name moderator, there would be police?

Personally I find this idea a bit pointless, but I'm not much into RPing.

Role playing ?, i thought it was a discussion forum

On the first page of the thread DLG said it was a "Real-life RPG". RPG or discussion forum, I still don't like the idea much. If you want "real life", go outside, hang out with friends, etc. Actual real life.

and thats why it's pointless to you

Marc and I could just be sticks in the mud, but... really? A Real Life RPG?

Why?

Isn't that thing outside your door so much more real?

~Artemis

I have to agree with Marc and Arty here, i thought people RPed to escape from real life for a bit

Meh, if it works for you i guess!

Why don't you call it Second Life?

Ah, maybe, idk.

I have the forum built, and i got the off topic set up. (along wiht support) but can't exactly think of a way to start the rp area.
