    Gargant got a reaction from Ron Noesis in implemented/dismissed ideas   
    Here's my idea dst
    How about some sort of access to RPC quests via the RPC list down the side so that we can have access to them even when the RPC is offline. I know i've found it frustrating to have to find an RPC only to find they are offline.
    We have that already.
    But congtraz! You are the first that does what I have asked all the players to do:post your new ideas here so we can add a feedback or a conclusion to it after it is debated on the separated topic. Thank you!

    What I'm curious about is why the concept of 'giving someone a chance' doesn't apply here. Gargant you have done quite a lot for the community I think, and I do not believe you deserve this kind of treatment simply for making a helpful suggestion.

    How about best progressor, i.e. the person who has made the mos progress over the last year, it can be quite an open category as it's open to interpretation. Some people may see progression as combat progression others as RP, it doesn't matter. Either way I think it'd be a good category.

    Okay to respond to all of this.

    1. The newspaper is behind by months because there is nothing worth writing about, if there were then the writers would write.
    2. Akasha, how DARE you suggest that I only log in now and again, I log in every day for at LEAST two or so hours, just because YOU don't see me doesn't mean that I am inactive. You find ME revolting? I find the fact that you decide to attck me so blatantly without getting all the facts straight revolting. It's actions like this that cause people to leave the game.
    3. Awiiya did decline the offer, as did innocence, so maybe i'm not a perfect candidate, but then nobody is. Surely it is better to have some kind of leadership than to be running around like a bunch of headless chickens.
    4. Chewett I think that the paper and the archivists could be interspersed,

    Perhaps myself and rendril could approach the task between us.

    I think between the two of us we could rekindle the fire of the archivists and bring direction back tot he guild.

    For those of you who are mud slinging here you may not have noticed that this post was for other candidates to post their intention to run.

    So far all i've seen is myself, rendril and a whole lot of people arguing and a wave of criticism aimed at me for wanting to change something that we agree needs changing.

    Akasha, the other reason that the paper is not going well is because it is voluntary, people will only write if they want to, or have time to. I cannot force them to write, I write a couple of stories myself, but to expect me to write the whole thing is ludicrous.

    Anyway the point is, how are we going to decide the new master archivist?

    I appear to have lost favour with a lot of people, and so I apologise for wanting to actually DO something rather than sitting around talking about it, saying "We should do this" then waiting for someone else to go and do it.

    Does anyone else want to anounce candidacy?

    Since pample’s departure, the position of master archivist has been open and our guild seems to have lost some purpose, I don’t know if the members of the guild have noticed this but I know some people outside the archivists I’ve talked to have.

    That’s why I would like to put myself forward for the position and I recommend anyone else who wants to do so does the same, then we can put a vote on the forum or see if mur would be interested in making an election for us.

    I propose that whoever is elected to the position should do all they can to revive the archivists and restore their former glory, we are a writers guild, and as such we should write!

    Now on to my personal proposal for the post:

    Why me?

    - The Longest serving archivist, been around since Renavoid was master archivist
    - Good experience of setting up in game initiatives such as the newspaper and the end of year awards
    - Excellent experience of writing, both in game and out having written for the newspaper in game and as a scriptwriter out of game.
    - Good reputation and well known figure within the realm.

    What do I plan to do?

    - Revive faith and interest in the archivists.
    - Get the adventure log going again.
    - Renew interest in the archives website.
    - Reinstate the story nights started by pample.
    - Make sure all archivists have a purpose.
    - And ultimately get people interested in writing and role playing.

    I want to save the archivists from going the same way as the artisans, I don’t know if that’s on the cards or not but it’s better to be safe than sorry, right?

    And once again, another case of akasha not getting all the facts before she publicly attacks my suggestions.

    DEDICATE!

    DEDICATED to calyx.

    She doesn't WIN the award.

    For example, every year someone wins the 'Ivan novello' award, he died years ago but somebody else wins it. It is still dedicated to Ivan novello.

    GET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT.
