So umm Emppy please dont tell me what I think your telling me. It can't be Emppy kun right it cant be

Too difficult for me to say. I have way too much going on right now. Once my friend finds another place to live and the latest nonsense with the army is taken care of, and my computer isn't constantly freezing, then maybe.

But it also depends on GX. My plans are all tied with hers, and she's also the one who's driving the main plot.

That does not resolve Austur's problems. Austur's problems are Smexy is gone, Lurk has dropped out, and the only two remaining plot drivers-Me and GX- are busy dealing with constant crap heaped on us daily that makes it extremely difficult to write. Even if we did a reboot, that would not change. She and I would still be dealing with the same problems. And any change of that magnitude would have to be approved by GX, because this is her RP. I don't think you remember that.

I am against it because a reboot would render all of my plans and years worth of everything meaningless. I still intend to continue this RP, once I'm not being crushed by life. You have no idea the amount of crap I have to do. That said, I am open to being flexible, so I will wait to see what everyone else and GX think.

You're misunderstanding what I said and turning it into something else, and frankly, I am way, way too stressed to deal with this. So I'll say this and then just ignore this topic until you've cooled off. This is not about Elia or Vincent. GX is the last one who has direct control over the main story of the RP. That is why the main story is stuck. That is why you all are stuck. A reboot will not change this. At the very least, GX will still have to flesh out the backstory and history of the RP and then hand over control of the plot to someone else. She will still have to deal with the same problems to do this. It is not as simple as saying "K gaiz let's do a reboot sound good k cool cyu then".

If getting this RP back off the ground was so simple, we wouldn't be in this situation to begin with.

I kinda of want to get a general idea of what we can do.

Should we scrap the RP completely and build it from scratch?

I mean we don't have to scrap our characters at all I want to keep Baron and the rest maybe we can work them into as important PCs important figures.

I want to do something to where we keep what's already established but rework it to that its kinda of like a new beginning. Something to where the vets dont lose what we worked on but for any new comers they can jump right in and be part of the story.

In a way we can keep our characters but for a lack of a better term moved on and are now doing there thing. Let a new evil or the original big bad remerges to threaten the peace established from before.


Most of us have speciliazed characters that can age 100s of year with enough time for changes to happen around them but be alive. For someone like Irving maybe something like his crazed side keeps him from aging like a normal human. So if it takes place in the future he's around.

Talia maybe she's gifted somehow if longer life. Maybe Baron or his dad can do something so that she ages slower so that she can serve as his personal bodyguard, assistant, personal mercenary. So say of she decideds to go off on her own. She is allowed but if Baron or someone from the Cathedral needs some type of special business she on call.

I don't think we need to completely destroy everything. I don't say we get rid of our own characters.

Yet we need to somehow to reset everything. We need to work out new plans and new storylines because with someone dropping out any plans that might have been are completely out the window. So yeah same world, same setting, same characters, but I don't know how to put it a brand new time, new promblems, new situations.

It will be hard but at least we have the people, places, and things.

Like I said we all should say what we want to happen to Arstur. We should have idea on what we can do to make Arustur to what it once was.
