It's just a small idea, but would there ever be the possibility of a section for character arcs? What I mean by that is, if a character developed a lot through a bunch of RP's, what if there was a section on the forum where we could maybe archive the RP's of characters? So, for example, if someone clicked on the thread for a character, it might have a list of links to the RP's the character was involved in, arranged in chronological order according to the Metro universe's timeline, so that we could see the development of the character through each thread. But again, it's only an idea. I just figured it could be a nice way to keep track of characters and stuff. Thoughts?

This is an awesome idea! I say Joe should get on it asap.
It'll take a while to dig around tho for the threads Mikhail has been in.

Yeah, what worries me is that getting all the threads for older characters might be a hassle. To be fair, though, it might not have to be mandatory, just one of those things people do if they want to.

Probably easier for individuals to log the adventures they've had.

Well it's be pretty stupid people going around logging each others adventures right?

Well it's not like we'd have to archive RP's for other people's characters, just our own, and only if we wanted to.

I know, I was part of a huge RPing site where it was compulsory to catalogue all of your participated threads.

I guess all that stuff is up to Joe.

Reminds me of the The Essential Guide to the ZSG RPG that we had on the old stalker forum... but I'm not sure if Karc or Joe want to share that with everyone I'm one the fence about it myself.

That was designed for all those new people that never joined the site, to make people aware of the universe we'd created, in essence we isolated ourselves in a S.T.A.L.K.E.R. parody, since I can't remember many characters having any sort of weakness. Also bending the term "Anything is possible in the zone."
But... That's not what Deotherguy is suggesting.
I think (93.5% sure) what he purposes is you simply add a list of all threads your character(s) have been involved in and put it in their character profile. It's not like there's too many to look through, we're a small, close knit community.

Karc makes a good point. and plus, what about those of us that started Multiple roleplays at one point? It may get a bit confusing and... er... jumble-y.

As I recall if something major happen in the Rp we linked that thread to the character. Putting stuff in order is left up to the person posting. I mean I plan on having something that I want to happen in one RP show up at the end of another right now.

Uhh... Well anyway. If you want to list and link your characters to their previous adventures go ahead.
