'kay so basically... alot of people for ages have been all like "Okay.. let's get Wigmore started again.. like... now." and then, surprise surprise, NOTHING HAPPENS.
So.. I think that to do this we are gonna have to actually DO IT. Rather than changing apps and changing the skin and stuff like that, why don't we worry about actually getting into roleplaying with each other again? We had this awesome thing going on with the Ryds but nothing has happened with them. So, why don't we use the awesome characters, plots and everyone's amazing minds to get this thing on the road!
WHAT WE SHOULD (MAYBE) DO, BRO.
1. CLEAR THAT SHIT UP Alot of people were here but haven't showed their faces in a very very long time. So.. rather than just letting their characters sit there and rot away, why don't we dispose of their bodies, free up the face claim abit and let there be more room for new characters and also, make some room to freakin' BREATHE. Also, I think that we should get rid of the major claim, clique claim, extra activities claim, screen name claim and cell phone claim. There isn't really any need for these and they just make signing up look confusing >.<.
Another section of 'clear that shit up' is threads. Now, there has been crap loads of drama throughout the year(?) of roleplaying that everyone has done and really, the archive thread is there for a reason, no? So.. why not use it and dump all the threads that haven't been updated in the last.. 4 months in there. They haven't been posted in for a while so they certainly aren't going to be posted in now. EDIT: after looking around the site there is actually alot of stuff that could be deleted which would make the site alot more approachable 'n' all. I just can't be arsed to type out all the stuff that can be deleted.
2. MAKE THE SITE SEXY After step 1 has been completed and people are starting to make some sexual plot babies we can move on to step 2. MAKING THINGS LOOK SEXY. So.. this would mean maybe a new skin? Having the rules, face claim and other official stuff actually looking like each other and making sure everyone has sexy graphics which are all the right size.
3. ADVERTISE AND INVITE MORE PEOPLE IN DA CRIB So.. after steps 1 and 2 this place should be looking pretty swanky. Yes. So that means more people will be welcome here. Not that we don't have enough people, just more people mean more characters which mean MORE DRAMA! XD
'kay so you don't have to do this. Sorry if I seem a little pushy it's just.. if we wanna do it then we will have to actually do it ya know? If you disagree with anything feel free to comment and disagree, bro.
We are a family and we should all help each other to get this place running again. ^^
also, shipping pages are good for plotting and stuff so we should post some of them.
Also. If a certain person whose name begins with D and ends in rake was staff it would be pretty awesome. That person is on holiday for a week now so would be able to get some stuff done ;) -hint hint- But, I really don't mind :P

I agree with a lot of what you're saying Drake, and we staffers are working on it right now. As for your help, I can offer you a temp mod job until updates and the fixing of the site is done. If you all have any questions, please PM me.

Sorry guys, I can't post this week at all. So when you say 'no exceptions for anybody' I guess you will have to delete my characters then....
I have exams and will not be able to help with any of this. My exams determine whether I get into university or not so they're kind of important.

Sorry about that, Liv. Ill make sure all admin/mods are saved from having to post, especially in your situation. The activity check wont be up for a wile, anyway, so either way, you are safe.

My exams finish on the 15th, so I wont be on for a while. Then I'm going away on school for the 21st until the 30th, to celebrate me finishing high school. Just a warning.

I didn't mean it that way anyways... Of coarse Liza's characters shouldn't get deleted. I mean't the characters which creator's haven't even popped in to say hi for the last year. -_-'
and nah, don't worry 'bout the staff place, i really don't mind.
I just don't see how replacing the app, making a halloween video and alot of other stuff is gonna help wigmore come back to life but that's cool.. go crazy. ^-^

Things like that draw attention to the site, so I thought that having those little festive/appealing things would draw attention to Wigmore ashaving a friendly atmosphere. I posted a request for a new skin a couple of days ago on Caution, and I planned on getting things cleared out, although I hadn't mentioned it to anyone because I planned to make it a solo project and leave the rping and advertising to the members .

I'll be the claim bitch. The claims have always kinda been mah babies... and I'll get rid of all of them except the face and I'll add a who's-who claim thread thing.

Hotay I will get on that as soon as I can.
But I would just like for you to know that it may not be for awhile. I've been sick and out of school for the past week so I have some major catch up work to do for this week.. then the following week is production week for the play. So I'll likely be completely absent for the next fourteen days or so except for a few "Hello's" and "I hate my life's" and "This is hell's"
Hopefully some time in the next two weeks I will weasel some time in to take care of the claims. If not I promise to take care of it as soon as my life kind of finds some semblance of normal ^^

Is otay Sonnabear. We all understand how hectic life can make things. And, as I'm sure you already know, we'll be here to curse with you at how stupid life can be.

I just had a thought amidst all of my homework ._________. is it okay that Zarah not host the Halloween party? Maybe have it at someone else’s place or even at the school? Because… I had the brilliant ider to instead have a winter formal at Zarah’s house… Like a Christmas party kinda thing… Si?

Sounds perfectly fine to me! I'm sure we can find a reliable host, and have Zarah host the winter formal. It's funny that Wigmore depends on wealthy parents for hosting parties. But yeah! I'll be sure to keep her address up there & then add the fall host home to it.
