I would like to once again address the possibility of a site wide plot, that affects either the Human/Digital World (or both), and unfolds over a series of time. This has been brought up many times in the past. However, looking around, there is only a niche group of posters who have been regularly active in the past couple of months. So as much as I would love to be a part of a grand story arch, I must ask the question: Is there a demand for it any more?
I really like the proposed ideas for site wide plots in the past, such as the Dark Masters, or the Demon Lords coming into play. I would be more than happy to see something of this magnitude happen around here. Do other people feel the same way? This has been brought up time after time, and I believe that some people have left because there is not a main story with relevance.
Some of you are aware of my Invasion angle. This has been my attempt to unify people around the same story. To bring people together and create something grand that is more than just the sum of its parts. It started off well, but now with the absence of some while more join in the fray, it's become confusing. I will continue to strive towards making this thread a success, but what good is setting a bar when people are not jumping?
Maybe this is a sign of why a main plot would not work. Too many people coming and going, and everything gets mixed up in the shuffle. I still support the idea of a thread that is significant. The closest thing we have to that is missions, and it seems they always wind up ending before they really even begin. Is this just sour grapes? Am I expecting things that are just not in the cards for the foreseeable future?
As an active member who loves posting, and wants to see this site thrive, I suggest you make your opinion known. If you want a main plot, or think that it would not be successful, let me know here. Of course people will leave over time, and you can't pinpoint who's just going to disappear. The ones that are left by now look like they enjoy what they are doing. Let's address our concerns and requests. Now that I think about it, I hope I'm posting this in the right section. Here's to everyone continuing to have a great summer!
