Okay, I don't mean to be rude, but can I at least have some sort of feedback?! The most I've gotten in response to my proposal for Parish Pines is one question on weather or not I plan on it to be a small RP! I don't care if the criticizim is harsh or kind, I just want something! Please!

22xander · Post by **22xander** » Thu Nov 10, 2016 5:13 pm

I didn't know you made a proposal...

Welcome to Parish Pines! A nice gated community in Northern California where you can start your new life, or you and your family can settle down and relax. With the lushest Sintoran forest behind it, and the Alamaco lake not that far away, it becomes a nice, silent place where you can rest easy.
That is, of course, when the humans are there.
When they're out for schooling, work, or a break from said tediousness, the pets are left to do as they please, and it's not very often that little to nothing special happens during the humans' absence. And with the pet of the Home Owners Assosiation running the show, it's a mystery what adventures everyone will have!

So...anybody interested?

Sounds cool. Is it gonna be like "The Secret Life of Pets" where the pets have some crazy shenanigans that the owners are not aware of? I don't really have much else to say or ask since I've only been part of one RP here.

Ah, sorry, Anime. I meant to get back to you but got busy.

Anyway, with this new RP, you're welcome to start it with you as GM if it's a small RP with four players or less.You don't need a OOC thread for that sort of RP, just an IC thread.

If you wanted it to be a bigger RP with an OOC thread and character sheets and everything then you'd need mod approval for that. The process for getting that is explained in the third post in this thread. We're not allowing new HPU RPs at the moment because we already have enough of those but RPs set in other worlds are still welcome as are SRPs in the HPU universe.

Also, I'd definitely be interested in playing. ^^

While we're on the subject of SRPs, Steelhaven needs one or two new players. It'd be best if they joinef before we left the Tarn station, so we don't need to come up with some contrived reason as to how they got on while we're travelling through deep space.

AnimeNerd88 · Post by **AnimeNerd88** » Sat Nov 12, 2016 1:55 am

Okay, now to talk a bit more on my idea!

22xander wrote:I didn't know you made a proposal...

Yes, I did. You can see it near the bottom of the last page.

Yeah, that was kinda like what I was thinking. Just craziness happening and when the humans get back home everything is fine.

Okay, so a small RP with for people...I can live with that!

So, that's at least two people interested. Anyone else?

I'm game!

WeirdGamer · Post by **WeirdGamer** » Sat Nov 12, 2016 2:58 pm

So much for posting tomorrow, huh?

...Well that was not fun. Sorry I disappeared, but my life was off the rails for awhile. Sickness, stress, school work, job, and other things just left me too burned out to even check here, let alone write.

But there is good news! Things are back on track. I'm almost ready to post again (although I could use some catch up before I do). I'll be a little slow for next month or so, but I'll post whenever I can.

It's nice to be back.

My connection's about to - potentially - go spotty for a day or so. Broadband contract ends tonight. New one starts tomorrow. I may notice a downtime. Or I may not.

AnimeNerd88 · Post by **AnimeNerd88** » Thu Nov 17, 2016 12:51 am

Okay, now this time, I don't mean to be annoying, but...
PLEASE.
JUST ONE MORE PERSON.
THAT'S ALL I NEED.
PLEASE.
OR I'LL RESORT TO SPELLING HORRIBLY ON PURPOSE.
PLZ.

Hrm.. I could jump into Parish Pines, I have a character ready, so sign me up!

Yay! Thank you! So, HIaoroo said I only needed an IC thread and I didn't need an OOC thread. Does that mean I should just start it now? Or can I start an OOC thread so that it's more organized?

Post by **Hlaoroo** » Sat Nov 19, 2016 10:06 pm

I mean, you can if you really want to, I suppose. These little RPs are intended to be more spontaneous and less structured though.

Well, I mostly want to have an OOC so I can get some descriptions of characters rather than them just being introduced randomly. I'll make the OOC now!

WeirdGamer · Post by **WeirdGamer** » Sun Nov 20, 2016 8:53 pm

Speaking off small RPs, it would appear my attempt to organize one has fallen through. Oh well.

Also on that, how do people feel about Code Name: Kids Next Door?

Legotron123 · Post by **Legotron123** » Mon Nov 21, 2016 6:07 am

An amazing show, and I really hope the proposed sequel gets green-lighted. Why, are you proposing a RP with a similar premise?

Cool! Can't join it myself (since I barely have enough time for the RP I'm GMing, so I can't join another one), but I have a bunch of ideas for villains on my iPad at home. They were going to be used for Chival Res, so they might need to be altered to fit the new setting. Can you give some more info about what it'd be like?

WeirdGamer · Post by **WeirdGamer** » Mon Nov 21, 2016 3:17 pm

Sure! Send a me a PM.

Tue Nov 22, 2016 2:31 am

I'd maybe be interested. I used to play that thing on cartoonnetwork.com where you can make your own KND agent quite a few times.

AnimeNerd88 · Post by **AnimeNerd88** » Tue Nov 22, 2016 2:43 am

I would be very interested in a KND RP.

That's two!

We've got room ofr one more if anyone is interested.

Happy Thanksgiving from America!

Will try to post, but I make no guarantees.

22xander · Post by **22xander** » Tue Nov 22, 2016 9:58 pm

Oh man. I'd love to do do a knd game.

WeirdGamer · Post by **WeirdGamer** » Tue Nov 22, 2016 10:25 pm

That's four! Sorry to anyone else who was interested, I'll let everyone know if someone can't do it.

AnimeNerd88 · Post by **AnimeNerd88** » Tue Nov 22, 2016 11:12 pm

I'm only here to say one more thing: I have gotten the OOC for Parish Pines prepared and ready for people that are interested. I was told by Rook that it might be smart to announce it here, and I agree.

22xander · Post by **22xander** » Wed Nov 23, 2016 10:24 am

Wait, whatever happened to that super hero game?

WeirdGamer · Post by **WeirdGamer** » Wed Nov 23, 2016 11:05 am

Couldn't get it together I'm afraid. maybe some other time.

22xander · Post by **22xander** » Wed Nov 23, 2016 11:17 am

Aww, that one was neat.

WeirdGamer · Post by **WeirdGamer** » Mon Nov 28, 2016 5:02 pm

I've been having some computer problems in the last couple days, but later tonight I'll post.

22xander · Post by **22xander** » Fri Dec 02, 2016 10:35 am

Aaaand were not doing the knd thing either are we?

AnimeNerd88 · Post by **AnimeNerd88** » Wed Dec 07, 2016 4:10 pm

I'm really super extremely sorry that haven't really responded for a while. Sadly, it's going to continue for a little bit longer. I should be able to post when the week is over, though! Again, sorry, but I will be back! I swear!

22xander · Post by **22xander** » Sun Dec 11, 2016 7:16 pm

Would anyone be interested in a hard Potter themed rp?

xhunterko · Post by **xhunterko** » Mon Dec 12, 2016 4:25 pm

Would it be so terrible if I just quit?

I had often asked myself a number of times. Having been unable to post for a while now. NOW however, that decisions is taken out of my hands.
My dad is retiring next year. Which was known. What wasn't known was everything else. My mother is
also stopping a majority of her work. So we are going on a skeleton budget. So what does that mean
for me? Well. Since I have no job. No interviews since early summer. And I'm not pulling in any sales.
That means I can't pay for internet. The household internet is $90 a month. SO since EVERYONE else has
phones they are able to pay for and can get internet that way, and I'm the only one benifitting from it,
I guess it's okay to just cut me off. I'm not paying for it, which is understandable. And can't pay for it.

So unless a miracle happens, I won't be able to role play any longer the coming months after February.

I am not even sure I can give my characters a proper send off. I may be able to do one or two more things.
It depends. We'll see.

I just want to say I really have enjoyed my time here, the friendships I've made. And the stories we've been
able to tell together.

I wish the rest of all of you well in the future.

Will be sending a pm to someone.

valerio · Post by **valerio** » Mon Dec 12, 2016 5:41 pm

This is so sad.

*hugs* I wish you all the best for a turn of this tide. Take all the care, and hope to see you back one day. I will sorely miss your posts. I will keep your characters alive as best as I can.

Tue Dec 13, 2016 2:16 am

you and your characters will be missed, and I hope you can land some interviews and get a job soon.
and I hope you can find somewhere near your house with free internet, not necessarily so you can keep posting but so you can at least do some things online. like fill out job applications, since many of those are online nowadays.
