[QUOTE="Blade of Desecration, post: 3179064, member: 27325"] Agreed, but if we don't have the site, it'll be harder to attract new members. On the other hand, we need the members to make it worth it. Hmmmm... Mod status isn't really all that big of an issue, but it'd be nice if we can have site management pinned down early, so we can hit the ground running. I think right now everyone needs to go to their local GMs for recruitment, and maybe we can start setting up recruitment threads on some forums. However, the recruitment threads will only really be useful when we can give people a reason to stay, so we need to start off with a bang. Mod status in all sections could work, but I think it'd be easier if we were each concentrated on one or two jobs and not cutting into each other's turf. If whoevers running the forums wants to let something slide, I don't want to get into an argument with them over what is or isn't acceptable. That can be reserved for the Council Forum. But it sends the wrong message if I go over someones head to punish an offending poster. As for strictness, this is something we're going to need to have a debate on. I'm in favor of maybe something a little looser than ENWorld or WotC, but that's because we seem to have a fairly mature crowd here. But I'm of the firm belief, that religious and social discussions must stay at the most basic level, and politics shouldn't be included at all. The reason I say religion should be included is because religious confrontation is one of the biggest problems for GMs today. I don't want to tell a GM who is having a problem with one of his players' religious parents that he can't ask for advice on a forum designed for that purpose. Tommorow, I should have time to post an updated site layout. I plan on doing this every few days. The discussion we've got going here is good, but I'd like to pick up the pace. Ideally, we should have most if not all of these issues resolved before we start, so that we can have a smooth start, something neccessary if we want to attract new members. [/QUOTE]
