As one of the less vocal individuals on the board I have recently moved back in status, retreating to Those That Lurk. While friendlier than most online communities, I believe a change in atmosphere might provide the Community with a refreshed perspective. The rift between current EN Worlders and those looking to become part of the community bespeaks of stagnancy.Giving up gaming altogether had been on the brain through a combination of this recent shift and the current lack of players in my small town.       Apology: Strong Opinions above were not meant to insult anyone in anyway. My opinions lack humbleness at times.       Without further ado I now present some Selfish Suggestions <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" />.      SS #1 :Articles on the Art of DM'ing: As a novice Dungeon Master I advocate the needs of all others like me. A series of Articles from the more experienced members of our community would fill a real void in the masses of cyberspace. While there is plenty of advice out there Practical Advice is of exceeding rarity.  A semi-novice voice would also be of help.Support for Making Our Games Better  is all that I ask.     SS #2 : Fewer forums: As mentioned before by some fellow patrons, portions of the message boards are dying out simply because of the amount of division present. I would like to advocate keeping division of a General,Rules, and Storyhour forums while allowing for a [tag] system. Anymore breakup may lead to either factions such as the case at  Monte Cook's boards with the seperate DM/Player boards or excessive foraging such as case with EN world's current boards.      SS #3: A New Look: Simply to reclaim that sense of wonder I once had when I started visiting this site and these boards 2 years ago.      SS #4: A Personal Copyeditor: I really need to learn subtlety. Until that day some poor sap to edit my posts may be necessary. Eric's Grandmother must have a file on me.</blockquote>
