This is the thread where you may post inactive characters (ie: no posts for over two weeks) who are needed & are holding up the story. In other words, it's my way of saying: "Which character would you like me to sub for?"

Whoa, step it down a notch, big guy. Let the older members decide which characters are needed and inactive, okay? I myself am not always an active character, but I really don't feel that I need a sub if I don't post in the RPG one day.
And the way I see it, none of the characters you mentioned are holding up the story. It's Elyon & Cedric's conversation we're waiting for before the ball can begin.
I feel like you're pushing everyone around a bit to give you your way. But quite frankly, I don't really like a pushy attitude...

58 times already? How very Vance Michael Justin of you then But seriously... "Claim to sub these character or I will be forced to use my shapeshifter powers" translates to "If you don't post, then I'll make you" in my book. And since you're not exacly starving for characters to play as (since you have Vathek, Uriah, Phobos, Uriah's gang and the interpol agents claimed already) I don't think you'll be forced to do anything. apply some patience, okay? Even though Corny may not have posted for over a week, I clearly remember her name being in the '24 hour' box sometime this week, meaning she's at least present. If you're afraid of inactiveness, you might be better off RPing over Instant Messengers. We're snail-pacing through the plot alright, but that generally means we're moving forward nontheless... Also, I have no idea what you mean with the Trill statement. You are aware that Trill, the Mage and Nerrisa are seperate people here, right?

From Rebel Base in the Infinite City, 07/03/2008.
You're right, that sounds a little threatening. I'll modify it to be more appropriate.
You have a good point. I have way too many characters for a Shapeshifter. I'll remove a few.

Oh nice! Welcome to the forums, young Padawan. Oh, I think you're a Jedi Knight already. ^^ I'm the one handling the Interpol agents, by the way. Thanks for the boost! I needed one since I didn't have enough time lately. Man, my sched is killing my RP time... Oh well... I might as well post in my character as well...

Does anyone want to sub for Astral Hay Lin (aka Altermere)? I'm only allowed to sub for characters (not astral stuff), so the rules forbid me to sub for her. Are there any volunteers?

Thanks for the explanation, Will! I'll be sure to use that as a guideline for future reference.

note that that's not subbing for a character, but just making a few posts to move the story along. Like you wouldn't become Cornelia's sub if she was gone for a week or so, but you could make a post or two if everybody is waiting for Cornelia to respond to move the RP along. get it? You can be subs for a few specific people, but the joy in being the shapeshifter is that you can get a little experience being just about everybody

Well the Interpol agents haven't done anything for over two weeks & I happen waiting for them, so I'll give them a post or two to get them ready for tomorrow.

um, shifty sometimes, people aren't really sure if they will or not be here and if they will, don't want a sub in advance, this is a really slow rpg, i mean we are moving a couple of days in the rpg, per year in RL, if this lasts, it will be awhile before we make it to arc 2, i don't like to say this, but most of us do have a life and when we are behind the pc even for extended periods of time, we other stuff like i make TF2 Maps, or atleast am trying to, One takes like 40 hours to complete and even then it's barely playable, I also play TF2 among other games, i watch tv shows, i have other forums and on occasion read fanfiction or some online book, the RPG indeed isn't a top priority for me anymore, I only started finding time for it after reading your e-mail and i read e-mail every 3 weeks or so as well, this is also the reason why i am letting you play Caleb for a longer time now, might change my mind soon

Don't worry, I just needed the police out of Elyon's house. I won't sub them again unless I get a request. Fine with me... Just say the word when you're ready to make a come-back.
