As a suggestion, it might be fun to make it a VR environment or a real location with a VR functionality, kinda like Ashar's sisterhood garden. A video comms channel like the summit limits you to simple discussion, doesn't leave open the possibility of, for example, serving traditional meals, playing instuments, dancing, etc.

Thoughts?

[ArtOfLight]

Pretty much what I had in mind for the same reasons. I'd prefer a VR environment over an actual place simply because it promotes more spontaneous RP, at least in my opinion. I will, however, go with whatever people would prefer, I'll have fun writing up the description and environment either way.

A channel like this could be a good thing. I think there are a fair number of Amarr RPers around, they're just spread out. I have to admit that Lallara's idea of using the in game channel has some appeal. We wouldn't have 'one of us' as moderator but it seems to me that the purpose of the channel is to provide what we're looking for.

edit: nevermind, that channel is a mess.

I can tell you from our own experiences with the Sansha's Nation channel this is a bad idea.

[Lyn Farel]

We're not "withdrawing" Lyn.

We're basically talking about just creating a channel where we can RP among ourselves and anyone willing to talk about Amarr culture and religion. We're not talking about leaving other RP channels and no longer RPing with people.

Well yes, I never said the contrary. Amarr needs its own Heian College (just call it the Edo college, derp derp), since the basillica seems to have passed out.

Yeah, the Amarr channel could be fun, but unless there are mods on top of things, I can see it getting trolled to fuck kinda like the Summit has recently by fweddit and then RvB. Part of the hope is to avoid the trolling/harassment that follows Amarr RPers, so having the ability to punt trolls out will probably be important.

[Ilsenae Alexandros]

Rhia would definitely join a channel like this. I'm looking to get her more involved in the Amarr scene.

If you want, Ill create a Minmatar alt and serve beverages or something...

In all seriousness, good luck with this.  Please let us non-Amarr know how it goes!

[Louella Dougans]

there's one called "interpretarium", i think one of the ctcs is the op for it

[ArtOfLight]

Alright, so I've created the channel. It is called "Imperial Congregation" and the following is its MOTD:

"Surround yourself with the faithful. Stand together, for there is no strength like it under the heavens."
-Book of Missions 71:21

A meeting place for the congregation of the faithful, the loyal and the non-hostile. This virtual space is an enclosed dome constructed to appear as an artifical courtyard. Circular by design, the floor is the smooth gold metallic architecture of the Amarr Empire, tables line the circumference of the circle, each capable of sitting up to six persons.

The roof of the dome is all but invisible, hidden behind an artificially created atmospheric Athran sunset of soft oranges, sharp reds and brilliant yellows. The Holy Symbol of the Amarr is engraved in the middle of the circular courtyard covering the greater area of the interior of the circle.

((This is an IC channel, moderators reserve the right to remove anyone that is continually out-of-character. Those in direct opposition to the Empire and the Amarr are expected to remain civil or they will be removed.))

[Casiella]

This sounds cool and I hope it succeeds!

[Aldrith Shutaq]

In all honesty I think the channel should be Amarr character-only, otherwise it runs the risk of losing its flavor and becoming a more civil, somewhat Amarr-centric Summit rather than a Summit that is Amarr through and through. Another advantage is that we can argue and bicker in private while we can start agreeing on united fronts we can present to the other races in our RP.

Making it Amarr-character only means you are unable to do any outreach via the channel.  If the intent is to educate others (those not playing Amarr characters) on the Amarr perspective, then you need to allow others to join the channel and ask questions.

This does not mean freedom of speech.
