You know what you guys could use? A Revan Event.

No thank you.

[Vieve]

There have been times recently when I've logged in, realized I didn't know a damn one of the characters floating around the Summitt and IGS, and thought to myself:  'hey, maybe you should make a secret alt and get to know these people'.


The urge generally goes away after I smack myself around.   

[Alain Colcer]

for me its a two-part reason to be really inactive

First, i started a week ago a long term project out of town, i still got internet, but no access to a gaming rig.....so eve only for weekends if even (just skill queue).

Two, the new forums kinda put me down on even attempting to post a message.......it looks like a fan-made forum....and that breaks it big for me sadly :S

[Ryven Krennel]

Some of us new guys are worth getting to know.  Does seem to be in a bit of a slow patch lately.

I agree, though I'm not sure that even a Revan event could turn things around in the short term, actually

The fact that this thread has garnered so many responses in so many days reassures me that the rp community isn't dead--just sleeping. Honestly, after the crap pulled this summer with faction standings and Incarna, a nice long nap was called for. The question remains whether it'll be worth waking up. I remain (perhaps foolishly) hopeful.

[Ghost Hunter]

The RP community is Sleepers?

You mean... that wasn't you?

[Julianus Soter]

People use Summit?

Amazingly, there are other roleplay channels.

That wasn't me.  I think.  It might have been me.  Who are we talking about?

Oh, *mumble* no one....

Are any of them active?

[Kybernetes Moros]

Mata made a good point about the problem being kinda self-reinforcing. Characters (indeed, players) can get discouraged from bothering with the Summit much by the for some reason high concentration of Imperial characters, at the moment, for instance. There's also the various flavours of character and RP that aren't Imperial that also encourage their own continuation that rub characters or players up the wrong way. The curse of a wholly public channel, I guess.

Then there's the issue of more private / specialised / both channels being, well, silent. I don't think it's anything serious beyond a natural lull, but I'll admit it's vaguely irritating. That said, I'm back working myself so my own time is kinda erratic. vOv

Kyber's point about there being characters you don't want to socialise with is valid for me.

Which is a shame, since I quite like a lot of the players who I don't want to associate IC. (Hi Kyber)

Which means I spend more time talking in OOC channels than in IC channels with people outside my corp. Once I've started socialising in one channel, it just tends to stay in that channel, even though some of it could be in an IC channel.
