bullshit duck, do you realize that there are more posts in random talk than on the rping boards this is clearly a large problem if we don't kill the problem, it'll kill us when's the last time an rp was posted, duck when was it when was the last time people were rping the last month? So removing a place people are active in fixes everything? That makes it more active? ?? You don't get the point if random talk is removed, it'll motivate people to roleplay if we're the roleplaying forums, how come we aren't doing the function we're supposed to be doing?

No one wants to RP and you can't really fix that by removing the place they're active in. That isn't going to motivate them. Then you make them if people don't want to, damnit you don't catter to them if we're the role playing forum, how come we aren't roleplaying? Where does it say we're the roleplaying forum? It's Bannanachair. This isn't the RPF anymore. Even if it stemmed from a roleplaying forum, you can't force people to RP. That's just not how it works.

That's just not how it works. how it works is that you do force them to roleplay see, if we keep heading where we currently are, we're screwed lets take from history, to say for example the great depression: had FDR not motivated people to work, had FDR not taken to the core of the problem of the depression, America would be fifty separate countries

That's just it we aren't the Roleplaying forums, sure it's part of this forum but it isn't the whole thing. We have Roleplay there and if someone wants to RP they can do so. Nothing has been done to hinder that, people just like talking about random things and that isn't a problem. If we remove it we end up motivating them to leave the forum not to roleplay. They are able to roleplay now and OCC is doing nothing to stop them.

Which reminds me that I need to my CS for Tim's newest RP.

The pizza place made a seperately owned mini restaurant that served cheesy breadsticks and pizza too. It's ok if it's focused on breadsticks; they have a high demand and the pizza can sometimes be a bit bland or spiced icky or whatever anyhow.

Another thing is that at nearly any hour of the day I can pick and I guarantee you that there will be under 10 people online. That's another sign that this site will crash.

Random talk has more threads/posts than any other board on the site. If you remove what causes the lack of motivation, people will go back to roleplaying. EDIT: It's the same thing with the Great Depression, as I had said earlier, had FDR not motivated people with the National Work Association and motivated people to work, America would be in shambles, or controlled by North Korea.

Alternatively, you will piss off the general population and people will all either migrate to RPF or find a new site.
