All my life I've been over the top I don't know what I'm doing All I know is I don't wanna stop
Questions How long have you been a member of the D-Party? - I'm actually not 100% sure, it looks like I never posted in the welcome thread, so I'm guessing about a year or so? I know for sure I lurked in ya'lls event threads before I joined though. I think I joined here a bit before I joined the GDA.... I don't know for sure.
How active are you in the D-Party Guild? -Decently I think. I try to help where I can! Although I think I may dial up the chatting here~
How active are you in the D-Party Thread? -I post occasionally, funny things are said and posted there. >w<
How active are you at D-Party Events (such as Diedrich's Birthday party, D-Ster, Spooktacular Halloween, etc)? -I'd like to say fairly active, even if I'm not entering in the contests, I am there chatting a bit here and there.
Did the D-Party host enough events during the year to keep your interest? Please explain. -Yes. Everyone's doing a great job!
What are your favorite D-party contests and why? -Oh it is definitively the Carol one. FANTASTIC songs happened.
What are your LEAST favorite D-Party contests and why? - I don't have a least favorite.
What do you enjoy most about being a member of the D-Party? -All the shenanigans, and the sense of community.
What makes you proud to be part of the D-Party? -All of it.
Did you participate in Flash Space Meet Ups? Why or why not? How can we improve flash space meet ups? - Yes, Because I either helped organise them or I just wanted to have some fun, I think we need some sort of hangout-spot. Even if Gaia never gets it's act together and makes flashspace guild HQs, there is a spot which is still active with A MASSIVE DIEDRICH FOUNTAIN from a valentine's day event! I think it'd be a good place for us, they're chairs and tables, and maybe we can invite whatever fanclub Radiojack has!
How do you think the D-Party could improve for next year? -By keep on doing what we're doing, and figuring out what does and doesn't work in the coming year!
Do you have any awesome ideas for 2016? -More flashspace meet ups, setting up a chat room somewhere (maybe chatzy) so we can all talk quicker than the quote system in the forums, and we should get Diedrich re-elected!
What is the best way to have your voice heard in this guild? What would make you feel like you are part of something great and awesome that is this guild? -Posting and quoting someone tbh. I already feel this way. This whole place gives me the warm fuzzies!
Where do they see this guild going in the future? -More D-Partiers, more laughter, more ridiculous facts
If you could describe the guild in 4 words, what would it be? -Fantastic, Funny, Silly, Wonderful
Do you have any other comments? -All of you should go search "Diedrich" in the forums occasionally so whenever he is mentioned, we can join Hassli in appreciating our president!
All fired up, I'm gonna go till I drop You're either in or in the way Don't make me, I don't wanna stop

Questions:
How long have you been a member of the D-Party? Year and a half, I believe, it may be longer. How active are you in the D-Party Guild? On a scale of one through ten, I'd say somewhere along the lines of four, five or six. I'd like to get involved more, however a few variables stop me at times. How active are you in the D-Party Thread? Not too active, usually I'll hang around in the thread, lurking and posting but after a day or two, I'll lose the link. How active are you at D-Party Events (such as Diedrich's Birthday party, D-Ster, Spooktacular Halloween, etc)? Fairly active, though, aiming to become more active this year due to coming back at a late time (About All Hallows Eve) Did the D-Party host enough events during the year to keep your interest? Please explain. Sadly, I wasn't here for a bit of this year, but with the part that I was here, the parties were very pleasing to behold and the competitions were varied, fun and interesting. What are your favorite D-party contests and why? My favourite D-Party contests? Festive wise, it'd be Halloween, more people are on at this time of the year, and it's really easy to relax, talk and celebrate with others! Competition wise, however, Avi-dress ups are my personal favourite. It's awesome to gain insights and inspiration from others! What are your LEAST favorite D-Party contests and why? I can't say that there is a least favourite contest, as each have their own appeal and grandeur. What do you enjoy most about being a member of the D-Party? Hands down, the fellow Guildies. Each and every single one are amazing and kind, and all round wonderful. What makes you proud to be part of the D-Party? My fellow Guildies! Did you participate in Flash Space Meet Ups? Why or why not? How can we improve flash space meet ups? Sadly, I did not. The only one that I was aware of this year (Due to late arrival) was the Christmas one, and I could not attend due to a house party with family and friends. How do you think the D-Party could improve for next year? As I see it, D-Party, from the get going has been improving and improving upon each year on it's own, so the only thing I can think of is keeping the guild up! Do you have any awesome ideas for 2016? Deidrich getting an upgrade with a cool mech body! More somberly, however, I do not. What is the best way to have your voice heard in this guild? What would make you feel like you are part of something great and awesome that is this guild? Depends, if it's directed to Crew Members, they're brilliant and fast in replying to Private Messages, though in threads just wiggling into a convo! (Easily said, ahah) Where do they see this guild going in the future? To the land of parties, green bunnies and sugar! Wait... we're already here, great! If you could describe the guild in 4 words, what would it be? The President loves sweets. Do you have any other comments?

Questions How long have you been a member of the D-Party? Uh, I think I joined back in late 2014? How active are you in the D-Party Guild? I stop by occasionally. When there's something going on or a planning thing I drop by. The guild announcements help me remember to come by here. I'd be more active if other people quoted me more. How active are you in the D-Party Thread? I post fairly often. How active are you at D-Party Events (such as Diedrich's Birthday party, D-Ster, Spooktacular Halloween, etc)? I try to participate. It's gotten harder now that I do stuff for Rufus, too, but I like to party as much as the next D-party member. Did the D-Party host enough events during the year to keep your interest? Please explain. I think the D-party does a great job hosting events! They aren't too frequent or infrequent--I think you guys have gotten the balance just about perfect. What are your favorite D-party contests and why? I like the art contests. I love seeing what people come up with for those, and sometimes I enter for fun, too. What are your LEAST favorite D-Party contests and why? RNGs. I know they're super popular, but they make it nearly impossible to hold conversations in the event threads.
What do you enjoy most about being a member of the D-Party? There are lots of parties (events)! The people I've run across in D-party threads are also pretty awesome. It's given me something to keep me interested in Gaia. What makes you proud to be part of the D-Party? The community and fun events Hassli and the crew put together. Gaians have to make their own fun, and I think you guys do a great job with that.
Did you participate in Flash Space Meet Ups? Why or why not? How can we improve flash space meet ups? Nah. I'm generally not on during the times those happen, and firefox hates flash.
How do you think the D-Party could improve for next year? I like the conversation threads in the guild, like the pub for St. Patrick's Day and similar ones. I'd like to see some more of those between our big events. Do you have any awesome ideas for 2016? Nope. I'm bad at coming up with stuff like that. I would like to see another costume contest for Halloween. That was super fun. I also enjoy the Diedrich Valentines. What is the best way to have your voice heard in this guild? What would make you feel like you are part of something great and awesome that is this guild? Um, more responses to my posts, but I understand that people forget about guilds and you need a certain number of dedicated people keeping to keep them active. Where do you see this guild going in the future? It's going to get a ton of new members if Gaia does something official to coincide with the U.S. presidential election. If you could describe the guild in 4 words, what would it be? We have the parties! Do you have any other comments? Diedrich for President! Forever!
I wasn't active enough in the guild last year to answer most of these questions, but I will say that when I tried to go Christmas caroling with the guild during the holiday events it said I had to add the Captain of the guild as a friend to find the group in Towns 2, but it wouldn't let me add him/her.

Questions How long have you been a member of the D-Party? ♥ Hm...since late 2013, early 2014? Don't recall exactly.
How active are you in the D-Party Guild? ♥ Not as active as I'd like to be. Real world is kicking mah butt.
How active are you in the D-Party Thread? ♥ Again, not as active as I'd like to be. I heart you guys.
How active are you at D-Party Events (such as Diedrich's Birthday party, D-Ster, Spooktacular Halloween, etc)? ♥ I tend to just lurk in the background and sneak Diedrich art to Hassli under the table for his nefarious uses. Sometimes I enter art or other contests.
Did the D-Party host enough events during the year to keep your interest? Please explain. ♥ Yes and no. Yes, because it seems like we're always partying, and No, because there's the obligatory "NEVER ENOUGH PARTIES scream" cheer. ^^
What are your favorite D-party contests and why? ♥ Art? Because I art. Also maybe the "pick a name/slogan/etc for ______!" sorta stuff.
What are your LEAST favorite D-Party contests and why? ♥ The crazy bump-counting and frenzied posting stuff. I can't keep up. eek Well those aren't contests, really. But if they were, then those.
What do you enjoy most about being a member of the D-Party? ♥ A couple of things. For one, everyone is so friendly, whether you know them or not. Also, as an artist, I often get hit hard with creative blocks, and Diedrich is one of the best things to doodle to get my mind pointed in the right direction again. smile (Plus Hassli gets free art out of the bargain.)
What makes you proud to be part of the D-Party? ♥ The friendly, upbeat and non-judgmental vibe of its members.
Did you participate in Flash Space Meet Ups? Why or why not? How can we improve flash space meet ups? ♥ Not really. They don't interest me. I remember when flash space stuff was the COOLEST THING EVER waaaay back before zOMG, but that was years ago, and at this point all the moving avis and flailing legs in one tiny place are more distracting than exciting. But that's just me.
How do you think the D-Party could improve for next year? ♥ Maybe more involvement in/with other forums? I don't just mean the main ones everyone gravitates to, but basically have a couple of volunteers float around newbie or supportive threads looking for people who stand out as community-oriented and involved-types, and then recruiting them to be even more awesome.
Do you have any awesome ideas for 2016? ♥ A few, actually! 1) I think it'd be really neat to organize more co-op events with other Guilds, but with a bit of twisted fun, like playing out a ridiculous "player NPC" (you know what I mean) argument in a silly forum battle, or that sort of thing. Normally the staff instigates that stuff, like the Diedrich vs Snowmen thing, but some Gaian-organized "friendly-rivalries" would definitely draw attention. (And they could end up cannon, for all we know.) 2) More varied contests. It seems like always the same bunch of contest types, which is fine, and they should stick around, but add other unique ones. Different types of art themes, like "design your own Diedrich item!" for example (not that it would get made, but Gaians have such cool ideas it'd be a shame to not even see them). Maybe challenge people to write or even record a "rap battle" between characters à la "Epic Rap Battles of History", or "make an avi/draw/write about Diedrich (or whoever) Steampunk/Goth/Lolita/etc style", but with a twist that they have to include a particular item or something. 3) How about a yearly "D-Party Yearbook" of some kind? An organized collection of art from that year, writings, notable forum posts, events, shout-outs from users, contest winners, "ads" for people's art or service threads, and any other submitted content, along with a "group shot" of submitted D-Party member avis dressed for the occasion. All the content could be gleaned with a bit of cooperation, for sure. I mean, look at the fancy Newsletters other guilds come out with. We can do that too! 4) I think there should be more ways for D-Party members to get to know each other - not just "Hey, we both like Diedrich!", or the once-a-year Secret Santa, or the occasional "pub" thread, but creating more genuine opportunities to make new, lasting friends. Maybe a regular-ish more friend-making-focused event of some kind? I haven't thought it all through, but the idea may be worth looking into.
What is the best way to have your voice heard in this guild? What would make you feel like you are part of something great and awesome that is this guild? ♥ From what I've seen over the years, entering contests seems to garner the most attention to one's username. Being super active in party threads also helps, especially if you're replying to practically everyone. But otherwise I'd say if you want to be heard, be sure to voice your opinions in suggestion threads in the forums or guild.
Where do you see this guild going in the future? ♥ It will boldly go where no guild has gone before!
If you could describe the guild in 4 words, what would it be? ♥ Friendliest NPC fanclub ever. If it has to be 4 separate ones: lighthearted, active, community-focused (pretend that's one word), and consistent!
Do you have any other comments? ♥ Nope. Just free hugs for all.
