[JPOWW]

Thank you, I asked in the main thread and got ignored. sweatdrop

Is it possible to IC'ly stage freeze a character even if they grow before you get a chance to get the rp in? Or is it a snooze - you lose situation?

I believe you can still rp them as younger stages but as 'backlogged' rps, I think

I have another question!!

When someone considers an RP "abandoned" in SOA, does that mean the events of the RP never occured? Or does that mean the RP simply didn't reach a definite ending, but the events still happened in the continuity of the character?  

[Marsh the Sex Panda]

I think it depends on the person, for me it means no ones replied in 4+ months and it doesn't look like it's going to have an ending but the events still happened. I don't know about other people though

Why are the Eusi'uzulu lands private?

Why are the Eusi'uzulu lands private?

Some prides have the option of being a private thread and only those members of that pride are able to see whats within the pride, as far as I know, the Eusi'uzulu pride is very isolated at the moment with IC happenings there.

Why are the Eusi'uzulu lands private?

Because the pride isn't 'created' yet, and not out n.n no one owns characters from that pride yet. It's a WIP that Dusty was working on last year.

I agree mostly with what Marshy said, but sometimes it's different for me. I sometimes judge by how many posts were made in the "abandoned" rp to tell if it all actually happened. For example, if I started an rp with someone, and we each only made one or two posts and then forgot about it, then I will probably say it never happened. But if all the rp was lacking was some kind of conclusion and it was just going on for so long that we just never finished it, but it still had enough "meat" to be considered plot, then I'll say it did actually happen.
It really is personal preference.

Yeah, I'm trying to get an idea of how it works here. 3nodding

Similar to Iris's question
(only opposite), if you get an SoA
as an adult, can you still do backlogged RPs?  

[Andranis]

Not really? It depends on the SoA they're RPing wth, like... I have a few RPs for Shetani that are backlog because the other SoA she was in an RP with, the RP was backlog for THEM because the RP occured, in a time line, BEFORE one that was done already since they grew OOCly before the RP began. But for an SoA gotten as an adult... You can't backlog an RP as, say, a cub or adolescent. You CAN do flashbacks, like if you do a monologue RP, but not actual RP.

Did I make any sense at all...? gonk  

[Dr_jelly]

Yes, you did, thank you. 3nodding  

[youngshorty]

o.o A few questions....

1.) About Seers...Do we like, post what kind of visions they're having and if it's okay the vision comes true? Or does like a mod in the shop post what kind of vision they're having depending on how the seer's played? o.O;

2.) Can regular SoA's with Seer abilities see ghosts/souls? Someone in the regular shop asked this and I thought it was a good question. Could it be possible for the Seers' to have such an ability? o.o
