  1. If you haven't read the current announcements, we'd like to remind you that we do manage a Podcast and YouTube channel for obviously podcasts.

    If you have iTunes, alternatively an iOS or Android app that allows you to subscribe to a podcast you may subscribe to the podcast with the official page here:

    https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/sword-art-podcast/id843641559

    And of course the direct link to the XML feed file here:

    http://sao-rpg.com/podcast/feed.xml

    Either option works, however the second link is always most up-to-date compared to Apple's website.

     

    Now for YouTube you can subscribe by going the link here:

    https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC8hosl5eRf22L6Q3NGuoy2A

    Alternatively you should be able to search and find the channel on your mobile or console devices by searching for SAO-RPG. To stay up-to-date for the YouTube channel; be sure to subscribe by pressing the red button.

    And thank you all for support and liking our content! We'll always be sure to provide you with even more content on a regular basis!

  2. Last year I created a YouTube video showcasing the players versus the staff. Sort of show to new users the fun everyone shares at SAO-RPG. Today after many many requests, I've created a new video, showing off the emotional feeling one feels on a good day, and the bad.

     

    This is Trailer #2

     

    And if you haven't seen, this is Trailer #1

    if the staff want to have less friction with players, stop trying to start the fire  your selves and LISTEN to what the community wants. it makes things better.

    I myself am not directly involved with the staff team, the rules, or enforcement of this site as I merely provide the financial and technical support to this site; however I can not walk away from that statement.

    There mere fact, if that's what you honestly believe, should be straight forward that you yourself are not ready to join the staff team. I don't recall the last time I seen a staff team on a website that intentionally went out it's way to harass, embarrass, or harm it's users. Staff is voluntary here, you opt to join to provide a better and equal place of opportunity for those you work for, non-staff.

    The statement you made questions me if you understand the ramification or the infrastructure involved with amending new rules and features on a site. Revolving around the total number of staff on the team as a whole, those available to dedicate their focus on let's say journals, evaluations, rewards, quests, disputes, reports, scams, checks, dice roll validations, logs, public relations, etc.. and that's just the staff who work to maintain where we are currently at.

    What about those staff who work to move the site actually forward instead of just to stay afloat? The ones behind events, changes, training, new dynamics, developing new lore, testing out new features, posting new content and having staff proof said content before releasing publicly, voting on new ideas, and etc...

    Then finally, the staff that sit down to work with brand new users to the site who need help understanding what this site is and how to navigate, how to post, and want to give this site a try and to have a staff member hold their hand and walk them through each step to ensure that they don't walk away, get things wrong to create conflict with seasoned players, and to genuinely feel welcomed.

    To me, the staff is stretched as it is already and the fact some events are being suspended until a verdict is to be reached tells me they do listen and they do care. But you like many are hasty and want immediate actions, actions without stopping a second and stepping back to review things thoroughly seems more trouble than it's worth and could create a horrible community rather than a good one.

    Maybe communications are lacking and  aren't the best, but to say this staff isn't doing things to make things better, that's insulting.

  4. This issue has become a topic for discussion lately that I wonder if anyone's even aware of the impracticality it actually provides.

    While the general idea of SAO-RPG was to make it a kid's friendly site so as to appeal to our targeted audience i.e. kids who watched the anime. We created this site with that in mind and hence everyone throws out "PG-13" site and not an erotica site. Though it became apparent that some context whether it be language, violence, sexual, demeanor, or otherwise any mature adult theme's still make a good role-play and one that can not be conveyed in a PG-13 environment. And SAO the anime was no stranger to some of these themes i.e. Kirito and Asuna's night together, Kuradeel's poisoning and killing his own allies, or the whole purpose of Laughing Coffin.

    Granted this site could be both at the same time and our methods of to provide both worlds to our viewers came in that of a locked section with the password given to those who consented to it.

    Now here's the problem I originally wanted to make, what if the PST's or the GM's never consented to obtaining that password; whether it be moral, age, or personal choice. Then who staff-wise would validate and review said topics that are locked and hidden from their view? The UR sections were made simply as an elective place for role-players to engage in topics on a higher level, nothing more. The fact when it came to choose which sections should be allowed to gain post counts in, the UR's for SAO and ALO barely made the cut. Whereas the ones for GGO and non-SAO-RP were left out. A choice than can easily be changed based on the demand and goals of this site.

    So I remind you people, just because someone is made staff, does not mean they are forced or trusted upon to be given access to this section, for all you know a 13 year old could be a staff member here and to be given that access without their permission, goes against the purpose of that section.

    And if every staff declined to view that section, who would enforce it? who would give out the rewards? who would make the actions of UR valid and canon? Therefore it can not be deemed valid or canon and serves as the side story to what goes on in SAO. Much like if the SAO anime was put in a time spot between 8am to 5pm; the mentioned parts of the anime above would have to be edited out to suit a larger audience.

    So think of it that way.

  5. This may be the ramblings from an otherwise ignorant site contributor as myself; but what if ALL player killings, attempted player killings, otherwise official and canon player killings on this site be handled this way.

    1. All PK'ings in all it's splendors must be pre-posted in the Evaluations section.
    2. You must include who you intended to PK and in which topic said PK'ing will take place.
    3. Only a member of staff and/or a member of the player community rep's must evaluate and approve/deny said PK, after talking with the targeted PK victim.
    4. If and only if 2/3 or 3/5 of the above approve said PK'ing, then the players may apply the sanctioned PK'ing in their next post.

    All four steps must be followed before a PK'ing takes place, and the rammifcations for not following any said 4 steps will result in the disciplinary action below.

    1. Any unsanctioned PK'ing by anyone will result in automatic banning from the site, duration at staff's discretion.

    I'm going to assume the emails are not being sent out, granted the system tells me otherwise.

    So now we will have to look into other means of providing you all a newsletter.
