«Profile»

» Username: Nevina

» Real name: Secret!

» Age: 25

» Gender: Female

» Height: 5'9"

» About: Nevina lives alone with her beloved cat, but is actually fairly sociable with the few she's close with. She visits her friends and family several times a week and has a flexible schedule as she works from home. She is a professional indexer and also sometimes sells crafts online. As her work is done online, she enjoys keeping up with technology. Aside from crafting, she enjoys gardening and reading, and is also a bit of a tea connoisseur. Nevina enjoys casual gaming, and was eager to try out Sword Art Online. At the event of SAO trapping its users, Nevina was found by her family after it was aired on the news and moved to a hospital with other SAO victims..

» Virtues:

Optimistic. Nevina always looks to the silver lining and doesn't let the bad things hold her down for long.

Easygoing. Accept things as they are and move on. Her flexibility in nature means that she almost never lets stress get to her.

Self sufficient. Nevina is used to standing on her own and being independent already, and knows how to take care of herself.

» Flaws:

Squeamish. Nevina doesn't like the thought of dying in a game, and as a result becomes a bit of a scardy-cat in battle, opting for abilities to avoid attacks rather than doing heavy hitting, and is more than willing to run away if things begin to look dire.

Idealist. The downside of constant optimism is that she sometimes finds it hard to see the negative side of things the same way that other users might and often has impractical expectations about the world.

Self oriented. Nevina prioritizes herself and self preservation. While she'll help others, she won't do it at her own expense.

Oohh, I like that, thanks!

How should we tell someone that their profile is approved? I don't want to post in their journal and potentially mess up any post placement styles they had planned out or something, but a PM might not be public enough to know who was/wasn't approved.

Think I mentioned this at some point or other lost in the storm, but could we have no subforum for fields, and instead have it directly shown when you click Floors 1-10? So it's one less click to get to where you need and not such a huge blank page.

Floors 1-10

everyone's rps

posted here

for all to see

such great

activity

Hence why I said "No one else [likes it]" XD;

And my power is so high, my hair is anti-gravity and radioactive!

I like the honor system XD No one else does!

But then what about crafting again?

I actually like that idea of 1 rp = 1 skill point. Though might be rather hard to judge just by a certain amount of posts in a town? Not sure how that'd work. For the others though it'd also be easy enough to keep track of, gm just checks their rp links in their profile.

And since most people seem against the honor system, maybe everyone has to do a 'level check' every 10 skill points? Like you hit a cap and have to submit to a thread for approval before you're allowed to rp with any more under your belt?

LV 10: [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10]

I also don't know if 1 rp = 1 skill point should also = 1 lvl, 'cause what if we end up with someone leaving floor 10 at like, lvl 50? Or would most rps go slow enough/spread out that this won't be an issue? Though that happening probably wouldn't be surprising since a lot of players would stay on a floor longer than needed to make sure they're slightly overpowered for the next floor as a security measure; I think they mention something like that in the series? *vague memory*

» John Doe (linked to their chara profile). Met briefly, but seemed like a nice enough fellow. A little strange, though.

» Jane. Ugh, self righteous and very in-your-face.

» Bob. An interesting guy, wouldn't mind getting to know them better.

» Choco. Closest friend who is super cool and always full of energy!

(no "in progress" means its complete; "incomplete" can mean one or the other person stopped replying for a long time)

(once everyone is used to the SP/PP/OP acronyms we can use that for profiles)

Which means it's Namine then.

But I think you should still participate in topics as I like that you bring up counter points that people can discuss upon. It's still building stages so we don't have to have everything finalized right now and could always backtrack on things.

Can't seem to unlock topic on my phone. But anyways,

I don't really like post count as level indicator cause then it's about spam so if we don't go by post count then multiple characters don't matter.

Marriages I don't see why they can't just post that in their profile?

One profile per character already separates them out for gms to see. Inventory posted in said profile would obviously belong to that character.

The only downsides I agree with is signatures (if they even get approved) and avatars.

edit: I should also add that I still don't mind both ways being an option and letting the user choose

Another idea is to get rid of levels totally and have people apply for obtaining another skill slot?

I've got a reply to this at home + mock up, but didn't get to finish. I'm at work right now and will post when I get back home.

But even if we have a lot of characters I don't see why number of threads is an issue. ctrl-f and viola. Don't mind there being a limit of posts per profile. Maybe no more than one pg?

There isn't exactly a whole swarm of people here, so I don't think one topic per chara is really all that crowded. Dead characters will eventually float to the bottom as inactive posts, same for those who choose not to keep it updated, so the list will likely be relatively stagnant. Most probably won't even make new posts, just edit existing ones. It's just those existing posts could get fairly long which would make reaching other charas troublesome.

The journal isn't meant to act as a twitter. When I say summary I mean like a broad overview of like, stating on one sentence what happened in three rps, as an example.

Oohh, I really like SJ's idea on using that as the stamp of approval 8D But yeah, finding people to make those could be troublesome.

We can have a volunteer thread, or people can learn how to do it themselves. If they have photoshop that'd be great, but I bet it can be done in gimp. I don't have gimp so haven't tested it, but gimp is a free program that can open PS files and maintain its layers. I can simplify the layers in the file so it's easier for people to work with, but not sure what effect gimp might have on them.

You'd need to

1) Download signature template

2) Download & install the SAO font

3) Choose & paste a background image

4) Edit text

5) Save & enjoy

It'd probably have more steps if you use gimp though, because I use an effect that outlines the text so it stands out more. It's subtle, but makes a big difference in readability. From what I googled, gimp can outline text too, just requires a few more steps. The problem I see after that is I've also made said outline slightly transparent to blend in better, but I can't tell if gimp does that or not.

Also I thought about level and actually had that first, then realized how often that'd have to be updated.. too much hassle XD

Here's what I meant on mini-profile type

[attachment=0]sigtemplate.png[/attachment]

Small and unobtrusive, just gives pointers and slightly more interesting than text alone.

But I don't mind having no sig at all, so whatever you guys want works for me.

Users keep track of RPs in their journal, honor based system, GMs can do random checks. I figure completed is when both users feel they've completed whatever they set out to do and have no further replies. Or something that that effect. Still up for other ideas.

Aww, everyone knows you're the most active with all that <3 No one could ever accuse you of not doing anything XD

• Two characters of two different accounts.

Sounds normal?

• Allowed to use two of your own characters.

Although I don't care for this idea, I think it should probably be allowed. I imagine most people would find it boring to rp by themselves the entire time so I don't see this instance happening very often, but if they do use two of their own characters then it gives them more to explore and write about at least.

• Same sex marriage allowed?

Takes place in the future, and never seen a reason to restrict it in an mmo.

• How to get married

Perhaps there's a registration thread for marriages to make it official, and its up to the player on how to do a ceremony if they have one.

• Where to get married

Wherever the user wants so long as they register first?

• Requirements for marriage

Each user must have a minimum post count? Just to show they've been active.

• Inventory sharing?

No idea what our item system is so no opinion on this yet.

You can show who they're married to in the journal, maybe signature if that ends up being allowed? There's not a whole lot of "I'm married to so and so" irl either, unless via tattoo or ring engraving.

I still like my idea for amount of rps completed as an indicator of how far the character has advanced.

Another angle to look at it is it'd act like a character reference guide as sometimes people may refer to characters and not the player so having multiple characters I'm one thread might make them harder to find unless it fits in the title or you figure out who the player is

Am I the only one who likes avatar as avatar? XD its already an acceptable term for a character model in games so it's fairly self explanatory as is. Or what do they call it in Sao?
