Ok guys and girls, time for a serious message.

In the past few months this RP has stagnated a lot. There's hardly any activity in the IC and this is causing friction between two groups of players – those who want a faster tempo and those, who are content with this one. We are all different individuals and we have different ways of incorporating roleplaying in our busy everyday lives, *however* the whole premise of RPing is that it makes you happy. 

As those of you who log into skype know, I am from the ones who are not happy with thing as they currently are. There's an array of reasons why that is, but the first and foremost is that I'm expecting to severely cut back on RPing or stopping it entirely since September this year. Thus I not only don't feel compelled to, but also can't afford to commit to an RP that will be going on for years. 

The reason I'm saying this is following: the slow speed is killing my interest and has been doing so for the past 2 months. I know the same applies to some other players. That's what leads me to raise the issue with all of you. As it is, I can see two ways this problem can be solved.

1- We try to have some acceptable deadlines for this season that work for all of us and some of you speed up while some of us settle for a more lax tempo, or
2- Me and the other players break off and continue the RP from where it is now, but with a faster tempo. 

The reason why I only raised this now is because personally I consider it disgraceful to have to split the RP apart and put people against each other. This is not my aim, nor my desire – I love you all as players and respect you as people and don't want RP problems to come between us as people. Even if we do have to part ways, we can still have cross-overs and you'll still have capable GMs to lead you here.

So.... this is a call for you to express your opinions on how things should change so that we're all happy. I'm accepting other ideas if you have any, and would love to hear your alls opinions. 

Last, but not least, sorry that it had to come to this. Again, it's nothing personal, just a matter of preference.
