@Mahz I have some things to catch up on but will send in some ideas and such for both a tag and program. It wouldn't be the first I set up, gonna grab some of my notes from BattleOn and SI from back on the day that should help. (I've reworked most of my tutorials from there already for this forum, but still have some others.)

@Ellri An alternative to having a blacklist on members who can use the tag would be the inverse: Having a whitelist for members who have proven themselves dedicated to mentoring and helping others (or at least have not been aggressive or harmful in the past). Perhaps one could apply to be allowed to use the tag, a mod could check them over, and then give them permissions to use the tag. There could even be an added Title or other flair that states when an individual has the mentoring authority, either just on their profile or also under their avatar on posts.

A feature I've started brainstorming again is the "roleplay roster" idea since it sets the stage for some short-term features:

1. Private roleplays
2. Mature roleplays + an opt-in system
3. Some way to connect people in a roleplay such that they can do things like @Notify the whole group.
4. ???

Here's a random post of mine from two years ago that came up in the search for previous discussion: roleplayerguild.com/posts/2478148. Just search for "active" in this thread to see more chatter about some sort of "active roleplayers" system over the years.

So that I don't languish in indecision by brainstorming a bigger feature than I can chew, I think it'd be simplest to start off with private roleplays.

The simplest implementation I can think of is:

- Each roleplay has a roster (list of players).
- The GM + Co-GMs (GMs) are always on this list.
- The GMs can add/remove players which notifies the player.
- Players can always leave a roster which prevents them from being added again.
- The GMs can choose among some options:
- ( ) The RP is private and only the roster can see the roleplay
- ( ) The RP is public and only the roster can post in the roleplay
- ( ) ???
- Tagging your roleplay with "18+" automatically makes your roleplay private,
but furthermore, the only players eligible for the roster are those who've
opted-in to the 18+ system.

That seems pretty well-defined and straight-forward to me.

I'll start playing around with the code, but I'd like to hear any other thoughts.

@Mahz

Gonna add the suggestions we came up with in the Discord here, so that they're written down.
Roleplay roster, stage 1:
  • Private roleplays
  • Roleplay participant system
    Roster features:
    • GM/Co-GMs always on list
    • GMs can add people (perhaps send invite that the player has to accept?)
    • GMs can remove people
    • Players can remove themselves from an RP
  • RP join modes:
    • RP public (no joining necessary)
    • RP public (GMs add players)
    • RP private (GMs add players)


Roleplay roster, stage 2:
  • Mature roleplays + Opt-in system for those who want 18+ RPs
  • GMs (and maybe players) can use @notify functions towards Roster members (initally: everyone, GMs, non-GMs)
    Changes to Roster system:
    • Players can request to join a non-jump-in RP
    • GMs can "block" someone from (re)joining an RP
  • RP join modes:
    • RP public (no joining necessary)
    • RP public (GMs add players)
    • RP private (GMs add players)
    • RP public (players can join)
    • RP public (players can request to join)
    • RP mature (invisible to non-opt-in)


Roleplay roster, stage 3:
  • GMs can create "factions" in roster, which in turn can be notified separately from other members
    New Join modes:
    • RP private, Friends of GMs/participants can (request to) join
    • RP private, friends of GMs/participants can only see





If anyone sees something they feel is "missing" above, don't hesitate to suggest it.

@Mahz There seems to be a bug here.



Instead of when the post was created under the post title, it's showing the last time someone posted. It's doing this in the 1x1 RP and intck tabs. ...actually, it seems to be doing it all the Roleplaying subforums. It isn't doing it in News or Off-Topic though.

@MahzQuestion: what if an RP is set to invite only and someone accidentally leaves or declines an invite? Or leaves and wishes to rejoin later? Could there be a feature implemented to opt-in to receiving requests to join again?

@Light the Dark Thx, think I got it.

@JBRam2002 I'll try to do whatever is simplest. In this case I think it'd be simplest to just let people rejoin/invite whenever they want. GMs can topic-ban users. Users would need a blocklist of their own to make it symmetrical.

@Mahz Can we have an additional folder in the PMs and have it titled "Roleplays"? Currently my folders do have a mix of stuff by dedicating one to IC stuff will make it far more easier to manage.

Mahz is planning to get rid of the PM-based RPs, replacing them with private RPs where the players control who gets to read/post, but which go in the guild forum sections instead.

@Mahz, thank you for bringing search back, although I have one request for a feature that seems to have been lost in the latest implementation.
Can we be able to sort the results by time, so I can look for the newest or oldest posts which match the search criteria?

Question about name changes - Seeing that this is now a thing on the forum I have some questions.

If one is to change their name and they are say listed in an Rp they are already in - will tags for them change in previous posts? If not, will say if someone clicks on their old name in an @mention will it redirect someone to their old name?

Also, is there going to be a list of name changes so that GM's will know if someone changed their name? Say they had a problem with @Joe in the past and banned them from an RP but Joe changed his name to Ralph and then tried to join a new RP that GM is hosting - will the Gm be able to check for this?

And about Pm's - what about the pm's people are in conversations with a person that has changed their name? Will they continue to go through or will new pm's have to be started?

While the old tags wont change in post which have previously been submitted, they will still lead to the same user. I couldn't tell you if using the old tag name will notify the person though as I haven't yet tried it yet.

We, the mods, can see a list of the latest changes but I don't believe there's a public viewing. I can say though that most have been relatively minor with either spelling or easy to spot adjustments. From what I can see no one has yet to create a new image. With PMs however the name will change but the conversation will continue unhindered. Keeping that in mind you have a list of old users tagged in a PM or something, that will still be valid for your particular reasons.

To understand it all a bit better imagine how every user has a number attached to their account. You can test this with the roleplayerguild.com/users where adding /1 will lead to Mahz.
(Eg: roleplayerguild.com/users/1)
The Username is merely a label on top of that for us to identify each other with.

@NuttsnBolts Okies, that answers a lot of that - thankies.

Think there could be a way to add a list to a persons bio page of their old name? For example - Buddha is now Odin - that is a rather big change if you didn't know him. Maybe not a complete listing but at least for the last six months? Like the Users from before Guild Fall have the thing on their bio page about what their name was there.

Or at least when we go to their page the number of their user is listed in the URL instead of the name. I don't even know my user number, much less the 20+ people I have on black lists that are not allowed back into one of my Rp's. O.o I mean yes I can go through their old posts but that takes forever since there is no page number for their posts pages on the bio page - so you can't jump back further, you have to go it page by page.

@Lady Amalthea A "Previous Username" would be a good option to help with some clarity, but we only allow one change every 3 months so if someone does change they have to hold that name for a generous amount of time.

Not many people will know their number, except @Kangaroo who I have seen brag about being number 7.

I think regardless of how many times someone changes their user name, their ORIGINAL user name should always be on their profile. So if I had my name changed to "Junko Despair" and then "Mayjor Stryker" and then "Magic And Mayhem," My profile would still show my original username, Broken Promise.
