Trying to set up a new TV in the modern age is a slow process when it needs to update fifty times before you can even use it lmao

@Marlowe I've been saying that for years and have been met with indifference each time by mod staff.

@Crimson If you both have ghost mode on and friend each other, the system tells you when they're online. It's one way to tell if you're friends with a person.

Well, today's the day I've managed to survive a quarter of a century in this world.

Hello yall! As a huge fan of these books I would love to join.
this is a 8 year old thread btw, i don't think this rp is running anymore lol
Ah. I've just started rewatching X-Men Evolution (haven't seen it since I was a kid, and I remember very little) and have yet to see Wolverine & the X-Men.
Yeah, the cartoons have some moments where they're doing upkeep on the house. I think in Evolution they might mention one of them cooking? I can't exactly remember.
Hm, I wonder if the word Spam registered in anyone's mind. Do they know what Spam means? Is their refrigerator running?
I mean, sure, it probably is better fit for off-topic but let's be honest who really cares if it got posted here
I imagine the X-Men in generally are in charge of upkeep, supported by Professor X's funding along with other sources of monetary gain. If I remember correcyly, the X-Men cartoons, specifically Wolverine & the X-Men and X-Men Evolution, covers some of these in varying detail.

I'm really having a hard time wrapping my head how a thread creator being able to see who is subscribed to their thread being a violation in privacy. Would you be able to provide an example or elaborate more on that thought?
Personally, I think it'd open people up to reverse-stalking. There's probably a better term for that, but I see it something like being @'d just for browsing a thread and having someone question you or try to harass you into joining. I don't need people potentially DMing me or calling me out in a thread because I happen to be subscribed to it.
Also some people just like to keep things private and on the down low. It's why things like ghost mode exists. Heck, since we're on the topic of subscriptions, even Youtube has the option for someone to hide their subscriptions from everyone.

still active, though less than before. welcome back!
^^ this.
The site has seen a slow in activity but it isn't dead dead. People have moved on to other platforms/retired from RP or disappeared entirely, but RPG still has a sizeable population to be considered active.
Had another thought of a feature I'd love to see as a GM/thread owner, it would be nice to be able to see who is subscribed to your thread. To go a step further, in addition to banning a problematic player, it'd be helpful to be able to remove them as a thread follower. It's nice that a ban stops them from being able to respond to the thread, but they'd still be effectively subscribed and following along. If there was a reason to ban them, there's likely a reason enough to not want them following either.
I disagree, tbh. At least for the "see who is subscribed to your thread" part. I don't think it's really anyone's business at all to know what others subscribe to in private, GMs included.
The rest I'm 50/50 on. People could just always follow along anonymously/logged out or bookmark it in their browser's bookmarks. All it'd be doing would be creating excess options and tools that won't stop anyone who gives enough of a shit to keep up with a thread they got banned from. Personally, I think this idea would be better retooled as a "if someone is banned from a thread, then the thread should be hid from them". Like, actually hid hid. Can't access the thread at all, no subscriptions, etc. Of course there would still be the issue of having people being able to browse the thread offline/logged out (or on an alt account), but you could at least close the first loophole by having the mods/Mahz change the RP sections to "members only" sections so that guests won't be able to see someone's writing without an account.
That said, I do believe such an increase in privacy would come detrimental at the cost of the guild's growth. There are quite a few newbies who say they joined the site because they saw X rp happening. We'd be cutting off potential members for the sake of privacy, so it's kind of a win-loss moment, at least in terms to this discussion.
