I've talked to various other members of the board and generally, we have two problems: lack of activity and not enough members around to really get some plotting and RP done.
For activity and renewed interest (which leads to more RP), I have been thinking up of a RP idea where we create clubs. Any kind of club, as long as they're not ridiculous and fit Clannad's theme (think clubs people have in real life. Games, Book, Drama, Music, Fashion, Movies, Art, History, etc). Each club would have its leader and each club would "compete" against the other for popularity and members. These clubs allow people to interact and develop off of each other. The focus would be back on the school but as time passes, it would branch outward and flow throughout the entire town. The students at Hikarizaka High are the future; I think we really need to show it.
Now, that would help with activity...hopefully. Any kind of new, forward idea would. It can still be about character development and growth, but I think more of a direction would be good. It doesn't have to be a lot of clubs at first (since we don't have enough members to fill them up) but hopefully if we all try to be active and go with this idea or something else entirely (just do something) we will attract more members which would allow for more clubs so they're not all empty.
Now the second problem: lack of members. I've advertised a little bit on sites, which doesn't always bring members. I think if we strive to be a little more active and get something going on, people might be more inclined to join instead of taking a peek and deciding it's not worth it. I'm not blaming anyone here, it's just a thought. I can't 100% explain why this or that happens.
Any thoughts, suggestions, ideas? All appreciated and all help the site.
