Roleplay Online with RolePlayGateway

So, as the summer continues forging onwards, RolePlayGateway is seeing an absolutely enormous influx of new users, more than we ever have before, and more activity than we ever thought possible. Very soon we're going to surpass the 5000 active member mark, the 200,000 post mark, and close out the most active summer in RolePlayGateway history. In addition to all this, we'll soon be having our first month with 1,000,000 page views, something of a holy grail that the overwhelming majority of websites and communities on the internet only dream of reaching.

So with all these milestones and the site more active than it ever has been before, why don't we do something to give back to this wonderful community we have? We would be nothing without the countless members that come to our site day after day after day and contribute to make this community one of the most active and fastest growing on the net, in addition to being in my opinion the most welcoming. So from this we have decided to officially make August...
