I only just found this blog area. Before reading this entry I saw the screen cap of RPGChat and wilted. “Was RPGateway once RPGChat!?” I used to be a member there. Lord it was awful for me. I am sorry you had a somewhat negative experience there, as well.

When I was there, there was a lot of tension amongst staff and zero consensus on how to handle matters. Insta-bans were frequent. It was hard to keep people active in threads–or get anyone in a thread at all–if you weren’t interested in guilds. They (including the staff) took debate too seriously and a lot of members felt slighted in the debate forum. I was never banned, but there was always a general feeling that if you weren’t in on the guild stuff and didn’t have a few friends in the mods, you weren’t part of the “clique.”

And I had some reeeeaaaal issues with staff. It’s one of the reasons why I found it so important to tell you how happy I was with your staff, Eric.

I am an active member of the site and yes, it is true, the site is not growing very fast anymore. That doesn’t really concern me as it’s current size means that good roleplays can generally get good people involved but you don’t have so many people that you don’t get to know the active community. If an rp site gets too big it’s filled with 99% bad or just inexperienced roleplayers and since the good ones are so few and far between, getting quality rpers on the same story is close to impossible. As it is, most people I come acrosss in roleplays that I decide to join are fairly experienced.

Also, I’ve noticed that one reason they don’t get involved with other rp sites is becasue most other rp sites are very inactive or they just suck. There are good ones, of course. But if another site is good and RPGC is good, we really don’t need each other.

I do not feel myself burdened by the rules, either. Theya re very straightforward and fairly easy to follow. (Though I disagree with the one decision of your banning. Meh.)

Overall, it is one of the more balanced sites when it comes to quality, activity, and fun that I have been to.

I too think the closed-forum style that the site runs off is a mega turn-off.

First thought:
They ban you for advertisement?

Because OBVIOUSLY you were a walking billboard and completely ruining their membership.

It sounds like RpgChat needs to loosen its belt and lift the burden off their players.
They’re only hurting themselves.

All I have to say is… I was there when RPGChat first began.. The first year and a Half were ran near perfection… Then rules came bearing down. Other people started hogging the site. Soon enough, the site didn’t even have a Chat… (Kinda needed, hence.. RPG… CHAT) I’m known as Maxamillion on there. One of the original RPGC goers… That site as come a long way. No really, from the top of Everest, directly plummeting to the bottom. Tis why I left it.

Aha, that may be what it was - I’ve had the domain of RolePlayGateway set as my title for quite some time. It’d have been nice to receive a request to remove that if it was a problem, and after so long - I never expected this.

Heck, the thing didn’t even link to anything, it was just a title. Meh, whatever. Maybe someone from their staff will contact me about it.

Eric, I kind of guessed you intended nothing malicious, but it is easy to read otherwise. (Google discovered the post where the ban was announced, and that is all the dedication I have to offer for this thing. Maybe you had the url written somewhere, like title or location?)

Treize Khushrenada, I’m not representing rpgchat here. I’m just a random internet person who has talked a bit with Eric and shared an occasional stumble.
