@Announcements (yes I am announcing this thread). We thought it would be a good idea to make a thread where you guys can write your ideas down for what you wanna do or see on the forums. This can include:
Thread ideas
competitions
Playlists
events
The staff will be able to help you with organising and running your ideas if you are struggling to put your idea into action. This will be a thread I keep a close eye on as the ideas suggested will be taken into account.
Some ideas:
1-I have a Spotify family account (6 spots, currently 2 are open). If itās alright, Iād like to create a ShanniiWrites playlist. It can go hand in hand with the YouTube channel. Iād gladly work with whoever runs the channel so we can figure out a schedule
2-Can the YouTube channel do tutorials, discussions, on various writing platforms or talk about/read out loud ShanniiWrites blog? I know ShanniiWrites is busy so she may not want to do it or at least not all, so maybe some members can. It would be cool to have guest speakers (hope that sounds right for this).
3-Iām not sure how or if events are discussed/announced, but maybe we can look for virtual calenders online and add on whatās coming up on the forums. Competitions, contests, role-playing events, when the new play lists, blog posts, YouTube videos are coming out etc.
Sorry if this doesnt go exactly with what was supposed to be discussed. Wasnāt sure where else I could put it
Hey I run the channel and I would be more than willing to work with you if you wanna make a spotify playlist for the forums, infact I welcome it since I donāt have a spotify
takes intense notes
We did have an events calendar but it didnāt work too well so we shall definitely look into this.
OK awesome! Iāll create a profile for the forums, check out the YouTube playlists, and create the Spotify ones. Iāll do this when I get home and send you the link. Not sure where I could post
I hope the videos happen! May take some work and organization, but I feel like alot of people would enjoy it
Aw man to the calendar lol. Was there alot of events on it?
Well thatās the thing, it wouldnāt let us post them
You could make a thread for it āThe Official ShanniiWrites Spotify Playlistā or you could post it onto the YouTube playlist thread or (so many āorāsā) you can post it straight onto the contents page which is pinned in the music section. Youāre rad btw
Make user choice of games to use as profit for the forums? That was what I was getting at when I brought it up in the chat. Itās an idea that might work. At least, until we get our own writers portal up and running.
Maybe there could be a roleplay competition? It would be like the Prompt RP at Any Time, where it would be a free-for-all RP session of a few days, and then afterwards there could be a panel of sorts, with voted RPers-of-the-month or RP staff that select who made the best posts?
Iām going to tag @CrazyCaliope to see what she thinks, since she is the RP mod
I know, I have seen that and plan on voting once I become more familiar with the community. I just think that having one specific thread for the posts and only a few people choosing would make it less of a popularity contest
