Hola once more everyone and welcome to “Magic Suggestion Fun TIIIIIIIIMEEEE!!!!”…*ahem*. Anyhow this is all about Ulterior RP’s. I think opening a small section in which RP’s that having nothing to do with BS or in fact Bleach at all might be fun. This would allow people who might enjoy a concept that would never fly as a full fledged forum to indulge and let members who have gotten to know each other to continue to RP in a different universe (it might also attract new members).
Now I am not suggesting any changes to the central RP just that another section could work. You would essentially make a Random RP section where we can export our current characters (or even new ones so long as they were not exported into the core RP) in completely different forms into a myriad of member made “short RP’s” that have nothing to do with the normal RP and can be made for any genre with any sort of rules so long as they don’t break the core RP rules as well (Fantasy, Horror, whatever floats your boat so long as you don’t cross it over into the real RP.)
Anyway I could go on but I think that pretty much sums it up. Why don’t we get some discussion on this and at least give our thoughts. I know for one I have a gajillion RP concepts but don’t want to open my own RP since 99/100 forums fail so why not have fun with the people who I am already RP’ing with?
((P.S: Sorry if this post came off half-baked I’m sort of throwing it together stream of consciousness style.))

Harmony and myself have discussed this and agreed upon its merit, we will try and implement the idea ASAP but we are both under heavy work-loads and stressful situations, bear with us.
Thanks for the stellar idea GK!

This is such an awesome idea...I'd love to set up an RP that takes place in the RP universe, but has no Canon effect to the current RP.
Basically my idea is:
An imensely powerful being lays waste to Soul Society, causing fear and panic among Seireite and Rukongai alike. (This being just as strong as the Commander-General) A small army, about twelve strong accompany him. They are also very strong, and have unnatural abilities. (Think Captain level in power)
I know what you're thinking, it sounds similar to the Bount arc in the Anime, but I would just love to play this out...

Oh I agree there are plenty of ideas. I had considered the idea of a more visceral and violent Bleach universe as well as a horror plot that has nothing to do with Bleach at all.
While we are on this topic since Harm and Gahrok liked it I think it might be important to consider the plot preparation. In the core BS people can just make post randomly because chances are they are going to get at least one other to take part. However because in these alternate RP's there is no guarantee that anyone will actually join (For instance I'd love to make an Ar Tonelico RP but with 1 out of every 1000000 people actually knowing what that is it wouldn't be a smart move without educating first) it would be a good idea to open a Plot Recruitment section for this alternate area itself. Then set a rule that says at least 3 people have to be interested in the concept before it can come into actuality so it doesn't clutter the board.
Just a thought (P.S: Yes that was my blatant plug to try and make a few people read about Ar Tonelico before I try desperately to start an RP about it.)

I'm not sure we want too over-complicate it like that, but when we get it too it (it may be a bit down the road so don't get anxious) we'lll see.
We'll definitely let everyone incorporate all their own ideas though. Just personallly I dont think all that recrutiment stuff is necessary, we'll see though, as I said it may be a bit in processing.

Hm well the only reason I suggested it is because if every single person makes every RP they want chances are you will have a board filled with a hundred threads and maybe two or three that actually see normal usage. But ya, whenever *goes and stares at wall*.
