History of the community for storytelling
« on: January 28, 2004, 01:39:44 am »
Hey all, I could use some community history for telling newbs.  Typing \"The Downfall of LW\" again and again gets boring after a while, ya know?
Anywho, No fanfics please, just \"Community History\".
Thanks.

The key to manipulative bargaining is to ask for something twice as big as what you want, then smile and nod when you are talked down to your original wish. You are still young, my apprentice, and have much to learn in the ways of the force. -UtM

I\'m gonna go interview some Cabali!

Damn, Xordan just had to log off 5 minutes ago. Getting their full history would be interesting.

He said no fan fiction. More like the history of Planeshift.

Hey, Arcane Order does this kind of stuff, right? Why don\'t you people handle the project, and host it on your site and stuff?

Well, considering I\'ve been around for more than 3 years, I thought I could give my share...

Okay... It all started like this - and I\'m afraid it hasn\'t moved one inch, except that now we can collect crystals, and we have more people than when it all started.

That\'s the most detailed PlaneShift story I\'m able to write at this point of day (9am), so you\'ll have to enjoy it until someone takes the time to write a more detailed one, however I\'m not sure that\'s going to be easy. :)

Edit: Btw! I forgot to add that we got a new forum a little more than two years ago!

I would have begun by:
\"Once upon a time, there was a little city where everybody was an ugly dwarf, who couldn\'t even run...\" :P

uhmm.... if you put it that way, I\'m pretty sure he meant the history of Yliakum, not Planeshift....
so no, histories about collecting crystals and everyone being a dwarf aren\'t the right thing
There are actually stories born from roleplaying and various actions that took place here. Something more interesting than hearing about new forums :|
which is actually non-roleplay, and I know he wants roleplay stories

Exactly, Draklar you hit the nail on the spot!

I know Draklar, my post was more a \"reply\" to Grono\'s post.
