Then why are you still here?

I already said I'm not leaving. I'm bringing up the discussion.

Seriously, what is your problem? You're so hostile. To, like, everyone. You don't seem to able to take a joke and like taking things to a bad conclusion. I honestly am not trying to insult you. I'm just saying. And if it's offensive, I'm sorry. But I've been here since the beginning, and it just seems like activity has very consistently gone down since the peak in mid-Aurentina.

But everyone else said the activity was fine.

That was a genuine question. If it offended you, I apologize.

Ugh, if you miss your own ungodly creation that much than do something about it and stop complaining.

Is this the same mafia golden age that ruined the RP for a lot of people?

I mean, I know activity will pick up plenty during the summer. But in the long run. If we're going to go days without a single post on half of our threads? Debate isn't constant and swirling? The opposition is nowhere near equal to the government? This is just sad.

I'm not saying I'm leaving. I'm saying it might be time to think about letting the NSG Senate die. It had an amazing run; but it might be over, for now.

It looks to me like the RP has a lot of life to it if the NDP grows and keeps expanding. But if it does die, I have an idea for a spinoff based on crime groups in Calaverde.

I don't. It was fun while it lasted, but if I wanted to keep playing a criminal, I would have.

First of all, weren't you here during the mafia's time? And second, I find it hard to believe the mafia actually "ruined" the RP for people. It gave them something to legislate. It gave the police something to do. And it affected no one that didn't want to be affected by it. So, yeah.

I'm still here because it is something to do, albeit very slowly. The activity is quite slow, even if people believe it is "fine."

Another genuine question. That's rather sad that I have to label them.

My friends on here generally solely frequent II. And most of them have CTE'd since 2012. So yeah, I don't really have anyone to invite. I've written two bills and gotten involved in a new party, I'm obviously trying.

For one, I can complain if I fucking feel like it, Lykens.

For two, I wasn't complaining, I'm saying it might soon be time to think about giving this extremely long-lasting RP a peaceful burial.

Why would we do that though when there's plenty of activity and plenty of people. It's way too soon to be even thinking about that.

Well, the rest of us don't feel that way.

There really isn't that much activity, Beta. Like, before I posted, how many people had posted on the lobby today? Any?

I don't know, I guess I just miss the high level of activity and fast-paced environment of Aurentina. Shit actually got done, now all we do is fight over the speaker. A bill is written every few weeks, and that's about it. Kind of sucks.

What happened to Kour?

Just because people aren't constantly posting in the lobby doesn't mean there isn't activity. Bills are being written constantly and the speakership issue is over now. Kour had to go away and do stuff in his RL. Honestly, it seems that your the only one who's unhappy with the way things are going right now. As I said before, it's unrealistic to expect the fast-paced environment of Aurentina back.
