Not sure about that, because the front page is full of magical and fantasy RPs. I've never really liked the fantasy and the magical genre across books, video games, movies and NS RPs. I don't know exactly why. Medieval times as a theme definitely gives you something to work with but having a solely medieval theme doesn't work very well unless you really know what you're talking about. I just don't think magic is easy to introduce to a modern setting and becomes completely ridiculous in any other period.

Consider: Pirates in WWII-era warships. I'm thinking the logic behind it is World War II literally ended the world, and for 'Some Reason' most of the world's continents are uninhabitable a certain distance from shore.

Although potentially impractical, I really like the idea. A modern Golden Age of Piracy. Warship captains who literally go rogue from their national navies to go join the highly profitable life as a modern pirate with all of the cutting-edge weaponry. It's not like a nation would actually go after a missile-armed cruiser of their own. Although WW2 or WW1-era battleship pirates is a fantastic idea that I entirely get behind and would DEFINITELY apply for, it might not be practical on an international scale. If it is confined to let's say the transatlantic routes with Greenland as the refuelling station, it could work. Another solution would be to bring it to the modern day with nuclear-powered warships that have no realistic operational range and can go on for years without refuelling.

Yeah. Make it happens in seas where the piracy happened the most.

Transatlantic. In the Battle of the Atlantic, U-boats vs Allies in WW2, there was an area between the UK and the USA called the Mid-Atlantic Gap where land-based aircraft on both ends couldn't fly out to and engage enemy submarines in. Although this was eventually solved by auxiliary aircraft carriers, there could be a twist where ASW technology didn't develop and left the gap where liners and freighters still fall prey to surface pirates.

Is it alright to release a version two of an RP if you think you can make it more successful and more popular?

Unless you have permission from the original creator, you'll get smacked with plagiarism. Even if the original creator no longer uses the site. You might be able to get away with making a similar RP, but no, just taking one without asking is a huge no-no.

If you're talking about a RP that you originally made, it generally depends on the circumstances. Mods will usually allow your RP a second chance if continuing to post in the original thread would be gravedigging at this point, but if it becomes clear that no one is interested in this game (i.e., the other threads also quickly die), you'll be asked to essentially stop spamming the forum with the same unwanted game. There have been other instances where the Mods granted a new thread, such as the old one having become too toxic and the players wanting a fresh start, but these are rather unique situations.

In essence, I would ask the Mods to review your specific circumstances.

Go for it, Fam.

It's okay to have a third or fourth OOC, if you mean making a new one once the old OOC hits a certain page limit, but not multiple OOC threads at the same time.

If you do go with it, then I wish ya good luck.
