With respect, in previous interactions with moderators, it was recommended that we not create any additional threads beyond those we already maintained. When player requests were made to separate the Congress thread into a Senate and House thread, RP leadership cited this as the reason for not separating the two, as we have sought to stand by that recommendation. Reviewing the OOC can confirm this.

This roleplay has now been in operation for, starting next month, a full three years. During that time, there was no issue with our operating multiple threads, which have been clearly successful, with well over three hundred pages of roleplay in the Congressional and Special Events threads, and more than eighty in the White House. Any of those threads, independently, would seem to exceed the average roleplay in its totality.

Given that no issue has been raised with the number of threads in operation before this point, I would like to formally request that we be allowed to continue to operate as we have for the last three years.

We will, of course, abide by whatever moderator ruling is ultimately made. Given that each has exceeded three hundred pages of activity, I would request that, if we cannot continue to operate as we have, that at least the IC, OOC, Special Events and Congressional threads can be left in operation, with the White House and Archive threads, the latter already largely defunct, closed in order to comply with your request.

If it is preferred that this matter be handled through the official Appeals process, I can move and reformat this appeal as requested.

Thank you for your time.

This is obviously a surprise to all of us, and a difficult time. I understand that many of you are frustrated at this seeming to come out of the blue, but I would urge calm as the situation is sorted out. The matter of multiple threads for a roleplay is currently under discussion in moderation, and I have requested that, until a conclusion is reached, our threads be reopened, so we can continue as we have.

I am optimistic about the outcome. We will, on this coming Fourth, have been in operation for three strong years on this roleplay model, without incident, and I believe that some arrangement will be come to that will allow us to continue. This may take time, but if there are any updates, I will post them.

For the present, we are, by necessity, in a suspension of sorts. The IC thread remains open, as does this one, but we obviously will be unable to proceed with the CBG, Stevenson confirmation, or White House events with the threads locked. For the moment, this is a manageable hindrance. Should it appear that no resolution will be shortly reached, I will look into contingencies. At the moment, I will not assume that we will be forced to reorient the roleplay, but should that come to pass, we will manage it as best we can.

I do not have a concluding sentence of any great worth here, and all of this is somewhat awkward to write regardless, this was not something that I believe any of us expected to happen, or that there was any warning of. I will do my best to work us through it.
