Upcoming P2TM Rebrand: Discussion, Question, Input, Concerns
Posted: Fri Apr 02, 2021 3:31 pm
Hello everyone.
As some of our long-time users might have noticed, things have changed a lot on the RP scene, and there's been quiet concerns for a while now that the old tools are not providing adequately for a modern roleplayer's needs. In particular, increasing insulation of player friend groups and an inability to easily navigate or understand the purpose of various RP tools have been a frequently cited concern.
This is why we're excited to announce that P2TM will soon be getting an overhaul! We have plans that will hopefully reinvigorate the community, foster communication, and make it easier to exchange ideas and advice about RP.
But before we put things into motion, we want to hear from you. Please feel free to share here any suggestions, questions, concerns, criticism, or other input that you would like to see addressed.
So far, we (the mentors) are strongly leaning towards the following:
- Retire the Restaurant, Cafe, and Advertisement threads in favor of consolidating them into a universal P2TM Community Discussion Thread. This would be done with the aim of fostering more interaction between community members instead of splintering them into different hubs and getting more eyes on future games.
- Better organization of resources in the OP of the new PCDT. This would include clear, bold, upfront links to the rules of both NS and the RP community at large, Help and Feedback requests, a list of RP guides, a regularly updated spotlight area for advertisements for upcoming games as well as Exceptional Posts made within existing games, and others!
