Firstly, I'm being hypocritical here. I used to always tell you guys last year that a site doesn't truly die until people start talking about it being dead, because that drives other people away. But, I want to make something work.
Jen and Steve put alot of work into this site and to have them just disappear without a word is weird. I'm thinking, while they are away or whatever, we start the talk of a new site. I've been reading Ryan's comments in the Cbox, how you need a balanced interaction between the staff and the players. I think the thing that made RTK Battlefields work was the amazing dedication of the staff which then inspired us, the players, to keep coming back. Yeah sure, the site died in the end, but man, we had some ridiculously awesome battles on there and I'd love to see something like it again.
My personal feelings are as follows, I cam out of retirement because I was shown this site by someone and after seeing all you guys here, I immediatley came back because I had high expectations from the site and I knew it would be awesome. It has been for a small amount of time as well, but I'd love to see at least one more site that is on par with RTK Battlefields. We need a dedicated staff team, and a community of members who first and foremost ignore the garbage that is hurled onto them by other people (I.E Anonymus wankers). Second of all, if there is a problem with the site, we discuss it like a community. Cause guys, when it comes down to it, the only reason we are here is to have fun and use our creativity. Plus, the aspect of having all you guys here makes it double as fun, I would much rather RP with people I know like Adam or Justin etc than join a random retarded site with unknown users.
This is my two cents.

And Mikey...
Jen and Steve have a lot going on with their lives, considering we all know that they're engaged. Having them do all this staff work is probably torture. Don't blame them for all this shit. Even if it's a 4 day absence.
Although we can place them at fault for giving no one absolutely no mod powers whats so ever.
I liked Adam's private LOTR rp =P. Invite only, maybe we could do something like that? >.> Or if Ryan wants to step up and make another kickass site sure. Not to put all the pressure on him or anything ^^

We also need something different, it's always ROTK or Fantasy RP. I've had some ideas but i dont know wether to commit.
Still, we shall have to see

Was our site that good 0_0? If you guys want, Dark and I could make another site like we did before. That mean I will have to find another skin for the site, one that matches our RTK theme this time.
Its all on Dark and our Staff again. There are things I like on this site tho. If there are rules or features that you guys like on this site just let Dark and I know. Still, we have to get permission from Jen and Steve.

If anything though we cant have two sites running, it will simply divide people

The ROTK Scene is half the fun though dude. Everyone wants to be their favourite Dynasty Warriors character! But I'm all ears for other ideas. As long as it is military.

lol - I am Vash on RTK: Battlefields. I was the one trying to keep everything in order and making sure the codes on the site stay in good shape. Pretty much. I was the man behind things, watching every single one of you. If I saw a problem I let Dark know. Dark and I were the ones who made the site, I put that flashy skin on it. Everyone directly is effected by the look of the site. So if it looks bad then they wont really even try looking at it. If it looks good tho, organized, ect. Then hell they will give it a try. Add in the old family members of our sites and you have your old crew or friends or brothers or sisters back on another site kicking ass once again. It really is not hard opening back up RTK: Battlefield right now, but mostly you guys would rather start back OVER/ AGAIN! Rather than keep going from where you left off. © 2007 V & R Production Co. Vash & Ryan Production Co. All of us have ideas. Those people who have ideas we damn well invite them. No matter what. LOAE I think thats what it was called, made by Jorge was one of the best sites I been on. I think he and Alex, maker of BOTK and of course Jen were the ones they pumped me up to make my own site and continue RPing. Throw in Hard-Ass Justin, Brutal-Ass Lyle, Smart-Ass Mikey, and many more people, like Brain also, And you will already have a good site. A site is not good without good RPers like those above. These people are the ones that carry our ROTK sites to its peaks, and then like Adam, drops admin position and leave it to fall. Dark was doing all the hard work on RTK: Battlefield, other mods were also, but mostly Dark. He could not keep up with all of yall posts, and I was too busy with the Marines, so I couldnt help out. Maybe before I go to boot camp I will make one more site.

Now, look, the RoTK scene has been around as long as any of us. It ain't even close to dead.
That said, I came out of retirement for this particular site. IF, and that's a big IF, IF this site dies, then I may or may not retire again, it all depends on if a site can hold my interest. If you guys can get one going, I'm sure a few of y'all can get a hold of me.
I'll keep coming back to this site, until it's 6 months buried, though. Let's not count it out just yet, huh?

Retirement, i know 3 people who have done it. Dan (Anubis/Zione/What ever else he goes by now) and Alex and Steve (Ultimate Warrior). It alll seems to much like a chore now, keeping up with the 2000 word posts etc. I haven't enjoyed it since ROT4K (which still exists. shadowdragon999.proboards24.com lol i still remember the URL), and perhaps Forbidden Era (though to a lesser extent).

Wow Holy Shit If rping was that easy these days I would be a much less stressful man. I never was on that site anyway. I'm up for whoever makes the next rp, fantasy, harry potter, military. Whatever.

Well, I have a site thats almost ready, but it's not RO3k, so I don't know who would be interested. I was working on it for about a week or so before this shit happened, and its just about ready. It's kind've a fantasy/military thing. But the troops before each battle will be assigned, so no personal troops.

Best idea for anyone here to find a place to rp is to branch out and find other communities, as this one has been dead for far too long. There are thousands of different groups out there, including separate rotk ones, just have to look for them, boys and girls.
Time to stop beating that damn horse, it's dead.

Any recommendations Lyle? I wouldn't mind branching out. In all seriousness, I wouldn't mind joining a Marvel/DC kind of RP place; especially after all the Superhero talk.
Also, it actually really saddens me how things in this site could fall apart so easily. I admit I may have caused slight tension with the Shu Camp, but man, it really sucks how haywire things went with this site...Maybe coming out of retirement wasn't that good of a idea.

It's why I'm not bothered, I have plenty of places to rp away from this BS community of quitters and no hopers
