Well I would be willing to do so, I don't mind starting a new thread where my char runs across yours.
And then if the others show up again, I don't mind running two threads and marking what posts are for what thread.

Alright, that's everyone. Some of these people (including our illustrious GM) have been missing for a little over or under a week but that is not an excuse as the roleplay has been going on since before they went missing leaving them ample time to post. Most of them, however, were last seen either yesterday or today and yet seem to have forgotten about this roleplay. Quite possibly this is partially due to having too many people (some joining after the roleplay started!) and partially due to our GM being rather lax (and missing) when it comes to keeping everyone focused.

I have said it before and I'll say it again: Don't join (or start) an RP unless you're absolutely sure your schedule is clear and you won't disappear for over a week.

I totally agree to this.

Actually, I had checked and when I saw the room list was created for the "dorms" and didn't see my character's name on it (which i checked for a few days and then took myself off notifications) I figured they wanted a smaller RP. So I didn't post because I didn't know I was still included. So before you say things like that maybe should have made it clear or asked the head of the roleplay to make it clear (but since you are taking charge I am calling you out) for everyone that they were still to post. Since I had no idea I was still part of it when the room list was created.

I'm not gonna pull the what would my character do card but my guy is sleeping and his alarm is set to whenever the classes start. Also not to be offensive but this feels like Side Gaming but for role plays. You are entitled to your opinion but there are many other solutions. If you can't wait for a GM post then I believe that you don't need to be in this to (Again not trying to be rude just laying out the options) Aswell as what if something happened to them. What if a family member died. At that point, they are not entitled to say anything. Though again that would be preferred there are certain things people just Don't like to talk about.

well I get that to and honestly I understand that things can come up from time to time in a person's life that are unexpected and/or are much more important then this, and that it's impossible to fully commit and I should clarify I didn't mean if your not 100% sure don't join. what I did mean though is, if you know you will get rather busy soon please hold off. I also meant that if things do get so busy latter on that you don't have the time or muse to post at least once a week with regularity, it would be nice if you'd let other people know you need to take a break so that those of us who aren't so busy aren't sitting around doing nothing while our chars are tied up waiting for a reply that's going to be a very long time coming. even a quick "sorry I gotta pause for a while" would be better then just ghosting us. Lest then I know to pause that thread and get my character involved with someone else who is more active until that person has time and muse to rp again. I'm not going to be upset at you for having a life, I just ask if it's going to get in the way of our rp let me know so I'm not eagerly waiting for something that could take weeks or months to happen, and instead park it on the back burner until your ready again.

humm maybe before we make any more assumptions about who is and isn't active in this rp we should ask everyone. since it sounds now like there are more people who would be active if they had something to do or where better informed that they where accepted into the rp then it would seem by looking a the ic section.

I'm still around! I can't say I blame people for slowing down in participation. It's a particularly hard hit when the GM of all people disappears-- makes it much harder to keep up that optimism to keep going. My post itself was a setup for an interaction with Japanime, who's character was my character's roommate, so I've been waiting for a reply there this whole time. While I completely agree with the statement you made at the end of your post, I'm going to hope and assume you aren't condemning participants for their sudden inactivity when in reality this roleplay had already begun to crumble once our GM never even made a post aside from the roleplay's introduction. If you are, however, ridiculing others, I feel it's completely unnecessary-- in the least rude way possible. Like kicking a dead horse. If anything, there's possibly only one person to blame here, and we still don't even know their situation or reason as to why they've suddenly become inactive.

Anyway, I think the best course of action here is to assume this roleplay is finished, and take your characters elsewhere or continue mini-threads with your characters (Which is what I'm assuming Snow, Tasia and Latitha are doing), or recycle them for another roleplay you may be interested in at some later point in time. Myouri is going back to the drawing board.

It was amazing seeing everyone's characters and reading posts while it lasted! You're all very creative people, hopefully we'll cross paths again in other roleplays as time moves forward. Thank you!

this is exactly why I'm saying we need to actually see who's still actually here and just waiting for something to happen. before we declare characters or even the rp dead. and maybe see if we can work something out to clear what appears to be a log jam. I don't know about anyone else but for me I'm not upset with anyone as well I don't got any information to suggest that the dm or anyone else knew they would get busy. So I'm not blaming anyone for anything. And being that I also just now noticed that it has only been a week since I had made my last post, it seemed longer but I rechecked the time stamp and it wasn't so I'll admit I may of been hasty in thanking that people have gone awol and I'm sorry if I hurt anyone because of that. so as I said I think we need to get together and figure out who's all still here and waiting for something to do and who's actually is working on posting something soon. and who needs a break but does plan on coming back and then finally who is actually gone at least for the time being.

That makes sense

You're right. I probably shouldn't be here. Honestly, I'm too tired and short on patience to participate in any roleplay really. So I'll just be leaving. Hope we all meet again (maybe Fox can reach his true potential before I kick him over to the future Cartoon bin).
 
Sooo this is embarrassing. This whole time I thought the rp died as soon as it started. I never received ANY notification about someone else posting so it gave me the impression that it never picked up. I'm extremely sorry and understand I should have just checked anyway.
 
I have a quick question, what do you y’all think I should do if I’ve been waiting for my dorm mate to respond to our interaction but they haven’t? Should I just move on? I’ve been conflicted on this but I didn’t want to be rude..

I think you should move on. If they haven’t responded you have no obligation to wait.

I feel you, it seems I'm in the same spot with my character.

how about we just start a new thread where our chars meet up. and if the people we where playing with come back then we can decide how we want to handle it.

That sounds alright for me, I just felt bad if I did end up moving on that I might offend them for not waiting.
 
I know what you mean, but it's not like we didn't give them ample time to get around to making the post or at least tell you what was going on right?
 
sorta, the dm is mia. but there's still people around who are looking to play. so I'd say put your character on to the character board, and let us know and we'll see what we can do for ya.
