Eternity RPC Board

It'd probably be better discussed in public, yeah. Ideally considerably, to offset the whole "hey guys, this forum's not very active" thing. 
It is true that most of us are older and have boring things to deal with. And it is a primary reason I'm not as active as I could/should/would be. And when I do try to do things, it looks sad and forced. Which is sad. We could try more alternative/personal RPs. Not having to worry about the larger picture and getting screwed over by politics may make it easier to play.
I am fully in support of branching out into other games--spawning guilds and whatever such and linking back to here. I'd do it myself if I actually played more multiplayer games. I'm also for doing more community-y things together, but the problems are exactly as you just said: we don't tend to like the same games at the same time. Of course, there are alternatives...like silly competitions and such. Maybe we should try to play D&D together? #lol (You can go ahead and spawn Eternity guilds and stuff in your games, btw; just be sure to revere me. You might also consider coaxing people to join you?)
For the record, there is vague infrastructure in place for welcoming people from non-NS sources. It could easily be expanded and dedicated forums spawned...if we actually developed a notable presence in other games. Some time ago, I'd considered spawning Eternity in a couple browser-based games I used to play...but I don't actually feel like playing those games anymore, so. (It would probably die fast.)
To answer your question though, I imagine Eternity as a quaint little place where people who like the same odd things can deal with them together. And also worship me.
Btw, an Eternity Minecraft server isn't a bad idea. Do you wanna look into setting one up? I'm not sure how many of us have it though.
General NS recruiting should hopefully start soon. I know I've posted a recruitment TG somewhere...if I can get that done, I can throw money at NS to distribute it for me. That should add /some/ fresh meat. I don't think any of us really have the energy to play diplomat though, so that's likely as much as we'd get out of it. But it'd help.

 | Holy Lanlanian Empire Holy Emperor: Feryn I Prime Minister: Klaus Lofgren | The Holy Lanlanian Empire is a multi-ethnic state based in western Brigidna with territories all across the globe. It is a relic of an older age, an absolute monarchy hidden under a functioning democracy. The empire has historically been the world's leading power, though has long been in decline and was recently overtaken by the Republic of Nyland. Nonetheless, the empire is not an opponent to take lightly. |
