Title: Forum Meeting Place
Post by: Wyldercat on April 30, 2016, 01:29:12 am
Stone Bridge is the go-to place for meeting roleplay hosts and forum users. But it wasn't always SB.
When I first joined, and some time before, it was the N/Z at Flourite. I can't place exactly when it moved, but now N/Z is mostly vacant.

Why do you think it moved? Do you think it might move again soon? Where to?

My theory is that its just sliding down the hill. Soon the forum folk going to be in the water. Save them.

But yeah, I've noticed this. I just think its because there's a lot of activity at SB and the staff need to moderate over there, and most forum members usually follow them over there. If so, I'm not sure why it was at N/Z in the first place, but I definitely remember when N/Z was where all the Kewl Kats hung out.

Huh, I never really knew that ..... Sometimes I mostly meet people in the Tunnels - Bonfire Island nowadays since the places are becoming more and more packed at times. SB is like...the third most packed when it comes to the forum users depending on the time of day and so on and so forth...

When ever I go to SB I see less people there, but if I get on later I see a lot of people. I think it moved because I guess people like trying out different things, and I do remember when N/Z was crowded a lot, but I agree that it is empty.

I remember when N/Z was one of the main gathering areas. I'm not sure I remember how exactly that "meeting place" switched over to the Stone Bridge, but seeing as though it happened, it's certainly possible for it to happen again. I think some of the other staff members were joking about how interesting it would be if everyone suddenly gravitated toward some random tree in the Plains and see what would happen. cx

It always seemed to fluctuate slightly I guess, but I'd say there's always been a substantial population at SB. Even when the N/Z was populated there always seemed to be a few at SB and a lot of mapped RPs at Cape Portal. Now that a lot of RP's have gone mapped though, I've seen more and more people at SB and less at N/Z and cape portal. Maybe that contributed to the switch of meeting places, I dunno. But it's interesting to see were people migrate to. c:

I wasn't around when everyone met up at N/Z, so this is quite a surprise to hear. But hey, maybe they moved because Stone Bridge was better? Idk...

I remember the whole N/Z spot, and it was awesome<3 I believe it switched over to Stone Bridge back in spring of 2014, but I'm not too sure

It's interesting to think about where the next "spot" will be, if it changes again

What's the N/Z spot? O.o in other words, what does it look like?

Basically where the portal to Ficho is. If you look at the minimap/heightmap, you'll notice that those hills take the shape of an N or a Z, and that's how the area was named .0.

I wasn't around, or at least very active in the roleplay community, when the hub was N/Z. However, if there ever were to be a change, I predict it to be the Temple of Dreams portal. It's rather easy to find, and just about everyone who regulars Fluorite knows where it is.

As for the change, it does seem as though N/Z would have been a bit problematic for large groups that like to drag all online members to recruit. People would likely have to all pile on top of each other to stay on the hill if their line was at an angle, and some might just give up and sit down at the base of hill. I believe that they just scooted over to the bridge because it was a more flat area, so larger groups could spread out a bit more and not be all on top of each other.

These are some interesting replies. I honestly think that it would drift more into Ficho, just for convenience, and the fact that more and more people are meeting there that the staff might need to monitor.

Bumping this up! So, what do you all think the "meeting place" is going to be in the new map?
The Grounds?
Kiwimbi?
Eastern Pass?

Everyone seems to be piling up in the grounds, so I assume that's where the meeting place will be.

There's a special little place with water and a crystal in it. I believe it was in Cherika and many of us were there just last night. That may be a place where they may be hanging out now :)

Yeah, I agree with the Grounds being packed, but I think it'll be more like the old Bonfire than SB.
It would be cool for the pool in Chekira, and I'm hoping that more people discover it and hang out there. Reminds me of a fancy hot spring/hot tub, hehe.

Yesterday, I noticed a lot of people by the "butt rock" across from the Eastern Pass portal in Bonfire. Maybe more people will settle there?

Good point, the grounds is extremely packed. I was thinking that maybe the meeting place would possibly change depending on the situation of the map. Too many people in one map, move to another one and so forth. But Cherika Valley is a really nice place for it when it isn't filled with people x3

Forgive me if I'm wrong, but are you talking about the little island with the crystal above a waterfall? I can't remember which map it's in, but it's probably Cherika.
I agree with that, though. It's an "out of the way" area, so us forum floofs could sit and chat in peace.
Maybe the really small island in Bonfire Islands could also be the forum meeting place. However, when I've tried to swim over to it there's always people.
