Short and simple. I've tried many methods to get this site back up on its feet, but nothing seems to work. -_-; Any ideas, mates?

-shrug- Well, my site started to fall apart a few months ago, and we basically rebuilt it. Just, y'know, started completely fresh and got rid of all the unactive threads and members. I doubt that would work for this particular forum, but I'm drawing up a blank. D8

Be there, done that. It lasted for a few months, but then it went poof again since people didn't wanna RP.

Well, for one, email everyone and tell them to GET THEIR PHANIES BACK HERE.
Then do... more stuff. It got inactive for a reason. Find out why and then fix it.

Well, that depends. What is this place supposed to be doing? Apparently, it wasn't doing it, so people stopped showing up. So just do whatever it is you're supoosed to be doing.

Ummm.... How do I say this?
The boards on Neopet work because everyone knows that they can't take their sweet time to type a post without making a lot of people mad. That's how the majority of those boards are made. They're meant to be one day things, and so everyone hurrys and posts because they know that if they don't the board is going to die and thier fun is going to end. Forums are long term, so there really is no need to hurry up and post and people can take their time. But that can also lead to people forgetting that they need to post or them just putting it off.
So, I guess what I'm trying to say is that there needs to be like a system to monitor people so that they don't take weeks (or in our case months) to post so that the roleplay can progress smoothly. Those that make any sense at all?

That's actually a REALLY good idea, Ari. I had one of the former members here try to help me with that, but then she went inactive. ._.
Who's active enough to take on the challenge?

I can easily offer up my services to monitor, Phoe. Not only that, but I am skilled in HTML and all that jazz. More useful I suppose.
I am always on the intertubes, because it's pretty much my life.

It's good to be back...wow, nothing has really changed! xD Even Phoe's avatar is the same. I guess its just that awesome of an avatar though. I definitely noticed the nice layout changes though. =D
I haven't seriously RPed in awhile, and most of my characters have been retired...I decided not to be the chaotic hurricane of a thousand characters anymore, and I all I've RPed recently is gifted boarding school RPs on GaiaOnline, so I'm more than a bit out of practice. I've recently been more interested in writing (mostly bad fanfiction) and I've been working on a plotline for an actual, non-fanfic story, which is now under the category of "maybe one day this story will be good enough to send to a publisher if I work on it for ten more years". I mostly use the characters from said story as RP charries nowadays. Maybe I'll elaborate on them in a more appropriate place.
Probably way more than a sufficient post. Anyway, maybe I can get back into RP mode...I kind of miss that craving to RP I used to have.

Ooohhhh.... An epic email? *rushes over to her inbox*
And... I'm kinda sorry, but I don't really think I can help very much here. I've had a site die, did the whole 'restart from scratch' thing, then sortof forgot about it so I didn't know if it would have worked or not ^^;
But you don't need to convince me to RP, I'm craving a nice, big decent RP at the moment anyway.

If it wasn't for the fact that you copy-pasta that so many times that Neomail is still on there.
But in all seriousness, I need some time to regather my ruins of RP so I'll post tomorrow.

I knew SOMETHING had to be done with that. I looked through it twice but didn't catch the neomail part. ; Yuck.
