Okay, we want the Basement alive again? Then we need to tear the place down. Move the RPG's back into the Comics forums or give us a board among the Community section. And no more dividing between 'Marvel', 'DC', 'Other' and every other thing under the sun. There's two sections: 'RPG's running' and 'Archive'.
This section of the Hype is buckling down under its own weight. An 'Approval' board? No more, I say. You've got one section and you put your RPG's in there. Who cares if it gets a little messy? We don't have OCD (okay, maybe a little). Throw those RPG's onto one board. You've got an old thread? Archive that *****.
Every RPG gets two threads: OOC and IC. IC gets a sticky. OOC threads live and die by their own popularity. No more 'general rules' and no more general organisation. Someone wants to propose an RPG? Let them do that, in a different thread, if they wish. It isn't popular? It'll fall down the page. It is popular? Get it up and running.
We've been so focussed on the minutia, we've lost sight of the big picture. This whole structure needs to be torn down. Put the debris in another section (preferably the Comics part). Call it 'Comic RPG's'. Then you've got people thinking: hey, that seems pretty active, what is it about? What's happening there? Cross pollinate that *&^%, because it's getting incestuous down here.
We've been down here too long and we need to be back up there.
