POLL: Potential Merger?

[Vero]

Sorry if I wasn't clear, I made an account on RPGZone yesterday and I had trouble, it also asked what was my phone number was and I do not own a phone but that was only one problem, the other was that I made my account name 'Jekeb' and I thought I kept 'Vero' so I couldn't log on until I remebered.

[Tearhex]

Im in so many places at once - it doesn't really matter to me ^w^
And i'd always be Tear~

But what we could do, is we could summarize (or link because once it's on the internet, it'll be there for AWHILE) the old rp's so that we could continue them there.

that would be some manner of er.. solution?

while i was reading this all - it was kinda.. sentimental.. if you know what I mean?
Im sitting here in class, at the end of the semester, doing what I do everyday - sitting here posting instead of working.
Globow got me to join at the very Beginning of the semester! so, now that the semester is now... OVER it sadly seems like this is ending as well...
Depression~

It would be really sad to leave everyone, and to leave the people who I've gotten to claim as friends over the past few months behind. I know that some people don't wanna go, and would rather stay - and that's fine by me - im just say im'a be sad.

my internet buddies are all I really have, kinda... like my family.
So this conversation is rather depressing.
Again - I don't mind the people's decisions for who are staying behind - but this idea, of getting a new bigger family..
it sounds so exciting! more people to bug! more people to talk with! more people to share silly stories with, more people to make silly stories with!

well, I think im ranting now....
So, im'a stop now - for now.

But again, you guys are like my family in a weird way, and in my opinion, this will be fun~

[b]@ Glowbo[/b] - I know how you feel about this. On one hand, you can't just abandon your family, and on the other hand, it's been rather tiring as is. I've moved from the Spriter's Resource, to the Virtual Console Archives, to VC-Reviews, to Nintendo Life, to Mercurious, to Mercurious 2, to Mercurious again, to AJOLWTTA, to Mercurious AGAIN, to RandumbCrew forums, to David Choi Music Forums, to Xevious, to Mercurious AGAAIIIIIIN, to ZEJ MK I (AJOLWTTA boards), and then again to this ZEJ, and to a point, Mercurious. [i]AGAIN[/i]. It's very tiring, but I pull through just knowing there'll be some familiar faces. As I said, we don't have to just up and abandon ZEJ because of a merge with RPG Zone. Think of it more as an "advanced affiliation" than anything else. We're simply pushing people right now to check out RPG Zone, and while ZEJ may see some lower activity, we certainly will [b]not[/b] be dead.

[b]@ Tear[/b] - From what I've seen, you're an excellent member and I'd be glad to see you come with us to see what RPG Zone is about, and potentially bring down a few of our RP's which are just in "Sign-Up Mode" right now. Just keep in mind, we're not jumping ship. We're just visiting, crossing here and there.... It's like a rousing game of CityVille. Except without the gimmicks. Well, some of them but not all of them.

[b]@ Vero[/b] - As Shadow said, you can always just type in some random numbers. The phone number will never be called by anyone, though they may use it for "survey" purposes every once in a while, in which case the owner of the phone couldn't track you anyway. That could prove tedious however-- it's best if you just refresh and try again, hopefully without Phone # issues this time.

[Shadow]

That's exactly what we were planning, you could start the SU Thread of your respective Roleplays, copy-paste the Applications, and summarize the lost progress of the Roleplay in the actual RP Thread.

And I understand what are you saying. Departure is hard since you ALWAYS grow attached to something, subconsciously or not. That's why the poll was made, to see who will move to a new domain, and to see who would stay. In that case, apparently two people. But really, don't you everyone think its going to be exactly the same over RPGZ than it was at ZEJ? If everyone decides to move, it would really mean the exact same community with a new home, new people to meet, new Roleplays and a new administration--mine as the Head Administrator, Nate as the Assistant Administrator, and crazE as the Global Moderator--as Jonno said.

Essentially everything Shadow said. With this apparent "archive" of sorts, we can easily FULLY merge into the RPG Zone community without hurting anyone or anything. The only thing standing between you guys and what's essentially the new (and final) ZEJ is a simple registration form. Isn't the experience of meeting new friends faster worth it? It'd be a lot more fun, in my opinion, to see us at RPG Z(EJ)one (cwutididtharteehee). Hell, I'd even be willing, as my act as ZEJ's "representative assistant admin" to archive everything we've ever done here into each ZEJ returning roleplay. It wouldn't be all too hard - I've had experience before with this in both the Ultimate Tournament and Sandbox Mode. We can easily pull this off guys; it'll all be worth it.

[The Brawlinator]

Well, I still think I'll stay here on ZEJ, because I like it here. Maybe I'll change my mind and go to RPGZone, but for now, I'll just stay here. Crossover will continue here, on ZEJ, which will hopefully be enough to at least make some of you guys visit occasionally.

[Knightmare]

Eh, I don't know. I don't really want to move, but at the same time, it seems like that's what is going to wind up happening. It's not roleplay progress that I'm concerned about, it's being at a new forum with people I don't know too well. I'm certain I'll get along with people (I usually do) but I still am apprehensive to the idea of meeting new people.

...Moving and changing around so much is very tiring, and I'm not sure that I really am up for yet another forum change.

[-J-]

[b]Honestly, it doesn't seem like a merger is truly what we need right now. Everyone seems to be okay with our current set-up,[/b] but in the end, this is more-so an advanced affiliation more than anything else. I'll make my choice in what's essentially up to the staff of ZEJ now, and that's to stay with ZEJ mainly while also posting at RPG Zone for now. It seems like it's for the best.

[Glowbo]

Well, since you put it that way... I guess it's all good then.

I'd rather keep hanging around here and Mercurious, but I suppose I'll join over at RPGZone and spend some of my active time there. Who knows, maybe I'll bring my Pokeville RP over to RPGZone sometime. As long as ZEJ isn't left out in the cold (and guess what? It's winter time right now, haha epic irony ) then I'll be happy. Remember what I said earlier:

I'll follow you guys wherever.

I meant it. (No, not in the creeper sense, I meant it in the 'friends' sense, so don't get any ideas.)

[Tearhex]

sounds like a wonderful idea~

and Glowbo. that was THE most adorable thing I have ever heard you say mon amie.

and as he said - I will follow you guys wherever.

(ahh that's still adorable ~ just Merveilleux~)
