Captain Mode Kurai: Alright.
I have a batch of bad news and good news to share with a specific group which i call Crew members within Ria High.
I think i'll start with the Bad News.
The Bad news about you Crew members. A specific number of you have greatly dissapointed me recently these days on accomplishing a simple favor which i requested in my last announcment. I believe i totally requested that all crew members to keep your posts here in the announcment thread relevant to Ria High announcments, and if you had any everyday rants or such you can take it to the general.
My decision on this recently was to keep Ria High in a very proffesional like manner, which helps our members ease through the reading in the announcment board instead of actually having to search through rants about 'jello' or 'schoolife' or 'stress'. They themselves have enough trouble as it is with schoolwork and such. SO why should they spend more time trying to find announcments relavant to Ria High.
I'll compromise though.
But the face graphic which i have requested every crew member to use during their announcment is a must.
Neways compromising.
From now on if you have a Rant to say, and for some reason you can't resist posting it up here in the announcment thread. put
[rant] [/rant] brackets around it. For Example:
[rant] A Katamari rolled up my gurlfriend[/rant] and then you can go off about RIa highy news.
You can also use it in a sense of what its ranting about for example on Joy's most recent post:
[CanadianMarchSnowRant] Nee waa...Mission get-lil-sis-into-anime..complete..ish. XD Shes been watching Futakoi with me. An awesome anime,filled with lots of kawii twins. Gosh I wish I had a twin..but then again could the world take another one of me?? XD If I have twins Im gonan call them either ella and Joy..or Lulu and Lala. XD
People still making fun of my drastic change to my hair. XD I can barly put it up in a pony tail...
...*w00ts**March break almost here!!...Boing mountain!!! Hot snowboard dudes. Snuggling up with hot coco near the fire. Yes!!!!!! [/CanadianMarchSnowRant]
PLease do not try to keep your announcments as pure rants.
I think this is a reasonable request, from your dear lazy Ria High captain himself. Seeing that i usually request not much from you all.
So if i see anymore Announcments in such that are just: rants, or without face graphics, i will delete them As soon As i see them. And i reserve the right to remove your Crew status.
One simple request Y'all.
Alright then,
The Good news part
I have been recently questioned about my selection of crew members and if they are doing any work at all.
That just generally erks me.
Sure, My crew member have done little to nothing at all. But do you know why? Cause i don't usually give them work at all. Yes. Despite being the re-known lazy captain, i have been doing probably a vast majority of the work here at Ria High. Don't Ask why, but i just do so. I enjoy Ria High work and i am pretty selfish about it.
So why even have Crew?
My vision on the Crew... is more or less, People who i have chosen who i believe carry out my vision on Ria High the best.
People who i know understand what i want Ria high to become. They are more or less the people i can trust to RP well (exception with Chibi_Chise) without even reading their RPs. They are the people who i know, know the rules in the back of their head.
Who cares if they don't do work at all. They are doing enough work serving and contributing to the Ria High community like a madman. And i greatly appreciate it.
So don't think when I pick a Crew member i judge it by how much i can slave them away to do work. I judge it by how i see them RP and if they do see Ria High, the same way i do.
And besides.
They do do work.
I talk to them on MSN/AIM and they are just chockfull of ideas.
While I'm on the topic of Crew members
I have been thinking about making the Crew only Thread viewable to all members.
Its just stupid.
Why would i hide new upcoming ideas from the members? its just basically screaming "HAH. Your not KEWL enough to see the ideas!"
boo.
And besides Sensei WindowOpener said so in his Guide. Which is now my Bible as a Guild Captain.
So soon the Crew member thread will be Viewable to the whole general public. But i ask of it that no members to spam in there as if it was a general area.
And soon i may be adding another crew member to the team
(Yes.. its so easy to hire new crew members but so hard to get rid of them.. =_= )
I just need to learn to get to know her better. But Her Rp experience and Style has left me completely Awed.
and specially making me look bad too. =_=''
there has been a lot of new members lately
Which is due to my fault since i started advertising Ria High again. And i ask that all veteran members of RIa high to try their best to let them into their RP groups. Its ok if you don't but i know a couple old veterans returning here and there and findiing their old RP partners gone. So i think itl be great to adopt one of them into their groups and such.
And newcomers themselves. IF no one does adopt you into their rping groups
Theres always the option to bring your friend over, right? XD?
And Finally
Updating the list of Kurai things to do
Re-do the front page 90% done Re-do the Newcomers thread 0% done RP with the newcomers themselves 0% done

Rayan:
Tra lalala!
Ok now I will edit and give this post content... just testing my avi folks...
I'll make sure I don't do rants up here without doing the [rant] box. If I do forget then bah. Delete it if you want. My life isn't that important. XP
I gots some stuff to say! with substance! all right goody goody goo...
First off, I would like to sincerely applaud our dear crew captain, Kurai! I must say, he's done a lot for everybody here. If you haven't thanked him yet, then get down on the ground and start kissing his feet. NOW. Because Alan's spent a lot of time creating events, images and the like making Ria High one of the best rping places on Gaia, if not THE top place. He's given it an air of professionalism through and through. So despite that I loathe having to use the freaking avatar every time... since that's all he asks, I'll comply. Basically what I'm trying to say is that we should all try to make Alan's job a little easier by doing what little he asks and not making any huge demands on him about the guild.
As for us crew members...
I don't expect any undying loyalty from you RH peoples. But there's more to contributing to Ria High than just building threads and events and such... some of us churn out rping ideas by the dozen just so people can enjoy themselves here. We crew members don't need your sympathy, but we (at least I) would like to hear that you support our attempts to make rping around here fun. Nothing fancy.
Anyways, onto more upbeat things... Welcome one and all newbies! No, there will be no such n00b hatred here. ^^; Unless you insult my mother in which case I will murder you with an electrical cord and then cremate your corpse.
Ok ok I'll just get to the point... everybody, I'm proud of how rping has really exploded out there! Keep up the good work! Keep trying to improve, and don't be afraid to add more descriptions to your posts!
