To Do list (not necessarily the important things):
- comm/plurk user icons
- comm/plurk layouts (make them match somewhat too?)
✓ suggestions-box post, index post, mod contact post
- start adding the things from the other plurk and the page on rpanons

I mean, clearly, the meat of it should take priority over the aesthetics, but.

dwrp I don't know how much this plurk will be used, but I want to let you know, this comm is going to be A Thing. hopefully an ongoing, upkept thing, but A Thing, either way.

I mean, like, proposed index pages, linked to by the Table of Contents page. I'm assuming the comm could be posted to with the char memes and whatnot, too. I'm thinking of things like the Char Survey of Doom, for convenience/safekeeping reasons. those "smaller" pages would be linked to from the category pages...?

I can words, I swear. I'm lying. I'm too tired to brain English good atm.

so, stickied Table of Contents post, which links to those list-item pages above, for the various categories.

those category subsection pages link to the resources themselves, be it other posts in the comm for memes and whatnot, or off-DW pages, like the IJ comm....
I'll scope this later this morning and holla back
I love all of those, I think some might even be sub-trees to each other but we can get into the nitty gritty after we get a v1 done i think. I would also maybe include — there was this really neat tumblr to dwrp guide on how our whole shit works. maybe linking that, and/or having just a basic glossary on what terms are, how shit works, the norms?
that's just optional extra extra for the new blood or the insanejournal migrators I've seen cropping up over the last year or two

DWRP News

I gotchu.
another thing I've been thinking of that may or may not be feasible or appropriate for this or people may not even want, but — a plurk friending hub? we get a lot of new blood here that may not know people in DWRP and thus may not know that plurk is one of our main forms of social media?
and even if they do, may not know people to add to start integrating into it?
so maybe some kind of new people plurk account where homies can jump in, add each other, maybe existing folks who are open to it can list their fandoms and be down for newbies to add them
at the very least we can list somewhere good plurks to follow such as DWRP news or the icon plurk accounts
future things to consider while my adhd is running that aren't relevant right now — seeing about affiliating with bakerstreet and/or rpanons

I'm thinking at the least, adding some of the meme comms to one of the category-ish pages? Dear_Player, Bakerstreet... uhh... I'll admit, I'm not as familiar with rpanons, so I should go check them out...

I also have to admit I'm a little out of touch with the larger RP scene lately; I'm more of a PSLs-in-museboxes addict. but the char-info memes, the
'Sail

worldbuilding help stuff, the browser extensions... all of that is still entirely applicable to my interests too, so I'm pretty excited to see what all else is out there now. :-)
'Sail

as for Plurk friending memes... yeah, why not? :-D I don't know I'd have the presence of mind to post them on a regular basis or anything... but someone could post it in a comm on DW, too? or also? I have no idea what'd be most convenient for everyone involved....
rpanons has a lot of good aspects that I think are worth listing — the "rp with me" categories, icon maker posts, pb suggestions, rp advice, username suggestions, kinks you want to play, and it links out to a few resources itself
it also does the dwrp masterlist updates, links to tdms, that kind of thing
'Sail

oooh, that sounds lovely
the big thing that I think makes it not quite as good as a resource specific comm is like
it's not organized, those suggestions aren't moderated, and since there's a new post every month or two a lot of the content gets lost
i mean the categories themselves are organized but
the submissions aren't
'Sail

...but also perhaps no wonder why I've missed noting it; I've had my nose buried deep in private plurks, for the last... few years.... /cough....
aha i feel that
i could manage the friending plurks on a consistent basis I think
so i'm a super organization nerd from my work so I may make us a trello to organize all this shit
'Sail

I love hitting it off with someone on plurk, though, and then we're both just like, "yes, this is the PSL we want to do" and then we go to DWRP, to post in a musebox and go at it... XD

am debating on making a "mod" DW account that we can all use, to post from, so we can all edit the old entries....

(uhm... sorry if it's confusing, that I'm replying from both plurk accounts interchangeably. I have them up in different browser windows, is all, so as I swap between them, I'm not necessarily thinking about that detail....
I'm cool with it

I remember the days where when DW was down, it was "omg, DW, are you okay? do you need a hug? get-well-soon cards? can I fix you some chicken soup?" and when plurk went down, it was "freaking a, man, it's hitting the sauce again!! X-("
