I've been lurking for a bit but I'm around if anyone wants anything. I never really went away, just took a breather.

After much consideration of different ideas a decision has been reached on the future of the group. Obviously it would be nice to have more members and have a more active dash but real life is hard and there isn't enough time in the day to sustain that here. Having a place to play when there is time in your schedule has become the normal over the years and it's time to embrace that and stop putting expectations on everyone that we can't commit to. There's not a lot of change, but here's what's happening going forward because this isn't a "normal" roleplay group and some things need to be explained:

All active history will continue to stay. Active history means that someone part of the storyline/plot is still in the group and using the history. If everyone involved in a plot is no longer in the group then the history erases. Plot changes are allowed when all participants of the plot agree, or if you're the only one left from a plot and wish to change some of it to move forward without the other person/people.

We will no longer be actively posting for people to come join the group. If you need someone specifically for a plot you can let us know and we can make posts about that. Maybe once in awhile you may see us make a post looking for people to join, but because we are a history based RP with many celebs now whoever joins the group has to be okay with the history before being accepted.

Activity checks will resume once a month starting in January. If someone hasn't been active in 4+ weeks they will be put on warning and if someone hasn't been active in 8+ weeks they will be removed. We have a list of players who are grandfathered in, who won't be removed as long as they're staying in contact with us OOC and we have a way to contact them off of Tumblr (facebook, instagram, snapchat, phone number, ect) If you would like to be on that list you can contact us and as always if you need a hiatus you can submit the hiatus form.

We are still going to try to do events here and there but with the lack of interest in most of them we'd rather not waste so much time planning them if nobody is going to participate. If you would like your characters to host events the main puts on please let us know.

Things in this group have been and will remain lax. Everyone has a real life to live, a job, a family in some way and responsibilities. We're not going to pressure anyone to be on if they can't be. We're not going to punish people for not being able to be on every day.

If you are in the group though, or if you do end up joining the group, we do ask that you post and reply to starters, that you para with other characters, if you have characters who would know each other in real life have them interact sometimes, and please try to include everyone. Most importantly please give everyone respect and patience.

please like this post so we know that you read it.

We want to hear from you!

Over the last several years the activity level here has dropped. We've tried to accommodate it by changing rules around to make it more relaxed, allowing people to come on when they want to and not worry so much about activity checks. We have tried to boost activity but we've come to realize that with the currently activity the way it is, it's hard to get new players to join and want to stay. We try to plan events and not everyone participates. We're really not sure what else to try so we'd like your opinion

There's some options of what we could do and we're looking to know what you would be interested in. NOTHING is going to be decided upon right now. We're gathering information and figuring out the best course of action.

Close the group completely

Close the group to new players and just play with those who are still here. People can continue to come and go as they want.

Turn back into a "normal" group with more activity checks and mandatory tasks

Leave things as they are right now

Other - please explain your idea

Please send us a message via our ask box or submit box with your choice.

All Character requests approved yesterday are still fine, but starting today we're putting a small freeze on picking up additional characters! We want to see everyone more active before picking up a second, third, ect. If you are having issues with being active with the amount that you have - we do recommend dropping one or two!

Please give this a quick like once you've read this!

Why are you not going accepted apps for new admins if rl is busy?

Because I don't want to accept any new admins at the moment and life won't always be this busy.

[carpediem-celebrpg]

It's been a hectic week and I haven't done all too much. I'm here until I go to bed and would love some company with apps and or questions!

Genevieve Cortese has switched to Donnie Wahlberg

At this time I have decided to step away from being an admin of this group. I'm not the only one who made decisions in this group but I'm the only one who got shit for them and my mental health can no longer take it. I just want to focus on playing. Britt will now be the only admin. Please be gentle.

No we are not going to be accepting applications for new admins.

If you have https://the-psablog.tumblr.com/ blocked then you wouldn't have seen that I reblogged something and added an admin note. For that reason I'm posting it again here:

ALL history stays in this group. That has been a rule since day 1. It's never been a secret. It's a group rule to keep things fair to the players who have been in this group long term who have spent literal years invested in story lines. The only time history can be erased or changed is if all players/characters in a plot line have left the group or if they agree to change it and a plot change post is made from the main page. This group will be 10 years old in February, that's 10 years of history. In real life we can't just erase things that have happened. It is not realistic. We normally try to tell you the history before your application/follow is accepted/posted but in the rare case we can't get you the history at that point we get it to you shortly after you start playing. You always have the choice whether to accept the history and continue playing or to turn the character down. We apologize for any inconvenience this causes with new players, but this group respects the long term plot lines of our long term players. Also, if ONE more private conversation between me and another player ends up on the PSA blog I'm removing everyone in the group who I don't personally know in real life. I will close the group to any new applicants and we'll play as is. The drama and harassment is uncalled for and I've had ENOUGH.
