Alright...this sight has a lot to offer to everyone here. It's got two different sides, fighting each other. It's got betrayal going back and forth. We got spies, and special ops. But now I have this to ask. What about prisoners of war? I know it's pretty much a human term and probably wouldn't do much for sides, informational wise. Both sides already know the locations of each others base. Theres really no potential there. But I think that capturing the enemies definitely has the potential for a good recon mission, or torture session. I would also think of it as a time to build up more background for the captured character. Sneak in, save your friends, and get back out without becoming captured, or ambushed. What your thoughts?

I love the idea. I’ve been walking around with it for quite a while now, but even if we would keep some prisoners of war (P.O.W.’s), Light nor Dark sides have any (or enough) soldiers that could be sent out to save them. I’m talking about Spies and S.O.S’s ( Special Operations Soldier ). I think the amount still has to grow in both sides, even though I can’t wait to get started with that idea, if everyone likes it and/or agrees with it. e_e;

If? No "if" about it, I think. xD
SUPPORT 100%. P.O.W are a great Idea...
And there's another thing I have been thinking of lately. You know how Lights can see the Dark's base and Vice Versa, and how that can cause problems if people already know the enemy plan? How's about....
PASSWORDED BASES. Darks are given a pass for their base when they join, as are Lights. This could be another thing for P.O.W, because you could "interrogate" prisoners and get the base PWs for spies and stuff to get in. AND YOU COULD GET THE BATTLE PLANS TOO, Which would make things very intresting and a bit more realistic. xD Plus, it'd give spies and the like much more work. Every so often, you could send a spy in pretending to be a Light... And memorise the plans.
Of course, this could be problematic for people who play both sides... But if we were only allowed one PW at a time, I don't think I't be a problem. Sendiri and you could update the passes once a week to stop people getting in anyways... I personallt think it's a good idea. xD

Does it matter if the lights can see the darks posted battle plans? Just because they've seen it, doesn't mean there characters will know the info, so it doesn't matter. Right? and that would also conflict with the gathering of the post on my end. To know and not act accordingly may be ignorance, but that is how things should be run. Ignorance is bliss.
Just thought I'd get that out of the way, but yeah. From your perspective I can see where your coming from and that does sound interesting.

I like the idea. It gives Timoleon something to do xD I just love the idea.
Speaking of that, when will I get that title? And er...isn't Timoleon the only special ops so far?

okay, I know for one that my roleplaying has slacked off greatly, but I totally support the P.O.W idea. and whisperdale's board password idea, too. my only solution to the problem of members who play both Lights and Darks is to have them create different accounts, then update the password frequently, but then again, the member would still have the knowledge...hmmm.

Timoleon: -bites-
Me: But as to playing both lights and darks, one could just be sensible and not say their charrie of the other alignment knows the pass. Common sense; your other charrie would have to attain the pass for themselves, without you having them take a 'lucky guess'- if anyone just said that, they could be warned.

Sorry, were you a SOS, Tim? I'll make da rank right away. About the password-thingy... I dunno, I personally think it would get all messy. Since Sendiri is barely ever on these days, I would be the one who would have to do it. Can’t blame her though, she has a life too. And how are all the Darks and Lights separately supposed to know the passwords? I can't PM everyone 'cause the PM would reach Lights too. And it’d be a lot of work to change it every week… plus, every newbie that would join the site would ask annoying things about it, I’m sure of that, since some fellas didn’t even know how to make a thread while the ‘make new thread’ button was two inches away!

Yeah, check out Timoleons bio. As for passwords, I didn't think of the technical stuff, so now my opinion is no passes, but I like the POW idea, so long as they do get free eventually.

Most would get free, but it'd make it more interesting if some died, too. Otherwise you know they'll always come out alive. And since STILL no one has joined the special forces yet, we probably have to wait until the next battle anyway, so enough time to think about it all & discuss it. ^.^

Well, I like to keep my charries alive, meself. =) Besides, I only have two charries. No need to kill any off to make room. So they'd have to discuss that among themselves, so no one's charrie gets killed when he/she didn't want them to be.

I'm sorry...I just got a puppy...and I need to spend time with her. No offense but she is more important to me than the internet. She eesh sleeping right now. But again, I'm terribly sorry. I like the idea, honestly. It'd make wicked plots. Password Idea = Uh oh, I don't think so. Like Northern Light said, things would get messy. Soon enough it wouldn't matter, because all the Darks would know the Light's password and vise versa. I'm still up for the prisoner's idea though.

I do love the idea. It would make everything way more fun! We could capture them and make them slaves or torture them or somthing! Being pretty much evil, I say it...Is...AWSOME!

I personally think the idea of having P.O.W. is a great idea. Then you have more in a battle then you just either come out alive or dead. This way, there's the possibility of capture for information. As for the idea about the passwords? It sounds rather silly. The CHAR it's self wouldn't know in the RP EVEN if the RPER did know.

I love the idea, but when you think of all the technical stuff, it's kinda confusing. As for the password bases... Well, I'm on this one site that only the leaders know the password, and there's a password for each c.lan. A board in each territory has a hint of what the password is. Once someone figures out what it is, they tell the leader and they can lead a random attack on the other c.lan. It works pretty well, so I don't know if you might want to work it out that way.
