Alright so I would lile to clear some things up just so that people understand what is going on eith the setting.

 

So the rp will take place alot on the ship itself. However there will be Events that happen that may allow for people of certain groups to go outside the ship on different missions. When an event starts I will make a topic labeled as an Event. And once it is done the topic will be locked. (So it can be viewed but not added to afterwards.)

These events can vary from mining, exterior repairs, dog fights, and planet surveying and more.

 

 

As for positions needed if anyone is wondering what they should be we would need some of the following positions.

 

Command officers: like captain, commander, and similar.

Medical staff: a medical staff members would of course be needed on a ship of the size of the ark colonyship. Primary medical, emergency medical, hospital staff, and psychological health could be used.

Science Officers: we can use officers of various fields. Biology, geology, zoology, chemistry, botany, and other fields.

Production Team members: fabricators, farmers (for food production and herbal production) assemblers and other positions for producing materials and parts foruse on the ship.

Sanitation: there obviously is a need for people to clean up around the ship as well.

Various commercial positions: since the population is on this ship for a while there is a commerce section with an on going economy. This could have jobs from schools, to businesses like resturaunts and stores. There even is a small section that works as a red light district that has strip clubs, brothels, sex shops, and even porn studios. The red light district is obviously age restricted.

So I was thinking of rebuilding this with a slightly different plot then what we have, and maybe scaling down the massiveness of the environment. as it seems apparent when people have an open ended rp, instead of allowing them to be creative and do almost anything they want it seems they most commonly just do nothing at all. 

So my Plans are as the following goes:

- Cut down the scale of the ship: instead of a planets population maybe just have a couple thousand at most. like a small township in size. This will also reduce need for npc's as many people suggested the current scale would require a massive amount of npcs which I nor anyone else would have the capability to  up keep.

- Change the plot: The current plot is much more open ended and seems that it doesn't engage people enough. I will make a new plot to 

have a more straight forward objective.

- Define a specific set of species:  Allowing anyone to create any species they wanted created too much variation and most people would just use a new species instead of picking human or an existing species. So in the new updated rp there will be a specific set of species so that the population of each species can be built up a bit more. Some species from this iteration of the club will be carried over.

- Events: I had originally planned for there to be events in this rp. That will still be the case but I plan to have events be more in number than what I originally planned.

- change the way that the club is structured (maybe): I am toying with the idea of having the rp structure differently. Instead of having a bunch of topics representing each area I am thinking of having a main rp segment and allowing people to create offshoot rp segments for interactions between characters. I will post a reference topic that will show the basic areas of the ship with reference photos of what it would look like so people can have the same information to refer to.

 

Now I will go over the new storyline that I will propose.

 

New name: Origin Point Zero

Story: Throughout history on worlds with intelligent life there has always been stories of ones disappearing from the world via abduction from off-world life-forms. While usually these claims get brushed off as insanity, these claims have been true. An alien species called the U'vahn (pronounced as oo-phon).  They have been kidnapping people from various planets and using them as slaves to build up their own infrastructure. The U'vahn were brutal and would abuse their slaves sometimes beating some to death. However after many generations of living under oppression the ones born on the U'vahn home world eventually grew up without knowledge of their original homeworlds only hearing tales of it through word of mouth from their elders. Eventually the slaves had enough and rose up and pushed back the U'vahn and stole a set of U'vahn battle cruisers. With the stolen ships the previously enslaved culture set out to find the homeworlds they had heard so much about from their elders, the origin points (the ship in this rp is set for earth so all members on it either are human, alien human hybrids, or aliens who chose they want to live on earth instead of the other worlds of rumor).  There will be dangers though, as the U'vahn will be pursuing the stolen ships as well as there being other possible hostile entities. the way that these refugees would defend themselves would be through use of dog fighter ships and a set of Mech suits that the U'vahn have used for space combat. (Not everyone will be able to use the mech suits.) 

 

please let me know what you think of this sort of restructure and if you have suggestions for it I will like to hear them in the suggestions thread.
