Tema

I am not very sure what, exactly you're referring to about; "The condition of bisexuality should be better than the real condition in UK". Incest is pretty much illegal everywhere in the real world (I think one or two country's accept/tollerate it. I'm not sure.) But prostitution in the UK is most certainly not "Completely Legal" at all. In the United Kingdom, prostitution itself (the exchange of sexual services for money) is legal, but a number of related activities, including soliciting in a public place, kerb crawling, owning or managing a brothel, pimping and pandering, are crimes. - Wikipedia and BBC [http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/7736436.stm - 2008] In America; from what I understand is you have at least two levels of law. Federal and State, and this is simply where it becomes confusing. What's legal in one state might not be legal in the state next door, which could be a matter of a few meters from where it was legal to where it's illegal. The thing is I think there's probably commonground; but if we say Blackberry Falls as a full democracy that allows the Roleplayers to vote on laws... I dunno. It may end up looking even more serious, for even more serious roleplayers. Which could put of a lot of people who do just want to. I personally don't see that solution as being viable. Instead; I propose is inter-character interpritations of the Rules of the Roleplay. It wouldn't be completely lawless; but as long as the rules of the RP is being followed; it doesn't matter how your character interperates that law, the character is a fictional character at the end of the day. If Person A and Person B has a character that's say... Cheating on his missus with, Person A's character is to catch them then kill them both, and they both agree on this grosum end for their character's lives then that's fine in the rules. However; if Person A and Person B are a bit more serious (roleplayers) then perhaps they might seek out someone with a Police Officer character (This is where character ID tagging might come in handy) If people don't want to do it then fine. At least this will be the intention of such a change. Ultimately we do want to give the tools to allow non-serious roleplayers an opportunity to become more serious; and let everyone learn a thing or two about roleplaying. I'm not above saying I've definately learnt from people who dare to do different and ultimately I know EcchiDreams can have the capability of giving everyone a chance to improve themselves. My English used to be appauling worse than it is. EcchiDreams ultimately helped me in so many ways and I want it do that, not just for myself but others too. I also wanted to add that the Current roleplay Administrator has been quick to adapt; quick to modernise and I'm not saying that out of any personal interest. But the Roleplay has seen the biggest transformation on this site, what started out as one very limited high school has become so much more. But there are some areas that need to be challanged. And Manni; I understand where you are coming from but I'm not sure how to really respond. So I have to speak from personal experiance. The problem is with people who aren't serious about roleplaying who want to roleplay only sex tend to expect the serious roleplayers to roleplay only sex with them. From personal experianced, I just felt used and unappreiated as a person because my posts were unappreiated and the people I was roleplaying with didn't read what I had put. But I opened myself up to that. The problem here I think lies around the "Anti-No Porn Without Plot" stance this current administration believes in; because in real life porn without plot does happen, or rather sex without plot. One night stands for example, one time quickies some people somewhere get involved in. Okay it doesn't happen as commonly as the RPs but it does happen, and I know Neppy believes that such things shouldn't be enforced either. But where does that leave the roleplayer that doesn't want sex-sex-sex all the time? Hell sometimes I roleplay sex for no plotistical reason what-so-ever. Just because I can. I like that freedom. But what I'm saying is people who aren't serious shouldn't expect it from everyone. Just because this a hentai site; doesn't mean we're all obsessed from whenever we get up to whenever we go to sleep with sex. Well I might be, LOL. But seriously; I just put "I will not do sex-sex-sex and I will want to do a bit of storyline between the sex bits because that's who I am." In line with my belief that I think doing sex RP's is awesome, but it's like desert. You want meals too, you can't "live" off of only deserts. It should be up to the person and really the community to decide who they want to roleplay with and who they don't. I try to give people a try and admittedly I've had it thrown back in my face so many times that I kinda reclused. Eventually I put up my own disclaimer and what I will do and don't do. I will be changing this as I feel it's geared only towards sexual encounters which really hasn't been my interest since 2011/2012. So yeah; I dunno. I felt it was easier at the end of the day by setting an example and putting up disclaimers; and my list of RP do's and don'ts with me. So people have a vauge idea before asking me to RP with them.

Welcome to EcchiDreams, FakkaHatta. I do have a question though; How are you, today? :) Take care and I hope to see you around. Likewise if you have an questions, comments or concerns don't hesitate to contact me.

Hello Kyrial, Thank you for registering, and introducing yourself. I also wanted to start by thanking you for voicing your concerns, I wanted to respond to these concerns openly and honestly, as any other way would be pointless and unnecessary. I'll try not to intentionally patronise. I want to also reassure you that you don't sound whiny (At least to me) as I understand your concerns and share them. In regards to the activity on the forum, this has been something that I have been concerned with for a very long time, and admittedly I've done seemingly nothing to address this issue, the issue for us comes down to time, manpower and ultimately money. EcchiDreams has never been about profit, sure we advertise, but this is to address one of the biggest issues we have; to pay for our own advertising, but we also do link exchanges too which allows other sites like EcchiDreams to link in a kinda "Friends Network" or "Similar Sites". To put it bluntly; there is no money for advertising (Other than what we get from Ads on this site, and my own back pocket). Instead we're re-thinking on how to do it under a no-budget situation. A challenge, if you will (And boy is it a challenge...). The next issue was people power. Of course a site has to have content, not only from what the community contributes but we have to do a great deal too, and we're working on that. (Well I was trying to until my computer fried itself). But our staff were stretched a bit too thin. We were working on the Social Media Pages and trying to fix all of the problems on EcchiDreams at the same time. There wasn't enough hours in a day to cope with this. That is why we ran the EcchiSocial Staff Application; so we could reboot our social media pages and provide excellent content on there, while we work on the site. It was a Voluntary position that ran earlier this year, and in the end out of all the suitable applicants only one has remained. Unfortunately he's still extremely new to all of this and I'm just finishing up on his "training". We reconise Social Media as being important for Advertising for EcchiDreams if used correctly; but we will not get there by being "spamming dicks" about it. We're going to try and credit every artist, and advertise their work too, give people information, make them aware and ultimately to be a sort of, friendly face. Represent who we want EcchiDreams to be. The last critical issue we've had is restarting. The last restart was actually the 8th to happen since EcchiDreams has been open, one while I was in control which I fully investigated and put in measures to prevent this from ever happening again that to be honest I could have implemented sooner, but hindsight is a wonderful tool. On top of automated backups, I make a manual backup every month, and a database backup (A snapshot) every week. I even got myself a scheduler to remind me to do it, and it's become a habit. The Advertising concern I appreciate you not being too bothered and whilst I was the first administrator to stop "Paid for premium membership" partly for legal reasons and the fact that it just covered the cost of hosting. But because I lost the only thing that could make money for the Advertising Budget I brought in advertising so you (the member) didn't feel you had to fork out money on some little site, we don't even have a donate option. We (before I was the Site Administrator) used to take money from Premium Memberships (as mentioned above), I (because of where I live) may have legal issues with such a system as well as personal issues. So I made it contribution based, EcchiCredits - Earned from posting/rewards/etc = Premium Membership and nice little addons, which we were going to use to make your EcchiDreams account more personalisable (by not restricting already possible personalisable aspects. Like we won't start charging EcchiCredits for uploading a new avatar, for example). So I brought in adverts to cover the cost. However I'm also willing to concede that it's perhaps a bit over the top. I see them too; despite being staff, and also a platinum member. Infact I'm fairly sure that even NeppyNepNep, and other staff sees them too. I was personally thinking about getting rid of the one on the sidebar and stop that popup from opening on mobile browsers. When I get my computer fixed; that'll be the first thing I will do. I hope this addresses your concerns. Feel free to reply to this either here or in an EcchiText. If you're concerned about something; as I always say. Don't hesitate to ask. :)

Welcome to EcchiDreams, Riko and thanks for registering and putting up your rather unique but friendly introduction. I'm Tripp, as the name suggests. :D I look forward to seeing you around.

So I had this idea... When the RP opened up originally in 2007 we needed to base the RP off of some laws that already existed to save time on writing the rules. The leader of the RP section at the time had this somewhat narrowminded idea that really at the time would have solved the immediate problem but was never conceived in the larger scale. I think at the time I was admittedly that Roleplay Adminstrator. Of course back then it was just Thorndown Highschool which was very limiting. Now we have a fully open island based RPs (and Andromeda which is a open space RP and in my opinion virtually limitless if you can use your imagination.) It was admittedly a narrowminded idea which I think was actually mine. This idea now is rather... Limiting and unfair. Blackberry Falls is ran by the UK/US government. Therefore it's a blend of their laws. Now obviously this has changed with the RP department but the extent of change is the name. Nothing else. So I'm thinking to make the RP more free-ranged and less strict, which may (I'm guessing here) put off less-serious RPers and people who aren't from the UK or the USA who may (again just guessing here) feel sectioned and isolated from the RP. I think focus should be rules of the Roleplay. Not rules within the roleplay which may feel restrictive. It was all unintentional as I didn't anticipate this at the time and the community if memory serves me didn't care either way, but had a few loud voices who had one opinion or the other. I understand that there is BOUND to be laws in a civilization. But perhaps this could just be Blackberry Fall's laws rather than a fixed set of laws the exist in real life. It should be up to people to communicate with each other the cause and effect, the consequences of this cause and effect and think about their RP in a dynamic sort of way, they should be able to choose if they want to do that, not have it forced on them. If that makes sense. Now I posted this up publicly because I want roleplayers to put their voices, to get some real information. So in short I'm not really sure what to say, it's something I noticed and wanted to bring to attention. A sort of "Do we need to improve this?" sort of deal. One last thing. People shouldn't be scared to post suggestions up in the suggestion's forums. I want to assure everyone that I read every single suggestion personally, it's my job to. If there are other ideas and stuff that you want to share that you think may improve the site it doesn't hurt to bring it up. It's better that we are aware of any problems rather than being unaware.

Welcome to EcchiDreams. ^_^

Welcome to EcchiDreams; best advice I can give is to be a little patient with us. We're still a small site, but we're growing. Thanks for registering, I look forward to seeing you around.

Welcome to EcchiDreams. I look forward to see you around. ^_^

Welcome to EcchiDreams Hanano Aki and hello to you to. If you run into any problems with the site, don't be afraid to ask/tell me and I will see what I can do. ^_^

Welcome to EcchiDreams Vinicius19. As SMFoxy said; if you'd like help don't hesitate in contacting us. I will probably drop off an EcchiText shortly, just to make sure you're okay.

Welcome to EcchiDreams, MultiPyro. If you do get stuck, don't hesitate to ask. We're here to help. :)

Welcome to EcchiDreams, Valesti. ^_^ Perhaps I should make a welcome thread at some point too. Lol.

Welcome to EcchiDreams.

Welcome to EcchiDreams, Ane. ^_^

Thank you and welcome back to EcchiDreams!

Well,welcome to EcchiDreams, its quite a different experience but if your passionate or love roleplaying then I really encourage you to give it a try and take it easy when starting out. In my personal opinion especially here, its worth it. If you need any help, don't hesitate to ask. I'm not really at home right now, so I can reply just... Apologies if its a little later than expected.

My "lawyer" has advised me not to say, however I doubt you'll be walking straight afterwards. ;D

Ah! Then yes, absolutely! Sex is apart of life and this is an adult site so RP sex to your hearts content. ^_^ No censoring of that sort here see: Fuck, Shit, Piss, Cunt, Jabberwocky. We're very much so against censorship here. If it's personal/one on one private roleplaying (which I believe is casual RPing, if it's one liners and such) then... This forum is a good place to look first. Obviously we have Blackberry City and Craethiel (I probably spelt that wrong) too; but these have more rules than one on one role-playing and I don't *personally* consider it to be casual roleplaying.

Apologies for my delayed welcome. Welcome to EcchiDreams Cherie, I hope to see you around. May I ask; just to stir up some conversation and out of genuine curiosity... What exactly were you looking for in this site? I'm glad it's exactly what you were looking for! ^_^

Well who knows what could happen. ;) xD

Welcome to EcchiDreams, I love your avatar by the way. ^_^ Thanks for registering; I hope to see you around :)

That's a very good question, and you're right. As soon as it's released (pending licence renewals) I will be looking at downloading it and installing it on my home server with a version of EcchiDreams running on it so I can look at what would be broken and work around it. The update to the site isn't likely to come until a little while after that, as some of you know when we upgraded to to an IP.Board before we lost skins for 8 months. That sort of problem is what I aim to avoid. If you like you can sign up for the Beta Dreamers, it'll allow you to Beta Test new EcchiDreams features which will allow you in particular to write your guide as this stuff happens. There are some things that one could get started on though stuff not relating to the core if you will, stuff based more on the staff or how we operate, that sort of stuff... As soon as I have more news I'll let you know, right away. ^_^

Welcome to EcchiDreams, and likewise if you have any questions for us, or need any assistance with something on EcchiDreams don't hesitate to ask. I look forward to seeing you around! ^_^

So I got this fortune cookie when I last ordered Chiniese. The first thing I thought was this thread so I took a picture and posted it up to Instagram. LOL Just kidding here it is: ... IN BED! YEAAAHHH! xD

You know me; same ol' same ol'. Improving things here, working some deviously good-willed magic there. Welcome back by the way. How is your blade getting on?
