THIS WILL BE A BIT LONG


After several hours of forum dabbling, face book uploading and eating dinner, i've finished the new design for Gotei 13.

From the index you will see two subforums within Gotei 13 which are. Gotei 13 Head Quarters and Divisions Area Territory

Gotei 13 Head Quarters contains 5 subforums.

As you can see the 5 sub-forums has its own function. (View spoiler to view summarized functions)

Spoiler:

The Center of operation serves as a place for urgent meetings, captain offices, member organizations and the likes.

On the ranking and recruitment, its pretty self explanatory on its self, instead of having all divisions have one, we combine them under one forum. (Note to the captains: I need you guys to combine ranks with recruitment threads, that way we wont eat too much space.)

The Colosseum is a place for training, battles and the likes, it was a suggestion by Funny, so thank him. Though Gotei 13 has a proper training facility, Divisions can still have one on there Division space.

The Crystal Palace is an area for Gotei 13 events, a wedding, a contest, or anything of the same nature, this is like the highlights area of our previous division design.

The Archival database is where all old threads that either died or just expired are stored, and within that area a subforum exists which is called the back room.

While the archival database is just a place to store old threads, the Back Room is where you can RP going through the secret database within the database. You can RP there so long as your 5th seat and above.

Now we move to the second subforum, the Division Area Territories subsection.

There you'll see every Division forum located on a specific area somewhere within soul society.

Instead of the original design, Divisions now only have a single forum instead of the original four. Captains still have moderation rights over it, and can request for additional forums for some Kan in exchange. But if your a good captain, i think you can work with just one forum if you fully use it to its potential... you don't need 5-6 subforums just to say you have authority over something, its not the number of forums you handle, its how use the space provided to you to its fullest.


This new design will lessen the confusion of those who want to join a division, on where to go, where to post, what to do, who to ask. They just have to go to that one forum where all recruitment is done.


Your Division forum is your playground. You can design a city as you wish, add all the elements you need and have mini-plots for your division.

Divisions are no longer intact in one area, so proper traveling should be done, if i do have time, we should make a map stating where is which and how long travel would be to reach one place to the other. I really wish we could post one place at a time on plot topics, but if its off-topic areas, be my guest, post where you want, be two places at once, but please behave on plot topics.

If one Division is attacked, other divisions cant help that easily unless the two divisions are really close to each other, if you want to travel from one division to the other, consider travel time on your posts.

But why am i explaining this now. i think you pretty much get the new design.

Non of the divisions have there story yet, but im hoping for all the captains to comply with one, to have a City too look over of, to have a mini story about it, and add mysteries that needs to be solved.

I'm counting on you guys, i hope you like this change.

Well, it looks awesome. :D

Thanks for all your efforts, Ruru.

P.S. Onion emoticons are even better. lol

Nice work.

Congrats. Now all we need is the creation of the vizard race in game.

Then all hell can break lose ^^

The vizard race is already been made lol, Mikanno Vizard, it's a group but its vizard xD

Anyway, Ruru, i give you props, this looks like, as you stated, a lot of time and effort to do, something i doubt i'd be able to do.

No no no no xD I meant the in game creation of the Vizards- the reason for their existence being explored much like the espada

@ Suzu - Yup, in game vizard creation still needs to be done. and we can start all that now.

YAY!! We can start the RP! @.@

/gasps

Well, this weekend will be the first captain contests, so in the meantime Ive just got to start corrupting people towards my own part of the plot I suppose xD Fun times all 'round, yeah?

Yup, but i think i better go prepare for the first arc, the Phantom arc scrollie thing over the chat box.

*facepalms*

Simple enough, but the arcs cant be done by just one person xD Any luck bringing the vizards back online? Would a mass email to that membergroup work or....?
