I've seen a lot of talk lately about not wanting to limit the creativity of members with rules and regulations. While it'd be great to encourage really prolific weapon creators toward other non-weapon/non-military setting elements, some other creators only make one-off setting elements every few years. Maybe something like "if you have submitted and gained approval for X military articles in the past six months, your next article must be a non-military article." Even then, I'm still iffy on this overall because FMs ask for what their faction wants and, ultimately, the site is called Star Army Dot Com and thus is primarily about Yamatai's space military. People join to RP in a military and create military wiki articles so coupling any given person's creativity to non-military RP might not be the best idea.What I propose is that for every military/weapon-based submission you submit. There should be a need for 1 submission of a non-military oriented article in one of the above categories.
Ive been trying that forever.
My stance remains the same, it's not about factions, it's about the fact that I don't think it's right to force people to do work on a site designed for relaxation and play. Wiki creators should not need to double their workload, especially if they prefer writing one kind of content.See I'm going, to be honest. This was a trap. I did warn in my original post that I knew how this discussion was going to go. That is because I wanted it to come to this place where it is right now. Where I state very openly and plainly. When we think about the setting in Star Army we need to stop thinking about what hat we're wearing, what flag we're usually writing under. We need to think as a community. We need creators that design for this one big faction called the SARPiverse. We got lots of Yams, Neps, etc as we call them but we have fewer and fewer people lately who are thinking about things outside of their box.
We're going into peacetime, it's time to crawl out of the faction boxes and the faction holes, and it's time to think about Star Army as a Community when it comes to what we design. Designing stuff for YOUR faction is great, but the deficit I identified is sitewide. It's a Star Army issue...Not a Nep, Yam, NDC issue.
