HELLO INKED -- we have an important announcement to make and one we never really thought we’d have to make around here. We know that everyone won’t be happy with the decision we’ve come to so this is very hard for us. However, I feel like I owe it to you all as the primary admin and creator of this group to be honest about where things are and how we’re both feeling as admins about the group as a whole.
It’s probably fairly obvious that we’ve lost muse -- it’s hard to continue logging onto a main when there’s never any new traffic in our inbox despite changing up the plot and making joining an absolute breeze for new members. We LOVE the loyal members we have and that you want to take up new characters here but it’s hard for a group to stay open and interesting without an influx of fresh members which is why we’ve made the following decision:
INKED PETALS is now a CLOSED GROUP.
We don’t mean closed as in you all have to stop roleplaying. In fact, you’re all welcome to continue roleplaying for as much as you’d like. I know I personally will be keeping my characters and coming on when I can. We will just no longer be promoting for new members. Activity limits are being lifted so you can all come on and write entirely as a hobby without fears of being reopened. If you want to drop a character, feel free to post your own unfollow to the #inkunfollow tag. Taking up characters and major plots should still be run by me or Kasey just so it doesn’t get too out of hand but it’ll be less formal. You’re also welcome to invite your friends personally -- they will have to apply as standard but once they’re in, they’re in. You know?
Basically this will just a more lax way of roleplaying and writing and just having a good time as friends. Most of us have been here months if not years. We don’t want to permanently say goodbye and we know you probably don’t either. It’s just hard to generate interest with longstanding groups, despite our best efforts here and on the promo blog. And maybe that’ll change in the future but for now, I hope you’re all as okay with this decision as possible. If you have any questions feel free to k i k me at sammystylinson or drop a message to the main!
Also tumblr reverted us to our old graphics; thanks for that tumblr. Love you too.
Thank you Inked!
