Thank you and Farewell...
On Thursday, January 29th, an important message was given to our roleplayers about the current (in)activity issue that TH was facing. The roleplay was given a little over a week for things to change, and for the first few days, things were looking good: we had good feedback, we saw more people on the dash and we had four new roleplayers join the group...
However, today is Sunday, February 8th 2015 - the day of our deadline, and our goal has not been fully realized.
Although the first 3-4 days were decent, the end of the week provided a steady decline reminiscent of the pattern of low activity we have been experiencing lately, despite all the members who are still around. There were even spans of a few hours where only one person would be online. Today's activity check only seemed to confirm these concerns. Even if people are still roleplaying on the dash, it isn't enough to maintain the group dynamic we were so proud of here at TH. And as was said on every activity check in the past, "activity is more than coming online every two-three days just to do a round of replies before leaving again, simply to secure your role" (Thursday, Jan. 29th).
Beyond roleplaying on the dash though, the lack of activity made administrative duties more difficult for us, since we received very little feedback from our rpers regarding the changes being made to TH. This made the task less motivating for us in terms of knowing whether the revamp (graphics overhaul, reposts, etc.) was even worth it.
After almost two years and many great memories along the way, it is with heavy hearts that we now announce: The Hamptons Supernatural RolePlay is officially closed... Maybe this is just a 'see you later', but for now, we will be dismantling.
To our current roleplayers: Those of you who have had your roles for a long time and have formed attachments to your characters: If you wish to keep them, please contact me to let me know - Don't just rip off a character or the roleplay in order to continue. As many of these are my characters, I reserve the right to know if you plan on continuing with them. I'll gladly let you keep them as indies (I'll remain with Sofia as an indie-rper myself), but just please come and speak with me first.

It was a long journey and both myself and Admin X are sad to see it come to an end for now. Still, we wish you all the very best and thank you all sincerely for the pleasure and the honour of roleplaying with each and every one of you. You are an amazing group of roleplayers and writers, and your portrayal of the characters were often better than I could ever have envisioned.
With much love,
Admin Daisy & Admin X.
