Alli, Jo, and I have convened for the past week and the one thing that has seemed to be on our lips the entire time has been concerns for Radley’s future. I am saddened to inform all of you that I think this is Radley’s last. We have fought for three and a half weeks to revive Radley, changing everything we could think of along the way. Yet, we keep running into obstacles that range from lack of passion for being admins anymore; to lack of time to actually be here and be the admins Radley needs; to trying to compete with the appless/semi-appless roleplay popularity, to the fact that we’ve only been getting 2-3 applications a week which at that rate we won’t end up opening for a month. The thing is there are just so many outside and inside problems that have dragged Radley to a halt. Honestly, it’s simply come down to the deep longing just to be able to roleplay, yah know, with incredible people and characters and not have to worry about promoing every second of the day or breaking up ooc drama. Anyway, I don’t want this to be a sad thing or something that brings about the feelings of relief/vengeance...you know who you are. Radley has had an incredible two and a half year run. We have gone extraordinary places with this roleplay and it has been the cause of bringing so many of us together, so many of us that I am glad to be friends with even now...or look upon with fond remembrance. In an odd way, half of me is not sad about Radley’s closing at all. In fact, half of me may be a little bit proud about it. We went out working hard, not just us admins, but the people who have still stuck around and the people who have been sending us all the nice messages/opinions as well. I hope that most of us will find a way to stick together, otherwise maybe we’ll see each other again out there again in the rp verse someday. I am very thankful I got to know all of you, and I hope you guys go on to be a part of some incredible roleplays and go on to keep creating inspiring characters. I LOVE YOU GUYS SO MUCH to the end of the world and back, always. Never doubt that.
As for the people who have sent in their applications, I would like to offer an apology. Each one of you had some beautiful characters that I would have loved to see on our dashes, and it’s horrible that you won’t be able to experience Radley and how awesome it was. I hope you will be able to bring those characters sitting in our inbox to an rp that interests you just a much and accepts you like family. If you need any of the information back, yah know in case you didn’t save it your app, just let us know and we will be happy to send it back to you. Good luck with your future rp adventures, and thank you so much for seeing something in Radley that led you to apply and have hope in us. -xoxo, Admin Jess
