This message is long overdue, but I'm sure most of you realized that this site is inactive. Sorry to do this, but I just don't see a point anymore. It wasn't even my site to start with and I just don't have the effort to do anything else with it. I ran out of ideas.
So, now that that's outta the way... There've been some good people on here and I don't want to lose contact with you. I'll still come on here from time to time, but if you ever stumble across this site again and want to contact me, you can reach me at my AIM, which is Zydodo, or MSN, which is i_see_stupid_people_1@hotmail
.com. Heh, don't ask.
Anyway, thanks to those who took the time to read this.
Regards,
Zylem

Well, the November activity check is now over, and we're now down to 14 members. I dunno what happened to some of the staff, but we should be fine with the 4 of us--Ama, Ria, Carn and myself. As for those who are missing.. well, hopefully nothing has happened to them. On a happier note, it is, of course, December. All the holidays are starting up, so I can understand why the activity may be going down. But I must say, it's on the rise. I'm thinking of a monthly activity check.. or at least one every two months. The next one will probably be after the holidays. Anyway... I also added the 'Open Threads' thing. I'm hoping it will be helpful for newer members. Here's the link: Open Threads. And Ria also gave the idea of having a board for the borders of the pack lands. It'll probably make things easier for newer members, so I'll have to get on that.
Well, that was about all I had to say. Thanks guys for stickin' with me and this site. Happy Holidays.
Regards,
Zylem.

Oh, and almost forgot... HAPPY FIRST BIRTHDAY CLASH.
Geez, it hardly seems like a year, but believe it or not, it is.

Another monthly update. The recent recession in activity is quite concerning, so.. we're basically starting over.. again.. I'm getting pretty tired of this, but.. *shrug* I dunno what to do with the inactive accounts... Guess we'll just have to wait till the end of the month to delete them in another activity check.. I'll be moving all the threads into the archives... I have deleted the affiliates who have deleted our banner and am advertising again. I dunno what happened to our former staff, but.. I'd like to welcome Ria (AKA Raksha) to the staff team. She's the only one that's still here and is actually helping, so thank you Ria. And any guests reading this.. we welcome you as well. Anyway.. That is pretty much all I have to say. Also, November is a month of remembrance and thanksgiving, so.. just keep that in mind.
Regards,

Hi. Zylem here with your monthly update. *Shifts eyes* Sorry, just had to say that. Anyway... All inactive accounts have been deleted. All inactive threads have been moved. And I will soon create a Pre-Made character board... I've noticed the recent decline in activity... Especially for those who are supposed to be staff. I understand you have lives and all, but I would rather you at least tell me that you're going to be gone... and maybe that the staff position isn't right for you. New members - please join another thread or organize it so you and another member will have a thread together. I've seen it too many times when a promising member joins, then leaves because no one has replied to their thread. So, just to avoid that, please join another thread. If you're wondering what thread to join, ask in the cbox and someone will surely help you. OH, and I've also edited our playlist. It's workin now. And the affiliates have been moved to the main page. So, yeah, I think that's about all I have to say... And be active, goddamn it! Don't make it look like I'm the only one who doesn't have a life...
Kiddin. Anyway... Regards,

Well, the inactive member countdown is on, unfortunately, but I have given those people many chances to return... I'm sorry, but having inactive members may as well not be members at all. If you do actually return to the site and see that your account has been deleted, feel free to rejoin.. and maybe, y'know, be active. That would be great, so.. Anyway, by the end of this month (because we should all be adjusted to school by then), I will be deleting all accounts that have not signed in within the past month. Yes.. being an admin involves those depressing jobs, sorry to say.

Sorry with the frequent updates, but I remembered a few more things to say. There is now a 5-person staff team, in case you didn't notice. There will be no more, unfortunately (even that is a bit too much right now). But those are the people I choose and you better be happy about it. Now, the other thing I wanted to add was.. well, this plot is progressing rather slowly. I mean, I have it all planned out (most of it, anyway), but with the amount of members it isn't goin as fast as it could... Anyway, what I'm tryin to say is, we need mini-plots. You know, just to keep it interestin. So if you have any ideas, post in the rants part of the board. Now, don't be afraid. I'll accept almost anything... Almost...

2008:
As you've probably heard, the site is no longer adminless. I would just like to thank Frost and Carn, y'know, trying to keep the site alive. Sorry, but you don't really get an award for that. I know. It's unfortunate. We now have a 4-person staff team, including Eyolf/Terry, the not-so-new member. Any new members/guests... don't be afraid to post in the cbox, even though you have many reasons to be *cough*. Anyway... I've also sent out an activity check... the first one, I might add. I've been trying to improve a few things, so now would be a good time to make suggestions. Staff members, you don't need to ask to modify anything on the site, including making your own
announcements/
news/etc. But if you're unsure, ask me. Oh, and members, use the OOC board to pass time until... y'know, we get some members back..

2008:
In case you haven't noticed, I have set up both the YOTW and the site playlist... Though no one seems to be overly interested, which is fine. I've also done an OCC RPing board. This, on the other hand, looks to have obtained some interest, which is good. It's summer and all, and when I'm not doin' whatever, I'll have alot of time to improve the site (new skin, in case you haven't noticed that either), and am needing suggestions... really. I don't care what they are, and if you have one, even if it puts down what I've done with the site, TELL ME. Thank you.

Well... We'll have the YOTW and playlist-thing as soon as I figure out how to get two tables next to each other. Heh.

2008:
Okay, well, I've come up with a brilliant idea. We're going to have a YouTube Of The Week (YOTW). Brilliant, isn't it? Yes, I told you it was. And while I'm at it, I'll also add a music playlist-thing. You can find a thread about it in the OOC section as soon as I get to making one.
- Sunday, May 11th:
Yes... I have decided to start over. There isn't much to say, other than, if you wish to help, you can message me. I will create a thread about it as soon as possible.
Winter has finally come to its end. All snow has dispersed and foliage is in full bloom. The previous yellow grasses are returning to their natural greens colours, while the trees are in the process of recuperation, producing the forests we once knew. With new growth comes new life. Prey, although it may not be much, is rejuvenating in numbers to nourish the wolf population. Expect mostly sunny days, but rain storms are on the rise.
Activity:
Currently, Archon is gathering pack members while trying to keep his old. This isn't working too well for him, however, seeing as his pack has now dwindled to only two members. But as loners continue to wander through, things seem to be looking up for the humble pack. Their high tensions stands in their way, though. If they wish to accept new members, the threesome is going to have to sort out their own problems before they can become a well coordinated and self-sufficient pack.
POP STATS:
Current Alpha: Archon Member Count: 2 Current Loners: 4 Pending: 5 TOTAL: 12 wolves

The Clans are living in a reluctant peace. Before then, battles occurred everyday, almost nonstop. A war has been going on throughout the Clans for almost two years. Since then, things in the forest have changed greatly.
Only three Clans remain at the lake. ThunderClan, RiverClan, and ShadowClan still stand, as WindClan and SkyClan fell during the war. Both Clans were completely destroyed. There were survivors, but as far as the three Clans know, they combined together and left toward the mountains. Never to be seen or heard from again. However, a couple warriors from each Clan went missing at the same time of the survivors. So it is believed that they went along with the survivors, but no one can be sure.
During the war, StarClan watched helplessly as the Clans slaughtered without a care. They did everything they could, but nothing would take effect. First, they sent warnings and omens. But little that did. They did everything they could think of, desperately trying to get the Clans back at peace again. Until then, when the Clans were destroyed, StarClan were beyond furious. They took four lives from each leader, only granting five instead of nine. StarClan said they would grant the remaining lives when the leaders agreed to peace. But sadly, it didn’t change.
As the war and bloodshed rang on, StarClan decided to give the Clans a gift to help save lives of the warriors. Each Clan was given two Warrior Healers. Warrior Healers are warriors with a medicine cats’ knowledge of herbs and healing. Though, they aren’t as good as a medicine cat, they know enough to save a live in the heat of battle.
After eight long seasons of death, StarClan finally leashed out in full anger.
During a full moon, the Clans were battling on the ruins of SkyClan and WindClan territory. When, a lunar eclipse shadowed over the moon, darker than any cloud has done. All the cats cowered in fear as the battling stopped. StarClan warriors descended from the sky and demanded the Clans to stop this war or else they would destroy them all and the Clans would be no more. Reluctantly, the leaders agreed with their ancestors to be spared and the Clans went home.
It has been over three moons now since the lunar eclipse. The Clans have resumed Gatherings and medicine cats began sharing tongues with their warrior ancestors again. StarClan holds the extra fours lives above the leaders, waiting till they earned them back. For every two seasons they hold the peace, the leaders will be rewarded with a life. But break it even once and they will resume it back to five lives only and restart the count down.
But even with the bribes and threats from StarClan, the three Clans are still at each others’ necks, waiting for the command to kill. Only three moons have passed. Will it continue or is that as far as the peace can go?
