Does anyone else spend a lot of time making up characters only to painfully realize that you would either need to write a story or use them in a compatible RP for there to be any point in making them? Because I do... Ech. It's annoying. I'm sick of storywriting and (kind of) suck at it, but at the same time I don't know how to, nor do I want to go through the immense trouble to, start an RP.
And no, I wouldn't put them in the Semi-serious RP. It's too open and, while the setting would technically allow them to be there, without the setting they were meant to be in a lot of the point would be lost.
And no, they are not at all compatible with the Serious Business RP.
My thoughts:
Because all the stored data - a hell of a lot - would need to be shifted to another server, or kept up to date on both. That's what I think, anyway, under the assumption that the servers which hold the data are the same ones which give access to the site through the internet, which for all I know could not be the case, and probably isn't since I know next to nothing on the subject of hardware.
