Site Revamp: Happening Now!

[Wil Marsh]

Happy December, everyone!

We know we haven’t been around as much as we normally are and we haven’t been poking and prodding to get things moving. There’s a reason for that!

We’ve been working on revamping the site a little bit. Don’t worry, it’s not a total overhaul. We’re just trying to create a more solid foundation than we had when we started, and give SU a bit of a fresh start. We’re currently writing the Hunter’s Journal, which is basically a species guide to help everyone in creating their characters, playing with their characters, and sorting out the physiology and logistics of different beings. There will also be information about weapons and tools used to combat supernatural beings.

We’re going to condense the boards a little and reorganize the placement of things. We’ll let you know before we do that, since it’ll require we move some threads around and such.

Doing this revamp gives everyone an opportunity to figure out where they want their characters to be in their plottage and relationships. If you’d like to skip your character ahead a bit to get them to a place you want them to be or you want to give your character a bit of a fresh start, archiving unfinished threads and such, shoot one of us (Sam/Jo or Greg/Ruby) a private message, or reply here if you’re comfortable doing that. Just let us know which threads you want to drop and where you want your character to be at the beginning of this revamp. Also, if you’d like to revamp your character, this is an opportunity for you to do that. Just let us know and submit a new application for your character so we can review it.

If you have suggestions for the site and for the plots going on, or if you have concerns and questions, feel free to voice them here or through PM. We want to make this site awesome and active and we want to hear from all our lovely and loyal members who have stuck it out with us this long.

Thanks,
The Supernatural: Unforgiven Staff

[ZZZ - Dean - RETIRED]

I am a big fan of fresh starts so I say hooray! Since I've been off sick, I kinda feel like all the old threads I had been doing, I have been away from for far too long to start them back up again. The mojo I had for them is lost.

It's not such a bad thing, a lot of those old plots we had been working on for a long, long time. I also had too may things going on at once, I struggled to keep track of where I was and what I was doing. As much as I like a little spontaneous threading, Dean needs a little more focus. So I'm gonna try and give him a continuous story arc that has a proper timeline and makes more sense than him just running around doing lots of things with random people.

At the moment, I'm concentrating on his relationship with Annali because what I love most about writing Dean are his emotions and that inner turmoil he has of trying to save everyone so he can find some kind of redemption for what he did in Hell.

I do miss my Sammy too, there's just not enough brotherly snark these days and that's what makes up the rest of dear old Dean. Not everything has to be doom and gloom, I could write Dean in the laundrette just being goofy and I'd still be happy. Whatever plots you guys come up with, I'm sure I'll find something for Dean to do.

Enough late night rambling for now, I'm sure I'll think of something else to say once I've posted this.....

I agree with Dean. There are a few story lines I have forgotten about (Such as one of the ones we were doing Dean lol. I think we both forgot about it), but on the other hand I don't mind keeping them going. Anyways, I'm up for whatever though. I'm also up for changing Cas a little more. I'm not sure if this board will go season 5 or not, but I'd love to play Cas a little more rebellious against the angles and working with Dean and Sam a bit more as well as going through changes as he has been.

Anyways, that's my feelings.

Also I absolutely LOVE the future thread. I love playing Cas differently, more human like so I hope we don't loose that thread.

Revamps are always fun. I have no two cents to throw in but I'm game for whatever is to come!

Awesome. I'm glad you guys are on board with this. I agree, I think the site has been in a slump for a while, and hopefully this revamp will pull us out of that.

We also sent an email out for people who may not check the board regularly, so hopefully we'll hear from those people, too.

That's all I got for now. We'll keep you posted, and keep checking this thread for your opinions. Thanks for your input, everybody! Keep it coming if you got it.
