I didn't know what to name this one >.<

Remaining Issues/Changes/Ideas/Info
Official Helper vs Level Five/Reg User= So I think some people think that they can’t help unless they are an official helper or higher, and the only difference is that Helpers can do and help with more official things that normally regular users wouldn’t have permission to do. Like help check claims, but there’s actually very little that Official Helpers can do that Regular users can’t if they want to help out. I think as dept heads we each need to be more proactive about keeping a page that says what projects we’re working on, what things others can help with and stuff. Ideas And Suggestions Forum/Board= We need to get users more active in coming up with ideas for activities, events, contests, fun things, and stuff. I mean I know we can’t just let anyone do anything they want or ask for, but I think users right now are sometimes afraid to give any ideas. There should be a place to talk about ideas with others so the ideas can become community discussions. The more people there are helping come up with ideas, the easier it would be on the Admin Team. There’s a lot that needs to be done on the wiki with Activities stuff, especially fixing the older activities like Quests and Missions and counsellor challenges and making them more interesting to people so maybe users will want to do them and actually finish them. Camp Quests= So i realise this isn’t like dead dead, but from what I’ve been told it’s also not nearly as active as it was at the beginning either. I know at one point a change was made in how challenging for lt or head worked with needing to have led quests, but now I’m wondering if requiring less of users has just made the wiki even more stagnant about roleplay, which last I checked was why we’re all here to begin with. I don’t really have an answer, but I had some ideas I guess:

Being able to go on a quest should be bumped down to as soon as you have a claimed character, I mean Percy had a quest pretty much as soon as he got to camp.
 * 1) Right now the only rule is that you wait a month after creating a character, and IF the current head or Lt has a quest led, then to challenge you also need a quest led. What if we do it so that you have to wait a month OR lead a quest. Now, I know that sometimes quests can take forever, but maybe the incentive of being able to challenge before the month will push people to actually post.
 * 2) I think we should pull the rule that a user can only lead one quest at a time, I mean if they have the time to lead more and want to, let’s let them because it gets people active.
 * 1) I think we should make it that you only need to be a level 2 to lead a quest, it gives the user a couple of weeks to learn their way around the wiki
 * 2) I think users who check quest claims, well some, are being too strict. I mean I read over the rules and asked Bach about it so I could understand them better, but they seem pretty vague, yet when people check them they get so picky about stuff. Bach told me that the only difference between a quest and a regular roleplay is that it should be, well she said “not foofy shit” basically like not some generic personal roleplay you do every day. It needs to be thought out, have a beginning, an end, kinda like a story. But they still need to make sense with our wiki, I mean people can’t go looking for the elder wand from Harry Potter or competing in the Hunger Games for Katniss or make like a god or goddess do something that doesn’t make any sense at all.
 * 3) If it’s a reasonable enough quest I think we should allow as few as 2 characters total. I also think that users should be able to rp more than one character on a quest. Maybe quests would go faster if like 2 users could each rp two of their characters, making 4 on the quest but less schedules to worry about.
