IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT
Hello everyone! Your friendly neighbourhood administrator, Artemis, here.
There's no doubt that September has been a killer month. Everyone has been so busy with work, school or life in general and it shows in the site activity.
The staff met tonight to discuss a resolution, and what we decided was we have a few more ideas before we throw in the towel *ba dum tiss*. Please take a second to read some big changes around the site below. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to let me know.
From a personal standpoint, Chasing Dusk was built as a place to escape drama, and to have a chillaxing environment to roleplay at our leisure. We've built an amazing community and it's been a slice getting to know you all. I really hope that we can figure out some ways to get muse going again, because I have so many plots I want to fulfil and so many of you I have yet to roleplay with yet. Thank you everyone - you truly are a fabulous community, and once again shows how amazing Warriors lovers are.
Staff Changes
Probably the biggest news, and alas the saddest - Elaedria has stepped down as administrator and the leader of JungleClan. Life is just too busy on their end right now and while Ela has put in SOOOO much into CD (we wouldn't be here today without Ela's amazing writing, ideas, coding and hard work) we know that life comes first and we hope Ela will still hang around in discord and roleplay with us casually. Thank you Ela for everything, and we wish you the best with school this year!
High Rank Changes
There are going to be some inactive high ranks that need filling, which calls for some restructuring. We are giving all high rank holders a chance to decide whether they want to continue on in that capacity, but once decisions have been made some changes will be made which means there may be some auditions very soon. We appreciate your patience in this matter as we know it can be a bit frustrating!
Other Changes Around The Site
Word Minimum → MINIMUM IS NOW 100 WORDS, for everybody. This is effective immediately. We hope relaxing on the word minimum means we can get through more character development faster, and less of a muse blockage for ya'll.
Tribe Cat Purchases → While it will remain a paid item, for the remainder of September and possibly some of October Tribe purchases are going to be 25% off in the shop, along with some other items going on sale too!
Forbidden Romances → You no longer need to pay for these, nor is there a limit. Every forbidden romance that is engaged will come with a 50/50 dice roll of whether it is discovered by the high ranks of your group. Having a FR litter will become a shop purchase instead.
High Rank Quotas → We are completely removing quotas for high ranks, however the requirement of logging in once a week is being put in place instead for now while this is up for discussion.
Can I have my say in the future of CD?
ABSOLUTELY.
We are looking for opinions, suggestions and just your feedback in general about how the site proceeds. There is a lot changing all at once but we don't want to cut the community we've built out of our decision making.
Above everything, Chasing Dusk wouldn't be here without you guys and we value your opinions SO freaking much.
PLEASE fill out this lil survey to let us know what you think we can do to improve the muse for everyone on the site. It's anonymous and we don't bite!
