I'd like to follow this review with a few short notes about the forum. We were in a bad place this March, it was the worst month for posts in forum history (

We've also had the worst individual weeks and days this year, but I'll digress and get to the positive stuff:When I was looking at the numbers in mid-May, I wasn't sure that it'd be possible to make it to a thousand posts for the month, and that we'd have to get a big post/activity/motivation drive out to reclaim June. I was gladly proved wrong though (

I think we can do it again in June, and instead of being proven wrong by underestimating all of you, I'd like to be proven right in believing that we are on the path to a lasting game community that we can all be proud of.Sorry if all of that was a little too inside and irrelevant to RP itself, but I just wanted those who are interested to get some insight on where we've been and where we could be going (hopefully up). Thank you so much.
