Welcoming our first staff member and we now have a discord.
Just a quick blog to welcome our new staff member Bacon_Space. Bacon reached out to me a few weeks ago with interest to help out with character data and other general site stuff. At the time I didn't have a system in place but today we have launched an admin panel with roles. He has already been busy adding characters and as you can see on our new staff pages here.
I am sure many of us watched SilentSentrys 14?15? hour stream or at least as much of it as we were able to. When watching it however I felt compelled to do something I have sort of been pushing off for a long time. I have often wondered if I should push a community aspect to the site, a place for discussion and showcase of RP (primarily GTA RP). It seemed like a lot of work with potential pitfalls along the way and definitely not something I could do alone.
These two coinciding events have resulted in a fairly fleshed out back end for the site. It is a bit bare bones but it has room for growth. I actually also created a discord a few months back but have decided to finally go forward with it. It is for site related discussion and just any GTA RP discussion in general. Ongoing happenings or good history links of events would be great but as it is a place for the community we shall see how it is received and what people want from it.
If anyone else would like to help the site in whatever way please feel free to contact me via the feedback form or join the discord and let me know. I am fully open to things we currently do not provide but people want to offer. Want to write articles? Write showcases of clips / blogs of events? Alerts of interesting live events curated by staff? Make a CSS theme that doesn't look like its from 10 years ago? Lets talk.
Hope you are all enjoying the site.
Edit: Oh and the discord link can be found here and in the menubar.
