I was thinking, we should have a thread that contains little snippets of things about us that might be useful in determining who you would talk to. It's a bad comparison, but think of it like one of those online dating sites. You give some information, maybe you like chicken and someone else does also and they PM you and you have a conversation. I got this idea from the thread we have that has all the real names of WG members. I'm thinking this thread would be the same in format. There could be a section for RS interests and then RL interests. It wouldn't be long and would go something like this: Name: 1colonel1 RS interests: I enjoy training attack and doing clues when I can RL interests: I really love computers and am interests in medicine and science If you want you can also have an optional section for some personal information such as age and name, and if this gets big enough maybe the two threads could be merged. This would encourage people to talk to each other because they know that they share something. It's always easier to befriend people when you know you've already got something in common with them so you've already got your ice breaker out of the way. I think this will really help the newer members. Anyways, if this gets started up, my example is my entry. --------------------   |

Whether or not the council has time to work on such an idea is a different story, but I do support it. --------------------  |

I mean, I'd be more than willing to do the work to keep it going if I knew it would actually help. -------------------- |
