(Goldenmoon Dawn Suggested I put this in a few places to get attention put on it. Original thread: (
http://www.ttlg.com/forums/showthread.php?t=144064))
I've been suuper inactive but it's all been for a good reason - well, I think it's a good reason. I've been doing a lot research and compiling of data (though I'm not even close to the 10% mark) and at this point I'm little more than tired and worried that my work may not be as fruitful as I'd hoped.
So, I wanted to ask the most dedicated of fans of Thief if this is something that they think would be successful. There's a lot of wonderful FanAuthors here and the missions I've played and been the most zen-like experience I could ever feel.
However, I have another love that I want to share and I've been desiring to make it a reality ever since . . . oh, I'd say around 2005 or so. That love in particular is text-based roleplaying, the joy of writing a plot with another person and seeing it play out into a illustrious story line! However . . . the distinct lack of known members in such a fandom has made me feel like it's a useless dream. Until now, that is - I actually found that people DO roleplay characters of Thief and have even created some impressive original characters.
So, I want to ask if anyone here has ever been interested in a roleplay site about Thief?
You could say 'Just go to Fanfiction.Net' - but I've been there for a long time. It's usually stayed around 100-110 stories . . . which means it hasn't really changed in 10 years xD That's depressing as hell lol
Let me know if you're interested in my progress so far and I'll send you what I've got (If I'm allowed, I'd like to post the link here, but I dunno how that goes). Also, in a bid to find the background image that you'll see (slightly edited to match the motif of the site I was going for) can someone tell me who made that? I had it on my computer for QUITE a while and I can't seem to find the original artist.
Thank you very much and I apologize if I may be overstepping my bounds but suggesting something like this. I am a very big fan but . . . I'm just gonna admit - making fan missions is hard and my talent lies in writing, art and voicing (kinda.)

We've had some people do fanfics before, Digital Nightfall's Cosas stuff, theBlackman's thing, fett's spoof thing... And if you go back far enough people used to roleplay right in the forums, in threads.
So people might be interested in this. Good luck!
For the record of course you could *write* for an FM. I think there are builders that are good at building but not at story or writing that could probably use your talents.

Oh, I know! This was the place I would go when FF.Net didn't have what I needed and it's got really great writers! I've never written for a mission before but I wouldn't mind - I've just never put myself out there before.
As the the idea, I'm glad there are some that would be interested! =] When I have more info down, I'll give ya'll links~

If you posted this in several places, you may wish to close the secondary threads, but include have a link from them to the original, so that all the discussion is in one place?

Added link to original thread at the top~
