Hello all,
So I've practically disappeared from here, and I apologize very much for that. Unfortunately, school is occupying way too much of my time. Second year is brutal, and I can barely find any downtime for myself. To be honest, I don't think I'll be very active anymore since my muse is completely shot.
Unfortunately, I think I've waited too long to post this up, and that most of the active people have left. But here's what I think should be done.
I think Dragon's Eye should close down, at least for now.
Nearly three years ago, I created this site, and during that time, not much has changed; not the graphics, the layout, nothing really. I keep saying that I'll revamp the site, but I never get around to it.
So what I really want to do is create a completely new site. I want to be able to spend more time improving key aspects; solidifying the layout of the land, giving a more expansive history, and possibly improving the rules.
What I would be asking from the members who are loyal to this site is something simple: if you still wish to follow me around, then please, don't delete your account. Once the new site is up and running, then I'll be able to contact you and tell you where the new site is.
DE will stay open for a while, and nothing on it will be deleted, so no would have to go scrambling to get their character specs. After a while though, I will put it into maintenance mode.
This is just an idea of course, and any input on the subject is welcome. Though I'm pretty set on going through with this, if you would like to help, then please add my email so we can keep in touch.
That's all I have to say. Thank you all so much for staying with the site for as long as you have, but I think this is it.
Again, thank you all so much. ^_^

It's been a good run <3 -sighs as she looks around at the site- I'm really going to miss this place: It's always been like a second home to me, and there are so many wonderful memories tied into it. It's really sad to see DE go.
I, for one, will still be ghosting around the site at least every few days...if anything, just because it's kinda hard just to let go. If you are planning on starting up a new site though, Rad, you can be sure to count me in <3 I still remain your faithful member.
To everyone else, thanks so much for the great times ^^ It's been wonderful getting to know you all, and I sincerely hope that our paths will cross again in the future. <3

Nearly Three Years? Already?...
It feels like yesterday I wrote that history for the land... lol
I guess time really does fly when you are having fun, I'll stay with you and the site no matter where it goes Rad. I do think perhaps the ideas we all have for this universe have outgrown the site, and perhaps a move is warranted. At the moment it just seems that we have alot of ideas but nowhere to put them other than in a discussion topic...
Even if the site doesn't move, perhaps closing it for a while will give us all the chance to think about where we want it to go, without having to tend to it at the same time. I think perhaps the Admins and Mods should get together and discuss their opinions, what their honest views are, what they would like to change in the new site, what they would like to keep etc.
Either way I'm not bothered really, but I will stay with the site as long as it exists, even if it is a ghost site...

It's sucks that this place is going to be closing for a bit, I really do love this place. However, I think it does need a revamp, so I'm looking forward to v2! I'm sticking around. <3

Oh snap, closing down? That is very, very, very saddening. But still...
BIGGER, FASTER, STRONGER, SEXIER! That is how the next site shall be >=D
But until the site undergoes its Robocop treatment, I shall be paying close attention to DE. Never before have I devoted myself to a site like I have with this. Tis been a wild ride of ooh's, ah's and OM EM GEE's. If you need any help at all with anything Rad, I'll be here to help in any way I can. I'm sure we all will.
Hope to see you all again soon guys.

You can count me in as well. I'll probably be off and on since I'm running a very active site of my own, but this was one of the first places I started with, so it's hard to just let it go. I'll definitely be around for the next site, and can even help with graphics if you wish.

*cries*
I may have been inactive for a long time, but I would have loved to see it go back to normal. Since it seems too late however I look very foreward to the new site <3
I may not have been here as the other members here, but I loved it a lot.. Well.
I hope that the new site will look better and go smoother.. ^^ I will be sure to be one of the first to register again X3
