Formatting for Miscellaneous RP and Special Events

Hey, so currently we have sections for rp's within the LAW arena consisting of the ring for most matches, the backstage area, the gym, and a promos section. This current structure raises two concerns for me.

1) for rp invovling areas outside the arena and other such places (threads at characters' houses, apartments, the beach, etc), what should I call that section and should it go with the rest under "LAW Arena"? I know on afw, people were allowed to put that kinda stuff under "backstage". If that works for people here, that's fine. But if there's a nicer alternative or if people wanna pitch ideas, please do.

2) PPV's and special events being listed under "LAW Arena" would likely make that section look rather long. I was considering the idea of making a new section and calling it "Kōrakuen Hall/Tokyo Dome" . And listing forums for ppv's/special events/ and so on, under that. PPV events can consist of a card we plan out together as a community. I was thinking for "special events", I call it something like "Main Events" or "High Profile Matches" etc, and perhaps require admin approval to post topics. That way, if it gets flooded with regular matches, I can move them to the ring appropriately.

Nothing I've said here is concrete and I'm pretty tired at the time I'm posting this, so if I said anything that got you up in arms or if any of these ideas sounds bad, please feel free to let me know and to suggest your own. And as always, thank you very much. None of this would be possible without you guys.

If you want to make a difference, you could just make a thread that has 'Outside of LAW Arena" or something. I get you, and I like the idea because it adds more organization and separates stuff from the backstage, instead of it being all cluttered. But that's just me. We all love brawls in public don't we? :P

The second idea is what intrigues me the most. Since the main events are the most important match on the card, I feel like we do need to add a bit of 'special' to them! Also I do like the idea of having the PPV being called something like Korakuen Hall/Tokyo Dome!

Great ideas as always Winner! Can't think of much to add to this.

Great Ideas as always Winner and if the only things you need permission for are to have a specially match or to be in a ppv match it is better in my opinion.

I think we've discussed Special Events before, and the idea would be great. It can be one-off matches, off-ppv title defences, or feud enders. Likely more.

What about a thread section entitled "Living Area" (Or similar), where, say for example, I'd post for Karen. It'd be called "Karen Starring's Home" (or similar again) and every time something happens that's interesting or deserves a reaction, I update I post to it. So maybe she loses a feud, I'd then post to the Home page having her react to it, or invite people round etc. We could alternatively just do a new thread every-time there's something to post (so instead of just one Home thread, you'd have a Home thread for your character every-time something happens) but that might discourage people from posting, especially if it's just a small update on their lives.
