Crossposted because it's that important.

ENROLLMENT IS CLOSED

If you are not in the list that I posted a few days ago, have not been approved for posting at

fandomhigh directly by

principalconnor you DO NOT belong here and will be forcibly removed. Enrollment is closed at this time and unless you are an approved player, you may not post in the various

fandomhigh communities or in the individual player journals. Period. Full stop.

There have been several instances of people who do not belong to this game reported to me. Unless and until enrollment is opened again and your character is personally approved by

principalconnor, you may not post here. Period. In light of attracting people who have not read the rules and are showing up with duplicates of existing characters, something which is also strictly against the rules, I am also closing

fandomtownies to membership until

principalconnor gets back.

Only principalconnor can approve new students.

jerusalem_s is the right hand of God here, people, and what he says goes.

No one, and I mean NO ONE else is authorized to do anything when it comes to student/teacher/townie permissions.

This may eventually change but, as of right now, it's just the two of us... and I know damn well she hasn't approved anyone except our new webmaster in quite some time.

If this persists, everyone here should have these people friended and we will allow 'friends only' posts until the intruders desist.

Please be polite, but inform non-members that they cannot play here without first waiting for open enrollment and then being approved directly by

principalconnor.

Thank you.

Just doing meta-nattering here, not really agreeing or disagreeing with your comment specifically...

To a certain extent I think there's always going to be cliques of some kind, esp given a pseudo-high school environment. I mean Chloe and Angelus aren't exactly going to be hanging out together without some kind of good reason.

Unfortunately the flip side of that is that cliques are a double edged sword: great fun for the people in them, not so much for those on the outside who can't figure out how to get in.

The earlier made suggestion of mixers might be an idea. Or maybe just more external events that all of the characters can react to in their own way. I know for me it can be frustrating to try to get something going but be limited by how many characters my boy can actually interact with. And if one of those players gets caught up IRL or what have you, there goes the six degrees of FH that could've gotten Angelus doing something with somebody new.

External events, OTOH, give everybody even more common ground, so that might help act as an ice breaker of sorts.

As I say, I'm just riffing here.

Same here with the not agreeing/disagreeing - just kinda commenting. *waves to Angelus while she's at it, grinning*

As for the commenting in communities where you're not 'cleared'? I've really been trying to make sure to kinda police my own self and limit my posting to the ooc, icon and townie communities (since I'm only based in the town, at the moment - I'd like to attend FH too, but if that makes more work for anybody, just let me know, hmm?). When I'm in town and available, though, I try to interact with as many people as possible... and it's not a chore, either, not at all - Shane's a people person, she loves meeting new people especially pretty girls *cough*. :D I mean, so far, she's met a vampire, a guy from the 14th century, a time-traveler dude, a talking dog-wolf-cat thingy, a really sexy mutant chick, a slayer chick, a charmed chick (geesh, seeing a pattern here? hehe)... and she's loved every minute of it.

But yeah, that's a thought - instead of hanging out at the high school or in the dorms all the time, an idea might possibly be to go and hang out at the pub or at Deb's shop or go gamble away your allowance for the week at Geoff's place, occasionally. Really - the townies are all quite friendly folks :)

I compeletely agree, I can definitely see both sides of this. I think just as long as everyone is willing to respond to all posts made to them, that interaction will happen. It sometimes takes time to know people and it's natural that you interact with those that you are familiar with.

Exactly. Heck even I have moments of being reluctant to just randomly walk up to a character b/c I can't tell if I might be interrupting something. But the times when people have randomly walked up to Angelus have always resulted in something. It might not be life-long friendship (...'cause, Angelus) but it's fun to see what happens.

I suppose we should all just take the chance on randomly tapping people on the shoulder and knowing that if we are interrupting something then we can be told in an ooc comment.

*nods* Definitely. I think unless a post is clearly labeled as marked, you can pretty much post anywhere. I make a point of commenting to anything directed to me.

And now I'm stuck with the image of Angelus sitting in on an MFCD meeting as sympathiser and I just broke my brain.

Angelus isn't so much a fan of Celine ~~loves the ballet though~~ but Angel OTOH... ;)

*snickers*

It's just a cover! There should be sex ed amongst the boys... or something. (Although we really should get Titanic on video now.)

Somehow I feel like even Angelus likes Titanic. And not just because he finds it funnier than most. ;)

And hey, get him invited to a meeting and he'll show up. There's always that pesky "Literally can't come through the door otherwise" problem...

Hee! Sure, we'll be setting up invites in the future (either by Crichton or Cameron) as we're thinking of doing it on monday. I'm sure we'll find a way of getting him inside.

Heh heh heh.

Figure if nothing else he could swing by just for shits and giggles. Besides, you know how much he just loves getting to know his fellow students. ;)

Just as long as he can stand the slashy subtext. *grins*

Well he is as straight as a paperclip, so I imagine he'll find a way to deal. You know, for school unity.

*nods* They're all straight, really. And Crichton posted to the dorms with the announcement so it's official.

Woot! And of course Angelus is completely straight. Haven't you seen the way he dresses? ;)

All black and emo? *nods* Very straight. ~~Poor Spike.~~

Plus he's well groomed and puts product in his hair. QED.

He should definitel talk to Lee about the hair products.

Awww. A boy after his own ~~thighs~~ heart!

See, that's exactly what MFCD is all about ~~spreading the gay love~~.

That's a message he can get behind. Literally.

Exactly! I mean, Shane's character is basically from 'real-life,' modern day Hollywood... so she really has no canonical cause to be dealing with vampires and wolf-things and mutants. Really, Shane's so non-judgemental, I think she could probably have a really good, interesting conversation with DeathnBinky and not bat an eyelash... lol That's just how she is...

However... that's kinda the whole point to this. That we all get out there and meet new characters and interact and have a good time.

I wanna give so much props to the people who are doing so much with their characters that they're fun to play with even if I personally don't know their fandom from a whole in the wall. I might not be able to tell if they're in character or not, but they still make it enjoyable.

Heehee... same here. I mean, I'm not at all familiar with

_red_xiii_ or

ten_and_chips's fandoms, but we managed to have some great interaction last night at the diner... it was such fun.

And Angelus needs to swing by again for another chat! :D

He so does! As does Angel, if he's ever around.

Most definitely. *decisive nod!*
