Goals for 2015 - RP Repository

Posted by Kim on January 7, 2015, 6:25pm

It's the first full week of January, and I've been spending a lot of time planning RPR's event and update schedule for 2015.

Did you know that this April the RP Repository will be turning 5 years old? I'm planning a blow out celebration. In fact, I'm so excited for it that I started working on the events for our fifth epic week right after last year's epic week. I can't wait!

Over the last five years, the site has grown tremendously. The ways in which we use the site has changed and evolved. And I have learned a lot of lessons. So for our fifth year, most of my goals involve applying those lessons so that the site can really mature.

Here's a sampling of what I want to do with the site this year:

I have a list of almost a hundred things that needs to be double checked and improved on all of our templates, to accommodate the widest range of uses possible. This should bring even our oldest templates up to snuff!
I'm going to continue tweaking our small-screen version of the site to be ever more convenient
I want to expand the RP Finder to make it an even more effective way to find RPs to join
I want to add categorization and organization of characters for those of you with lots!
I'm going to overhaul how Epic users do customization of both their own and character profiles, to make it easier than ever before
Live chat via PMs!
A more streamlined and helpful new member orientation
I'm going to expand the available gender-options for players beyond male/female/other

It's going to be a packed year for the site!

My personal goal is to become a better dancer, and maybe perform more often.

What are you excited for in 2015?

Next: Downtime hopefully fixed » « Previous: Winter Art Trade!

I really want to thank you for brining the mobile version up to snuff. I use it off and on all day to check stuff and it has gotten so much better!

My goals? Reply sooner to these wonderful people who I rp with. And do better in school. You never know, I might be your doctor one day! Lol

Sweet! Personally, I would enjoy live chat through PMs more than anything else, but it all sounds like a great bundle of ideas! Can't wait!

My goals are to get more exercise into my daily routine, visit the US to meet up with Ross (and you!!), spend my first Christmas with Ross, challenge myself to knit more complex things and make more wonderful friends.
