From the perspective of a total newcomer, it’s a rather frustrating experience right now. Kinda was looking forward to enroll as a student, or rather work my way up to become one – but the application didn’t get through it seems. I got pretty much instantly accepted in the cititzens and roleplay group.
Then I wanted to enroll as a librarian, but…[Read more]

I didnt even know there was a university so maybe the first step in getting people to play there is to advertise it.

Koda, I’d be happy to roleplay with you, I’m always up for RP. If you are interested in doing something in rp I’m all for it. But I may also bring up some other IC ideas to. 🙂

Great ideas, and I agree with a lot of your thoughts. The parties would be a good way to get people to Black Bottom for sure.

Come on down! Meet the faculty, maybe shadow a student for a day or even just hang out at some of the restaurants on campus. The sushi is excellent! We’d love to have you and find a story that works for you.

I’m all for donating, but the forced thing is a bit sidelining. But I get the expenses of sim also. I cannot yet actually rp there because my character is not 18. Despite IC she is already graduated school she can’t rp there yet. I do think it might be more beneficial and enhance activity if people were not forced to do that. Because even if you…[Read more]

Right now I feel (maybe Im wrong, but that too is an issue since I rp as faculty), but there is a bit of chaos in the faculty group, with lots of things up in the air. This may be just me, but it has held me back from classes since I still dont have a clear answer as to my status icly.

I would have liked at least a quick rp, even a notecard where…[Read more]

I would be willing to pay to keep the sim up, maybe raise rent prices? Things do cost money (servers, decor, SL fees) but, then, the RP has to be free, in the style of Hathian, and not restricted in too realistic ways (I mean, Hathian is the town that had loose elephants running down Bourbon St, and that disease that infected lots of people! And…[Read more]

It is different than the rest of the sim for sure, which can be confusing. I’d suggest come over to CU and start RPing. Myself or other faculty would be happy to give you a tour.  Even while you are trying to meet your hours to “pay for school” you can become a part of the CU community.

Hi Dia! I can understand that frustration. It can be discouraging, for sure. I do also get that it’s very expensive to run a sim, I can’t imagine. So, I suppose you could say I see both sides of the matter here.

There is an option to put in 20 hrs of rp with a job on campus to get financial aid. I don’t think it’s super unrealistic and adds to…[Read more]

Why is this a thing? its just RP why would people be forced to work? Yeah sure its a college but what are people really looking for in University/College RP? Not paying for stuff. You aren’t even required to have a job in the rest of the sim. I was not aware of this but I would not pay to rp at the university sorry. We don’t make money so why…[Read more]

But if classes are planned and advertised, people would show up. I would show up.

If any classes are being held, I have not heard about them.

The first step I can think of right now is to just start rping there non stop, and make it more appealing for others. Not sure who’s enrolled and who’s not, but if anyone would like to play and start syncing up LMK!

I am sorry to hear they didn’t work for you. As we all know CD’s group inviters even in the main parts of town can be flaky sometimes so I’d suggest maybe try again in a day or two.

I know a few students that have got invites, worked their 20 hours but then said that the time worked didn’t show in their HUD as time worked, nor did they get…[Read more]

Hey Koda, thanks for the reply/input. Honestly, the tuition thing is what I ran into.

1) I’ve had the group before and it sucks having to pay again.

2) I went to join a job to get financial aid, and the inviter simply wouldn’t work. Despite every angle and trick to sl taken.

If I was someone who didn’t know to go to forums, discuss these…[Read more]
