directrice | [the suggestion box]

THE SUGGESTION BOX:

On Day 1, the suggestion box rules were unlocked! Note that these rules are for OOC REFERENCE ONLY, and you will have to have your character figure them out ICly some way or another! If it helps, Akira has posted an IC version of these rules on the box for characters to read (courtesy of LWJ). But I'll enumerate on them OOCly for you:

1) The suggestion box will not take multiple requests at a time! If you write down more than one, it will yell at you :(

2) You can request one item at a time from the suggestion box! This item can be anything, such as an item from home (a weapon, a trinket, an article of clothing), or even something you didn't have at home (like medicine, sunglasses, whatever). You can request an item once an OOC month, starting on the 1st and ending to the last day of said month. There's a size limit on items, though: the box won't give you anything that is bigger than like. . . a person. So no cars or motorcycles or the like!

3) Not all suggestions will be granted! I reserve the right to throw rocks at your character instead. I'm sorry in advance.

4) Bigger setting changes (I'll let you guess what that means) will need more than one character making the suggestion for them to be implemented. To make this easy OOCly, you can have one character make the initial suggestion and then just have a bunch of people +1-ing it for my purposes. How many people are needed to implement bigger setting changes? About ten or so! Once a suggestion is made and processed, I as a mod wil add it to the setting whenever we have a bit of lull time ICly. I won't be giving you buildings every week, for instance! I may wait a few weeks between setting updates depending on how busy we are. It all depends!

5) I reserve the right to change the rules of the suggestion box if I get so many requests that I start dying, sweats. But I don't foresee this being an issue, so!!

Now that the rules have been unlocked, you do not have to comment to the suggestion box to get your monthly items from home/small items! In fact, I'd 100% prefer you not comment and that you just handwave your character got them somehow. However you are free to keep commenting with other suggestions for funsies b/c the box still has some fun little features! And ofc, if your character got their monthly item and is trying again, please also comment so I can give you a SPECIAL SURPRISE that is not a rock I promise. Maybe.

You probably already know this, but there was a big stupid argument about whether or not the library should have rules yesterday. In the end the ones who want rules won, but it was really, really, annoyingly dramatic to get there.

So we were wondering if you could put in a security system of some kind. Nothing harmful, but something that'll peacefully stop people from being destructive or unnecessarily lewd inside the building.

Maybe that's not in line with what the Warden wants us to do, but I didn't go and declare the library my kingdom just to be unable to enforce my laws. So if we could have something less chaotic than yesterday that would be really helpful. We're planning on keeping things clean and organized ourselves, so if doing the labour makes a difference in your opinion of what we're trying to accomplish, then great.

Also, please change the sign to read "Nightray Library Kingdom". It's stupid but I gotta stick to my guns or everybody's gonna regret it.

[Lan Wangji would +1 this request if alerted to it but would not aid and abet the "kingdom" part if he knew that was being added on. hubris is forbidden.]
