Why we did this is to reassure everyone that a storyline going to the graveyard isn't a terrible thing, and it's not the end of the line for that roleplay! Sometimes things go inactive; with so many players involved and roleplays being what they are (with our lovely and intricate plots~), activity waxes and wanes, and when it wanes to the point that it goes inactive that doesn't mean it was a bad idea or that the players weren't as dedicated, it just means the rp hit a rough spot. 

As the link explains, our roleplay staff is here to help you out with activity when you need it! We bump your OOC boards ( make sure you follow Saturn's accepted Storyline Submission form in the first post to help them out in finding it!) when we see things are starting to get quiet to remind people to post, and can help with sending activity PMs and setting and enforcing rp activity rules on your storyline if that is the way you want to go! We're always here to help and our inboxes are open for questions and offering suggestions to keep your storyline going!

In that link you'll also find some suggestions that creators and players can to do keep the storyline moving, and things that they can do when reviving their inactive/graveyarded storyline to breathe new activity into it. 

And remember, the revival process isn't a nightmare.   You fill out the 5 question revival form and submit it and our lovely Lady of the Graveyard, Sailor Saturn, will do the rest and tell you when it's done. 

The Graveyard isn't something bad XD It's our way of organizing the boards
