We've all been seeing a decline in CBMV in the past few months. A solution I have is to advertise more, make new events, and create bot nations. Bot nations in seasons were a lot of fun and helped with engagement within the CBMV and it could help majors and some newgens gain land or make things more challenging for the community. Something we can use against our rivals the RMG is create events and introduce our own lore to the CBMV outside of our nation's with unique abilities and can change ways all nations function. For instance the red root epidemic for CBMV changed and unified lots of nations with one goal and benefits the community. But it also made the development of science to protect nations from viruses. But when events are done it effects the out of season rp and people don't get to choose to stay out of the event depending on what it is. I learned it from SU and it's why I remain active there too. Taking inspiration from the UMNS. The qotd part of the comment section is really fun to me and allows for a more peaceful engagement for the community and can be done by anyone at any time keeping the comments alive and people can still have fun without having cord. Many members are at school without access of the gc and using this could be beneficial. For ffs I feel a concern about host elections and power disputes for everyone. I want to get rid of it and put a blacklist project linked in the studio to update even if the host account is gone. The same thing goes for an event project we update from time to time. It'll make sure power is controlled well and there won't be as much of a burden when someone masses the host. We should make an account for the host and not use it at all as a place holder to prevent ff abuse so fluctuate power better. Junior ffs elected would make things easier for us ffs when making seasons and handling issues within the community. They'd help out behind the scenes and be credited when new projects are released. I think hiring these junior ffs is also crucial since most ffs are around the age of 16 and our time for graduation is coming. Recruiting junior ffs helps pass the batton and keep CBMV running. We give them our mantel and keep cbmv alive. Crackdowns on art and remix trees are very important. Most wars I've seen are just maps being colored in and they all shouldn't be added to the studio it's annoying to look at and there's nothing visually appealing to it in any way. You can respond in war with the map but put some art work for a thumbnail to tell a story better. Also piggybacking off of SU. Researching realism was a great idea and helps keep assets looking neat and less like a 4 year old drawing. Some assets have been getting better I can't lie but new members can't make something in 2 minutes and call it art. It ruins the flow of the community and researching realism for assets helps with both looks and function of something. I cannot stress this enough. Blacklisting/warning someone in publicly can ruin reputations and should only be done in extreme circumstances. A warning for powerplay shouldn't give someone a bad name on the first warning. Everyone is guilty of powerplay at least once and ban systems should be done cautiously and in a respectful way to not make a scene or drama from it. If there's any more I should add let me know
(I also think events from bot nations could allow time travel we just need more non biased ffs)
