for reference, the current restrictions on travel are as follows:
now, after brief discussions, there are several opinions on how much some of these rules should be lifted. i can not voice them for those people with accuracy so i will leave them to say their piece. thus, i will explain my own argument:
due to the size of the active player community on this site, i do not think it is healthy to lock characters within a single country at a time. it forces us to congregate into one place while leaving the others inactive. if we spread out, we're left role playing with one other person or no one at all.
even back when the site had more active members, it was very limiting. back during the kou civil war, it prevented a lot of players from leaving the country board. a lot of people felt stuck and it caused tensions.
it should be the player's choice what to do with their own character's plot and timeline. if someone wishes to lock themselves to one country at a time, that should be their choice. it shouldn't be forced.
however, being able to participate in the events in one country at a time is a rule i can support.
in short, i believe this site would be a lot more active between us if we could write in multiple countries at once. i would like to see the travel restrictions taken away entirely but we should keep the event restriction.
