Certainly, two teams at the same time sounds not to good.

I won't hide that I've said some discouraging things about the projects current state, nor will I hide that I don't expect to see it finished, but I would love to be surpised.

With that in mind, on my better days I'm a dedicated worked, and this project and the people who have worked on it have always had special importance to me as a second home at silgrad, never liked the way things Vvardenfell got things done, always felt out of the loop at skyrim, and nothing else ever got off the ground. Besides that, I worked with FLESH and inhereted some of his enthuesiasm for the project. So though my knowledge of happenings may be limited by my intermittant reading of the forums, and my vision of Valenwood may be dated by a few leaders, I'd still be willing to assist in any capacity and in any position of authority, from nil to core, you'd take me in.

What can I say? Trees are pretty.

agreed. his TR showcase back in october 07 was mediocre, and he didn't stick around to fix it (which may have been partly our fault for a semi-slow response, but what can I say, were busy people). From what I can see, he has attempted to joining/start several mods with mixed results. he quit TR, left (or got baned from, according to akavir posts) a asian mod, started a zombie mod (not sure what happened to it) and is now on starwars. for me, personally, commitment is very important and he aint showing much of it so far.

Has not having a leader at all been considered? as you know I am a huge proponent of core leadership. I think that if its imposible to find a leader it might be best to just stick with a strong, cohesive, core for now. once the project picks back up again and/or a suitable person is found he can be promoted to leader.

PS. thanks for having me guys :D

I'd like to thank JKJ for coming in and holding the leader pos, its quite a poisoned chalice with this mod it seems.

Strong, cohesive core sounds good to me - if we dont find a new leader with the dedication we need (LOTS) and JKJ stands down at some point I think resting 'leadership' upon a strong core might end up being the best option.

Thanks for accepting me too! =)

Quite an interesting place...

After what lady N said I agree we should at least see how ofte he contibutes etc before making any desisions at all. Although I posted a showcase for T rebuilt and after VERY slow responces gave up and joined skyrim which ledme to here Wink . Maybe like Durdain said we should end up as strong core?

Well welcome aboard guys. Durdain you have very good interior skills and general ideas (if you have a working pc). Lady N I've seen and heard about your skills etc and i'm very happy to be working with you Yes

Shame my laptop wont handle the CS i'm sure there must be a way though with a dual core 1.8 and a 1gb of Ram. Othersie this would be working much faster as I could add my coral etc to the mod. Like I said Interiors, NPC, Pathgrids and Quests are all that remain for ther islands then I can move on to other areas.

Well we could all work together as co-leaders like we do over in the litter box. It seems to work fairly well over there, and I'd much rather remain in Valenwood as a Co-leader than Sole Leader. What do you guys think? Could we make co-leadership work for Valenwood. We have three active co-leaders for Elsweyr (DarkAs, raggidman and I), we would certainly have a good number here.

In light of Chris07 background I'm reluctant to let him anywhere near the core until he has proven himself a capable modder.

at times, the showcases process really is a pain in the butt for both parties involved. sometimes we manage to make good speed, sometimes we dont... I really dont hold you (or anyone else) giving up on it as a huge red flag to commitment or anything. however, Chris didn't simply drop the thing (like most people do, sadly) but he openly rejected it even after receiving lots of critisism. I suppose its not really much different, but it stuck out in my mind. I dunno

I'm rather surprised I have a reputation Tongue

Hey all,

What words to use, which sentences to write. Hmm, things are complex indeed. One thing I can say though, is that I do not think Chris07 should be made leader, why? You have pointed out all the reasons, but my main is that he has two major mods right now, and Valenwood seems to be a sort of side interest to him, a curiosity even. Think of me what you will, but Valenwood is my home, and I've tried to make it work as best as I could (at times, more recently, not at all Frown ).

I propose that I remain as a figure head, as for now I can't see myself doing massive amounts of work (modding being mainly the thing, modeling however I am keen to try). Think of it as the President of Ireland, or Queen of England, neither have real power, as the prime ministers of those countries do. But both are important parts of the government that help to make it run well.

From my point of view I can see no one that has more passion for the mod than I do, but those are meaningless words if there is no action to back that up. And I am sorry to say I don't know how much action I can provide. I can say that I am ready to provide steady support for the mod once again. At times getting really involved, at times not as much. But I will try as in the best of my power not to 'leave' like I did before. The reason for my absence was that I wasn't ready, one morning I woke up and thought "Wow, how in the name of god am I going to manage all that work" and I saw myself taking it in all at once.

I realise I can't take it in all at once, and I never should have thought I would need to (the reason for me going away). But I CAN do it one step at a time. We must keep the most important thing in our heads, we are doing this for fun. For me it had turned into work, real work, and I shouldn't have let that happen, a lot of this could have been avoided were it not for that. I can safely say though that I have returned a different person, not in my ideas, or passions, but in the way I look at things. I have learned to pace myself, and am eager to get things moving once again, in any way I can.

Metaphors, and sentimental speeches aside. I would like to extend my welcome to Durdain, Lady Nerevar ( yes, I know you Wink ) and Ja-Kha'jay. Congrats all of you, and I look forward to seeing the new Valenwood in action.

Don't panic too much FLESH, I managed to keep chris07 on as a casual modder for Valenwood. He is not having anything to do with the core, he'll just mod if anything tickles his fancy, as most of us do. Anyway welcome back
