I really like how vast and all encompassing the Omniverse is, however I've noticed that the main way to get the information you need is by reading an other's forum or digging though 40-60 pages of quick questions. Because of how verbose most of us are this makes for a lot of time spent reading. If your looking for something specific about the world you can spend hours reading page after page and still not find what your looking for. It's for these reasons that I want to ask if you'll allow me to write information for the verses. If you do I will post them in their own forum with clear titles and y'all can use whatever chunks of it you think are worth posting in the information topics of those verses. If this kind of thing is not possible I understand, but I really love what y'all have created and I would love to expand on it and make it more accessible as a setting for us newer members.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention. I would like to ask the question, what would make it easier for you as a new member to find your way ? Would an FAQ help? Or would a more personal touch like a personal guide be more helpful?

A personal guide might help, but just a generally increase in the amount of information in the information topics would be most helpful from my point of view. It would help create a more consistent understanding of the verses and would allow knew players to jump into an unfamiliar verse without having to do as much research. It's mostly simple stuff that would be nice to know up front instead of having to glean it from reading 2-3 other forums. Like knowing that in this world stormtroopers actually are semi-good at their jobs. Or roughly what the security is like on either side of the Coruscant-Nexus gate. There are things like that in all the verses info that would be expanded on. In the vasty deep it mentions Vi but doesn't say how she feels about the Empire occupying what is obviously her territory? In Camelot it mentions that the government is trying to make peace between the non-human and human secondaries, but it doesn't really mention what the governments forces might look like (is it elves and wizards and mutants oh my or just a bunch of human knights from Minas Tirith) As I said its mostly just small details that become post blockers because you have to spend the next three hours looking through 100+ pages of quick questions or reading several full length topics to see what senior members have done before you can actually make the post with the right info. I'm more than willing to read all this stuff and write it all down. I would just like it to go somewhere where others can use it to avoid the situations I've found myself in. I'm sorry that I went on an on with this post. I just want to make sure I'm being clear about what I'm asking.

I'm more than happy for members to contribute this type of information and for it to be added to the official topics, as long as it's well-written, perfunct (not unnecessarily sprawling) and well-formatted. Just like wiki pages. I'd recommend starting an Omniverse Discussion topic for it.
Curious about me and the characters I play? See the
'Staff' page! See also the rosters for my characters
Samus Aran or
Enel if you'd like to see examples of well-formatted rosters. Hope you enjoy the Omniverse!
