Karakura districting

[jokerman369]

I believe it would be a good idea to district out Karakura town into 4 distinct districts. They would be ordered in North, South, East, and West. North and East would be mostly composed of residential housing such as Ichigo's house, Orihime's house, and everyone else. In this district would not only be residential housing but also a few convienence stores and playgrounds. In the West would be industrial factories and mills. Maybe some metal manufacturing yards, lumber yards, and other types of factories. In the South would be Downtown where your shops, restraunt's, and higher class housing such as townhouses and what not would be located. Please give me your idea's and criticism as to my idea.

Just to throw in my own two cents about the subject, I believe that works quite well. It keeps up organization so that we can find topics more easily, and with organization the website looks neater too. Personally, I'd love to hear what kinds of advantages you yourself believe this has in store for us.

First off, this is a pretty good idea, and something I've been wanting to do with the other areas. (especially Soul Society) The thing with Karakura Town though, is that it's "districts" have already been set. Ichigo & Co.s houses are mostly located in the South Western portion of the Town, aside from Uryuu's and a couple others who live outside of Karakura Town.

So, the splitting between North, East, South, and West could do well so long as it keeps logically with the original. There's also the part of the Roleplay taking place ~1000 years after the manga, so things could change, but what was previously a residential area isn't likely to be taken over by mills and whatnot. There are also multiple other ways to divide up Karakura Town.

One, would be to divide it into the 12 original districts, which I probably wouldn't do just because it's time consuming. XP 12 sub-boards isn't hard to do, just takes a ton of time.

Another would be to not divide it at all, but add sub-boards of notable places inside Karakura. Here we could put things such as certain stores, an Urahara's Shop-esque place, a hospital, forest, graveyard, mills and/or plants, etc. This is how it's usually done, and would probably be the easiest to do.

There's also the fact of "Karakura Town" is already on the site, it just doesn't have anyting in it. It would be easier to just add in notable areas rather than add "districts", since we'd have to delete Karakura Town first for it to work it's best. Also, if that were to happen, we'd likely have to change "Living World" to "Karakura Town" and delete Kagamino City. That way, we could have "North Karakura", "East Karakura", etc. or "Yumisawa District", etc. as boards, and notable areas as sub-boards. It's not a bad idea to do this, but what about Kagamino City? There's also Naruki City where Mizuiro and Asano live. If you guys are okay with only having Karakura Town (meaning, less places to RP and have specific plots towards) then I don't mind doing the work to change everything around. (Given Stele's permission, of course. XP)

Personally, I think we should move Karakura High into a sub-board under Karakura Town, and add more sub-boards. Afterwards, we can also add more high-end shops, houses, etc. in Kagamino or Naruki City, since high-end places probably wouldn't be found in Karakura Town.

There's also the option of adding in the sub-sub-boards code, which would allow us to add even more specified areas and even individual houses for each RPer. However, I don't know if that code is compatible with our category tabulation code, but I think that would be a better option should it work. XP

Personally I was actually planning on bringing this to everyones attention, however I didn't know how I would go about this. So I rather like the idea's, so I leave this to Jachimaru and th members.
