Here at City Of Souls, we strive to make sure that the dream is running perfectly and up to our visitor's standards. If you have something you would like to suggest to the Rahs, you may e-mail us at CityOfSouls@outlook.com and a member will respond to you as soon as they can! If you do not feel comfortable with e-mail us, you may respond to this thread.
After a suggestion is made, please be patient with us! All suggestions are spoken over with the rest of the staff team and if it's found as something doable or helpful, we may implement it or present it to the rest of the dream to see what other people may think! Please see the list below to see what we look for in terms of suggestions!
Types of things you can suggest;
**Adding certain plots to the dream**
- We're always looking for our members to suggest possible dream-wide plots for people to participate in! However, please know that dream wide plots are not forced on all of our players. It's up to the players in the dream as to whether or not they want to acknowledge a player-suggested plot if it was not part of the dream lore to begin with.
**Additions to Forums/Dream Commands**
- If you see something on the forums or commands in the dream that might be done in a difficult way and have an idea to make navigation or something of the like easier, let us know! We're always trying to make things easy for you and the rest of the players of the dream! Just let us know and as all other suggestions, it will be reviewed and either implemented, or placed away for possible ideas in the future!
**Expansion**
- If there's an area in the dream you would like to see more additions to, let us know! We do plan to do more expanding in the dream so players have more exploration. But these additions will also cost money. The developer of the dream has worked hard on what we already have, but there's nothing opposed to paying to add something more to the dream based on popular demand!
What NOT to suggest;
**Personal use buildings**
- As stated in the 'Expansion' section of the 'what to suggest' section, it costs money for us to expand the dream more. We pay a developer, who's skilled in dream weaving and coding, so any additions to the dream will be done through our developer of the dream. Personal buildings may be *REQUESTED* for a fee from the player who requested it. We do have 'apartments' and 'homes' that can be rented a monthly amount. The profit from the homes will go straight towards supporting the dream for any past or future costs that might have and/or will occur. For more information on renting a home or apartment, please message myself or the other staff members.
**Avatars**
- At this time, we will not be accepting suggestions for avatars to be put in the dream. We have free locals that can be used in the dream and in the near future, we may offer up a custom avatar slot (with the avatar patch provided by you) for you to buy at an annual cost, but as of right now, we are not accepting any applications for those.
**Staff**
- We do not take suggestions on who you "think" should or should not be staff in the dream. When applications for staff opens up, we don't allow people to 'vote' on who they want to be staff. This is a decision made among the Rahs and Senior staff members. If you have a problem with a staff member, you may privately message either myself, Maddi or another member you feel comfortable with going to rather than sending an e-mail and any issues you have will be addressed & handled appropriately.
**Change of Lore and/or Rules**
- The lore is set in stone. Unless there's enough demand for a change, the lore will not change to 'fit your character.' That's just not going to happen. The same goes for the rules. However, just like the lore, if there's enough fuss over a certain rule, it will be discussed and either overturned or revised to keep majority population happy.

I'd just like to make a bit of a suggestion where everyone can see it, for simplicity sake...
When creating events for CoS I think it would be very helpful to post the "when" in FST (Furcadia Standard Time).
Because a lot of us live in different time zones and I know that I personally have to look up the time difference from my zone in comparison to others, because I don't know them off the top of my head (there are SO many). Whereas I know off hand that FST has always been 2 hours ahead of my time (Pacific Standard Time). FST is super easy to look up: you literally just post "time" in the main Furcadia window.
So yeah... could we please post event times in FST just to standardize everything? I think it would be very helpful to those of us outside of America (I know that staff of the dream all live relatively close together).

Not all, as I'm in Europe. This would help me as well as I've mistaken the time with a past few events so far.
I second this suggestion.
