Review: Divided We Stand

Forum; Invisionfree

Mythology (all)

Personally I have seen many sites based on this idea Divided We Stand uses; 'the old gods walking amongst mankind in current time', as well as some books, Percy Jackson for example. However, Divided We Stand has added one idea that is original to this fairly unoriginal background; the use of an agency called the 'Bureau of Mythological Registration and Regulation' has created rules for those gods to follow and forces them to register themselves at their offices.

There is no official age rating established for this forum. However, based on the posts I've read, I'd say PG-13.

About three paragraphs of 100 words.

There are new posts every 3 days.

Both canon and original characters are accepted.

The site has a, in my opinion, good-looking theme that is unrelated to the plot. It is clear where to go and what to read as a starter, however I suggest that the thread currently called Guidelines is pinned, because now it was a little out of place, below several announcements etcetera. The plot is described next to the main site banner, which helped with finding out what the site's about, especially since, as said before, the theme does not point in a specific direction.

Very easy. It is clear where to RP, where to apply with your character profile and where to go with all your OOC needs.

Basic plot information is relatively easy to find. Advanced information on the Bureau, gods and mortals can also be found easily. Current plot information is however not there, and thus it would be nice to see some sort of summary of what has happened on the site so far, especially since there's been RP'd for over 6 months already.

It is clear how the RPG works, yet the combat system on this site has not been described.

There's a guest-friendly forum in which the admins reply to questions. As far as I can judge by the topics in there, the admins are professional and quick with their replies.

Your standard neighbourhood application process, in which the member writes a profile which is then judged by the staff. However, there is an alternative profile in which the character described answers questions; interview-style.

Nothing in particular.
