Subject: Tangential comment on Rudi's (and a bunch of proposals)

(This is a post that started from me misreading your complaint, Nova, so it's not quite a response to you, but I still figure it needs to be made)

I went through and counted how many folks have been involved an RP in #rudis in the past week, and, though there's definitely something of a core group, I counted 16 folks (I can post the list if it's wanted).

Now, a statistic worth noting is that a bit under half the folks on that list have posts on the front page, and of the folks who have posted on the Board, not all of them have been really participating.

And, now that I've been thinking about the situations I have a few unconnected proposals:
- I'm willing to (and probably will, since I just volunteered for it) throw together a survey thing to gather folks' thoughts on why they're not also here as well as the chat.
- We have control over a bot in the Discord and over the new Board. One interesting thing to consider is some form of Board->chat bridge, so the Discord gets poked about new posts. This will also enable catching up on unread posts via the unread indicators in #board (or whatever), which might reduce the friction involved in needing to scroll down and check all the threads.
- Given the core RP group issue, and since I've noticed this myself sometimes, is #rudis getting crowded? I think it sometimes dose reach that point, and since people are rather unwilling to use #other_rp for overflow, we could maybe use a second RP channel for when the first is busy? Thoughts from the chat-folk?
