• Personal housing for characters. Done.
  
  
• A new RP board of a public swimming area with a sauna and hot tub included. Done.
  
  
• It would be neat if characters could have pets, and allowing a pet store board to RP in, would be a great addition. Done.
  
  
• Seasons, random weather systems. Motivating because it allows users to have a better picture of the RP boards. Done.
  
  
• Hybrid characters and which ones can produce together, which ones have sterile offspring, etc. Some of their abilities, pros and cons of having hybrid genes, as well as the pros and cons of producing together for the parents. If you want to get even more detailed, you could even put the percentages of having certain kinds of powers for the two mixed species, and use a random number generator to calculate the percentage of the offspring's traits using numbers 1-100. (www.mathgoodies.com/calculators/random_no_custom.html) This can be used for other things as well to keep it fair for players.
  
  Note also that adding hybrids, things can get a bit complicated, however.. it allows a MUCH greater array of unique characters, which could attract many new members and keep current ones interested and balanced with their own set of characters.
  
  Also, if there were too many people using hybrids, you could always do the common thing and temporarily ban a certain type of hybrids, or hybrids in general. Another benefit, is that this could be another site plot twist, adding different drama and spice: humans vs "purebloods" vs hybrids, or they could choose if they want to be against each other or not.
  
  
• Allowing characters to own and run their own businesses/shops(within reason), perhaps in their own RP sub-boards of a pre-existing main board to keep them discreet. This would give characters a better chance to fulfill their desires, dreams, and goals and all around make things more interesting and active.
  

I know from personal experience that running a forum can be overwhelming at times, but I think Nightmare is great and that you guys are doing a good job of maintaining it. Keep up the good work.

Hey Snapper!

I am definitely loving all of these ideas, and I have been contemplating the hybrid idea for a while, and I am going to try and do a hybrid chart and stuff, but that will take me some time, cause there's a lot to work out. But that is an amazing idea, and I think that what you said about the plot twist is also really awesome, so I am definitely going to be carrying out these ideas about the hybrids, because they are simply awesome!

Personal housing coming up as well. Of course, everyone needs places to live, so that idea will be carried out as soon as I can make the boards and stuffs.

I think the seasons idea is really good. I shall try and incorporate that on the sidebars, and update it as much as I can. And the swimming board is a good idea, but I don't think that many of the species would waste their time going to a swimming pool? So, I'm not sure about that one, but I can always create a board and see if it goes off well with the members.

Pet's are good, so I will be adding a pet's store and a vet's cause animals are just too cute?

Yep, businesses are fine by me, but I would have to work out a system to make it all realistic and withing reason as you said. Like, not 18 year old human would have a big business because that's not really possible.

I thank you for all of your ideas, I think that they will definitely be great additions to the site and will make it more exciting, and hopefully help keep it active!

Thank you very much, indeed!
