Are there any webstories going on right now? If not, can we start one? It has been awhile since I've come here last.

Whoa, whoops. I'd forgotten about that.
Alrighty, position reversed: no more additional webstories until Killanta has run its course (or eventually dies).

Yes, but that is beside the point; until it is completely dead, it is the only webstory on the board. If you don't like that it is dead, I suggest you post in it.

I don't mean to insult you or anything EVula, but it's not the same thing.
Kilanta is not a webstory, it is an RP, a RolePlay. It would be cool if we always had one RP going, and one Webstory, because not everyone likes RPs, and not everyone likes Webstories.
But in the end, it's up to you, oh great and velnerable (while still young and goodlooking) leaderish person in charge of this.

What exactly is the difference? I pretty much ignore the webstories (I just don't have the time for them), so I don't know why it isn't a "real" webstory.
As it is, I just noticed the date of the last "real" post in that topic, which is 11-14, over a month ago. If it still doesn't have real activity soon, I'm going to lock it; from what I can tell, it is a bit of a deviation from a normal webstory setup, and the experiement seems to be a bit of a failure.

sorry for not explaining fully. Basically, a webstory means you control a goverment and also have to control things like recruiting, supplies, weapons and ship manufacture and research. All in all it's alot mor serious and realistic, but not so personal.
An RP, on the other hand, is based with you controlling just one person, their personality and fully describing their movements and interactions with the RP, alot more description, talking, etc. Also alot more personal.

Ah, I see the difference now. However, I still don't think that another story should be started until the current one dies. Given its near death, I don't think that'll be too long.

FluffyWithTeeth, you seem to have a rather arbitrary definition of "webstory". From the name, I'd take it to mean that it's a story on a webboard. It could be a one-character story such as Killanta, or one of those multi-government text wars you describe. Regardless, it's generally the case that we allow one webstory and one bar on each board at a time - the difference can be unclear (for instance, the difference between a mayhem bar like Boozerama and one of the (to me inexplicable) regimented bars like The Albatross on the EVO board is marked) but however you slice it until Killanta is declared dead there is one of each.
I'd personally say Killanta was dead already, let someone start a new one if they so wish.

look through a faithless eye - are you afraid to die?
I admit defeat. I shall lay down my sword and admit that the Killanta story is dead. Though i must admit that it was pretty good for my 1st try. Though I would like to join this one...

Yeah, Killanta wasn't a bad attempt at all, but I think we can learn from it that people are less likely to spend time furthering a character created by someone else.
