Moderate the channel so people have to watch in agony as they are ignored if they aren't allowed to have voice. It's not elitist - it's ensuring that Paddedbrats doesn't die like last time. It's why Erehwon is picky with who it chooses to let roleplay with them.
What Paddedbrats needs is structure. A clear list of rules of what can and cannot be done. Where does it take place? What's all in this alternate universe? How alternate is it? Define the alternate. Try to define as much as you can. Failure to work together comes simple misunderstandings that stem from the main problem of lack of structure and definition. Paddedbrats, quite frankly, was not very structured when it first came out and it didn't seem to make much progress.
I know that it's sad to mention, but I was there when the AnimeOTK roleplay known as "The House" fell into shambles. Do you know why it fell into shambles? Lack of structure and definition. That made the players argue time and time again. Erehwon - The Forest House - took it's place and in it's place, it brought structure and definition. It's partly why there are a minimal OOC fights (The last one happened quite a long time ago). It's been up for a year and a half almost and to this date remains the only living AOTK on-going RP.
