I want a webcomic too! Except for the including users into the comic I wanted everything else. That being said the negativity may be a reaction to reality. The story will have to be well written before it's ever given to a paid artist to draw. The writing part will need to involve the staff but "owned" by a set number of staff to make it their primary project. Which leaves the decision of a writer. Will it be someone already a Trisphite or will someone outside be hired. There's always a risk of too many people and too many good ideas making a bad story.
Which makes paying for an artist the second step because drawing a whole strip or page takes quite a bit of time. No one is going to do it for free. Even someone who loves what they're doing can only do so for a short time before they
need
compensation for their work.
Yeah I sound negative, and I could say that it's just realistic. This thread exists however to see if the people want a webcomic as a future project. I personally think we should cross that hurdle first jumping into the mire of "it should be complementary not a focus".
But that's a personal thought. If we vote a webcomic it may be a couple more years before it's financially supportable. I'm okay with that. I am on Trisphee because of community and avatars. But honestly I'm afraid one day we'll be too grown up and what of the community or staff that currently support this "dying fad" as it's been put? It's not possible to everything at once. Maybe a redesign and events being tied with adverts is exactly what we need. A revival of a dying fad if at all possible will be a dream come true and I can keep hanging out here =)
EDIT: It should go without saying but perhaps Taletha you should mention that no one votes with their mules. We can stop them if they do but I almost double voted in this fashion without thinking. u_u"
