I can't make another photobucket account, because it needs an email to create the account. I already have an email address, that I used to make my current photobucket account.

Is it alright if I get back to you in March? I won't be able to do anything till then. Also, I might be able to figure out how much time I have and might be able to let you know exactly what I can do. I'm sorry for the inconvenience.

So we've got people for the adoption thread (Lithoniel and me). Now we need people to open a Photobucket account and draw the tree (Erin, you up for that? And I think Aerliniel Baggins has also expressed some interest?)

And than we'll just have to wait for the claim-your-spouse thread to close and for the confimation from Arweb and Eru, before we get started!

Perhaps the Adoption/sorting-out-family-ties group should start planning how to go on with this.. maybe open a thread.. As with the spouses there might be a few old bonds people want to keep so that needs to get sorted, but other than that new family members will need to be placed into the tree.

Hi. I haven't been on Au in a long time. Just saw this and I understand the claiming spouses thing, but I was wondering if the existing family trees would continue to exist as they are.

Essentially, it depends. A lot of the old members haven't been active for years, so we're trying to give the newbies a chance to be a part of the fun as well, which in some cases means opening up new spouses if their old ones don't claim them by a certain time. Really, we're starting anew, I think.

For the photobucket account idea, yahoo still offers a free email account option. Someone could make an account simply to have a free address for photobucket. You just have to log into your email every now and then to make sure your account aint closed.

I'm pretty sure someone set up an AU email account for the revival, maybe that could be used?

I know I'm new, but I really love the idea of a family and I'd love to be a part of it. I also have plenty of email accounts which I would I could 'donate' to the cause of creating a photobucket account, so long as I don't have any obligations beyond maintaining the email account. My registered email for the forum is actually in the clear for photobucket and I use it regularly.

Welcome to the forum, first off, and welcome to the family! You're help is appreciated! I'll let those wiser than me sort out the photobucket account, but your offer is noted! :)

Spouses: Lithoniel wrote she wants to let the thread to claim your spouse go on for a week or so, and than start to make the official pairings.

Lines: Arweb will still the the starter of the line, maybe Erulisse will still want to be her sister/daughter. Since it's not clear how many people want to be involved, it will be just one line for now, more can be added if necessary.

Once we got confirmation from Erulisse, and when the spouses are sorted out, I think we can start threads for adoption and RP. That leads to another point of interest:

Organization:
- There is someone needed to open AND update the adoption thread, so everyone can keep track of who's related to who. I think that same person can open and update the RP thread, might be useful if the lines are also shown on the RP thread.
- Some people have also volunteered to draw the trees, either by hand or on the computer. Erin suggested to open a joint photobucket account, so several people could contribute to keeping those drawings updated.

As I recall, in the old Trees we had both a drawn version and a list-version. The list-version can be posted in the adoption and RP threads, with a link to the drawn version on photobucket.
So, I guess, and please correct me when I'm wrong, we need one person to open the threads and keep track of the adoptions and changes and several people who want to help with drawing the family trees, according to the updated lists in the threads.

Does anyone know how much longer the claim your spouse thread will go on for?

Update: Alright, Lhun and I are planning the Adoption and RP threads and will be posting them up soon, and will be in charge of keepin them updated. Arweb and Eru have been PMed about the Trees and the lines, and Ennostiel has been PMed about official spouse claimings, so we are waitin to hear back from her so we can set the official date for adoptions to begin.

Now I think we still need a photobucket account set up, along with confirmation from people who would like to draw the Tree, and people who would like to help keep it organized.

We dont know when we are goin to get the threads up, we still havent heard from Eru about being head of the family, and Enno hasn't been on or PMed us back about when spouses will be sorted out, so until all that gets fixed we cant post a start date. We PMed them about two weeks or so ago, but aint heard back, and we dont know another way of gettin ahold of them. :(

Alright, but the tree is supposed to function whether or not everyone is still around. I mean my uncle is still my uncle whether I see him or not. ;) If you guys want to I'd say go ahead and post the thread. The way I understood it nothing is going to be final yet as we still need to sort every one more or less based on who posts and how they wish to be related. Like Arweb is the mother of us all and then go from there. :)

That's true, but to start a Family Tree we do need someone who can start the adoptions, like a head of the family. At least that's what I think :)
As I remember, with the Old Trees, the heads of the lines were the ones who started adopting in the first place. And once you got adopted, you could go on and adopt people yourself. But without a head to adopt you, how can you become a part of the Tree? :blink:
Maybe I'm seeing a non-existing problem, but this is the main reason why we haven't posted the threads yet, although we're really excited to get started!
