    140 character limit sounds aggravating.
    Why any limit?

    Here's my two cents: How about having one core website, but different 'subdomains' for each race?

    Imagine the problems if they would add sections for black people and white people on facebook

    Forces you to choose your words carefully and reduce superfluousness.

    Donation thingy is up:
    http://community.playstarboundrp.com/goals/social-media-project.2/

    Note: Donations towards the project WILL count in regards to the various donation tier banners.
    Donors will also receive special stuff for their character's profiles when the application is finished.
    (Though I haven't determined or decided what yet. Nothing too unfair or flashy. Maybe even tiered rewards, like Kickstarter.)

    I changed it to $1, because the donation manager forces you to set a value. I wanted to not set a goal at all.
    Even then, $320 would be the cheapest social media platform ever developed.
    I'm still developing it for free, but any donations at all will speed up development.

    Do you accept vinyl records as donations? You can sell them for money. I could also pay you in pages from Atlas shrugged or leaves, but those aren't worth much.

    I meant in-game races ya know -_-
    I was in a rush posting that. What I was going to say was for there to be themes or whatever for the different races (in-game -_-). I'm now looking back on it and thinking that it would be better to allow the creation of themes, in accordance with the forum rules obviously.

    Yes, me too. And I was refering to real world races as a respond to your smart idea that wouldn't end well ICly.
    Diffrent themes for each races is also good like black theme for black people, and white theme for white people. Also the yellow for asians.

    Which is why I corrected myself. I was basing it off of social networking sites that cater to a specific race, like asianavenue, which doesn't exist anymore.
