I think the option of writing should still be there, but we should also keep this OOC community. To some of us, we're the only real friends we have, so keeping it around gives us a sort of common ground to come and leave messages and keep up.
As far as the roleplaying, I think we all understand what our limits should be, no god mode, etc. But I think we can all benefit from having more creative freedom by relaxing some of the rules as far as what abilities/etc we are limited to. It was nice to have as a checks and balances sort of thing when we were bigger, but I really feel it is stifling sometimes. I think that if bob wants to shoot beams of fire out of his fists but cannot because of this two abilities limit thing, then why the hell not if he isn't going to go apeshit with it, as long as a) he knows he can't just catch everyone on fire and declare himself the winner of the game (and I think we're all mature enough not to do that), and b) if it will enhance his desire to write what he wishes without those restrictions.

Man alone measures time.
Man alone chimes the hour.
And, because of this, man alone suffers a paralyzing fear no other creature endures.
A fear of time running out.
― Mitch Albom, The Time Keeper
