Oh nice, I know I am assistant to the Chief Coder, but I did not know I could proclaim active. What is an OP? Is it some kind of representative?
Wait, oops, I thought you were redglitter somehow. Redglitter, or the acting leader, can only claim the activity. OP is the person who posts the first post of the topic, or “original poster.”
Just saying that I am a representative at GlitterStores, wondering if I could say that we are active?? Just wondering.
I believe you can as long as the rest of the shop agrees. I for one know that it is active. I will have a chat with redglitter

MT
thanks!

Yeah I'd most likely only accept it if the OP tells me, or on a special circumstance I'll accept other forms. Generally, as long as the shop's active, it'll be fine.

Oh, then I am not OP. I am not redglitter.
Yep.

Update:
  1. I have bumped a few shops that have been inactive.
  2. The Inspirational Mall and Perfection Graphics are two shops that passed the inactivity check, but Perfection Graphics lacks the activity of the owner, and the Inspirational Mall has its thread closed. Should they be removed?
  3. Awaiting links to DestroyerXL44's Shop of Stuffs and Marowak's Script/Art Store.
  4. Awaiting banner to Marowak's Script/Art Store.
  5. It is the four month/third-of-a-year anniversary of the United Shops of Scratch! Feel free to celebrate, but let's save it up for November 11, 2017!
  6. Please welcome the Scratch Banner Academy to the United Shops of Scratch, but they are a subsidiary since they are not a shop. This means that this academy is in the same category as the Gobo Awards, but - like the Gobo Awards - lacks representation that all shops have.
  7. I did a sweep around the requests topic yesterday or a few days ago to invite shops (and subsidiaries) here.

EDIT: Added #6-7.

Hi! You contacted Prefection Graphics today about activity. As I said before, the owner of Prefection Graphics, @Bright-Idea, has been very inactive lately. We are not quite sure what to do. Can you please help us?

Thank You!

Oh yes, I think the best is to possibly, if you really think you should, maintain the “Perfection Graphics” name but create a new topic with a more active leader. Yet again, you don't have to do this if you don't think you should, plus you should also make a backup plan in case the new leader becomes inactive as well, so this thing wouldn't happen again to the succeeding leader.

I have an idea ( though not a law). Why don't we set up an aid team so if shops go through crisis or revamp and they need help we could be there for them.

Signatures are a strange one really aren't they?

I kind of like leaving this open to any member of the USS, though.

Sorry i know there is probably a better place to post this, but just wondering, what benefits are there in partnering? Also, how do you do it? I've seen other shops who have partnered up, and all they seem to do is ask to partner up, then add each other to their FP.


GENERATION 361: The first time you see this, copy it into your sig on any forum and add 1 to the generation. Social experiment. I did not start this.
What are signatures for?

Just ask the shop owner to partner up.

Sure, do you need help with beginning them, or parts of them?

Thank you for submitting your link again, sorry for the inconvenience but now your shop should have a link in the members list. Shall you want a banner done for your shop to promote, please contact us/inform us on so.

Could someone assist dt1000's shop in creating a banner for it?

Well I'm not too sure about their terms of partnership, but in the last two partnerships successfully completed by the USS, with the assistance of the Shop & Collaboration Federation and the Small Shops of Scratch, we slightly promote each other by, as you said, naming each other in the FP/OP, and then shall the other federation/group fail, the other one could assist.

I have no official rules yet. I am working on them, but I do not have much. I need tips on what to include.

Well, as the USS has, you should focus on multiple subjects:
  • Membership status and how it is a revokable privilege. (i.e. breaking rules will ban you from the federation.)
  • Shop permissions, things that the shops cannot do within the USS.
  • Head department powers and restrictions, complete with checks and balances similar to the US government and potentially other ones.
  • Contradicting shop restrictions, what they can do.
  • Clear definition of each term you'd like to introduce, such as subsidiaries, members, moderators, etc. and how power could be transferred or how it is.

Let me know if that helps, but with creating positions and setting up the entire federation, that'll be pretty extensive.

EDIT: TacoCatProductions, we still need only one more justice.
