As many of you are aware, the IC Chat (Icy Taco) is the current board where alter-egos can be used in a similar way that the 'Bloids are used without them. This board is mostly directed at Icy Tacoers, but if anyone else is curious about showing up to the Taco for this event, you can read on as well.
Lately on the Icy Taco, there has been an increase in battles, in both amount and intensity. While this is all well and good once in a while, constant battles make it impossible for any calm conversation, and keep would-be active Tacoers and characters at bay. There has also been an increase in drama, both fictional and, sadly, real. This has taken the Taco from amusing to depressing.
I'd also like to state this is not the fault of any one person. I even started two of the big battles recently. And if you're thinking, "oh, they're just saying that, it's my fault", no, it's really not. It is nobody's fault. Full stop.
In moderation, battles and even a little fictional drama would be fine. However, lately, things have not been in moderation, as Icy Taco drama compounds upon itself. It's hard to tell everyone to just cut back, but what if, for a day, we all stopped it completely? This is where my proposition lies: a Peaceful Day.
On Peaceful Day, only characters that can't or won't fight or cause drama will be allowed. Even some heroes would be ruled out with this. If this were to happen, I would choose characters that not only would not fight, but actively avoid fighting in general. If you do not have such a character, a character that would generally avoid fighting is fine as well. It is up to you, but you must keep the peace.
On this topic, you may state your opinions, along with giving a list of the characters that you could or would use then, in case specific clashes between characters might arise that you did not consider. If a large amount of the active Tacoers agree to this, then we will set the date when this will occur. If a large amount of active Tacoers disagree, and the battles and drama do not lessen... I for one will not be returning to the Taco. Thank you for reading, ~Hunter, Torkie, Azzie, Drew

These are the characters of mine that I /know/ will be coming:
Torkie the Blaziken Jason the Pirate Eyrie persona!Ambassador Ky Godot Lee OR his father (but not both, UNLESS Vex is rescued first)
Daniel and Tyler may also be coming.
If Vex is rescued by then, he and his father will also come.

I know I already have my name on there, but I agree. We just need a day of peace. ^_^ To make sure there are no problems between the characters I'll bring and the characters someone else will bring, I'll bring along AJ!Phoenix, Chicken, and maybe Portsman.

I'll be bringing Sir Hunter, Hola, Viris, Xorrand, Koffing, the weewoos, Dia Tree, and Nymph. I might be bringing in my Marill and Fyora as well, the former much more likely than the latter. Also, the original poster is a smart guy, you should all listen to him. *sage nod* I'm just a silly hobo, so... *brick'd*

I agree with this.
Only Mouppy will be able to come, though

I agree with this. Only Mouppy will be able to come, though Actually, Candy, Mouppy has caused a little bit of the drama on the Icy Taco, so... I don't know why you say "only Mouppy", because Twizzlers, Junior Mint, Sang, and possibly Jindla and Kernathe would work perfectly well.

Sang, then. ^_^

Well, when the Icy Taco was originally conceived, it was supposed to be a place for silly role-playing with characters. This sort of thing would indeed include some battles. There is such a thing as a light-hearted battle, and some of them have been fun. Battles are to be expected, so I do not expect them to go away.
It is true that there has been a compounding of unnecessary drama, though. Whether it's just things going to the point of being taken too seriously, or just a scary character in general, I agree that some things have gone too far. The drama is my only concern with the way things are at the moment. Honestly, I'm not sure how the battles are a direct result of the unnecessary drama; the only connection I see is how things are handled in them.
In any case, I won't object to the idea. It can't hurt, after all.
As for my characters themselves, it depends on whether the event I'm staging is done by that time or not. If so, I can bring Hugo along, but I won't bring the others. If not, then it'll probably be just me.

My characters wouldn't mind it, since they're there to chat and remind me that they exist. So both Leste and The Author will be coming along and none of us object to the idea. ^^

I can agree with this. I admit that I haven't really noticed much, but that might be because I've been busy. XD; Or possibly because I've been going to the 'bloids more lately... which, come to think of it, is related to the fact that I've been sort of put out of a heavy RP mood lately and thus not wanting to dive into whatever is happening on the Taco. >_> ...Maybe I have noticed, then.
At any rate, the vast majority of my characters are nonviolent and won't fight unless provoked. So it would actually be easier for me to list off characters who wouldn't come instead of ones that would. :B *tilts head in thought* ...Which would basically just be von Karma and a few of the AmysGames villains. Not that I bring them here much anyway because I don't like causing drama.
...Soyeah. PFA's list of characters would be the same as it always is. XD Unless anyone can think of any characters that would cause conflicts for some reason I'm overlooking... that's pretty unlikely, though.

XD Yeah, I was just gonna say that the only conflicts I can think of would be with my own characters. XD Even a lot of my villains are surprisingly nonviolent, but they would cause conflict if I brought their protagonist counterparts, so... It shouldn't be any real problem, though. I know which of my characters cause conflict with each other so I'll just know which characters not to bring out at once.
