Is this for a general Roleplay, or an Epic Roleplay? General Roleplays have the Out-of-Character Discussion sub-forum that could be reasonably used for this purpose, while Epic Roleplays have their own OOC sub-forums for lore dumps.
I suppose it's a general roleplay. I'm not sure what the difference is between the two. xD

General Roleplays are standalone designs that tend to have a more narrow scope of setting presented for the players involved, with a more focused plot. The other name by which they are know on this site is Play-By-Post roleplays.
Epic Roleplays, on the other hand, tend to have much larger, open worlds, with a multitude of plots happening simultaneously, across the various points within the setting of the roleplay.
To use something of an analogy, General Roleplays tend to cover as scope such as the goings on of a student body at a supernatural high school. While, by contrast, in an Epic Roleplay, that high school would be but one of many more locations, and things happening outside the high school could have a direct impact on what happens at the high school. This isn't a hard rule, but more of a guideline.
Additionally, Epic Roleplays require a vetting process that involves gathering a number of roleplayers to spearhead, and usually involve multiple GMs to oversee the various plots going on.
Does that answer your question?
