Nothing else has managed to spark that interest in recent years. I miss that regular collaborative writing.
But this is mostly about LORE STUFFF cause I wanna know. Don't plan on starting anything until there's more info.
I read the descriptions on the site, and I'm really loving the spiritual focus with each species. It provides a solid base for roleplayers to build upon--gives an idea of how each species would act, what they believe, what they dislike, etc..
Is that going to be more in-depth in the future? For instance the existence of structures is a bit of a mystery; what would've built those things? It'd be fun to know but also to make characters get all confused and find weird meanings behind each one. The social structure of each one would also be fantastic to learn more about. I'm a sucker for games with more complex lore; they feel immersive, and it's easier to create characters based upon it.

Oh WOW SIF I'M HONORED AND JUST GENERALLY SMILING SUPER HARD RIGHT NOW IM SO GRATEFUL?? FSGSD
I didn't think there was much interest in lore, but I would totally be down for getting into the nitty gritty of social structures among each species. The lore for some of the other animals is written but I didn't care too much for their story, so it's still changing and being woven together with the other lores.
BUT WOW IM SO HAPPY YOU FEEL THIS WAY THAT IS SO AWESOME!!!!
You'd be surprised at the number of people who take an interest in it! I know that all of my internet friends who roleplay love to do research on the lore of the games they play before constructing a character's background and organizing groups. Most of them loooove Guild Wars 2 because it has all of the history of the world explained in depth along with the demeanor of each race, their spiritual beliefs, and their social structure. I always found the sylvari stuff fascinating, but the game's primary focus on combat got a little off-putting to me. The roleplay community there is generally very open and friendly, and they're great at staying true to the game.
It may attract a broader audience too. The ones from some of the animal mmos show a little more apathy towards lore since they aren't exposed to it in these games. Every other game is kinda like, "LOOK ANIMALS! MARKINGS! MAPS! ANIMALSSSS!" Making it a complex thing could help to get people more active in it, and it would unite groups since there's some common base for everyone to build upon.
I'm so glad this made you happy. I figured showing some appreciation would help!
