Re: New and overwhelmed

Hi there! You posted your topic twice, so I just replied to this one. What has changed that you are more overwhelmed than before, the layout? I will be glad to help you with anything you need, from getting acquainted with the layout to brushing up on your roleplaying skills. But I need to know exact...

Re: A question on joining an RP...

I concur with that idea^, however if you find that it isn't accepted still, I can talk to Eric about it directly in the morning and have him fix the problem or look into it if he has the time, so that it gets adjusted ASAP and you don't lose your place in the roleplay. But try Marionette's idea firs...

Re: Play By Post Campaigns

I always found an aversion to message board role play for this reason. I always felt that role plays would not thrive if real time interaction did not exist between the players constructing the plot. In any plot I do, I usually act as a game master in that I set up the goals, obstacles, NPC and non-...

Re: refreshing my skills

My schedule is hectic, having a child, but I am on for quite a few hours a day since I'm a stay at home mother. Sometimes as long as 12 hours, even if I'm temporarily idle. You will probably have to start by adding my YIM name xunderinkx -- other than that, we could probably do a skill-building role...

Re: To all those people that are online!!!

This seems highly presumptuous to me. A lot of people here are online WHILE at school, sometimes during college classes. Or, they're sick from school. Or, they've just finished school. Or. . . . they're laid off, or just got fired, or simply have a break day from work (or got off of work early, or w...

Re: New here. Need some advice.

There is no reason you shouldn't be able to withdraw an un-used or barely used character from a plot. It's your character. You decide what's canon and not to your character's history. If anyone complains, you can treat it like a comic, and say that the abandoned role plays were experiments out of ca...

Re: Starting Out

Some members seem to also have difficulty staying in a roleplay once they find it and are consequentially discouraged from scouting for roleplays because they seem to stop. If this happens to you, or you face any other difficulties, post a thread here requesting help from a mentor, one of us will pr...

Re: New here. Need some advice.

In all of my time of roleplaying, I've noticed that spelling and grammar/spelling aren't always the issues for why people get left behind. Although it most certainly helps to have clear, concise sentences and mix it with interesting detail, the problem really lies with chemistry. Although theoretica...

Re: Just a question to the community about "finer" RPing...

I find that I am equally annoyed by short one-lined posts, and multiple paragraphs of over a thousand characters with excessive (and I do mean excessive, however 'exquisite' it may be described as) detail. My idea of a skilled roleplayer reflects on their ability to match action with dialogue and su...

Re: Does Anyone Else Read Other Roleplays?

I will if I'm assured by somebody, or notice myself, that all participants are skilled roleplayers (my idea of this is sometimes unconventional), and if I'm interested in the plot substance.

Well, that's spectacular. Skallagrim sent Marionette and I messages anyway, so if you find yourself needing additional help, let us know. :)

I'm posting this here so that anyone with questions is aware that I am around frequently, being a stay at home mother. If anyone has any questions or problems, requires advice, suggestions, post-watching, or anything else that relates to having a mentor--- IM me. My personal contact details are as f...

Re: Playing intelligent characters/characters with expertise?

I agree with keeping it basic/simplistic and not using more than you need to get the point across. However, regarding Wikipedia, a common misconception is that it's a poor source. Although it can be edited by anyone, it is frequently checked and flagged for errors, inadequacy, poor citation, et cete...

Re: How'd YOU Start Roleplaying?

I started in 1999 hopping between Eden and old Ayenee, semi-paragraph roleplaying. Other than my custom made characters, in my first year or two playing, I spent a lot of time with some Final Fantasy roleplayers. I stopped playing for a few years but I got engaged to an old friend I've known through...

Re: Do you believe in a "God"?

Demons was a term in the Grecian and contemporary civilizations for a demi-god like figure, a figure that was not quite a god but still meta-human. Zeus, for instance, was not a demon, he was a God. But Eros was considered a demon. Demons also referred to guardians of humans, or the spirits of dead ...

Re: Do you believe in a "God"?

The theory about the plagues and the parting of the sea are pretty much -nearly- proven by the Santorini volcano that erupted simultaneous to all of those happenings. We know because we can date what pharaoh presided over Egypt at the time of Moses' living, and it coincides with the volcano eruption...

Re: Is the United States economically stable? Will it ever be?

The economy is obviously not stable. It will experience periods of stability from time to time, as all economies will, and periods of tempestuousness. The administration is handling the problem as best they can with what they were left by an utter retard. He has to sustain the massive amount of troo...
