Marin's general help thread

[ChaoticMarin]

Alright. Here's the deal. This isn't a guide so I'm not going to presume to know what you want help with and start explaining random stuff. I will however tell you a bit about what I can help you with and what you might get better help with by going to someone else. In short, after taking a brief peek through this intro post, feel free to ask any questions you please and I will then answer them to the best of my ability. If something isn't on the list, it's because I haven't thought of it and you should feel free to ask me about it anyway, after which I will probably add it to the list.

Things you should definitely consider asking me about

• Post Length
• Romance as a side focus
• Canonities/Continuities
• Advanced Gender Dynamics
• Playing characters with mental or physical handicaps
• Avoiding powerplaying/godmod
• Avoiding having your character come off as a Mary Sue
• Concept based character design

Things you may consider asking me about

• Game Mastering a roleplay
• How to behave in a roleplay you don't Game Master
• How to behave in a roleplay where there "is no GM" or the GM is not actually involved in any way
• Non-competitive text fighting
• Spelling & Grammar
• Character Profile Design

Things you should consider asking someone more specialized in the area about

• Competitive Text Fighting
• Romance as a primary focus
• Extremely long or extremely short posts
• Nation Role Play
• Game mechanics in roleplay
• Creating worlds

In addition, here is a second list revolving around which roleplay settings I have the most experience in. Because of the nature of the list, the "no/low experience" section will not be listed.

Settings in which I have a lot of experience

• Chat-based roleplay
• Fantasy Roleplay
• Pokemon Roleplay
• Mega Man Roleplay

Settings in which I have significant experience
