Hannah Here are some great suggestions from Rae *the poet who didn't know it* on good guidlines and ideas for Role-Playing!

-Each post should be in third person. As in, someone should write "She walked away." Instead of "I walked away."

-People get really annoyed by bad grammer, spelling, punctuation, etc....So try to avoid that. If it helps, try writing the post on Microsoft word before putting it into the RP. Firefox Mozilla has spellcheck, I believe

-If you have something to say aside from the RP, put in double parentheses: (()). It keeps things organized. But with that being said, try not to stray away from the RP too much. Post it in the spam or chat topics instead.

-For the love of all things holy, DON'T GOD MODEL! Please, it's boring to have an all-powerful character who's perfect and amazing. Give them faults. Quirks. ANYTHING to make them interesting.

-Try not to make your character the center of attention constantly. Let other people have their moment to make their characters shine. Everyone will get their turn.

-Don't kill, maim, or RP another person's character without their permission. It's very rude and people don't appreciate it.

-Try to avoid one-liners.

- Don't forget to be creative and use your imagination- the best RolePlays come when they're imaginative.

-Just HAVE FUN!

Thanks Rae for Sharing!

Kate*~FlyingOnABroom~* (bookluver2000) | 98 comments If it's ok with the mods, could yo also do "no multiple paragraphs" becaus ethat kind of ruins the fun of RP. RP is supposed to be a continued story and if it's one person doing multiple paragraphs, it kinda ruins the point.

Hannah What do you mean? Or like:

Jane did this........She went to the store and saw a man. She charged the intended bad guy. She took him down. Done. I looked to the others. "SAVED YOU!"

You mean where one person does it all because they did multiple paragraphs and didn't stop?
