I did, in fact, enter this thread because when my mouse went over the title up popped a xkcd comic.
Having read it all, however, I'll give you a legit answer:
I've never done a roleplay that wasn't the tabletop kind where we had a GM. No one has ever suggested to me that my writing was 'ooc...
Followed up with all the potentials from this week. Started one roleplay, getting ready to start a second, turned one down, had one lose interest, waiting to hear back from the other three to see if they lead to roleplays.
I can't say I've done many roleplays with dragons but I am a fan of dragons and Dragonriders of Pern was one of the first fantasy series I ever read. So on that note- would you set up a dragon roleplay in that way with each of us playing at least one human/dragon team or would it be more...
Haha. That's funny because yesterday in the advice forum I equated responding to a search thread with writing a cover letter. Very similar in formula. Introduction, Qualifications/Interests, Call to Action
I was excited to see horror and sci-fi on your list. A lot of people find them underrated...
I am a die hard 1x1er (got over group roleplays way back when because the reply lag killed me) and I have had a fair number of search threads in my day.
In my experience I have rarely had people come on too strong. More often I think the opposite might be true where people are indecisive or...
Particularly in reference to niche ideas: Try writing something for it.
Sometimes people can't see where an idea might go or if it's a fandom where you want to focus on a side ship instead of the main pairing people may just have never found a reason to be interested in the side characters...
I let them.
Either I or my partner (pretty much only do 1x1s) was losing interest, posting schedule slowing down because of real life stuff, other roleplays I was more excited to reply to took priority, and a variety of other factors might have been involved but ultimately all it came down to...
Sorry TigerLover but I think you're going to want to create your own thread. It appears our interests are entirely incompatible as I only roleplay male characters and male/male relationships.
Hello, hello. Please call me Jace. Given I’m posting here it goes without saying I am looking for some roleplay partners. All of my main characters are male and if there is romance it will be male/male. I tend to play more dominating characters but not all of them are so if you have a preference...
Character-sheet style introductions in a 1v1.
Character sheets are good for tabletop games or group roleplays and for keeping track of a particular character's attributes either for yourself or a partner but do not a good roleplay introduction make.
A lot of you talked about spending too...
If I'm struggling and realize that I am (particularly if I'm bored of what my character is doing or if this is the third fourth etc post in a scene that I've struggled with) it's time to turn something on its head. Have your character totally misunderstand someone else's dialogue, get your...
Based on your post I'm not really sure what exactly you are struggling with but I tend to agree with Kazami that trawling through others' roleplays is not going to be the most efficient way to learn what you want to know.
Could you post samples of the type of sentence structure you are trying...
I was going to say yes- surely everyone has tried a wonky McDonald's toy at one point or another but reading other people's replies I realized you were asking about food. Haven't eaten McDonald's in over 15 years so I can't recall.
