    Advice/Help Roleplay Tips

    When I reply, I tend to focus a lot on what my character is doing/thinking, which sounds fairly vague at first but it's easily the best way to really fill out a scene. A character can simply say "Got it, thanks," but the real meat and potatoes comes from explaining their facial expressions, how...

    Advice/Help How to write action scenes?

    Lord, I don't know if I can add anything to really spice up this, beyond "get into a fight" and that isn't exactly the most helpful thing. Even a very basic introduction to grappling and hand-to-hand combat can make all the difference in the world, whether it be by watching MMA fights or...

Or, if you do employ it, you need to spell it out in the OOC posts to avoid the fairly decent chance it is simply glossed over. Not for any fault of the players necessarily, just due to how many voices are...

    I have no clue how to have a ton of people RPing on a Nation building RP

    I know what I did, waaaay back in the old-school days of this site (before my hiatus from virtually all internet), was have two "levels" of play. The NB end, and the Character end. Basically, an NBRPer was working on the high concepts. Setting up building projects, making the societal framework...
