    Advice/Help Semi-Cinematic Horror Game-Inspired RP

    Having run a Silent Hill RP in the past, I can tell you that you won't always find people who are familiar with the games you want to base the roleplay off of. However, there are lots of people on this website who like to roleplay horror as it's not too common of a genre. Try to detail your...

    Idea How to make a multifandom idea stand out?

    I don't dabble too much into Multifandom, but I'd assume a lot of the same ideas that make other roleplay genres - specifically fandom would work out. The main thing to focus on making an rp standout is premise. What is the roleplay going to be about? The concept/story that the roleplay will be...

    Viewpoint Unpopular roleplay opinions?

    This I agree with so much. As someone who roleplays more for the characters than just the story alone, I really enjoy taking in the small things such as long scenes of dialogues rather than constant action scenarios.

    Experiences How old were you when you first started roleplaying?

    I was 14 when I actually began officially roleplaying on forums. That was back when I was on ROBLOX. The entire reason I started doing it was because I wanted to create my own Naruto story with others.

    Advice/Help How do I have more confidence in my writing?

    Don't see critique as a bad thing, criticism when done right is a good thing! It's a scary thought to post work that you're unsure of, but that's your best way of getting better! I guarantee you that no one was ever good at writing to begin with. Writing at its core is a skill, and like any...

    Experiences How do you deal with mary sue players in your rps?

    Whenever I have to deal with the quintessential perfect character I have a bit of a process. First, I'll give them a warning either by PM or in the OCC (Depending on how the group atmosphere is). In this warning I explain that while I understand they want their character(s) to reach their...

    Why do you like to role-play? What does it do for you?

    For me, I roleplay for the characters. I absolutely LOVE good, well thought out, dynamic characters that grow and actually have depth to them rather than just being flat. In my mind, I could have a roleplay that's just all dialogue and still be satisfied (Which probably explains why so many of...

    Other Just a roleplay rant

    In my mind a lot of the whole length issue comes down to who you roleplay with and what their expectations are. I too used to struggle with post length whenever I first joined roleplays with new people. However, eventually I came up with a system where I just write long posts until I get a feel...

    Other Horror and forum rp. How do we make it work?

    It's hard. But with fresh concepts and some creative, non-cliche themes, it can be done.

    Deal Breakers. What makes you "walk" away?

    Alright guys, let's not get off topic. If you'd like to discuss hypocrisies please take it elsewhere. I'm sure all Bacon was trying to say is that a smaller font is harder to read that's all. I'm also sure that e d e n is just trying to say that she likes smaller font because it makes her...

    Playing Different Personalities

    1. This is a problem that I have a lot as well, and my best advice for you is this: Make a day and night difference between the personalities of your characters. By this, I mean you should be able to describe the key points of your characters personality in just a few words. Now you don't want...

    Rper Stereotypes (and what they do)

    You came from abyss known as ROBLOX too :D? The Climaxer1!!:  (Negative) EVERYTHING has to be a major plot point with this roleplayer. A major villain has to appear, a fight has to break out, a major character event has to happen. Nothing else however, none of the build-up such as normal...

    @Pashpu and thanks, I'll also be sure to go into detail on that ;P

    Children of Aspera

    I kinda have a basic plot down, so hear me out. Not trying to give too much away because when I make this an rp (When my schedule lightens) I don't want players to be able to reference this. This is also really poor in description so I apologize for this, not having time to properly type it up...

    Children of Aspera

    Now the one thing that I'm also curious about is a possible plot. I have lots in my head but.... any tips on what to possibly try to center around? I'm not asking for a whole plot, just tips with the current world state what could be done.

    Children of Aspera

    @Bacon is fluffy Picture finding and I have a love-hate relationship ;-; That map. That map. OhhhhI could rant about it for hours. I first had to make it on some sketchy AF generator, then screen shot it, and then finally take it to power point where I do my editing (Yeah I edit photos on...

    Also, yeah, naming is kinda weird. I recall being a mixture of extremely ambitious/extremely lazy with naming things but that map took hours to make so I think it might just have to stay.

    Children of Aspera

    I kinda based the Tarian state off of modern day dictatorships and past communist regimes. I see what you mean though, I'll have to brainstorm some ways the SNTS keeps contentment with the state. Perhaps a 1984 like government with a TON of propaganda? If I recall, I think I was trying to not...

    Children of Aspera

    This has a TON of information in it from a roleplay I've been adding onto for years. I'm going to make it again sometime but I finally want some critique on both the world and story. Don't complain about length, you've been warned. Also, I apologize for any gramatical errors. All of this was...
