I'm old. I'm here to write, not do web design.

"oh this rp looks cool" "why do i have to squint to read posts and sheets?"

My big pet peeve with RPN culture is I have to squint to read sheets/posts a lot of the time which is why I haven't really joined a lot in my time here.

I think the biggest thing barring compatibility with ideas, style, etc. is flexibility.

I've been all over the place. Most of the forums I grew up on are long gone and some aren't even on waybackmachine. Of those that are still around I've participated on Iwaku, Role-Play Adventures, Roleplayerguild, Animeleague, Gaiaonline, and a slew of others.

That's just networking. You find a group of people with similar tastes, who are compatible with your writing style, and you have fun. Pretty normal experience.

When I was younger it was always touch-and-go. I'd have a title, a vague concept, and a character for myself in mind. I'd make up the rest as I went. It was rarely sustainable and the most successful RPs ended up being reworked and rewritten in future attempts. Today, I run things similarly...

Or F List.

RPs should stick to one style of FC if you're using them. Actors should not be standing next to medieval fantasy art and anime art. A lack of consistency not only break immersion but also creates a clash of styles that just doesn't work.

I don't know what to tell you. It seems your adverse to making connections with people and in your own words, curt to people when waiting for posts, so I'm not sure how much legs this managerial almost business-like approach is going to earn you on modern websites. I've been writing online since...

Yeah, anytime. I'm around.

I'm a music aficionado so I get it. I'm especially well read and listened in music of that particular scene and I do see the potential.

Might be worth looking at 1980s films and television series plotlines of the time (of the slice of life variety) to see what inspires you. If you stick to a struggling band overarching narrative, you can play with usual music biopics-type storylines (manager drama, etc.) and alongside that each...

A good percentage of successful RPs is just networking. It's not even high effort networking, but just talking with people, vibing with them, and collaborating. I'm 34 years old with a lot of responsibilities and I had no issues cultivating a culture around my RPs through just trial and error...

OK is on the money. There's a difference between descriptive writing and purple prose; much like how simple writing isn't always minimalistic. I do also see Sugarnaut's point that it isn't worth much to get flustered about what our partners are doing or experimenting with for their prose as long...

Quality posting is far better than needless novels, yet one should never neglect detail when one feels the need.

That sounds like a fun experiment to dive into a period piece set in the 80s depending on the sort of storylines you want to tie into it.

12, at least, if we're talking about forum role-playing. I had been doing stuff in chats and guestbooks as early as 1997 and I was like 8 years old then.

Another factor to consider is presentation matters. You can have an aversion to coding and just want to get to business, but if your idea isn't well presented with good formatting then it'll attract much less people because they will assume your content has less effort into it. Though I will...

Cassie Lang I think its a matter of building up your reputation and finding groups (or rather, people) who you are compatible with you and your expectations.
