HAHAHAHA, do I want to puke?? Fuck no, I don't save most of the shit I write. Though there's an occasional gem that I do screenshot and save on drive.

Oh, 'nother thing! It sounds like you're getting a lot of "yOuRe doIng iT weOooOong!!" from potential partners. You're not! There is no right or wrong in this context. Do whatever makes you the most comfortable. I'm sure first person POV can work in some situations related to RP, but in my...

When it comes to writing a story, writing in first person POV of the protagonist tends to give it more immersion than if written from a third person POV. In stories, there's just one protagonist (usually), and that's it. If not one protagonist, then there's the one in first person POV. I rarely...

I'd like to add to this. Unparalleled Skill: Become OP through skill. Make them a specialized OP character, unbeatable at their own game. Perhaps they possess unparalleled knowledge and power related to hacking and hacking alone? They can't fight for shit but they can hack their way around...

I don't know about you, but I like to describe smells in some scenarios (gunshots, superpowers, disgusting apartments, etc). This would just take that away if you're writing from a limited POV. So, I respectfully disagree. (: 5. Give them some sort of physical flaw that may be perceived as...

fuck no its not normal, dump their ass already But seriously, it's bad roleplay etiquette to control someone else's characters especially without their permission. Seeing as it did make you upset, you should bring it up with this partner. I'm also curious, to what extent did they control your...

It's an essential, about as much as describing your character's actions. Recently, I've found that I tend to lose interest in 1x1 RPers that have a habit of not describing spaces, simply because it really makes the story feel "flat." While I never expected a full description every single...

I can't say how relieved I am to know that I'm not the only one who noticed this! Ok, here are my serious "nope" conditions. 1) When the OP says "Try to keep up with me." I don't know why, but it sounds like they think that it's some sort of challenge for a potential partner? The last time...

THIS "I only play 18 y/o females who have red hair blue eyes and are extremely attractive and my partner must be a 6'0 man with no more than 6.5555% body fat and he must have hair that is no longer than 4 inches from the top of his head and trust me I will know if he's lying because I just know...

The simplest conflict I can possibly think of for a monk/goody two-shoes character is "their morals won't allow them to do that." This is super simple, super easy and is probably exactly what you explained above. I can't necessarily think of an interesting monk character from the top of my head...

Asking is the easiest way. You should just ask if they're still interested or participating in the RP. If not, then I guess there's not much to do but find more partners. Another way would be to introduce another idea for the RP in OOC and see if they seem remotely interested. It's also a good...

"Can we RP about two friends separated when Hitler made the Berlin Wall?" "WHEN HITLER MADE THE BERLIN WALL" "WHEN HITLER MADE THE BERLIN WALL"

I feel like I'd get judged for trying to do any form of a hella-dark-completely-fucked-in-all-ways-possible superpowers RP. It's not your usual spandex thing (even though most superhero stuff established that spandex is long done away) and not even your standard "cape punk" you'd see nowadays...

I really like where this idea is coming from, and it would definitely shift the balance of go-to RPs from the current "Fantasy" section. I think it would be better if I responded to each point individually because you provided quite a lot here, but I definitely see potential here if there's a...

I'm sure that the divide you experience between yourself and the players isn't all that uncommon, but it did stand out to me. I've done my fair share of GMing and it does get lonely, mostly because you're the one responsible for projecting your creations onto your members. It's hard to tell how...

This is actually common. I've had co-GMs in the past, and I've been a co-GM myself in RPs that have 3 or 4 GMs. If I were you I'd try to keep that number to 2 (3 if you have a bigger project), or else you could have too many GMs. A good way to operate it is what you mentioned - GMs can share...

I go to the pizza store and order a pizza in person because it's cheaper that way. Lock me up. (Also pizza is a very recent thing for me. I order normal foodstuffs online except pizza.) Guilty of this but I still get offended. In my defense, I never even get proper notifications.

Yeah it's weird. Don't clutter up my threads if you aren't gonna join. Instead, you can PM that person and say you like the idea or something. No need to make your comment public on the interest check, if you aren't going to actually join.

I used to be apprehensive about Male characters because "If I'm not a man, how can I play one?" Well...turns out 13 year old me was wrong! The first time I made a male character happen (not just an NPC - a "main" or something like that), I had fun and got some positive feedback about him. He...
