The Art of Rping
Request Etiquette
√Generally, more information is better.
√Include your limits. Likes. Dislikes. "I rp everything" is rarely ever true. Nor is "I want to rp" helpful. Remember, you can always look at other people's requests.
√There are nifty Inactive, OnexOne, Group specifications!!! In order to use them, you have to view your first post under 'go advanced'. The drop down is next to the title.
Rping Etiquette
√Spell check and following your partners' limits is simple enough
√Make sure your post is something they can respond to. Rping is a dance different from writing by yourself. Even if that felt like a great place to end your post, make sure you're not writing a one person show.
√Don't just start an rp or post profiles with no forefront. No one is going to respond if they have no idea what you're doing. If you have not requested partners or posted some kind of story guide/requirements, how are we supposed to know what you want us to write.
√Always remember to compromise! If what you wanted or expected didn't happen, don't strong arm your partner into it or be rude. They also had something they wanted to write.
√Keep in mind the other character's personality and don't expect them to do OOC things just to give you the scene you want. Basically more compromise. You don't get to pick how the others act, so try to understand the other characters well so you can predict their reactions.
