    sorry lot of questions, if any of them have already been asked can you direct me to the answers, thank you

    Ok. Here are the answers :

    1. You can set a rpg, but what you wrote isn't enaugh. You need to give way more detail about everything - why they are there, what era is it, times, when did everything started and what was the reason. What can you chose from - a medic, soldier or something, description about the goal, rules and so on. You need to pm the roleplay to one of the mods of this section before you can get it started,m to get an approval, that there is enaugh information.

    2. You can not write other peoples reactions to your words, because it will take theyr freedom to do anything, un less you are fighting, then yes, if it is needed, you can write that it stabbed you or something, but nothing too big or fatal (if you want the other character for some reason, better deal it between the roleplayers, that the second party would agree to it).

    3. You don't need a photo, but it would be nice if you had one, better to imagine what excatly you look like or mean in description.

    4. What stats you mean? abilities or something?

    thanks, the stats i mean are things like: strength, health, agility, ect... how are they kept track of, is it a personal thing, or is it on the actual rp itself, or one of those other places on here, like in a separate thread or something

    i get why you cant, write about others actions, but sometimes your doing one thing and that can be hard to write a full paragraph on, eg "[my character] snipes the enemy soldier" would be all you could really write in the sennario "a lone enemy appears 400m away, and is turning towards you, just to see if there is any danger ..." and you chose to snipe them, thats about all you could write see?, or do you go into details as to how you aimed and stuff like that, or can you say, "then more came because they saw the first enemy get killed" and that sort of thing, or is this still like one of those rp's you play in school where there is only one person allowed to say what happens next in regards npc's? sorry, lots of questions, i know

    Well, if the roleplay needs those stats, they should be written on character creation, and if the character s working out, it should be posted, that he or she gained something at the start of the post. would be easier to keep track of it and edit the profiles.

    you should always write not only the surroundings, but the thoughts, feelings. you can get a while paragahp just by writing where exacly the character is and some past memories or stuff...

    Join a RP?

    "Last Post; 04-02-2009"

    Does that not give you a hint?
    The only activeish RP thread is the Death or Glory. If you're interested, I would recommend sending Skull a PM.

    I'm going to start a roleplay. If there are any alive RP moderators around please pm me or list out the moderators that are most active currently so I can PM them everything like I'm suppose to. If no one responds to this question within 3-4 w/ shipping and handling I will throw a guerrilla roleplay~ :3 thanks~
