Cue wild Greiger. Wild Greiger used IDEA! Ahaha, this sounds interesting. I don't see why things would get out of hand if the thread is moderated. Make it be!
The idea actually came from the great and wonderful Ichiro, not Greiger. Though I'm sure the dude will contribute to it if/when he gets the chance, this is 雷影 イチロ's brainchild.
Have we ever had "bullies" in the RP Corner?
Welcome then, newling~I assume we can discuss anything about roleplaying? I had a few questions though. So, people who sign up for a particular thread come up with their own stuff for the plot, right? How do you deal with the ones who go rogue and start doing weird stuff? ('cause I can totally picture myself doing so. xD)
Are there any active roleplays around here that are accepting applications that don't require a description of characters' physical appearances? Also, are there any active roleplays that the characters actually interact and communicate with one another? I've read through quite a few roleplays and a majority of them are just the characters on their own dealing with their dealings and interacting with NPCs they create. I'm not interested in interacting with characters I create.
Even though it's advised by professional writers, I don't like planning out my characters ahead of time. I like letting my imagination take control and go into something blind, and develop the character with a blank perspective from the beginning and, during the duration of writing for that character, learning about him or her and developing one on my own organically.
For those of you who meddled around in the Other Trivia Section, you'll know what I'm talking about.
Otherwise guys, listen up.
A while ago, a thought came to me regarding the distinction between the Discussion Thread, and normal IC threads. When the Incredibly Wandering Thread showed up, and people started to post in it I thought; Why not make an RP like that?
With the working title as the RP Corner Nightclub, essentially it would be a thread where RPers could go to casually RP in a semi-social environment. It wouldn't require any sign-ups, but rather people could come as themselves, their forum persona, or as any of the myriad characters RPers have from RPs new and old.
I'm still working on the logistics, regulations and layout of the thread, but would people be interested in this kind of thread? Discussion of topics over a cold pint of Beer* with your friends, or play a game of Fooseball or a Pokemon Battle with another RPer. I guess what I'm trying to get at is it's not a thread where talk is limited to being about Roleplaying or and IC that has to follow a linear path or requires and SU; practically a casual RPing thread that you can have a little fun in.
Any takers?
*Non-Alcoholic drinks served for those underaged. XD
What? No, c'mon, Skymin, that was incredibly related. Power Gloves are the epitome of roleplay!^ oh dear. what have you done this time, SV?
Haha, as long as you discuss something related to roleplaying, you're fine. Those guys were talking about power gloves so I decided that wasn't really... roleplay related. d:
