Hey guys what's up over the next few days I'm debating on whether or not to permanently leave rping. I'm doing this for two reasons 1 is simply time 2 is because I'm getting the impression that I'm not welcome here seeing as I can barely think of anything creative or as note worthy as other people's ideas. So over the next few days I'm going to take a break and if I leave I'll post again so people can remove me from whatever rp I was already in. This doesn't mean within these few days ill be completely gone ill just be in where I belong which is in the gaming department.
Thx for reading.
You're always welcome, in my opinion. All I think you should do is what I did pretty much, which is work your way up. Start at a smaller RP, then keep going gradually up until you think you can go at it in bigger, veteran RPs.
Why do I roleplay?
It's interesting you ask. When I first came to PC, my first thread in the New Users forum was titled "Just a fan." I saw people making hacks, spriting and stuff, and I felt disappointed I couldn't give away anything. People told me about Gaming Central, and all these other places. But I wasn't a hardcore Pokemon player who set up trades. I mean, sure, when the GTS gives me a Zorua for a Patrat in Black, where it was event-only, I'll jump at it (this actually happened to me). But I wasn't big on this whole thing. Not a entrepreneur. Not a breeder. Not a hardcore player. Just a fan.
I eventually wandered into the Roleplay section. I looked around, really just seeing what I could find, what I could do here, etc., and I ended up looking at Hoenn ReBURST. I had seen the manga, read the summaries. This was awesome. I looked at what they did there. When I had originally thought about RolePlaying a year ago, I would've said "a twenty-sided die." Now, it was ten times awesomer. It was writing, within a scenario, and it was fiction. AND THERE WAS POKEMON IN IT.
I stayed in RPing for all that time afterward. Sure, it's time-consuming. Sure, it takes work. But heck, it's fun. If I could get paid for doing this, I would wish for a full-time job, pronto. And I've liked it ever since. I stay because its fun, its a hobby, it's unpredictable. No videogame can match anything I've RP'd about.
