Hahaha I can't wait.
One of my friends I'm trying to teach to roleplay keeps mixing up 1) her own characters names, calling "Sylar" "Myre" and thus posting twice for "Myre". In several posts. And she only has 4 characters in that thing, all OC's. 2) Twins, my cousin's OCs, in the same roleplay. Aebyl (Abel reference) is nice and naive-ish, while his brother Kayne (Cain) is rude. And she keeps calling Aebyl the rude one... >.>

You definitely have to make sure you know you're posting to.
Also, know where you're at XD

I have that problem all the time.... People are like "Goes here to talk to, or make action with character." or something similar, and then you're like... "O.o You're on the other side of the earth then, how can you even see me, let alone interact with me."
That, and keeping track of time -.- I'm the biggest failure in this XD

That's because people rarely pay attention to detail. You can have your character look up at the clear night sky, but others will still say they hurried t get inside before the rain came.
I once mentioned that all the cupboard doors were long gone from a room, only to have someone's character hide behind a cupboard door. stare

Yep. I was also in one where one minute there would be people everywhere then nobody around when a group of mutants made their escape.
Do you want any more stuff for your thread? I have stuff I could send you.

Yea...I haven't run into a lot of those problems. *Seemed to have started off roleplaying with awesome people and generally kept it that way*
I always try to make sure I get details right though. I might not read every post word for word (if they are long) but I make sure to know what I need to in order to respond effectively.
I do hate how people try to start all in the same place a lot of the time. Especially when you are not going to be. Of course it depends on the roleplay. You might all start off in the same city or in space or whatever. But still...even in a little town you aren't ALL going to run into each other at the same time. Gesh!

Sure, but only if it's your fail ^.^
I usually only get the good people, but everyone now and then -.-
Know what you mean, when everyone is like: "I'm going to try to make it over where this big group of to many people are ! =D " .... No... Bad!

I play all levels of literacy, usually because I don't like post lengths. A post should be as long as it needs to be in my opinion. Besides, if I only played with good players I'd never have any stories for people to laugh at.
It can happen. redface A quiet character won't but an assertive character who wanted directions could.

I love post length ^.^' I can't help myself. Three or more paragraphs is my requirement in my RPs.

I love action in posts. It doesn't matter how long it is to me, so long as I have something to interact with. Gaps and silences can be important too.

I can't stand it when people can't figure out what to do in a fight, especially in the middle of it.
