Welcome to Gaia! ::

((Everybody deserves a chance. Besides, there will always be noobs and as yet Bluefuzzy has not set any limits on who can be accepted and who cannot. When she does, I will check background information. And I don't think I actually have 4000 posts yet. Also, I don't think I accepted her because she's not in my list. Unless its the one at school.. And what did you mean by ? We haven't even confirmed you were a part of this and you obviously didn't read the first post properly. It says to PM the profile to me. This is so I can make changes to suit the RP more and also so I can tell you what has happened so far. You also didn't check responses to your post which told you of secific changes to be made. Besides, the is a RP that has been going on for 34 pages, you couldn't possibly understand everything that has happened within without somebody explaining to you or actually taking the time to read all those pages in which case you would understand.

As for the "people who tought you how to rp" part, nobody taught us how to RP, we do it ourselves. You don't need to be taught how to RP, you simply do it. If I were to join an RP, I would check how the RP first. If you have a look, all of the posts here are in full sentences with near perfect punctuation etc. except perhaps the first few with pyrosflame.

Send me your profile, send me a sample of your RPing, however that is, and we will deliberate. Oh and Minasia? Try not to swear to often okay? I can understand your feelings but still..If I didn't trust taht you would delete your post I probably would do so now. And Sora, there's a slight godmod in your post. Minasia never said that May and Minae were sleeping.

Okay, now where was I?))

Alianae turned to face Terra. "It's a long, long story which even I do not know most of. I think he was affected by the build up of Ancient Magick but I also suspect another factor. You may be able to find out more than I can at this moment. You do after all, share a bond." Alianae lokked away to the sleeping forms of Sora and Kalios.

"They were both affected by the bond they share, you weren't because...because you are a magical being and have a spark of Ancient Magick in you. The sickness may have originated from Kalios. Or there was something that wanted Kalios to stay and not come to Alalea and Sora was affected through their bond" she muttered just loud enough for Terra to hear.

((there is abig differance bettwenn typing like you are taking turns telling astoyr and actly tyoing it out as thou you are playing the role which is what RO ing is actuly typing it out as thuo you are telling what you did like so if i wanted to RP that i walkd in to a bar and orders drink i would put it like this if i was RP ))
*walks in to bar looks around walks up to counter " bar tender beer please " * sits down intently taking in every thing going on aroud her *

(( now idid i play the role or did i type as if i'm tellin a story?))

((There is no clear definition of what RPing is. LITERATE RPing is what we do here which is the 'story telling' type. It's a lot more descriptive and allows more room for the other people to move within. If you simply say
*looks sad*
for example, people can't respond as much to that as if you said,
Alianae looked mometarily sad as if a shadow had crossed her thoughts.

Sure, you coulkd debate that you could say
*looks momentarily sad as if a shadow has crossed thoughts*
but the only difference is puntuation and flow of words if you use *these*, you make it harder for people to understand you when your character talks. RPing literally simply adds a few extra words and no crude **s.

I don't understand your last question, sorry. But our main point is simply that it looks better, is easier and more fun to read rather than try and decipher *these* while also allowing freedom to express in words more emotions and whatnot.

And we are not taking turns telling a story because we post at individual times whenever we can be on. If you haven't noticed, each of us has their own characters which we -and only we- RP. Taking turns telling a story would mean we can use all of the characters involved here and write it all by ourselves.

Look, don't tell me - don't tell us, what Rping actually is. I am willing to bet that all of us have more RPing experience than you and have been around on Gaia longer as well. There are many forms of RPing. In the main, there are *these* and there are the Literates. If you prefer *these* then don't go into a Literate RP and tell them that they don't know how to RP properly simply because they take notice of puntuation, grammar and spelling.

When you go into a RP thread, check first to see if it is Literate or *not* and then decide whether to join or not. Also, when joining an RP, read the first post and TAKE HEED OF IT. If it says to PM a profile to somebody, do that and don't just barge in and start telling them they are wrong. It doesn't work.

Look, you're hanging onto the losing side of the argument. Ask anyone who has been on gaia even five minutes more than you have exploring and they will tell you that there are many ways to RP.

When I first started to RP, I simply copied the way that the people already in that RP did. Since you are just joining, you should do the same or just use *these* and not complain about not understanding what we are trying to say when WE RP. Read it like a book. You know how to read, surely? If you can read, you will understand. If you don't understand, it means you can't read. And frankly, I don't see how you could be on Gaia, let alone in a guild based on a BOOK which you must have READ if you can't read. Might I ask how old you are? Because your acting like a stubborn little girl of only eight or ten years.

@Sora: whoops, missed that post, sorry. kyoko84 caught my attention on that page and I didn't see Minasia's..
@Minaisa: It's been 24 hours.))

Alianae glanced at Kalios again and gathered her words carefully. There's...more than that. He's special in a way that can never be replaced. Think of it perhaps, that something wanted him in Alalea not. Do not let it trouble you, but I think it is all to do with..the Will. Alianae closed her eyes briefly. The Will of Alalea? What had possesed her to say that? Terra might not even know about it and here she was blabbing away an ancient secret. When she opened her eyes again, she looked into Terra's eyes and sighed.

Forget what I said for now. It is but an old elf's mumblings. Go to sleep. I will watch over you all until the sun rises. In these last words she imbued a slight hint of magic. It wouldn't be enough to fully send Terra to an unwilling sleep but she hoped the dragon would take the hint anyway.

((Iz, my idea: Just ban the little SoB so that she leaves us ALONE... She doesn't even deserve to be called an RPer... stare Little moronic n00b... stare Even I was better than that when I first logged in!))

Sora sat up straight from his waking dreams, a bit glad to leave the confusing claustrophobia of his visions. Soon, only one was remembered in his mind. He got out from under Terra's spread out wing, and saw Alianae cooking. "So how long have we been out?"

Kalios was still in deep dreams. One kept repeating over, and over, and over. It was a door opening, revealing an old piece of heavily Magicked parchment lying on a pedestal in the middle of a small windowless room. Despite that, the parchment gave off enough light to illuminate the building.

Sora nodded, then looked at the foods. Vegetables, fruits, and what seemed to be carrot juice. OK, he said to Terra, I know you talked to Alianae. What did she tell you?

Terra lifted the lid of her eye open and looked at Sora. I just asked why you and Kalios were affected so badly. She said something about Kalios being 'special.' And then she said it must have to do with the Will of Alalea. Then I went to sleep.

Weird...I had a dream involving the Will, he said, and looked at the food. Other than that, Oromis briefly said that at the last Blodhren Agaeti. That was before he started calling me the abomination, he said, and then looked over at the food, thought magic setting it above the fire, roasting each of the plants, along with some spices, before setting them down again, trying to focus on cooking, and what his dreams and Terra's talk with Alianae were supposed to mean. Then he felt Kalios's dreams. Terra, wake him up, please? he asked.

Kalios woke up when Terra's foreclaws poked him a bit in the side. "You didn't have to wake me up THAT sudden," he said, and walked over to the fire.

"Breakfast is served!" Sora said happily, the roasted plants resting on makeshift wooden plates. For a moment, his troubles and questions deserted him. "Now eat before it gets cold!" he finished, and began eating.
