Dang. That's a shame.
You should resurrect it someday. whee

There may be a few that would really want that. But I don't think I could; past experience tells me that I'll end up getting overworked and stressed about it, and sooner or later something in my life would come up and keep me from giving it the attention it deserves.

I feel terrible about not trying harder to keep it alive, but I was going through a lot offline, and it was one of those big breaks from gaia that comes up occasionally.

Well that's understandable.
Things happen that require our attention. C'est la vie.

Yeah, it was a shame. The girl that was probably the most devoted to it, (even long after I had given up on it), had made several designs for weapons in a 3d program, and really helped out a lot.

For instance, the standard-issue mag rifles:

Hnng...
Do want.
It sort of reminds me of designs from Mass Effect.

I've heard that's a really good series. I play so few RPG's nowadays, though I guess I did make an exception for Skyrim. sweatdrop

Skyrim <3
And yeah, Mass Effect's pretty darn good. For some reason, though, I could get into the first one a lot better than the second one.
And, while we're on the topic of RPGs, Dark Souls and Dragon Age: Origins are awesome. Love me some dark fantasy.

Hii ^^""

I'm cloudsomnia.. I've never really tried roleplaying but have always wanted to try it out.. so I guess this would be a great time to try it out hahaha x]

I usually write one shots and drabbles on fanfiction.net and livejournal x] it's fun and something I don't think I'll ever give up. I'm currently writing mostly yaoi. I haven't written anything else besides that in a while hahaha If anyone has questions about me, be free to ask x]

*meep* H-hi everyone...!

You can call me Mina...Love the guild, btw ^^;;;;

Oh, well, I'm an aspiring animator and one of the main things I need to learn is to BECOME THE CHARACTER so I can pitch it professionally! (and considering my best bet for what I want to do involves joining DISNEY, roflroflrofl...every little bit helps) I have a good friend called Toxic who is RPing with me and helping me grow closer to my characters, but I still have A LOT to learn! I look forward to RPing here and anywhere else a good story may lead me! ^ ^

and ;O!! whoa!! x3 i suck at animating anything >w> using programs...but i guess there's always time to learn how to xD!
and ;O good luck on learning how to do so :]
though i think, as you rp more and more, you'll get the hang of doing it naturally and think in the person's style of thinking and their habits. x).

It's all about rhythm and movement and character physics, really. How does the character walk? Do they limp? Do they skip? Do they have a spring in their step? Will they walk the same way when they're happy as when they're sad? One walk can define a character just as much as their personality~! ^ ^
It is not that hard once you get to know it~! (Now, animated objects like flour sacks, and animals, on the other hand, is difficult even IF you know their physics!)

Yeah, I hope so! I have a lot of characters I want to get to know more and some charas that are NOT MINE I'd like to try my hand at (Tetra from Windwaker, Shiek from Ocarina of time, Samus Aran, Princess Peach, etc.) because I'd like to try to make animated movies of video games as well ^ ^

i guess it's more of, i suck at drawing ;O and so yeah XD;;
and ;O i find it'd be interesting to learn how to do that x33
But then again, to be able to manage all that, you'll need to know what type of character it is xD.

I think the best way for you to start/improve is to work on one character only, and you have to rp with other people that will respond to you. I find that throwing myself in a group of more advanced people = you can learn much off of them. So maybe you could try to write more than to write just about what everyone else is writing :]. If you want to improve, stick with one character only and delve your mind into that character. It could be another you, with some slightly different characteristics. Something you wish to be. And then once you're able to fully understand how to make the character come to life more and how to give it more traits that aren't your own, then you'll be ready to attack more than one character x3.
