Winnie, my post are normally written like that, however, since the Guilds went out screwy I can't just clic on pre-codding button that will format everything. So I'm usually just too lazy to type the coding. However, I think that post written normally aren't really pretty and clean. I just realized, thanks to Peri, that making it size=10 and color=black makes it pretty too and waaaay shorter to code.

No, I used to use tektek toolbar. And there's a LOT of Coding that wont work in the guilds that will work in the forum. Main reason why I even stopped trying to make my postings fancy lol. Every time I come up with something that works in the test forum, I come here and it doesn't work at all >>

The guilds are always behind the forums. =/ The forums have an autocorrect thing, so if there's a faulty code, they either make it so that it works (like closing the tag) or just omit it.
Last time I checked, the tag didn't work. Made me sad, since I use that one all the time in the forums.

What are these terms we're all using?! D< I just quote my posts and delete the [quote ] [/ quote] thingy. o 3o And I hate forums, guilds are where it's at! xD Forum roleplays are soooooo demanding nowadays. You can't even get a spot reserved on the mildly decent rps because someone is better and faster than you.

Hahah, I know Winevy. xD Back when I did the majority of my roleplaying the forums, I would get so tense. I'd send in a reserve and then I'd refuse to even move from my chair until I got a reply, in case I had to fix something or the spot was taken and I could take another.
I don't do much anymore unless I get a request or it's a onexone, because I don't have much time to crank out a few thousand words with each post. >.>

It's just too much stress. D: And like you said, I don't want to post like fifty bajillion words in one post with only like 30 minutes, or 'we'll deem you unactive' and it moves too fast, I get home from school and like three people are now going out, it's just too... I dunno. xD I never really liked it, and I still don't. I prefer mostly OOC and some roleplaying in guilds like I do now. One guild I only chat and fix up some stuff, this guild I do both, and the other one I actually chat on chatango and roleplay a tiny bit. And the posts can be short. 8D

See, I always had the opposite problem. o________o People would post really slowly because they had to do these really bulky, time consuming posts (my average post would take me about an hour to type it up and code the text and whatnot) and so we'd never get anywhere. Which was sad, because there were some really awesome plots and characters.
I like guild roleplays because you actually make progress. 8D I do have to slow myself though, because it's too easy to rush through everything.

Bleh, I couldn't find what I was looking for and I'm too busy to make somethign up lol. So yeah, listen to Loli!
My problem with Forum RP is that they die way too fast. Lots of people join, then half of them quit after two days. I also prefer Guild RP. The only problem with them is recruiting people to join.

>C I agree with everything you said Lone... The GOOD ones die in a few days but the SHITTY ones live forever. Really bitter since EVERY one I join either DIES or get CRAPPY roleplayers. I'm not even all elitist about it, hell I could care less about someone's length in posting as long as it's not a single line, or even if they spell every correctly and use proper grammar since I got issues with language or someshit so writing isn't somehting I'm good at. Just as long as their characters aren't two dimensional it's all good, but some people just... just so boring. Some characters just have no development at all, have no personalities, hell it's like they're not even characters! D= Like if someone roleplayed an NPC! Even a small hint of personality would be nice, even if it all it amounted to was "they like flirting" but not when all they say amounts to "uh yeah" and "okay" and "my parents are DEAAAAAAAAAAAAD" >C
And the ********. Who are "SUPER AWESOME IN EVERY WAY AND PERFECT AND SHY AND CUTE AND NICE BUT MEAN AND SERIOUS WHEN THEY CAN BE" Just... just pisses me off. Especially in Pokemon roleplays, because ALL of the Mary-sues in those have a team either full of legendary Pokemon like Mew or Jirachi, or the legendary dogs (Raiku, Entei and Suicune, probably spelled wrong) which are meant to be near-impossible to get in that world. Or worse... a team full of all of the eeveevolutions. >C Eevees are meant to be rare dammit! They're supposedly an endangered Pokemon or something, BUT NOOOO.
>.>; I'm gonna take the rest of my rant to my journal, it'll be nice for everyone who reads it and wants to hear my ranting again/hasn't had a rant in awhile...
Sorry about that. <_<;; Anyway!

Oh, I know what you mean Peri... I know what you mean... Hence why we have rule #4! 4. Make your characters realistic. No fantasy type characters. Human only. Also, please don't go overboard in character pasts. Nothing like, She-Who Must-Not-Be-Named after being forced into sex by jimmy as frank held her down they made kina watch and brittany watch after wards they tortured and burned brittany's eye's till she was blind and malia became a house mother working on college courses online part time since she couldnt finish high school due to rumor's but over all she is a loving cheerful girl she also wishes to write childrens stories and help victims of abuse and such also

>C Know what's bad about that? I dated someone and she roleplayed THAT bad. Her characters were always orphans who's parents and sisters and everyone died when they were 6 and they were raped, then their foster parents were killed at 10 again BY THE SAME DAMN PEOPLE, and she's still ''super happy and doesn't show any bad effects from seeing EVERYONE ******** die around her"
/wants to punch a baby now.
I'm just glad Hoji isn't like that. >_> Instead she reads shitty profiles with me to build up our rage. :'D
