See a ***** named Skits can't say hi.
And MLA? And maybe your character development is dead, but I do fine.

MLA is a standard essay format. In role-playing terms it would be considered almost an advanced lit. format. I'm not sure what MLA means though.

MLA format is not advanced literate. It's semi-literate at best. Anything less, is ill-literate.

Modern Language Association, developed in 1985 as a manual and guide to proper writing, in which all counties of the world recognize.
Advanced Literate, is a high use of vocabulary, usually around 1k words per post and requires about 10-15 minutes to read.
Literate is five paragraphs of ten sentences each that had a great use of language and correct spelling and such. They start to get into thoughts and feelings of characters, but still mostly actions.
Semi Literate, is three paragraphs of ten sentences each, with mostly correct grammar and a decent use of language.
Ill-literate is five sentences or less, with incorrect grammar, fragmented and run-on sentences and no use of vocabulary and a lot of text talk.

I guess that means I'm Literate at best. xD
Anywho, on a different note, I made another doodle :3 [X]
Shea, and someone else that doesn't have a name yet. He's going to be one of my characters in this guild, but I haven't figured out how yet. Well, an older version of him.

Bleh, a 10-15 min read? No thanks. Say what I need to and then some, and it's good for me. Throwing in way too much text can just result in tl;dr.
Why you gotta put ice on chains? It just seems unnecessary.

No. Because its one step closer to people being literate. 10 sentences is what I wanted, but 7 will do.

My college roleplay group has a 1500 word count minimum, so i was fine with the ten >.>
and yeah... tl;dr is antagonistic to literacy.
But less people will join if the count is too high, so 7 is fine too.
And a high count slows down the reply rate a lot.
but they are really fun I.M.O. , even if they do get hella ridiculous at a fast rate. Plus, globally nothing ever happens in a high count roleplay because each post is microcosmic and so action generally takes place at a snails pace. But in high count plays like that a year in real life can be minutes in game...and that does NOT work for a bleach guild. So I don't think we can make it true literate.
