    Provided it's good, of course. I'm still waffling about the Trademeet thread, and the Forbidden Forest thread is too early to tell just yet.

    I am involved in two games right now. One in the SPS and one in the RP Corner. The Forbidden Forest one looks interesting but I'd like a little more info.

    There certainly is too much waffle in some of these roleplays. You need more interesting stories and characters. Examples: Shalladeth and Takara.

    Rashemen was my first one. It's become my D+D fix, I've pretty much forgotten my POR game. Trademeet had a different feel than Rashemen from the beginning, more hack-n-slash, which is fun in its own way. Forbidden Forest just started this morning, so who knows what will happen.

    Mostly I don't get involved here anymore because nothing catches my interest. To be honest - you all bore me :p

    Though in the past I have, of course. I started Pirates of the Sorcerean, and been involved in several other mostly unsuccessful RPs. Actually, I remember them all here being dismal failures (except for the 'I am t3h kewl' kind of character-wanks that were the Tavern of Infinity/Dusty Dwarf Inn sorts, which no longer interest me in the slightest)

    Lawl doesn't stand for anything. It's how "lol" sounds to me and my friends. Like if "lol" wasn't an acronym, it would sound like 'lawl'.

    I enjoy most of the RP's on this site, but I usually wait to see if it will go anywhere before I join :p

    BTW, lookout for a sequel to Tak's Pirates: A New Beginning very soon ;)

    I like to have a more action packed adventure you always need to stop and talk. But i dont understand some of the quests in real life i wouldnt join them they're not convincing enough.

    I like a bit of a story, a little humor. Don't care for characters that get to extreme..too powerful or inane. Action is important. If the story doesn't move I get impatient, my character therefore gets impatient. I don't mind waiting for people to post that the way it works in this type of game but the RP should move.

    Therefore: Who is the most important person in role playing? The DM/GM that's who/whom.

    I need a fight every so often, but if the story's good, I'll be patient. If it's just rambling, blech, but if it's rivetting stuff like Rasheman ;) then I'll wait. Humour's also good. And maybe romance :heart:.

    Well, I can usually get into a game easily. Though, maybe it's just because I'm there, they usually fall apart quickly. I always wished that Station Phoenix had gone a little better. *Sighs*

    @Kilty: A new pirates? That sounds good, though I'm not sure Tak will be wanting me again. I loved the last Pirates one, and loved RP'ing with Ara. Good times. Oh, and you too, Kilty... :p
