-For each RP, there will only be one post. Should you be making any changes, just edit that post.
-If you are looking for a partner for a certain RP after an amount of time has passed, say so at the bottom.
-When asking from help, make sure your questions are clear and literate.
I'll edit this post to add the Do's and Dont's of RP making. If you happen to know any that I hadn't posted, let me know through PM and I'll add it to the list.
Do's
-Try to use either a popular genre or an original idea (as if you were preparing to write a fanfic or novel)
-Keep it flexible. A plot that can easily expand into something even more fun is never boring. (I have a example, but it's in another guild. Captain tohru honda, you know what I'm talking about.)
-When you're going to be absent for a time, let the other RPer know, if possible. You don't have to include details. Just something simple
Ex: Going on a trip for "X" days. Brb in 1/2.(meaning half an hour)
Ah, you know what, I'll just add a terminology section for Noobs as well...
Dont's
-Do NOT control your partner's/partners' action(s). Like, commanding the other person's RP character. It's rude. What you can do is hint at what your character is doing.
Ex: The Don't - "A" shoved "B", forcing him to fall to the ground.
The Do - "A" shove "B", hoping/trying(the hint) to make him to the ground.
The Exception - "B" grabbed "A" as he fell.
-Don't use pictures with a large bandwidth(size). It stretches the page and can greatly inconvenience someone using an older computer or old internet model.
Pairings
Due to a realization introduced by a friend, I'm going to post the actual page here.
RP Terminology (or Netiquette)
How folks talk on the net is as vast and various as people are. With each generation, there are additions to the different shortcuts as well as the different types. The lastest one is txt-talk. (Though it's quite old.) So, try not to get the two mixed up. Because it went like this: computers&satelitephones->teletype&housephones->internet->skipskipskip->WWW->netiquette&cellphones->txting&5Danimation. Teletype is the very first shorthand. BEFORE internet! Internet came next. Txting came last. So now we're back to the beginning. I'll list all the shorthands that is known, both well and not.
Lol = laugh out loud
Rofl = rolling on the floor laughing (also equals this: rofl )
Wth = what the hell
Brb = be right back
Ttfn = ta ta for now (don't you dare say it, I know)
Tnt = till next time
tT.Tt = blue lines/gloom face (an emosmiley hasn't been made for this yet)
Noyb = none of your business
Ttyl = talk to you later
yaoi = malexmale
yuri = femalexfemale
regular loli = older male with younger female
regular shota = older female with younger male
bl = boy love
shonen-ai = a different form of boy love that usually concentrates on emotion trials rather then intimacy
shoujo-ai = the same as the one above, just with females
JUNE = a popular franchise of yaoi mangas and other products
Fluff = like it says, an indicator that the target of the story is the 'fluffy' feelings ne gets from reading it. (Ex: 'Oohs' and 'Aahs' of the 'that's cute' faction.)
hard-core -anything- = just a way of saying that whatever the subject is, it takes on an extreme form
bondage = ... ...I'm not doing this one. (For various reasons, one of them being, I hate it.)
Erotic(a) = ... ...I really don't know about this one, truth be told. If one of you know, and it's something not suitable, then don't mention it.
Owari = the japanese word for 'finish' or 'end'. Is being rapidly and more commonly used at the end of fanfictions of japanese origin or just for fun.
{Ah, that's all I have at the moment. But believe me, I'll think of more.}
