Welcome to another news update. I havn't been keeping up to date with this place much, But i felt an update was required to let you people know
I'm Still Alive.
I also felt that I should post up my "Simple RPGing in X amount of steps" guide.
Spoiler (Click to Expand)
Action RPs: These RPs are about Action(hence the name) An example of this is "Calvin Ball I/II". These are about fights and single events. These don't usally have a sign-up to them and usally people can join in whenever they want.
Story driven: These are about Story and plot. I geuss an example of this would be "Civil war". Most of these have sign ups to them and you can't often join in half way through.
Sign Up/Disscusion: Sign ups usally have these key points for you to fill in to join the RP:
Name:Your name
Age:your age
Disscription:What your like and what you look like.
Bio/Backstory: You biogophy/Backstory
There are sometimes more thingys to fill EG:
Skills: the RP starter will often put down a list of skills for the RPer to choose from. Sometimes setting what job classes may pick what skills.
Job class: Again, the RP starter will give a list of job classes for the RPer to pick from.
Most Sign up threads are turned into the discussion thread after the RP has started. this is where you can talk about the storyline or what's going to happen in the RP.
Some general rules:
1.Player killing is not alowd in Story-driven RPs. EG: You can't come into the story and kill everyone off, even if you are a baddie, ok can kidnap and lock people up though, but you can only kill them off if they say so (sorta odd but can work)
Player killing is aloud in Action RPs as players are often aloud to respawn.
2.Do not control other people's characters.You wouldn't like if I made your character do something stupid.
3.Don't act stupidly. EG: Don't say "Aliens are invading" during a WW2 scene or the sort. It just makes you look like a fool.
4.Use stars (*) or Italics as action quotes EG: *Psymon went over to the wall, picked up a shotgun And blasted the shit out of the zombies.*
5.Have fun, and don't ruin it for other people.
Secondly, On a joint desicion between myself and Joe. A new rule will be put in place.
No more Game/Movie RPs
After the FFVII RP has finished, this rule will be put in place. But generic game/movie RPs are still allowed(EG a Movie kung fu show down)*
Psymon Stark,
Signing off.
