If you look around the guild, I've made a few roleplays, most of which seem to be of no interest to everyone. My scheadual is pretty full, being a full-time student and having a part-time job. I was wondering if everyone prefers more elaborate roleplays or the simpler ones. I like makeing the big roleplays but they are time consuming and like I said, I don't have that much time, unless everyone prefers the more elborate rps.

Generally, simple roleplays make room for a lot more roleplayers, which often means waiting for people to post, actually getting people to continue posting, reminding those that've forgotten after waiting, ect. While more detailed, smaller, controlled RPs have a room for few, sure, lots of work in the start, but less time waiting for RPers, the sooner you get to RP, ect.
I like detailed, direct plots so I'm not sitting there going "What am I supposed to be doing?", which is why I have yet to actually join a RP. I don't have much to work with. ^^;
Plus, I'm always happy to help someone work on more details if they have an idea, so yeah. Or if even someone gives me an idea to work with, I could try and come up with a detailed, small RP.

I was talking more about the world and abilities then plot. I like haveing lots of RPers and a not so defined plot. To me, having the plot evolve and change is the fun part. I'm just wondering if having so much predefined limits, like what the world looks like and poers working certain ways, is keeping people from rping.

But the who elaborate doens't mean a whole entire world for an RP, could just be a small, detailed area. Not as much work, but easier to work with. Plus, if you want RPers actually interacting, you don't want a huge scale RP world. Hard for interaction if they all start of in different places, and usually characters form 'bonds'(Not just friendship and romance, all sorts.) at the start of an RP, without that, you won't get much actually happening.
And having no plot meaning people have no real direction, which confuses people like me. I need someting direct, doens't have to be a huge thing, but some idea of a plot, and the reason I'm RPing my character. No plot to me is like, being thrown into deep water. No sense of what I'm allowed, or supposed to be doing, no real background to work with, if anything happened to my character in the past, ect.
Each person is different, I've given my point of view, have to see others. I can't speak for everyone.
