This is where you put your complaints and suggestions to me about the Roleplaying Forum and all that goes in it. I'm open to critisisms and am totally willing to attempt to settle differences between two roleplayers.

One thing to worry about when running an rp on the net is number of players. Normally, having six makes things more interesting, with more character interaction. I'd be a little wary of taking on too many online, though... You have no idea which ones plan on sticking around all the way through, and how many just saw your game in passing and decided to sign up, never to be seen or heard from again. Even if you do get players who intend to play, there's other factors... A player may be robbed of their gaming time. I, for example, am just now reaching a point where I'll be able to do this for the first time in around eight months. The more players, the more random factors. Six players may still work, just be careful.

I was actually impressed by the rules you laid down, especially your descriptions of powergaming. These are some of the most common complaints in online roleplaying... Should I be surprised you knew this?

As for Pinnacle City... Is there any explanation for why the city is like this? I'm sure we can come up with something.

And darn it, why can't I start posting Dynamite Raver?! xp

We can discuss Pinnacle City via PMs, I would love your input on that. Do you think I should lower the player count to 5?

And Dynamite Raver can't be posted yet until I have all the details set up. razz Patience is a virtue...

Bah. Since when am I virtuous?

I mean, just look at how I'm dressed!

If you wanted to, yeah. I just find games with dice remove some of the threat of power gamers. If you want to play in a game that's dice free, go for it. ^ ^

Meep! One post!?
PostPosted: Sun Nov 26, 2006 6:03 pm


What do you mean by one post, ZarJa?

Perhaps you mean one thread?

This is a post. It is, in fact, the tenth post in this thread. There are four threads on this forum.

I was reading some of the RP you are doing and I like the idea around it very much.
