Just a quick warning.
Typically rp threads on this forum result in insane one-upmanship and in general just being insulted.
The only ones which have worked are some of the longer ones started by or carried by our resident author(who sadly only visits now) Riho-dono (ie. specialist, demon world,vamp/ninja).
If anyone would like to try and join those, feel free.

*forms out of black mist around ninjagirl and thrusts a small knife up into the base of her skull. Then proceeds to fade back into mist, having fulfilled her mission of eliminating the source of the rp thread*
(OOC: *shrugs* Kenpachi is more or less correct. The oneupsmaship impulse is strong in those who rp...hehehehe... Anyway, to elaborate, simple rp's tend to end up that way. Story rp's get so complex that only people like me and Ken-chan can keep up with them. I would suggest finding a site with a usable chatroom if you want to do a normal rp so badly. It is a real pain to do simple rp's in a forum.)

I seriously pity you if you think that is typing too much.

That's probably because people like Riho and myself actually enjoy writing. That's why we did all of those other story threads.
Unless there is an almost immediate responce from other people who actually want to rp short entries do not work. If you need any proof take a look at the other threads. The ones with the greatest hit counts are the ones based on story style rp-ing, the ones which have only a few hits have short entries before someone invariably kills the person who started the thread

"In your days?"
Christ snod you make me feel old.
Still, it's nice to know that people actually read the stuff we wrote, even if we stopped updating a while ago.
Speaking of which, I talked to Riho about maybe starting up one of the old threads, but both of us (especially her) are involved with a lot of other projects so don't hold your breath.
Still, if there is one thing that motivates people like us, it's feedback (not flames).

Definitely feedback. I despise pointless compliments and insults both. Constructive criticism and compliments are both welcome, but most of you could learn from this saying, 'If you don't have anything intelligent to say, don't say anything at all.'

Comments like
'd00d ur fcukin m0r0ns lulz'

I am a snob... I'm arrogant, I have an elitist attitude, and I despise morons... I'm pretty sure that makes me a snob...
As for your MacBeth project, exactly what do you need? I won't write it for you, but I might be able to help you.

Snod: Don't worry, I was just joking around. I wouldn't write your paper for you, but I don't mind giving a helping hand.
Jones: Thank you for the warning and advice. I'll be honest, I can get a bit arrogant sometimes. That being said, part of the reason why my writing style on the forum is relatively long is partially because I've been writing a lot for my classes lately and transitioning back and forth typically to me doing a hell of a lot worse on a paper.

No, I'm just a really introspective and somewhat perverse person. I like to think I can realize my own faults and do my best to work to lessen their effects. I also thoroughly enjoy admitting to my own faults, as I believe that acknowledging them in words leads to a greater understanding of one's self. Though - like all human beings - I can't always control my urges, I do attempt to do my best to think rationally before speaking.
I also generally like to put myself in another person's place before I ruthlessly cut him down with words, and that generally stops most of my insults before they ever reach the surface. While my base personality is more than a little elitist, I try my best adapt my actions to suit a less discriminate approach to others... if that makes any sense...

;D lmao!!!! You think your HUGE pointless paragraphs hurt my feelings?! Try coming up of thoughts of your own instead of stealing shit from web sites and pasting it here. You people make me laugh... It seems that Jones is the only person here who is not a fraud, and also not an ass kisser... At least HE is not a snobby prick.

Snod: By "make it into a different version" do you mean taking the basic premise and turning it into something else?
If so, there are a few things you could do.

No Jareth, we are not trying to hurt your feelings with "huge pointless paragraphs". If you are self-delusioned enough to believe that people actually want to take time to send vicious long paragraphs, you're in good company. Let us both revel in our own pipe dreams. I'll imagine that I'm not a complete and total idiot and you can imagine that people care if you live of die.
I AM a fucking snobby prick, and I have no reason to be. I, however, hold no delusions that I'm any better of a person than you. I'm fulling willing to bitch at the crazy psycho on the street corner and so I'll continue.
*pauses for a moment to flip Jareth off*
What the fuck man? You have a fucking problem with what I do? You take personal offense to me giving advice to people who are trying to do something I enjoy. You get freaked out my long strings of words? Guess we have a George Bush supporter on our hands.
This is a fucking RP section, what the fuck do you care what we do, you never bother to contribute anything. If you think the whole idea is stupid, which I can understand, ignore it. What do I care what you think?
Make the world a better place. Take the gun, shove it in your mouth and pull the trigger and blow your brains out.
This rant has been brought to you by the Society of Ending Snobbiness, exhaustion and Flamers United.

*to Kenpachi* Exactly how long was that building up? Its not healthy to let your rage build like that...
*to Jareth* I find the implication that I am a plagiarist offensive, and quite frankly, I find people like you exhausting to talk to... mostly because it is like talking to a brick wall. It is generally pointless (though I am doing it at this moment...) and it tends to make my temper rise to inadvisable levels. If you put some thought into your responses, I would probably feel like responding in a more positive manner, but I suppose that is too much to hope from the human equivalent of a brick wall. Why you seem to enjoy making a fool of yourself in a public forum I have no idea, but I would hope that you could learn some self-control... it is really helpful in daily life.
*to Snodster* A re-write? God, I might be able to come up with something if your teacher just wants the theme and the basic plot, but if you're going to have to rewrite it with the entire story intact... that would be a real pain in the rear. Of course, plays are often not done faithful down to the last 'thee' and 'thou' to the original script, but it would be almost physically painful for me to do a modernized language version of Macbeth. It would feel too much like blasphemy... well art-blasphemy anyway.

To long Riho. Way, way, way, way, way, way too long. I can't remember the last time I went on any kind of non-mental rant. I've needed to do that for the last month.

Back to the original problem, story rp threads are very useful for increasing your language skills and for teaching you to be flexible in your writing style. Understand that I used those threads for testing myself and finding the occasional kindred spirit... well that and I love creating fantasy worlds just for the hell of it.
I don't think I can adequately describe the pleasure of creating a fantasy world from scratch. It gives you a god-like feeling that clings to you for hours or days, and it is far more addicting than any drug.
Unfortunately, it has the side-effect of making you more than a little arrogant... as I'm sure the more intelligent people here have realized by now. If I wasn't making money off of it, I would probably have had to deal with an intervention by now.

ugh god, riho, ken, u guys are getting annoying dudes, just drop it already. we get the point, your pride yourselves on showing your vast knowledge of grammar and the English language. we understand, no point to continue attempting to burn the lil ones. its the internet, try to relax a bit, no real need to break out the unnecessarily long words and sentences for this kind of thing. dont think i'm sticking up for jareth or anything, but is this really necessary? *to Jareth* I find the implication that I am a plagiarist offensive, and quite frankly, I find people like you exhausting to talk to... mostly because it is like talking to a brick wall. It is generally pointless (though I am doing it at this moment...) and it tends to make my temper rise to inadvisable levels.

" It is generally pointless (though I am doing it at this moment...) and it tends to make my temper rise to inadvisable levels. " *talking to you piss's me off* " If you put some thought into your responses, I would probably feel like responding in a more positive manner, but I suppose that is too much to hope from the human equivalent of a brick wall.
