Another enquiry, but you don't get if you don't ask  I know there's a lot of writers here, with some devoted to writing for TS2 or premades, whilst others are seeking to move away from that, so roleplay seems fairly inclusive but good for progression too. And eventually I get to the question... I was wondering if you guys wanted an RP board? At the moment I seem to spend more time here than my own forum, so while I'm 'manning the fort' and the other staff are away, I figured I'd put the question to you guys... though that one may take a while to set up  |

Am I going to sound really dumb by asking this... But what's roleplay? I haven't come across it in writing context before...

I left out the explanation because I fail at trying to explain it Basically you would invent your own character, use a sim or something to make a little avatar of them. You might have partner or group who you would roleplay with. Everyone would be writing in third person what's up with your character. So you might be in the cafe section of the RP board, and something like this could be going on (only not on the spot/rubbish): Annie: Annie took the seat by the window. Usually the morning sunrise warmed her, preparing her for the sunny day ahead. Only today her happiness waned at the sight of daylight stretching above chimney tops and sky scrapers. Gerard: There was evidently something amiss with Annie that morning. She had been a regular customer long before he had ever settled for working as a bus-boy, and in all his time there, he'd come to look forward to her sensuous smile as she looked lustfully toward the morning sunrise. Her morning wake up was also his, all it took was that smile... just not today. He pondered its whereabouts from behind the counter, not knowing whether he should ask, or allow her one glum day. |

Ah, I see Sorry about that! My dumbness aside, I would definately be intrested in that sort of thing. |

So is it just where one person picks up the story line and continues where another left off? Or am I competely misinterpreting that? Sorry. I guess I'm not familiar with this concept, either, but it sounds intriguing. I'm sure it would be a great addition to the forum.

Absolutely!! Especially if TV shows, books & the like are allowed. I may not participate, but I could still, either way, I'd enjoy seeing it on here! ;D

But its not quite 'anyone can jump in', though I think it would be cool if it was. You usually find someone to RP with, and you can just follow on from where they leave off, or you can devise a plot between yourselves and follow it through. I've only tried it once or twice for short periods of time, but it doesn't work if there's not really anyone interested. |

Oh, okay. Thanks for explaining.
I actually like the idea of it being between two people rather than an entire community. It makes it more personal that way.
And I would totally give it a try if it became a feature here.

Oh my gosh I haven't roleplayed in so long! Yes, yes I would very much like a roleplay. I thought about starting something like a sim roleplay on my own, but I had no idea how to do it (that and I absolutly suck am horrible with making rps). I had a couple of ideas and then it fizzled out. But I would love to be a part of it here!! |

Yay Although, having only set this up once, and having delegated most of that and been rescued by the fabulous Hillary, this may not go strictly to plan, so any help would be welcome. Especially with two staff AWOL (BB is on holiday) :S |
