make a new topic per character, story or something

D.J.P · « **Reply #2 on:** July 05 2005, 12:29 pm »

Its explained in the Getting Started Topic what to do to start off

monkey · « **Reply #3 on:** July 05 2005, 12:35 pm »

uh... no its not, i'll just do the safe thing and wait for someone else to start a topic

D.J.P · « **Reply #4 on:** July 05 2005, 12:38 pm »

whats missing/confusing?

I think I convered the basics

Okamirei · « **Reply #5 on:** July 05 2005, 12:40 pm »

hm...I suggest having an example listed?

monkey · « **Reply #6 on:** July 05 2005, 12:43 pm »

like each person creates a topic about thier own character. or all in one topic with like basic details (maybe given to use to fill out?)

and seperate topics for actual stories

D.J.P · « **Reply #7 on:** July 05 2005, 12:43 pm »

got a example for me?

Vexnet: Its one topic explaining the theme and listing the charcters.

After that is done and character positions are filled, then the main topic is created.

Hope that helps

monkey · « **Reply #8 on:** July 05 2005, 12:45 pm »

yet the characters are still to be created...

D.J.P · « **Reply #9 on:** July 05 2005, 12:47 pm »

they won't just be one RPG game, there could be many going on at once.

If somebody has an idea for a game, they post a topic, explaining the idea and the character postions available.

Okamirei · « **Reply #10 on:** July 05 2005, 12:50 pm »

here's what I've been sort of aiming at as my idea http://www.livejournal.com/community/_islandcountry/

example? ano...

you create a new board...

Theme: what the characters are in...like the story, the place, etc.

and then uner that you post the characters needed in the theme

-Syaoran
-Sakura
-kurogane
-fai
-mokona
and so on...if made-ups are allowed, you should include that in the post.

then people can start replying to the board to claim a character or such. when you have enough characters, the person who made the board can start the roleplay.

D.J.P · « **Reply #11 on:** July 05 2005, 12:54 pm »

ok, I've added that to the 'Getting Started' topic.

Okamirei: you are a mod there, so you can adjust that topic and add to it any useful information.

Okamirei · « **Reply #12 on:** July 05 2005, 12:56 pm »

I can do that? o.O; lol. *is still confused about a mod's job*

D.J.P · « **Reply #13 on:** July 05 2005, 12:57 pm »

Yes, you can

Mods can edit, delete and lock topics/posts.

Okamirei · « **Reply #14 on:** July 05 2005, 01:00 pm »

alright

modified your post a bit, had a few typos

D.J.P · « **Reply #15 on:** July 05 2005, 01:00 pm »

that happens sometimes with me (I hate my hands)

- I've added you to messenger aswell, if you ever want any help

lika-chi · « **Reply #16 on:** July 05 2005, 01:09 pm »

i still don't get what you do at this forum.. ?_? haha

something about making a list of characters and then what?? i'm sorry. i'm not really feeling well.. so i'm really confused. haha

D.J.P · « **Reply #17 on:** July 05 2005, 01:10 pm »

Read this topic or the getting started topic in the forum

(and if you aren't feeling well, you should be in bed, not browsing the net)

thanks.. that helps. and SLi i already READ the starter topic.. why else would i be asking. i'm not that stupid. and ok so i wasn't feeling fine. but i wanted to stay up. i'm usually on the internet on this forum only when i stay up. techinally i'm always on this forum and nothing else.

Ruby Chan · « **Reply #20 on:** July 06 2005, 06:26 am »

I read the topics too, but I'm still confused. It just doesn't make any sense to me...although I've never done RPG before.

Okamirei · « **Reply #21 on:** July 06 2005, 06:29 am »

I've put a small guide to roleplaying http://www.capturedwings.net/forums/index.php?topic=922.0 ..I'll add more to it later.
Ruby-sama, what doesn't make sense to you?

lika-chi · « **Reply #22 on:** July 06 2005, 06:30 am »

can't someone write a more detailed thing of what exactly is a RPG. even though i read both those threads and the thing okamirei wrote.. it's still a bit confusing.

so you have to write a list of characters and a theme for the first post. and then what?? is it basically a story or something???

Okamirei · « **Reply #23 on:** July 06 2005, 06:32 am »

hn...I'll do what I can >.<

yes. after that, the person who made the topic will start the story

lika-chi · « **Reply #24 on:** July 06 2005, 06:35 am »

o i see. haha sorry okamirei. i didn't see the post before my last one before. we probably posted at the same time..

ok i'm pretty sure i get it now. THANKS!!! hehe XD

Little Wolf · « **Reply #25 on:** July 06 2005, 11:50 am »

Great! Now, I understand how RPs work.

Those guide topics are really helpful, SLi and okamirei.

D.J.P · « **Reply #26 on:** July 06 2005, 02:11 pm »

You are totally welcome

Okamirei · « **Reply #27 on:** July 06 2005, 02:13 pm »

*nods* you're welcome!

Robin Sena · « **Reply #28 on:** July 06 2005, 04:26 pm »

Well, let's get started! (Well I did)

Sakaki · « **Reply #29 on:** July 06 2005, 04:42 pm »

You guys are all awesome for putting this together.
Can't wait til we get into the playing!

Syaokura · « **Reply #30 on:** July 08 2005, 01:19 pm »

I also updated some examples of what not to put for RPing, such as Mary-Sues and what-not. =3

Okamirei · « **Reply #31 on:** July 08 2005, 01:27 pm »

is it all right if I make the "beginner's guide to roleplaying" a sticky in the RP forum, SLi-sama?

Robin Sena · « **Reply #32 on:** July 08 2005, 03:28 pm »

I noticed things are pretty slow.

I hope we can speed it up somehow.

D.J.P · « **Reply #33 on:** July 08 2005, 03:41 pm »

Not my job

D.J.P · « **Reply #35 on:** July 08 2005, 03:46 pm »

Robin Sena · « **Reply #36 on:** July 10 2005, 12:13 am »
