Hey guys, it's been years since I've been here. It's kinda hard to believe I was barely thirteen when I first thought of RPing here. Looking at my old posts is kinda embarrassing, especially since it gives me an idea of how much my writing skills have improved since then. Wow, it's been a long time. I'm actually kind of afraid to try and throw myself to the wolves and RP again, but it wouldn't hurt to get my feet wet. Anyways, I barely remember anything about how RP's here work, so if anybody is willing to show me the ropes I'd love to try it out again. I'm definitely going to be a bit rusty, but the creative juices are flowing and I'm looking to take advantage of that.

Hi snakebug! I would be happy to help once I get back from work. For now, I suggest reading the different threads on RP rules, as well as checking out the last few pages of some of the RPs. If you have any questions, feel free to PM me and I'll get back to you as soon as I get home.

Welcome back snakebug, glad to see you again. For starter, maybe you can have a look through this post, i think it's pretty detailed on how the RPs work, of course there will be minor changes depend on the RP, but the core of it is still the same:

So question? I have an idea for a roleplay based off a story I have written, and is part of my...my universe, I suppose. What would it take to get said story approved?

first you pitch it to the mods and discuss it here, usually in that order but there have been a few exceptions. make sure not to skip either of these, they're important.

second, if you need someone to help you run it, you recruit them, followed by recruiting players.

third, you get the OOC up and running, and look over the first wave of characters.

last, run the RP.

Is there any interest left at all for the zootopia roleplay we already have? I mean I couod come up with a concept I guess. I was just wondering if some people might still be interested?

First of all, guys, sorry, truly sorry for this very late announcement.
RL is taking over, I daresay moreso than usual. My time for RP has shrunk so much that, as you can see, I can barely answer at all.
If you'll be patient with me, I'll keep posting whenever I can...Or I'll have to concede and let someone else run the show.
Sorry again.

Hey, everyone.

I've been fired from my job. I'm going to have to find a new one. I don't know how this will affect my posting, but in case I slow down, you know why.

One thing I was thinking about recently is this old idea I had for an RP before (or was it during?) Steelhaven. It was about this city that existed in the spots between dimensions that was populated by people from all sorts of different dimensions. The main draw of it was going to be that since the city was populated by people from across the multiverse, you could place as species from anything from Star Trek to Final Fantasy. My character was going to be a Headmaster cop named Fenroar (a pun on Fenrir), whose Transector was a triple changer that could change between robot, cop car, and wolf. I don’t remember why it got rejected, though I think it had something to do with the whole “can play as anything” part. Just wanted to share this with you guys, and see if this would’ve been something you’d have been interested in playing.

I am pretty sure I disagree on the Mouse sacrificing policy, Young Toes, my boy. But the cleaning their own cages I can get behind.
