The RoleplayerGuild Pen Pal Program!

[Rose Swan]

Brought to you by Squee and Rose Swan

It's no fun going out to get the mail every day and only getting bills, junk mail, and ads, right? I mean sure, there's the occasional magazine you've been looking forward to, but those only come once a month, right?

Well, why don't you try brightening up someone's mailbox? Give someone something to do? Have something you can hold on to forever?

Enter the Pen Pal Program.

With the Pen Pal Program, you can find people you can write letters to, and make new friends and learn about places all over the world. It's also a ton of fun.

All you need to do is make one post telling a bit about yourself, where you're from, an activity or two that you like to do, or something like that. Then, someone comes along, notices your post, wants to pen pal with you, and sends you a PM requesting you do it with them. Then, off to your letter-writing shenanigans!!

DO NOT POST YOUR ADDRESS IN HERE.

Addresses should be exchanged over PM.

That's all we request, and if you have any questions, please direct them to Rose Swan or Squee.

Honestly, we could just PM each other and print off our convos to get the same effect.

Oh hey I'm game. I'll send details when I get home.

That's not the same. >__>

It honestly is, two people talking with each other.

Except there's such a huge amount of lag (mailing time) that people tend to write a lot in one letter to one another.

But that's not the point. The point is develop a more personal bond outside of the internet.

I respect and understand that, but unless if you have a big bond/obsession with things on paper rather than through a screen, it's still going to turn out the exact same way.

If you want a more personal bond in the sense you seem to be implying, you need to see the person in person.

But if you purely just want it 'off the internet' and that's it, I have to wonder what it is that's so bad about it being over instant technology as opposed to some paper.

I really don't think that you're seeing the point here. This is meant to be fun. If you don't want to be here, please just don't post here. Let the people who want to have fun have fun.

I'm too paranoid and lazy to participate personally, but I highly commend the idea for the most part. Just be weary of "who is who" when it comes to online personalities, is all. Otherwise, good luck.
