Hello, potential partner, and thanks for choosing to take a gander at my interest check! I’m going to try to keep this as brief as possible, but I do feel there are some things I need to establish before you click that ‘send message’ button and inquire about an RP with me.
First off, I have been a solid RPer for upwards of 5 years. I consider myself a seasoned roleplayer. I know the rules, the etiquette, and the expected propriety. I expect you to know them as well. No, this does not mean that I’m going to jump down your throat if you slip-up. I am not, by any stretch of the word, an austere person. I do this for fun, and I want it to be fun for others as well—being strict and uptight does not coincide with a good time, does it? I simply don’t want to be correcting you all of the time because you are oblivious or are just plain ignoring the basic rules enforced by all roleplayers.
Secondly, as of now, I am looking to take on only one RP. Because of this, I am going to be extremely picky about who I take on—meaning I am requiring a writing sample from anyone interested in starting up a plot with me. Since it’s only fair, I am more than happy to provide a writing sample as well upon request. Please do not be offended if I choose not to RP with you. It is not a reflection your writing capabilities, but rather of how I feel our writing styles would mesh. Note You will get major bonus points if you come to me with a plot to pitch.
Lastly, and perhaps most importantly, I consider myself to be an advanced RPer and am requesting that my partners be as well. Advanced to me does not mean that you can vomit a 3,000+ word post at me. I am mostly looking for quality writing. As for myself, my replies usually range from 500-2000 words, especially in the beginning. I understand not being able to conjure up a long post every single round. I’m really not a huge stickler about post length, and won’t mind the occasional short post, so long as it is at least two paragraphs of quality writing.
Whew, that was wordy, wasn’t it? If you survived that and still want to talk RPs, it's best to shoot me a PM, as I am not always good about checking on this. I look forward to hearing from you!
