Do you prefer to be a member of a roleplay or a gm of a roleplay? Also why for each or why not for either.

>Having been both, I can say that sometimes I want to be neither because sometimes I simply hate the act of writing. Prose is the constant bane of my existence with how infuriatingly clunky it is compared to my imagination, where I can just visualize shit without having to worry about context, phrasing, consistency, etc. In my head I can just be, but on the page I have to shackle myself to more concrete forms of conceptual conveyance. More often than not, however, I am a player and I find it easier to be so since it requires a smaller investment of time than being a GM.

I'd rather play than GM ngl, it's easier to be able to manage s schedule around someone else's.

Well I've had far longer (and actual completed) RP's when I've GM'd them. So there's that.

The times the GM was the primary reason it stopped altogether (versus other players/outside drama) especially on this site is probably a 20 to 1 ratio.

Usually the first time after one of the other players fail to follow a rule, or show that they failed to read information in a prior post. And the GM will become hyper-fixated on it, and end up spiraling down after. Versus punishing the culprit in-game/IC and moving right along.(Mistakes happen. Don't let it spoil the whole RP.)

That, or the GM is ironically the very first to drop their own creation. (Effectively wasting the other players time.)

But both can be equally entertaining (or miserable) depending on the group/individuals you've decided to roleplay with.

@Dark Cloud Pft. Like I said, 20 to 1. You simply put yours on a long, long hiatus. :P
