Ive posted in the interest checks and I search and search but I have a very hard time finding reliable people to rp. Any tips for working the sites system to get more interaction or something?

Could be the ideas you're pushing (perhaps there is no interest in your "zombies but not zombies" idea).

Could be the fact that your account is brand new (people might see you as a potential flake).

Could be that you prefer to play as female (most 1x1 checks ask for someone to play male).

There are numerous reasons that could be the answer to your plight in finding partners. I'd suggest taking a step back and comparing your interest check to other checks already posted in the section first.

In addition to excerpts for plot ideas and the list of fandoms/pairings you're interested in, you could try putting up a sample character sheet or two. Or a writing sample.

You might try joining a group RP if you're comfortable with that, both as a way to kind of "get your name out there" and to show potential partners that browse your profile what your particular RPing taste/style looks like.

@BimboTheClown If I were you, I'd look at other people's interest checks and see how they portray themselves and their ideas, what kind of flair they use, etc.

Also, if no one is biting, then you go and message people who have interest checks you like!
