[OOC] It's A Wonderful Life! An Imperial Guard (40K) RP [Reboot/Continuation] [MATURE]

[Andreyich]

@NecroKnight
I'm not proposing to retcon other's actions, I'm not an asshole.

[NecroKnight]

@Andreyich@Jbcool@The Lioness

Can we all just stick together and fix this. I don't want to lose our Cap'n or our Vox mate.

[Andreyich]

Done big boys.

@Andreyich

Basic sentence = stop being an ass with John, else your char get BLAMMED.

@NecroKnight

That is pretty much it in a nutshell.

That being said, we do have a lot of people, but people do also need to be aware that there should be some form of posting order. This is why I asked that people 'mention' those involved in their scenes, as well as who they're interacting with - yet it appears that this may not be enough.

As GM, I post when and where it is needed to move things along, but I agree that we do probably need to slow things down as well...not too much, just enough for everyone to get at least a post or two in before wandering too far off course again.

In short...

1) Always ping/mention those involved in your post.

2) Leave some time before posting again, I have to agree that this rapid-firing posting can take a toll on the RP in general, as well as those pariticipating.

3) This is an Advanced RP - as has been mentioned - so quality over quantity is what I'm wanting here; make your posts actually meaningful, something that can develop character and the like.

If I've missed anything, then feel free to tell me/suggest something, otherwise it's pretty straightforward from here on out.

@Jbcool

OOC asides can be helpful I suppose, especially for those of us ESL.

[The Lioness]

@Andreyich arrogance looming threateningly getting right in her face. All disrespectful insulting and threatening.

@Jbcool you weren't at fault and any way and I'd rather not leave but if I can keep up because it's moving as fast as a free rp when I can post once every 24 hours there is no point in me being here

[Jb]

[...] specially for those of us ESL.

@Andreyich

Speaking of which, and I realise you're ESL, could we have less of the 'he would' this and 'he would' that?

Look at others posts and see how they write, in English third-person writing this isn't really a valid form of writing it; this isn't a massive thing, nor a big criticism, just trying to help and make your writing smoother.

@The Lioness

It's only threatening if you see him as a threat. You can raise your weapon and point it at him or anything of that sort anywhere within his walk. He's also not particularly arrogant, just trying to test his skill. We can slow down for you, that's fine, and I apologise if I went out of bounds there. However, there is no objection to scenes without you going at any speed?

@Jbcool

Is this a criticism of the "he?" if it's about that, sorry I run out of pronouns... if it's a criticism about the "would" I can edit and make it nicer, if you like though I may switch tenses like that.

[Jb]

@The Lioness

I'll ask now, as I can imagine you're a good judge of it, but what would you consider a good amount of time to allow responses/between posts?

I'd like you to stay and think it would help to accomodate you, but I also believe that it would benefit the RP in general if everyone did have some 'breathing space' between posts.

The problem with many of my RTPs in the past have been that they were slower, but then they got too slow - people posting once a week more or less - so I imagine I was just happy to have an RP going somewhere for once.

For this I aologise to everyone; mistakes have been made, but hopefully we can rectify them now and carry on forward without having to fracture everything already done.

@Andreyich

Neither.

An example, perhaps?

"John went forward and dropped own to the flor and did fifty press-ups and then ran away over the hills."

Compared to...

"John went forward, he would drop to the floor and he would do fifty press-ups, then he would run away over the hils."

You see?

[NecroKnight]

@Jbcool

Heading offline. Please don't BLAM eachother.

[Andreyich]

@NecroKnight Could you remove the post interacting with me? I know it's my fault but either way it's still void so for the ease of reading remove the paragraphs?

[The Lioness]

@Jbcool at least 24 hours. I mean I work two jobs. So realistically I can pop up a post once a day since I write at night when everyone else is down then going ahead past the current point I'm a dongle rp with others but rping in the past at. the same time is nerve wracking. I'm not sure about others availability though.

@Andreyich wasn't calling him arrogant. he basically called her arrogant. Buts she's the captain of the company the way johanna would realistically act to his actions I can't write because of courtesy and rules

[Jb]

@Asura

Still lurking, eh?

Would you be willing to re-join us if we quieted down a bit?

However, there is no objection to scenes without you going at any speed?

@Andreyich

I think it's more a case of letting other people get their posts in before posting again. They may want to interact with your character, you may want some time to muse over a new post, some people may want to see something happen without having to scroll through a hundred unassociated posts.

That sort of thing.

[iTem]

@The Lioness Nothing too important but Johanna's name reminded me of this beautiful song. <3

[Dannyrulx]

We...
We're getting a command tank?
HELL YEAH!

@Jbcool

I understand, but sometimes (almost always) another player writes something interesting, or sometimes there is a great path for character development; these wonderful people I'm RPing with make me so eager to reply!

[Asura]

Or, you could collab if you're doing rapid fire, back and forth kind of content and simply post your combine efforts as one, condensed post. Much quicker and easier.

Fair enough. :)
