Hello there. I am considering porting over and remaking an old roleplay of mine from another website. I've managed to work my way through the formatting code differences, but now I'm curious as to whether or not my rp's old 'look' would work or be out of place on roleplayerguild.
The site that this rp was built on, it was common practice for roleplays to have a 'frontpage'. This would mean that the first page of the thread would be taken up with different sections of the roleplay's setup. Such as a spot for the introduction, a spot for the setting, a spot for rules, a spot for other random things. And then "reserve" posts would be saved up for the remainder until the front page was filled. Which was 15 posts in total. Most of these reserves for the sake of neatness.
I have noticed that here, all the information seems to be being put all into the first post of the OOC section.
I feel as though if I were to do that with the rp i've got, it would end up looking far too long for just one post, and possibly look messy and jumbled.
Would it be considered excessive or weird if I were to use the way of formatting I'm used to? With the separation of pieces on the frontpage of the OOC?
