I walk on the boulevard of broken dreams during this holiday because I'm the Jesus of suburbia.... Look for the song references and win a cookie.

@gamer5910

Sorry, I was just stalking you to let you know it's your post on Code Lyoko. BTW, awesome song. I used to play that on my bass when I was upset. Now, give me cookie by posting IC for me. :D

[Esailia]

Sorry all. My net went down and was unable to get it back up till tonight.

[KatherinWinter]

Its OK those things happen

[KatherinWinter]

Poke.

[Esailia]

Still here and still waiting. I've already got a pending post to be responded to.

[gamer5910]

Are we waiting on anyone in particular or is it me cause I'm not really posting cause there's not much to say besides I moved out the room with Cassandra and the new girl.

[KatherinWinter]

Ummm....good question

@Esailia

I've kinda been waiting for you to post. But I'm happy too, soon.

[KatherinWinter]

Well....looks like this has died again

@KatherinWinter

I refuse it!

[KatherinWinter]

Estilia has lost interest. I could speed things up but not today. I don't like rushing things.

@KatherinWinter

Did she really lose interest?

[KatherinWinter]

She told me

It's just the RPs I prefer tend to have a more engaging plot, and I now want to officially fall out of The Experiment.

[Midori]

I'm still here I just have loads of work stuff keeping me busy. I'm even at work right now. (>.<)

I wanted to explain the reason for my no longer wishing to participate in The Experiment. I understand everyone has their own level of roleplay skills, as well as time to make posts. I am also aware that sometimes it's a bit repetitive at times. I started roleplaying on WoW over four years ago now, and I still feel like my roleplay skill is not the best. I have certain standards when I am here in the casual section of RPG. Call me 'elitist', call me picky, I tried my hardest to ignore my peeves in order to work with what was given to me, to cooperate and give all possible allowances in order to be fair, while putting everything into my posts. But when I constantly get two sentences, or nothing at all, to detailed posts...It just became a chore rather than enjoyment for me. What I enjoy is when I have engaging reactions to my posts, and not just a response or comment. I will be working with Katherin to gently disengage Rendyl from the story. I will not just abandon it as it is right now and leave you all in an awkward position. While I no longer wish to participate, I don't want to be the cause of this RP dying.

I only came to the Casual section after being assured several times that my writing fit the requirements. Dont worry that isn't a mistake I will be repeating. Three people isn't enough as we have seen. As much as I like this plot it is doomed to fail.

The thing is, right now it's very hard to do detailed posts without being repetitive, or without have a long detailed post about a cat. It always ticks me off when someone uses that as an excuse. Especially as in my experience casual can be anything from an average of four lines, to sometimes 10 or 11 paragraphs, which I would consider high. I know we all have standards, but it really ticks me off when someone uses "lack of detail" as a response. Do you want detail, or do you want massive posts with a lot of talk? Do you want repetition? Because I find nothing kills a roleplay faster then repitition. I've been roleplay for...8 or 9 years now, I'm never sure. I do it for fun. Do I sometimes get ticked off at a small post in reply to my posts that can be detailed at times? Yes. But I also understand that sometimes it hard to put that detail in without becoming boring and repitative. In anycase, I am glad that you aren't just leaving us and therefore leaving Cassabdra and the others talkin to air. I also think that at the moment, it's hard to be completely reactive to Rendyl, as they haven't had a chance to know here, and it's, in my experience, harder to react to someone that is more telepathic then anything else. Given time, I think it would have been easier to write better posts in relation to her. In anycase, I'm always sad to see someone go in any of the roleplays I am in.
