Madda was wondering if anybody had any more tips on how to immerse yourself deep enough to actually make a lengthy wiki page with oh so many examples to choose from. Madda's maybe a moderate - heavy experienced and really wanna flesh out Towering and future Au Ra kid.
Why do you post in third person?
Quki believes this isn't an important question -3-
People say unimportant shit every single day. I'm curious, so I'm asking. I don't think the OP needs your input to decide whether or not to answer.
Well you are just a blossoming ray of sunshine, aren't you?

It's a tragic tale. Madda used to talk normal before a cantakerous Black mage cursed Madda to become crazed and wild. But he mispronounced the word and ended us casting a Curse of Maddaning!

Ever since then, Madda has scoured the lands for a way to remove the curse, but there seems to be no way Sad

Go to Quicksand.

Find someone you don't know.

Start talking to them ICly. Never talk to them OOCly except for big issues that need to be resolved.

Have fun.

I actually like getting to know people I rp with OOCly - doing PvE and whatnot with them. Actually being friends. Any reason for the rule?
I assume it's to help OP achieve maximum immersion. If you start being friendly with someone on the OOC then you might even start becoming friendlier with them IC even though your character has no reason to.

I suppose that's true.

Hm. Just discovered I value Fun > Immersion >_>

I think immersion is sort of a buzzword. I'm never quite sure of what it truly takes to establish and I never feel totally immersed regardless. I can get pretty engrossed though. If i can entertain another player and myself, I'm satisfied.

When I was a little kid and I played games on the playground with friends where we pretended to be cartoon characters or whatever we were all still friends after and we all knew who each other really were despite what we were "pretending" to be at the moment.

I view RP as the adult version of that.
