Â If you're leery of flat out rping with other people you see rping, just send them a tell to make sure you're free to jump in.
As for going into detail, you sorta do a bit less then in a detailed forum post, but you don't need as much detail because there is a physical representation in front of you. Â Pretty much I'll describe actions and expressions I can't replicate in game, but will only mention something in text if it's especially significant but I can do it in game. Â . . .people don't tend to mind if you have long, multi-post posts (there is a character limit), so don't be afraid to go long as you adapt to mmo rp.
If you want to practice with someone in game, I'd be more than happy to arrange a meetup with you.
Welcome to the RPC! Â Happy writing. Â
Sorry it took so long to reply to these. Thank you for the advice! I might have to take you up on practicing. My character can now travel between cities, so he's not just stuck in Ul'dah anymore!
Yeah, I always felt nervous about jumping in when I saw other people RPing because I wasn't sure if it would be okay or not. I guess it doesn't hurt to ask. People do seem friendly from what I've seen so far.

When I am RPing I am almost always in or near the Quick Sand (since it is Workplace, home, and sometimes fun place for Aya
There's an event tonight, Gus Pumpkinweed's Spooky Thirteenth, in Thanalan easily within reach of a low level character in Ul'dah! Its mostly silliness and fun, but it might be something to check out tonight :-]
Welcome again to Balmung!
Thank you! I did go to Gus's event, but I was a little bit overwhelmed by the amount of people and didn't know what to do...BUT I did stay and watch, so I was able to get a feel for what RPing is like. Since I'm really shy, it's hard for me to just walk up to people and start something (despite my character being outgoing. oops LOL), but I'm getting just a little bit better.
