4.) I ERP. I ERP because it's just another form of writing for me. It's fun, it's often times funny, the scenes can be anywhere from awesome character development fodder to having me laughing so hard with the dialogue that I can barely see the screen, and it's just enjoyable to write. I even allow this in scenarios that have questionable views: adult lalafell, characters who are adults in Eorzea but wouldn't be adults in the real world (15+), so long as it fits the theme and is part of legitimate character development, and all of the players are over the age of 18.
5.) I spend a lot of time wobbling over character concepts, especially where the lore is concerned. I want to make a character who fits well within the lore, but I don't want to feel so constrained by it that I can't create. This means I spend too much time on creation and tweaking, and not enough time really playing my character, or even the game. That can be frustrating.
6.) I'm always too nervous to approach people who have 'walk-ups' in their search info, despite the fact that they genuinely let other people approach them. I always worry I won't be interesting enough, or that they'd rather find something else to do with their time. I have a decided lack of confidence in my writing skills lately.
7.) I flake out sometimes when I'm RPing with people and another person joins. This means I end up sitting and reading as a spectator more than writing myself, because I just find enjoyment from watching others RP, even if I'm not interacting with them.Â
8.) The oddest thing I've ever RP'd is a glowing rock. I did this for almost two hours once, and had players laughing so hard they were crying over voice chat, begging me to stop. It was also one of the best RP's I've ever done.
