Rp "tips" is pretty much the entire purpose of the site's etiquette section. We'll be posting guides to various different topics after discussing and voting on each one.
That being said, this thread probably could be used to create a sort of checklist for new RPers. For instance, perhaps the first thing to put on the checklist would be deciding your characters race and gender. The next thing may be creating a name, in which a link to etiquette's naming section could be provided. We could just create a step-by-step checklist/guide to creating a brand new character that could help new roleplayers have more depth than they may otherwise have had.
