Coming from an FC that focuses on both slice of life RP and storyline RP, I think both are fine. I haven't really done any of our storyline RP, because Raeje hasn't really fit in anywhere into it. 

That's my biggest fear about storyline RP. I've gotten involved in some before, and I have felt like I'm not even there. Sometimes I feel like I'm just an extra in someone else's TV show. I often feel like the story has already been written, and that half of the time there's no place for me, but people don't want to feel mean, so they say "oh sure, you can be in our story RP", when really they mean "Oh sure, you can watch our story unfold and not actually have any part of it."

I have nothing against story RP. I would actually love to be involved in stuff that isn't just your "Hello, what can I get you to drink?" "How was your day?" RP I have just had a few crap experiences with story RP that kind of put me off for a while. Please, feel free to change my mind. I'm completely open to change. Right now though, I do enjoy my slice of life RP because it's not just 'bar RP'. It's performance RP, it's business RP, it's work RP, it's entertainment RP, it's fame RP, it's a catharsis.
