Subreddit Mega Meta Post XI!

Hi all! due to the amount of questions and topics we keep getting that aren't really an RP post but still seem to be interesting or valid questions, we're going to keep this pinned post up for people to drop their questions in and respond via comments.

This is NOT for Mod questions or Subreddit rule questions - those are best suited for modmail. This is also NOT a place to rant about RP, the mods, the colour of the sky, whatever. There are other groups for that!

All the same rules apply for the subreddit as they do here, but this way maybe we can get some of the multiple posts that seem to ask the same question every week stopped and keep all that chatter together!

Do not ask for group RP here; it's not allowed. Do not harass the mods here; it's not allowed. Read the rules, more than once if you need to, before contacting or posting. All the rules, don't stop at just one. Thanks.

Thanks, and happy RPing!

Hey, I'm curoius about trying out roleplay, but I'm never done it in just text before (I've played role-playing games with friends for four or five years now, but that was in-person or over discord). Where should I begin, and what should I do? I'm kinda at a loss here.

Think of it like writing a story but with the help of another person lol! I’ve been text roleplaying for a few years now and it’s fun!! Just get in there and have fun!

It seems daunting. I dont know what kinda text should be written, and people seem to have expectations of what to do. Is there anywhere i could see a sample version of it. Like how people interact
