[quote]Fast? Slow? What is just right? What sort of pacing do you like for RPs and why? Please feel free to post your answers in this thread![/quote]

Given I'm someone who writes more for NRP than anything then it'd be odd to say that I like it "slow". Most of the time my contemporaries act like they simply want to be the biggest the soonest. I prefer a sort of style where the individual actions of characters within the nation/faction can be played out and shown how they effect the greater scope of the nation/faction in their own way. On this basis, I like it when I can do something of at least a day-by-day basis, generally ascribing each page as a week.

This helps in "modern day" RPs where travel between countries is roughly a day and by your next available post you can have an envoy on the other side of the world to carry on a story arch. I'll admit it's not a healthy system for RPs set in earlier periods where flight isn't possible. But I still like to move at a pace where I can explore the possible dozens of arcs/sub arcs as a way to dictate how the larger nation/faction acts as a result.
