I like casual players, because I like to give everyone a chance for improvement. Not that casual writers are bad in their own regards, but I feel advanced writes are able to touch more bases in a single post. For my it's about character depth, and development, being able to see through the characters eyes. To feel their emotions, reactions, feelings, generally builds a strong attachment to a character.

In casual for me it feels like everything is just the bare bone, enough to keep things moving. But where's the depth? I know people who could easily write in advanced but stick with casual. For their own reasons. Also, it's not just about post length. While I love having something to read, I also understand that perhaps a boss fight scene isn't going to have eight paragraphs. Two-three meaty ones are sufficient. 

Then on the other hand I've seen advanced writers who detail the forest, and that bug, and the rock the bug is on, and the feel of the earth beneath the rock, and how damp it is, and why its good for growing plants, and what kind of plants, and what kind of bugs.. and fml. I don't have the attention span for writing a novel, so roleplay is my outlet.

On the final hand (I have many) I like to play in advanced because a lot of casual writers get intimidated easily, and then "ghost" out or feel as if they can't keep up. (Ghost out = disappear with no word, drop out silently). I make mistakes like everybody else, and being the GM (which I prefer) I tend to write a lot more at some points because I have to govern the world around you.

--IMPORTANT--

In this particular roleplay, not everybody HAS to be in the same place at the same time. There will be opportunities to do special events, which may affect things within the roleplay, or not. (special items worth a lot of trade value, fame, upgraded living, equipment, etc.) But that's not to say accepting every event will get you something out of it, maybe the one who stays behind gets something different? I will however, promise to do my best to keep everybody engaged no matter where they are.

The biggest problem most people have, and I am quilty, is leaving a post off in a hard spot to articulate a decent reply to. That's why Collabs are wonderful, and I encourage them. 

@Levi:: I have a one x one with you, and I just want to let you know you could easily join any advanced roleplay you want. You shouldn't even feel intimidated at all, you write very well, and it's quite engaging, i look forward to our reads.

P.S :: I apologize for the delay on that, as you are aware my lady is down and I tend to devote more time to spending with her. Replies takes me around an hour or two, so I will find time to reply when I can. If not I guarantee I can get one up thursday. The first chance I have I'd like to get deadland started (perhaps that will hold you over?). 

Then again, I have Sun-fri off next week, so I'll probably find time to get Deadland up. Right now I'm waiting on character sheets. Then we'll vote on starting location. So there is no need to rush. I will maintain a presence here for your questions and concerns. Once we're ready to go I'm sure my lady will understand :) She's cool like that. (I'll make her play minecraft or something hehe). 

Remember! I love creativity, ideas, and questions. Never-ever be afraid to ask me a question, no matter how trivial.
