Ah, well, I know that people from outside my RP's have followed them before when they thought the concept was interesting. So at least the idea isn't completely foreign to me.

I can relate to this! I was that kid who looked on as a group of other kids played really fun games and would think to myself, "That looks fun, but I'm too scared to join because it looks complicated". This was back in another forum that used to be pretty active. I've followed a number of RPs before I jumped in. From an observer's point of view I figured out there were certain types of RPers I didn't like and certain I really liked. My stalking habits have considerably lessened since jumping into the fray myself, but some habits die hard I guess.
