@Kratesis This is all cool and all, but I still don't know why you think not a single change can fix the guild.

@Ammokkx

This is a misrepresentation of my position. I don't feel the Guild is broken. The Guild appears to be doing well. I feel that there are several problems within group RPs that cause them to have a poor success rate.

Because there is more than one problem I can't think of a single individual change that would address all of reasons why group RPs have a low success rate. If ten parts on a car wear out replacing one part won't fix the entire car. The issue is more complex than that. Not every group RP fails for the same reason. Nor do all group RPs that fail to complete do so for a single reason; most are fighting against pressures from multiple fronts and eventually the forces that drive the RP forward are no longer sufficient.

If there were just one problem someone would have solved it by now.

Fear me, for I am a man-child with no social skills!

Welcome to the guild and thank you for the lols in that there title hehee.

@Raddum My friend you seem slightly perturbed. Perhaps even upset. As if you feel I have disrespected your street gang or dishonored your dojo. Such disrespect requires retaliation of course. And thus here we are, trading snarky remarks over the internet while the micro lynch mob grows.

That raises the question. Do I:
A: Ignore you until you forget and go away.
B: Phone in the long ass explanation post to appease you.
C: Pretend to apologize.
D: Tell you all to go fuck yourselves.
E: Make snarky comments back (obviously I lean slightly toward this option ;-P ).
F: Explain why I don't want to write a really long and detailed post and getting dragged into a multi-page argument that will no doubt involve a grand amount of passive aggressive remarks, snark and barely veiled insults because there is nothing in it for me?
You guys (and galls?) aren't going to be open to what I have to say. You are already angry. You aren't really interested in my perspective; you just want to bait me into putting myself out there to give you a target to beat up on because you feel disrespected by someone who you feel is beneath you in the RPG hierarchy. The group mind has decided I'm guilty before I even present my case. So why not skip bail and save myself a lot of energy, time and verbal punishment?

If I thought you lot were actually interested I might put in the effort to oblige your request. I say might because I am a person too with my own interests and preferred ways to waist time on the internet and to be honest if I find it is more interesting to chat with another friend or catch up on a TV show I would do that instead. I don't really feel any obligation to explain my bitching in the bitching thread and I wouldn't even if we were all on friendly terms. Which, does not seem to be the case, I must say lol.

And you know what? It's totally cool. I do understand where your feelings are coming from. Plus this kinda thing is just part of being on the internet. Sometimes your the windshield, sometimes your the bug lol.

@BCTheEntity Like I said above I'm skipping this round of posts because my characters reaction wouldn't be anything notable :-)

Maybe people drop out of roleplays because we all get hung up on the introductions, which are boring as fuck?

@Sypherkhode822

You are correct. That isn't the only thing wrong with the Guild style group RPs which have one of the worst success rates I have ever seen but it is big contributor.

Ultimately though the Guild way of doing group RPs is so broken that no single change will fix them. But that isn't what people want to hear.

@BCTheEntity Well done

@BCTheEntity I've never felt as uncomfortable reading a post as I did reading about the fate of those poor fingernails...I don't know whether to say 'well done' or be afraid!

@jbeil

Lol me too. For whatever reason I'm just squeemish about finger and toenails.
