[@NuttsnBolts] Well, yeah. If they're not roleplaying then what are they doing here, and why is it the Guild's problem?

I'm just under the impression that a number can be turned into a roleplayer and thus, they can become a valued contribution to the community. That's why I mentioned on the last page...
[quote]What I have noticed is that there are less discussions in the "Roleplay Discussion" section, which in reality should be overflowing with people discussing various topics and not enter into an abusive war. Maybe topics on things like "What can you do if your RP dies?" or "How do I manage bad players into good ones?"[/quote]

I just believe there needs to be more support for new people and new GMs, as well as regular checks on those that have been round for a while to see if they need a pick-me-up. This can be quite a lonely hobby and if you don't feel like youre making a difference and that nobody notices you, then why would you actually bother? At that point that's when you are most likely to drop an RP, and it's not always going to be the newbie, but it could be one of our valued veterans.

Lose a member, and you lose their creativity and imagination. Embrace them and your limit of discovery has been expanded for the entire community.
