[@Ashevelendar] And others will think you are just backpedaling. ~shrugs~ There is no reason to present a deception or lie to get people to answer. That's just presenting a falsehood and there is no need for it, no matter your "reasoning" - it creates a air of distrust and others will take it into account in the future if you should choose to try to join one of their RP's or they see you posting an interest check to be a GM. Stay up front and honest with people. It is far simpler that way. 

I stand by what I said - If you are going to RP - you must read ALL posts BEFORE you post.
