[quote=@Life in Stasis] I never write unless I feel like writing, or if I've promised to write something (which is rare) by a certain time. When writing becomes an obligation, there's no fun in it. And if there's no fun, what's the point? I see these statuses in the sidebar talking about how their RP partners are lurking and spamming the OOC forums, but not writing posts. Like, who do you think you are? Are they required to devote every second to you? If they have a modicum of free time, MUST they do it writing posts to you instead of chilling out and relaxing? It's a lot easier to spam funny memes then to dig in creatively to write some post for some demanding jerk. Go to hell. If I'm on the site, I'll do whatever I please. And if you get a post from me, you should be delighted, not placated. (Disclaimer: This is not in relation to any RP I'm currently doing, I don't feel pressured, this is just my violent reaction to status bar messages and my RP partners of yesteryear who can totally go to hell.) [/quote] I simply cannot hover over an IC thread making continuous responses :p my roleplaying mode is very, very different from IC mode, and it takes a small union of circumstances for me to be "into it" at a given time. + life affairs, whichever ones are relevant at the moment. Part of why I don't like chat roleplays, and especially lower end roleplays with several players where some just barge by because you took 5 minutes to make a post. Like, what the fuck?
