This phenomena I recall being much more common with the older roleplaying environment, especially as early forums rose to popularity at roughly the same time as instant messenger roleplaying became more mainstream, [@DocRock]. That said, I have not seen much of it in the past decade or so, where a continuous character is used and a separate topic devoted to them carries on, to include interaction from other players. It is, in some ways, a relic of the past and in terms of community here, few players continuously use the same characters time and again, let alone interact much with one another's in the out-of-character context. There are places to do so, such as here on the Roleplayer Guild under the "Character Sheets" section, where the thread creator can appeal to feedback and interaction, as well as keep an ongoing log of events for that character. That would afford you the ability to work on small details to have questions posed in public.
