[quote=@Shinobu] Welcome to the Guild! If you don't mind me asking, what are "polyvore/urstyle" Roleplaying? I've never heard of those terms before and my curiosity is certainly peaked. [/quote] polyvore was the original site, but urstyle has replaced it since it died in general, the format is as follows: -GM (mod) writes up "pre made characters" (like a paragraph or a few bulletpoints about the character, sometimes with provided name/age/fc). people pick which pre-made they want to write for, and multiple people can "audition" for the same character by filling out the CS -CSes (auditions) are accompanied by "sets", aka collage-ish things to show the aesthetic and stuff of the character -GM picks who gets to play each character after CS/audition process is over -usually followed by a plotting period, where people message each other with ideas and char first impressions and such -the "IC RP" itself is basically one post ("story") per event (GM provides lil blurbs about each event), accompanied by a set for each event. people would make the set and ask people to comment to include their characters and/or work out inclusions via PM beforehand. there's a greater degree of freedom re: controlling other people's characters than there is on here (you can write into your story that someone else's character said something or w/e, and obviously if the person who the character belongs to objects you change it but more often than not people don't seem to have too much of a problem) not sure how well I explained this but happy to link examples lol there are definitely exceptions to the general format most people have done -- i'm THAT bitch and don't really like story RP style, so my rps on there tend to be more aligned with how things on RPG usually go lol
