[quote=@Candelabra] ...but then you have to go into the conversational section of the writing which is where the bloat I was talking about comes from. I feel like if you have to write constantly when there's not much to say, then you're setting yourself up to practice Purple Prose. [/quote] Then don't? I've never really had that problem. If everyone's seated at a round table having a discussion, You can collaborate, bunny, or simply write less. I've never really thought to myself: "Shit! I need to blow this up to five paragraphs so that nobody thinks I'm slacking!" I must stress I have yet to really write in this forum's advanced section, and am simply familiar with that style of role playing. [quote=@Candelabra] Though I do think that you can very easily integrate that kind of lore in a Casual RP. [/quote] You can, which is probably why I've never felt the need to post outside of casual.
