Just wanted to chime in and ask if anyone else has a good ass answer for 

"what does success mean for me as a GM/RPer"

At some point I want to edit in a few of the answers for that to the OP.

Successes for me is completing my goals. Yes, that is finishing the RP, but that is a very long term goal. I also have lots of short terms goals that I strive to hit. Sometimes it's wrapping a player up in the RP's story, getting a reaction out of someone,[s] acquiring a waifu [/s],or just hitting any kind of milestone. I don't really set out with these goals in mind, they just kind of pop up while I'm RPing. I guess Success for me is just ensuring these little goals actually appear to me. so long as I have an objective, I seem to be enjoying myself.
