o-o Reminder; I said 'kind of' going off topic. KIND OF. Lol. Most of what was said was on topic, but it was getting deep enough that we were starting to sway. =D I'm also incredibly sick right now. It really sucks... ;-; But I'm glad to see people letting out some frustrations about experiences they have had. It's always good to let it out--to breathe. ^.^ I think what I hate a lot is when someone comes to you, you go into mass details about RP, and then they ask you to post first. So, you post first...and you never hear from them again. THAT bugs me more than anything. More than people disappearing later one. I feel like they purposely wasted my time. On my current threads, I tell people that; "If you don't want to roleplay anymore and don't want to tell me the real reason as to why, simply tell me "I'm too busy to continue this RP". I won't ask questions and the RP will be done with. Because at least the I am aware that it is over. I get really pissed when someone vanishes for 10 days, then they go; "Oh, I was busy." I'm sorry, unless you have an EMERGENCY, you can spare a few seconds, or a minute or two to send your partners a, "Hey, sorry about this, but--" message. If someone vanishes, I will lose interest in the RP after about 5 days if I don't hear a word from them. It's hard to keep interest in a story when it just comes to a stop.
