I feel the same about lurkers, they are not allowed in my game, period. Idea thieves and such are abundant, thats why we keep our game posts archive to...
Say, I just realized: You guys may be able to help. I recently met a bunch of new friends who were all into freeform RP, not RPGs and I became very very...

Ok, I've been staring at this for a while, and still I'm at a loss for an answer. What exactly does that mean, they're into freeform RP NOT RPG's? Do you mean...
Got it in one, bebe. Well, long one. This is precisely what I meant: Or is it the freeform part you're looking for, meaning no dice or ... An RP(G) on a...

The best way I can describe freeform is it's kinda like round robin storytelling with each person only adding from one character's POV. It does have it's...
Well, I think the best thing to do would be to snoop around pbem.com and see if anything strikes your fancy. I've got to stress that "moderated" in freeform...
So the other day I was presented with a missive in my inbox informing me that I needed to go easy on one of the other players in one of my games because his...
You have to be careful with twinks too. Sometimes they'll sneak up on you. You can't always tell by the make-up of a character whether a person is prone to...
... A major reason why so many of us GMs have rules that say something along the lines of, "If you have a problem with another player, take it up with me ...
This reminds me of one of the characters I write in one of my Xmen games. He's an asshole and a snob, been like that since he walked into the Xmansion and I...
That's complete and total crap, in my opinion. If your health is so poor you don't need the stress of roleplaying, STOP ROLEPLAYING. But this mixing of IC and...
I have had this come up before a couple of times. A lot of it is personal outlook if that makes sense. It's okay if they act like butt pirates, but if you do...
I can't decide what's more annoying - the players who write characters who are totally vicious and cruel but whine when you give it right back to them IC, or...
Actually there is something else that could be happening, since this has happened to me. An example scenario: My character drops and shatters a glass during a...
That's what I tried to do. In an nstance recently where someone got mad because Becky and I wouldn't let her character play hero and calm down a pack of angry...
I'm sorry... I was writing that post and then some other stuff came up and I didn't quite finish it the way I wanted to. :) I meant for the question to be...
I would never take anything written IC as OOC. Not ever. And going down that road is what makes you paranoid. *lol* I'd play on that reaction - either by...
Actually interestingly enough I did do all of that. It was actually a series of events, simply making an easy anaology to follow. But I did actually create an...
I once had a sneaky one like that happen in the zombie survival game I run. I was iffy about someone bringing in a marine character since I'd had bad...
In a message dated 4/10/05 9:48:18 PM Eastern Daylight Time, ... This guy who shall remain TK was playing a cyborg in a champions game. I am playing an alien...
... Ah, Marines. Don't get me started on 'em, reguarless of the sim genre. Maybe someone should create a sim for all the Marine players out there to join,...
I was used to seeing them in the Trek games and I guess I figured without phasers and quantum torpedos they couldn't get up to much, but yeesh was I wrong. ......
I'm tired of people not knowing the different between "Tense and Person." I had a player complaining that she was having difficutly following a thread because...
That's the first time I've ever heard of that problem, and first time I've heard of anyone having trouble following a storyline just because of tense. ... -- ...
I know how this is :| I joined a group and thought it would be a fun change of pace from the game I currently co-run. When I started, thinking I was doing a...

Nah, more like the first sign my luck's going to run out on that one. ... -- --I know there are no lifeguards in the gene pool, but damn, there ought to be at...
