I've gotten a few bios in my day that had made me choke and wonder how on Earth the applicant thought that the bio would even be remotely acceptable...
For me, a "good" player is someone who: *Understands the ability to balance between "Develop at Start" and "Develop in Play" (even if they aren't familiar with...
At various times in my on-line roleplaying adventures, I've noticed that sometimes there's a game that is designated by its administration as an "adult" game...
WAR isn't an "adult" game as such - we'd be happy to take in a 12 or 13 year old who could otherwise fit in with our fairly intellectual playerbase - but we...
Mostly I label mine that as a head's up that nothing's going to be really candy coated and there's a chance there'll be content not one's cuppa. I've been in...
Mainly I (1) don't want kids in my games, (although Cthulhu knows why since my worst players barnone are theones in their 40's and older. and (2) I do like...
I think there are three things that warrant an "Adult" label for purposes of content. 1) The game is a straight up excuse for very graphic, very detailed, ...
So my game is relatively small. I might be adding a new player, whose character will be a double agent. (Assuming I can ever get her to create the character)...

I'd say it depends. What could be accomplished by keeping it secret, and what could be accomplished by the other players knowing, even if that knowledge is ...
Before, I would tell them because you know I don't like surprises when I'm writing. But... Now, maybe I wouldn't tell them. Just because I think no matter how ...
Are your players the type who like to focus on winning, or do they like to focus on writing a fun story? :o) I was playing in one game where the other players...
Hi! Look at how on the ball I'm not! This is, like, a week old? I'm not sure that I would tell the other players, honestly. Because it's like B. said, the...
Cres brought something up in her recent post that got me thinking. I'm sure we've covered this before in the archives, but I don't remember for sure and am...
Week old, that's not long. Any and all replies are timely, just so long as you reply. But you both raise a good point, you may unknowingly act differently if...
I think for me, this is one of my biggest issues. I do not think I torture my characters enough. I try to, but somehow it doesn't seem to work. Although I...
I fall half way. I like to give my character glaring flaws and torture them mercilessly, although I suppose I tend to play this up for comedy, which some...
A friend passed along the following a while back. While it's written for Halloween, I noticed it could be a good humor list for horror & fantasy sims. ...
I found an even more extensive list here. http://slashermania.tripod.com/html/guidebook.html Personally I like Rule #96. I was actually searching for the Rules...

I'm with you on moderation. A good story has a good mix of the "good" and the "bad". You know how the cheesy stories always point out that you can't have...
So I know I haven't posted on here..possibly ever. But I've been lurking for a while. Shannon and I were discussing possible plot hooks tonight. And we've ...
Larry, this is my official press-release blurb on Belligerent Mary: "...Just like all great warrior princesses, the Belligerent Mary Sue is tougher that anyone...
Personally, I'd like to see the press releases for all the Mary Sue types. Awesome! If it's alright with you, I'd like to use them on freeformrpg's, crediting...
I've once played a character that were the end of both extremes. I don't know if it would be a Mary Sue (But please, do tell us more about them! :D) because I...

The gist of the situation is this: Game with co-mods who all have different jobs. Enter the "bad player". The app approval mod approves something from the BP...
My first inclination? Unapprove the plagarized character and watch the BP like a hawk to make sure future characters are original. If the other mods absolutely...
I think the number one thing that they could have done is at the very least axe the plagerized character and make the player submit an original character ...
