Role Play Cafe: General Discussion and hang out about RP itself.

[Winter]

Haha this!

I hope we have a range of RPs to suit everyone. I know I'll try and join in if there's a beginners/casual Pokemon one. :D

I'm kinda surprised no one has replied to this. XD

I dunno about range, but RPs don't usually have a "skill" restriction or activity designation, unless it's like, WAR. Most of us who have been RPing a while here are pretty welcoming to beginners--we're not gonna bite your head off if you have smaller posts (actually most of us post text walls because we enjoy being wordy, not because it's required, and we don't expect the same of you) or accidentally do something wrong. So really, every RP could be a beginner's RP if a beginner decides to sign up and join it. As for a "casual" RP...posting speed is really determined by those in the RP. Not everyone makes ridiculously fast posts, and even when they do, they still have to wait for the next person to post, which may take longer. I've been in RPs where we kept it going for what seemed like forever, but it took weeks for almost every one of the four of us RPing to reply because we all had normal life stuff to do before we could get a full reply out. Also been in RPs where everyone else posted at normal speeds, and we had two speed-of-light posters who would have pages of stuff posted before anyone else got a chance...those people were kindly asked to slow down.

At this point, a lot of the RPers I know on PXR have lives to attend to. We can't just sit at the computer all day waiting for replies so we can scramble to write one down (which I will admit to doing back in middle school, lol), so you can expect most RPs to go at a decent to slower posting pace. So really, try looking at every RP as an opportunity, Sarah, if you like the plot, give signing up a try.
