Message: <blockquote data-quote="Lace" data-source="post: 2559013">heheI can't remember how many times this has been viewed but I assure you, it's the first time I've read it.   And Ja, here I am posting.  I can tell you honestly, that I don't have a problem with people approaching my char, talking with them, or what have you.  I respond, and also people have ooc'd me with questions, I always oblige.  If I have missed it, I must have been Afk'd.  I'm not a scroller, and I'm the worst person when It even comes to checking descriptions. hehe  But that's what I'm going to suggest to the newcomer player, Rp'er.Rp to the environment friend.  I would say you're working a lost cause if your going to walk up to a Vampire (let's say), and smile and ask if they'd like to have a little chit chat over a pot of tea.  You know it a lot of cases, where said character is mysterious, wrapped over three thousand times and has a large cowl, (is a vampire) they may fake the instance, to appear to be yes, still mysterious, and not give anything such as balking to a bit of tea.Essentially, there's different ways to approach characters.  Can never get into specifics, I mean everyone is different.Say Jax for instance.  Approach with a bottle of lager, and no scissors in hand, you may get a response.Say Jardel for instance.  Approach with some gleaming well taken care of weaponry, appreciation for angsty and snide personalities, you may get a response.Say Lucianna for instance.  Approach with a cat, general zest for life, sensual interests at heart, you may get a response.Say Joshua for instance.  Approach with a big everything hehe. Big steed, big smile, big personality, you may get a response.Say Talus for instance.  Approach with general love for adventure, apples oooh and somewhat of an innocence, you may get a nod.Say Davon for instance.  Approach with a love of books, late night walks, you may get a response.Say Rajak for instance.  Approach with a love for Davon and of course appreciation for Raj, you may get a response.Say Marauder for instance.  Approach with something needed to build, definately not looks, you may get a response.Say Orchid for instance.  Approach with mirror in hand, same fascination with hair, and you may get a response.Say Dontella for instance.  Approach without a cure for said affliction of the two we are experiencing, you may get a response.Say Au'Dearah for instance.  Approach with cobbler, two forks, huge napkins in hands, you may get a response.Say Dave for instance.   Approach with a love of food also respect for privacy & mystery, you may get a response.I mean each player is different.   Each char is different.   You know it may *just* be a chat.   But some of these "chars"have been played by each player for years.   I'm not false in saying you can get attached to said character.  It'd be similiar to gaming D&D tabletop and  like having a favoured *lucky* piece of item.  At the beginning of every game, it has to be facing board specifically, exact same position each and every time.  New playa comes along, moves it, knocks it aside, while you watch in shock.   I know I'd be trying hard not to grunt and begrudge it, at every misfortunate happenstance that happened thereafter to my char because new playa came along.  Same thing goes with these online characters.  Sometimes a simple appreciation to what each char is doing, will illicit the response you want.  Watch, keep an eye on things, on the area, and RP to environment.  Simple questions to put at play. What interests you and what interests other characters?  Are they the same?I don't know, just a really long thought. heheheLace Letharia, aka B</blockquote>
