I'm getting really tired of how difficult it seems to be to actually RP anywhere. I tried the Islands of Ecestrim RP on the board because I didn't think I was ready for the Gaeran setting just yet, and now no one posts ever. It's a struggle just to get RPers attention, and I have to be the heinous bitch who keeps everyone on task.
Now, this RP isn't working either. I was really looking forward to playing Holly this way, and having Brian be able to play Xevan without playing ten other characters/co-GM at the same time. It was cool. And it doesn't work either.

I just don't know what the point is. I find a hobby I can enjoy on basically every level (I've never done so much artwork before, for example), and it doesn't work. I know it's no one's fault, but I resent it a little.

Did Kiduf disappear, or is he just not harrassing the RPers to post? It might not hurt to ask the RPers what's up over OOC means. It's happened before that RPs come to a point where everyone else is waiting on 'someone else' to do something specific to take the RP into a certain direction. I seem to vaguely recall Kiduf mentioning something to the effect of his GMing being rather loose, i.e. giving a lot of control to his RPers, and some of our RPers aren't used to that or aren't comfortable 'hijacking' the plot (dunno who all's in the RP).

The board RP I'm in is moving along alright, but it's still relatively new (began in February). Plus, Pervy's the GM, and is good at selecting/harrassing/"motivating" his RPers.

Well. I'm GMing a chat RP. We'll see if that solves the problem.

Oho! Neatos. :o
