Re: RP skills
I saw your RPing and it's pretty good. But if you think you need more work, try to put more feeling and description in it. Instead of doing
'I climbed into bed'
you can do something like
'As the clock blinked to midnight, my eyes drooped and I was suddenly exausted. I flicked off the TV and tossed the remote on the counter. As I stumbled into my bed, I looked at the periwinkle silk sheets with violet rimming and smiled at the lilac sent of the sheets. Before long, I dozed off to sleep.'
It'll make it a bit more interesting for to person your Rping with and might even persuade more people to RP with you. If you can't think of anything else besides one line, try to add what you character feels, smells, sees, hears, and maybe tastes.
Hope I helped!!

Re: RP skills
Judging by some of your most recent posts, you could try harder. ^^ Like Cassie said, you can achieve this by fleshing the posts out with more emotion and description. I'mma try an example too, based on one of your posts - is that okay?
See, now that right there is a pretty good post, about average. ^^ You've got proper grammar, spelling, etc, and it's short and sweet. That's not really a bad thing, but if you want to try harder . . . well, think about describing where 'he' is (dude I know his name but I can't remember xD), his facial expression, his emotions, stuff like that. So if you have a really good sense of what he's going through right now, you could turn the post into something like this:
Obviously it's probably not going to end up exactly like that, since everyone has their own style, but do ya see what I'm trying to say? ^^ So, to improve, keep the good grammar/spelling/whatevs, and try to work more description and emotion in.
"Oh no.." he murmured, and lightly layed his head on hers. He could feel the heat. "Is it alright if I go fetch the medecine cat, for you?"

"Oh no," he murmured anxiously, gently resting his head on the top of hers. There was way too much heat emanating from her soft fur. His forehead creasing as he pulled back, he asked, "Is it all right if I go fetch the medicine cat, for you?" Very obviously, he was worried about her. She was going to be okay, right?

Re: RP skills
Well, that's a reasonable excuse. Sometimes you just gotta sit back and really take that effort . . . and if you think your posts are boring, don't be afraid to add some kind of mini-plot to the RP. ^^ I found that when I did that things started getting more fun and easy to describe, so maybe it'll work for you too.
Re: RP skills
Another thing, is.. there's this friend of mine..
1 minute after she replies to the RP, she PMs me;
"REPLY!!!!!"
I pressures me and makes me throw in short replies so I can just post them.

Re: RP skills
My advice is to tell her to stop sending those kind of PMs.
Works every time.

Re: RP skills
Yeah, don't let anyone else pressure you into it. ^^ If you do that, you're just gonna end up getting sick of RPing, so if it takes you a while to reply it's all the more worth it for everyone.

[[Look who's talking Izzie. I hate to admit it in front of Shadow.. but those PMs come from you. My inbox overflows of them. I can hardly find any of WCL's PMs anymore. *sigh*]]
