Sometimes I look back at my old pokemon fanfic. The rhetoric is atrocious to say the least. It actually hurts to read it.

This, this, a good helping of this, a pinch of this, a glob of this, and to top it off, a smidgen of this.
Also, Nerrone's Rangers, first IC thread, page 5, first six posts. That was probably my #1 best experience on this forum.

Oh yes, the pizza scene. Honestly, that thing needs to be transcribed in flaming gold ink onto a roll of unicorn parchment by a professional calligrapher several times, displayed in the most esteemed museums, universities, libraries and churches, and a CD version has to be made with Morgan Freeman narrating it.

Gelo I hope you understand what you have just done
You single-handedly destroyed a crowning moment in GAC history just because you wanted to post a They Might Be Giants video.

Gelo, this is why we can't have nice things.
Anyways, tumblr is down, so I'll just hang out here.

If I didn't make another post, who would? Everybody would want to just keep this moment preserved forever and we would never get anything done. If anything, you should be proud that you got a screenshot.

That might be true, but the breaking post could've been something more important than Music videos, such as an important political problem, an idea to improve the forum community, or any news regarding Random Access Memories...

If you have a problem with TMBG, you can go home
I bet you didn't even watch the video
(this one is even better, by the way)
Also, I have to get hyped up about TMBG because I might be going to a concert next saturday. They're playing in Baltimore and I happen to live really close by.

If you make an RP on this forum, I can pretty much guarantee that you won't get people to participate, unless it's an amazingly unique and awesome idea the likes of which has never been seen before. If that's the case, it's still probably better suited for another, RP-centered forum.

I once considered the idea of running something along the lines of an 'episodic' RP; meaning it'd last only, say, a couple of weeks and then start fresh — perhaps not abandoning the previous game's world and characters completely, but moving away enough to keep things interesting and ensure players' coming and going didn't have a serious impact.
Of course, there'd have to be a serious obligation to post regularly to keep things confined to a set time period — perhaps even assembling co-posts using a chatbox for fight-scenes to make sure they didn't drag on for weeks, as they are otherwise wont to do.

Interesting, but could you go into a little more depth? Like at the end of the first "episode" would there be a resolution for that?
Wait I get it, like mini plots that would last a certain time period, lets say for a week or so? Yeah that kind of makes sense but seems like some fine tuning would be needed for it to work.
I like the idea, I might use this in the new RP of mine.

I've never actually participated in an RP before, but I've entertained the notion a few times
However, I will only join an RP with some aspect that makes it unique. I don't want to do any boring old RP. I want to be part of something new and exciting.

A good rp centred forum that you could use is the RPA, as I have mentioned before. http://role-player.net/forum/forum.php I'm on there too, so if you're interested, look me up.
