Sometimes, role playing can be, well, difficult. This is a place to help those in need of help. A lot of people don't know how to roleplay, so don't feel bad if you have questions.
Do's and Don'ts
DON'T forget punctuation! But remember not to use, like 17 exclamation points. Add commas, quotes, periods, question marks, ect. where needed.
DO use spell check. It is there for a reason! If something like a charm or another Hogwarts thing comes up, ignore it, but if it's something like: walking and you spell it woking, look at the suggestions.
DON'T use chatspeak in roleplay example: Ella wlked 2 clss. Bob wz ther. / Ella walked to class, Bob was there.
DO use Capitalization in the right spot! example: ella walked to class. bob was there/ Ella walked to class. Bob was there.
DON'T forget about homophones. Some examples:
To, Two, Too
Break, Brake
Heel, Heal, He'll
Hoarse Horse
week, weak
DO be descriptive. It makes it much easier to have a fun roleplay when there is description. Example:
The butterfly flew by Joe. He ran away.
The beautiful orange butterfly flew near Joe. He ran screaming in terror toward the castle.
DO mix it up a bit! Speak in a random color that hasn’t already been used by a ton people, or use little font, because that encourages wanting the post to look longer (see suggestion 6)
DON’T repeat what you character is thinking out loud. Example: ‘today is a sad day’ Ella thought. “I feel sad today,” She said to Aurora.
ANYWAY, ALL IN ALL, AURORA AND I WISH TO MAKE ROLEPLAYING SIMPLE, FUN, AND LESS OBNOXIOUS! (is written by Ella while on the phone talking about what to write with Aurora)
