Posting RP related questions in this forum (rather than the 'RP related Questions & Suggestions' section) may/will result in your thread being deleted without warning.

If you're in to RolePlaying it's an important asset in your RPing skills to be able to read what's in front of you so you know where to post.

When I first read this, I thought you said that their account would be terminated. I was about to ask if that was a bit much when I saw it was actually just the thread that would be deleted. Good thing I caught myself. But yeah, this makes much more sense.

Don't ever apply for an RP character. You've failed the "can I read" test already.

Ha Ha Ha Well, that would explain why my application has been pending approval for over a month now. Don't check it out or anything, heaven forbide.

I think people post RP related questions here because if you go to the forums page this is the only one that says "Questions and Suggestions." And the RP related help thread is buried somewhere in the RP section. New people don't know that though and they just see this topic and go "Oh, good, someone can help me here" and then they ask their RP related question in the general help thread.

Perhaps providing a quick link to the RP questions thread in the RP section somewhere on the forums page will help solve this issue ^w^ Forgive me if that doesn't make sense, I don't know the actual terms for everything

You see the RP Related Items subforum BEFORE the Start New Topic button. It's not that hard... You basically have to entirely ignore the subforum to post in the wrong section. The description even says, "Role Play Questions and Suggestions go here."

I think it is a mistake to assume that everyone actually reads. Especially subforums, which are often ignored.

Why do you think this topic has to exist in the first place?

I know. I just find it slightly humorous that this is a reoccurring problem in just about every forum, I've ever been on.
