You right on the money with that one. Maybe I should read more books to learn how to describe better

Just say your name, your race, your class, your profession, your devil fruit as descriptors

@Roogy let's get it I stayed up an extra half hour so I could finish that one

Mind i assume

ah yes, that makes sense lol

What would you guys consider to be the hardest thing to RP? For me it's description. A lot of times you gotta go the extra mile to get a great description score. Gotta keep it fresh, original, and flavorful. Also, you gotta try to not be redundant as to not make it boring. It's kinda tiring sometimes mentally, to keep up all that good description, to be consistent.

I have to stop to think of good word choice often. Which is rough. BUT it's extremely important when trying to convey the right expression, art and message people go to school and practice for years and year to be able to express themself truly with music or art and I don't see writing as any less different. The more "notes" (words) you know the more freely you can express yourself :catainu:

I see great things in that one

Ye he a good 'in

People have a hard time not saying their name over and over in narration... like xatch did this xatch toght that, blocking then striking xatch blank... i try my best to describe myself 4-5 ways... the pirate did this, barebones thought that, string from his back foot the vice captain.... the big skeleton blank...

Just say your name, your race, your class, your profession, your devil fruit as descriptors

Awesome advice

I consider that one of my biggest issues. All the time I write Kilij did that, Kilin did this, Kilij was.... I known for some time that I use the name way too much and even though I read a lot of different stories all the time. Whenever I write, I have a hard time not doing it.

well you have Kiliji, The pirate, the blank pirate, the blacksmith, the swordsman, the mink, saber tooth, striped warrior... need more

I change to those from time to time. But I still overwhelmingly use his name.

 

[SkeletonsOfThePast]

you only need to mix up 4-5 too make it less noticable

I have yet to try this but wanted to give a Point of View / Thought process of what i would like my character to do as i tried this back in Alabasta but haven't since.

Or get my character to go step by step of what i would do and what i think i want to do, so you can get a quick analytical perspective.

But saying this and when you actually RP-ing are two different stuff altogether

If you mean having the character stop to analyze the situation. I kinda do that a lot. For example my current BG with God_Usopun, in which I have my character make a plan every other post. That said I rarely ever follow those plans, since things rarely develop how I foresee them.

Well I'm referring to mainly Planning / Analysis = Executuon

And would want to explain the mindset behind it

With the DPR there was absolutely no way Doc Q could have survived with his Durability, even CoO + reaction speed he should have never be possible to survive so i decided to kill Doc Q (edited my post in the thread)

No one is biting anyone’s head off.
Somehow you and gm’s decided not not pay attention to how the rules of combat mexhanics have been painstakingly set up to work—I could understand splitting hairs but we are talking a 4 and 8 tier difference that was completely ignored.

It’s all good, just please pay better attention next time.

I can’t imagine @Larsi or @Ranger or even you would be treating this any different if you were in my situation. Only difference is I guess that if I were in your position I just would have said “oh shit my bad let me go back and fix my post” the first time?

I had misunderstandings that I wanted to clarify and regarding not editing, I wanted to leave the post as-is, but given that Gintoki has edited his post, I will edit mine. Sorry for all the trouble.

Or you're just worse than a noob
