Forums » RP Discussion » Y'all Are Too Amazing!

Jeez. Reading the RP posts of some of the fantastic folks on this site has me feeling a bit inadequate lately! I keep seeing such wonderful depth and intricacies in the characters, such lovely little details that make them come alive, and it's making me feel like my characters are all much too flat and my posts too simplistic and bland.

My conclusion: I need to make time to RP with y'all more so I can get up to par!

Are you pulling my leg?

Silly Nova, I've felt the same way ever since I joined RPR. Everyone I have ever had the chance to RP with has been phenomenal, you included. And just like you feel right now, I feel the constant need to improve my posts, my characters and my posts just to keep up with how amazing everyone is on this site.

So no need to feel like you're alone or that you're the only one who feels like this. I think we all experience this from time to time.

I think we have all felt this way at one point or another. After all, even if you're a master of something, (let's say, sparkling and witty dialogue that reads like something a real person would say even in a fantastical world) it's likely that another person is a master of a slightly different skill (let's say, communicating by describing non-verbal gestures). There is ALWAYS something more to learn.

However,

This is the absolute right attitude!!! I love it! Practice makes perfect, and practicing with an example of the skillset you want to achieve right in front of you makes the practicing more fun and more effective.
