So I spend a lot of time organizing a RP. I type out a long introduction to the story, I type up pages of definitions, and I type up long intros for the two of my characters.

Then I post it on GAIA. Only after looking at the other RPs do I realize my mistake. I actually made something someone had to think about! I made something with a plot!

I started roleplaying on one of the thoughest roleplaying forum out there. If you didn't think something out, you would get flamed, or more frightening, you would get ignored. I believe someone won the "Worst GM," and the "Worst Thread" awards at some point, and compared to some of the stuff in Barton Town, he was an intellectual!

What bothers me the most I would have to say is the word: LITERATE. Anyone can be literate. Literate means able to read and write. I was a literate when I was five. I look around and see the word Literate. What the hell do they think it means? No chat speak? Using a sentence?

I say MY RP is intelligent.

Main Entry: in·tel·li·gent
1: having or indicating a high or satisfactory degree of intelligence and mental capacity.

I wish more people would be intelligent. Looking at that forum made me a little sad. That is seen as literate? Has writing fallen that far?

Now I know why many people believe that roleplaying is for retards. The retards ruined it.
