Double post so people will actually see this.

I've been getting a couple of profiles with barely any backstory at all. Not to mention they're basic and boring at that. If people post short backstories, it means they'll probably make short posts as well, which are uninteresting to read. I'm not really sure what to do about them, other than request longer backstory as a way to try to get them used to making long posts.

I'm thinking I'll just keep rejecting them, cuz I don't know what else to do, but if someone has any ideas about it, please let me know.

you could give them one mire chance to fix it and if they dont do it right then they are probably not very creative and would be more trouble than there worth i will not post here again because i dont know if its for rp players only

Hey darkstar, can we have a new rule? Proper punctuation and grammar has robe applied on the RP?
Little mistakes here and there are fine but not using any punctuation is a no no?

Well, I'll give people multiple chances, it's just that I want people to make their characters all the more 'real'. What I don't want is underdeveloped characters wandering around without a set objective or goal, or at least some way to react to other players. They've got to have personality.

So basically, you don't have a set number of tries, send as many skeletons to me as you want. Because once you get what I'm after, it's pretty easy to understand it.

I'm a little confused as to what you're asking. If I'm understanding this correctly, you want it to be a rule for people to use proper punctuation in their profiles?

[Desbear]

Yes, I want to be able to read profiles and posts without having to decode it or use google translate.

[Mr. Fox]

Just how many moves are we allowed to know?

Originally, I said 5 for trainer-owned pokemon, and 6 for player pokemon, but I'm thinking about revoking it and saying you can use your entire move pool, according to your pokemon's experience.

The more I look at my RP, the more it looks like Random Pokemon RP.

I think that might be a good thing to do. I guess I'll add that to the rules now.

Double post so people actually see this. Geez, I've been doing a lot of this lately.

Tepig, the thread title changes to show the time of day in the RP. You can't say he had dinner, went to bed and slept the night, then woke up the next morning if it's been noon in Kanto the entire time.

Also Cotex, I'm trying to find a way for my character to get over to Orre, partially because I don't want you to feel separated from everyone else, but also because I want to try to explore regions other than the traditional kind.

[Tickles]

Easiest way would be a cruise out there, like a vacation. Orre does have that harbor city that basically connects it to all the other regions.

[Mr. Fox]

Just noticed I neglected to mention it. The person who walked in was your mom, she got hit upside the head by Zoroark...

[Darkstar64]

Well, that's a problem...

There wasn't any kind of post saying what happened, so I assumed the obscurity was intended.

But the other thing was the mom was a character that could only be controlled by me, plus she was watching the tournament, so she wouldn't have left just before her son's match.

[Mr. Fox]

now I facepalm myself...

ok, forget I ever said anything, I guess I missed that post...

Don't mind me, I am going to go kill myself.

[Darkstar64]

I never posted it, I figured it was assumed.

If you want, you can change it to a cop or something.

I'm at a loss, because I know our rule was 1-strike-left, and I don't know how to fix things.

After thinking for 5 minutes: Actually, I have a good idea, but it'll be a surprise even to you.

[Mr. Fox]

well I am in jail, its up to you Dark.

[Darkstar64]

I'll just wait for time to move on.

Poll reset, vote for whether or not you want it to move on or not at the moment.
