RP Forum - out of control
Look at the work that was put into the first few posts on this thread:
http://pirate.planetarion.com/showthread.php?t=187160
I mean, I don't even know what to say, how do they have time, what when I mean.... I'm just stunned by how long that must have taken and all for a role playing thread.
It's ridiculous.

Re: RP Forum - out of control
Oh my goodness!
Maybe it's nicked from some other well known role playing type game?
Seriously, I am quite stunned by the detail to which Lady Hawk has gone to - how is anyone supposed to remember all that shit for a start?

Re: RP Forum - out of control
Their DM is said to be a fantasy serie scriptwriter for series/stories, I know one particular poster on there, actually he's my best friend. He puts in quite a lot of time to write such posts.

If you include posts made before the forums were wiped it's probably about 200k posts. The amount of man hours of the government's time wasted

Re: RP Forum - out of control
I'm probably more stunned that Ladyhawke chose Andromeda as the theme for this particular universe then went on to include technology and races from every damned sci-fi known to man.. except Andromeda

Re: RP Forum - out of control
I liked that show. Mainly because it had a race named Nietzcheans in it who were downright assholes to a man.

Re: RP Forum - out of control
I thought it was fudge? I'm rather partial to a bit of retroactive karmulian bashing though.

Re: RP Forum - out of control
Honestly, I think they could spend all that effort making money writing, instead of writing in PA's RP forum. They must really hold RP dear to put such effort into it.

Re: RP Forum - out of control
Well, after giving all 3 pages a read...I can honsetly say, that if I didn't have other things to do with my spare time, I would give it a go. On any note, its sheer volume of interest beaches most everything here in GD....
...But I love GD. No dedication required.

RP is far more work than GD as a whole realises, hence why I am here and not there now.

Re: RP Forum - out of control
It is quite tragic though.
I sometimes read RP threads, when I'm absurdly bored and can't move my fat sluglike body away from the computer. Some are quite entertaining, and make good stories.
Nearly all of them end up disappearing within a month or so though, as noone can be bothered to post.
They put all that effort in, for nothing
PS LadyHawke just SCREAMS autism
