1. Stop being insular.
2. Stop being clique-y.
3. Stop thinking your character is you. Drop that ego aspect.
4. Stop dishonest lip service and gossip.
5. Stop plagiarizing or using "Wikipedia rp." Books, TV series, comics, amateur poetry sites, each other's posts...I've witnessed it all here.
6. Start cultivating lesser heard rp voices when you see them post. Be more supportive of more than just established, "popular" characters.
7. Start pushing community as something more than a dozen pages of replies to a DAZ signature that may or may not be sexy.
8. Less alts, more ideas.
9. Less focus on guilds, more on actual character.
10. Drop conventional rp, and stretch out. How many times can we thwart a kidnapping?
11. Minimize the Harelquin-romance IC posts. Ok, ok! This warrior-woman's armor was pierced by this unexpected man's love. This moody poet is in pain for the love he holds for a noblewoman. Fine. I realize this is an intergral part of rp for various reasons, but if you want new voices in this comm. vary your writing. Our boards look like an online dating service.


This should be on a plaque.
