De: An honest trade

[bjornwilde]

From saphyria :

One of the sometimes challenging aspects of RP is having characters whose knowledge-base is wildly different from that of the player. So your character has adopted a pet - you have to go look up what a pet-owner might expect from that species and breed at different stages of its development. Maybe your character is an expert at a craft, occupation, or sport with which you're not terribly familiar, or you want to make sure you portray a character from a specific time period and socio-economic status accurately.

What I'd like to know is: what sort of research has RP led you into? What things do you know now that you wouldn't have known, if you weren't playing in Milliways?

Notice of semi-hiatus, or: could Jack possibly suck more than he already does?

So if you've seen some of my back room posts, you'll know that for me, RPing takes quite a bit more energy these days than it used to.

Therefore, until the release of some new canon in late October, I'll be on semi-hiatus.

Pretty much what this boils down to is if we've got a thread or OOM ongoing or planned I'm still good for it and will do my best to finish them (but brace yourself for serious slowtimes), and I might tag into one or two EPs before November, but unless circumstances change dramatically I will rarely, if ever, EP one of my own pups before then.

Just thought you guys would wanna know.
