RPG Guide
What is an RPG?
An RPG is a "Role-playing game". For a quick summary, you act as a human/animal/Anthro/ect. during these games. Usally, they are Cannons, or RPGs based on something already created, such as Harry Potter or Pokemon. But there are Origionals, that have nothing to do with real-life books, ect. They are usally about exotic kinds of animals, or an idea based on something weird, such as Leopard or orcas. You usally act as one(Or more) characters(Reffered to as "Charries" for now on), that live in a world already set, like perhaps a jungle for your forest cat. Roleplaying can occure with any thing, basicly, as long as it has some kind of living way. There can even be Leaf or Coral RPGs, as a leaf is a growing part of a tree, have Photosynithis, and are alive until they die of lack of nutrients or water. Same thing with coral. Coral is a living rock that lives in warm water, uses a source to catch food like algea, and can survive in crowded reefs. Those are just some exaples.
How do you RP?
You can RP by simply spelling out the name of your Charrie and putting it in a setting, making details each post. The point of RPing is to learn how to type, write, expand your imagaination, and have fun at the same time. So as long as you don't GM or PP, people will respect you. You only RP the charries that are yours, and if you are Staff, NPC, or None-playable Charries.
Remeber, don't stuff all your ideas in one post; Let someone else post, and you can expand your RPing. If your having trouble of what to post, message the person that wrote the post before you, and ask them what you could write in reply to their post. Watch out though, since all RPGs don't go the same. Be sure to read the rules before you join ANY PG.
A simple RPG thread goes like this:
(*You, -Friend)

ect.
Why do you RP?
People like me RP to release stress and relax, think more during summer, and expand our knowledge in complcated situations, aswell as having fun. Not all RPGs are the tough, hard ones, which everyone uses the word "Mug" instead of "Jaw" or "Maw". Some are easy, and you only have to write a scentance or two to pass as an RPGer. You can then climb ranks.
I suggest you start out easy, and climb to the top. But if you were like me, and jumped right to the midiums, be sure to have a large vocabulary and understanding of the language you are RPing in. Usally they do this to explain tough situations!
What means what?
OOC- Out of Character/Charrie
Charrie: Character
BIC: Back in Charrie/Character
NPC: None-Playable Character
GM: God Modding (Not good!!)
PP: Powerplaying (Not good!!)
Anthro: Human-like Animal
Originals: Original Idea RPGs
Cannon: An RPG based on anothers' idea
