Unless you have permission from the original creator, you'll get smacked with plagiarism. Even if the original creator no longer uses the site. You might be able to get away with making a similar RP, but no, just taking one without asking is a huge no-no.

If you're talking about a RP that you originally made, it generally depends on the circumstances. Mods will usually allow your RP a second chance if continuing to post in the original thread would be gravedigging at this point, but if it becomes clear that no one is interested in this game (i.e., the other threads also quickly die), you'll be asked to essentially stop spamming the forum with the same unwanted game. There have been other instances where the Mods granted a new thread, such as the old one having become too toxic and the players wanting a fresh start, but these are rather unique situations.

In essence, I would ask the Mods to review your specific circumstances.


So, if it is my own and I want to give it a second chance, I'm clear, but no third or fourth OOCs?


You can have as many IC or OOC threads you need if they're each hitting the 500 posts mark. I'm referring more to making additional threads in the event that the original thread goes dead (nobody posting in it for a long time).

What I'm saying is if I post an RP called, "Adventures with Gio," and it only gets a few posts if any at all, I'll probably be able to reboot it later. If I make "Adventures with Gio 2," and it also gets almost no posts, I might be able to make "Adventures with Gio 3," but if nobody posts in that either and it's becoming clear that nobody is really interested in playing my "Adventures with Gio" game, I might be asked to stop pursuing a lost cause. Does that make sense?

Gotcha, brief and unsuccessful RPs have two chances to catch on and maybe a third if they show potential.

More or less. I'd ask a Mod for an absolute answer though.

There's Pandora's Box, which is pretty welcoming. It's got a bit of all of that, with fantasy and Sci-fi characters. The concept itself involves adventuring through various worlds and universes, with the current story being in a fantasy world and the next already planned to be Sci-fi.

When not on a mission, there's also a central hub which is open for minor interactions.

I would also point to some Fallout or TES RP's, but that's my personal bias. I also don't really take part in any of those, so I don't know what to say for those.

Also, I understand the complaining bit, lol. I'm picky about RP.

It's cool! I'm the same way. :) "There's nothing here!" "What about this?" "But I don't want that!"

You (and everyone else) is welcome to check out my comedy RP, The Infinites: And Beyond (see links in my signature). Though it's a long running RP, we're in our 2nd arc and it's still somewhat early. Very light-hearted, some action and adventure, but with the lamest of the lame superheroes or villains.

We indeed are taking new apps. Any time. How you would join in midway is very easy. We have a running gag that any new characters who come in have been with the heroes or villains the entire time of the RP, just they were quiet the whole time and didn't say anything...

So as a vet of this forum for quite some time, and someone who has been in countless rps where the quality of one's post was judge in part by its length and depth. Am I the only one who is exausted of huge 1000+ posts and is drawn more to casual rps that only require 2-3 paragraphs a post? I think thats why I've gravitated in majority from II to P2TM. I infact am running an rp that specifically states in the rules that posts should not be more than a few paragraphs long.

What are your thoughts? Do you think it makes it more fun and more "roleplaying to have shorter posts? Do you think its less quality? How do you run your rps?

It depends, really. I think a healthy mix of RP types helps prevent burnout. I enjoy long RP posts when they have good content and don't come too thick and fast, but I have to dip in to Dice-RPs/casual RPs every so often just as a palate cleanser. Too much of one and you'll struggle to write articulately, too much of the other and you'll evolve in to a pompous windbag.
Quite the unofficial fellow. Former P2TM Mentor specializing in faction and nation RPs, as well as RPGs. Always happy to help.
