I approve of this guide fervently and wish that everyone could read it before posting here.
I am an avid RPer, reader and story writer and nothing makes me more sad then seeing a post topics that says: war with yournation and open it to find it filled with grammar mistakes, uncapitalized sentences, and general sloppiness.
And I never like it when we have two relatively new nations with only 4 posts between them going through an RP which consisted of "Iz blow up your captial city and kills yous fleets."
And I have a question, is there someplace here in II which can help teach the newbies how to RP?(I think I saw it around here somewhere when I first signed up...) I know the real N00bs will ignore it and go right on spamming and one-lining this wonderful place to death. I'd be more than happy to try and teach a few people who care how to RP better.
