PLAYER WANTS
What is your plotting philosophy?
I like having loose guidelines around my thread, so either a starting point (point A) or both point A and point B, where I want to end up. I usually leave what happens within these two points to chance, to create a more organic relationship. As I usually know what the end product of a thread is going to be, plot twists and surprises don't usually happen.
What types of plots are you interested in playing?
Anything not listed below. I especially enjoy meeting new characters and getting my characters to know them, whether it be through small talk, flirting or deep(ish) conversation. The slower paced the better in my books.
What types of plots are you not interested in playing?
Anything to do with sexual or abusive relationships is off limits, but I'm pretty open to anything else.
How often can you reply to any given thread?
I will reply to any thread for as long as I feel comfortable with it or as long as it goes. If a thread carries on for 50 posts, I will keep posting. It depends on the type of thread for how long my threads usually go on for. A training thread would go on for shorter than a social thread, for example.
What is the longest you're willing to wait for a reply to a thread?
As long as it takes for the person to reply. I'm not very patient, but I can try to be.
Are you open to RPing over instant messengers? If so, what's the best way to contact you and what times are you generally available?
Although I am definitely open for it, I haven't ever actually done it, but if you still want to give it a try, just contact me via the C-Box or Private Messaging. I'm always open for trying new things.
Are you open to post volleying?
I used to do this in another forum I was in, so this is fine. I may not stay online for very long, though, so post volleying might not last for a long time. I'm usually available everyday from 20:00 GMT to 00:00 GMT, but my posting quality may deteriorate by that time.
PLAYER LIMITS
What are you limits regarding powerplay/godmoding?
In a battle (sport or fight) plot or any other quick moving thread, having absolutely no powerplay would slow things down incredibly. I prefer if the person contacted me via the C-Box or Hammel PMs before any major godmoding e.g. something that would incapacitate my character, but I am happy with minor assumptions e.g. a pass in a sport or a punch in a fight.
What are your limits in regards to romantic situations?
I prefer to let a romance happen naturally, or with very loose guidelines at the very most. I don't mind what happens next, whether it be a love triangle or anything else like that. If something like that occurred organically then all the better. I would prefer if someone contacted me with plot ideas for romances, again via C-Box or Private Messaging. The only rule I really have is that it stays within the confounds of a Romance, although playful teasing and flirting is fine.
What are your limits in regards to sex (within the TOS)?
I don't have a lot of experience with role playing that kind of thing and I would much prefer to steer well clear of Sexual relationships. If completely necessary, then implying is absolutely fine, but anything more than that makes me feel slightly uncomfortable. As said above, I would rather stay in a Romantic plot.
What are your limits in regards to violent scenes (within the TOS)?
Violence is fine as long as it stays within my godmoding rules and both parties have plotted it carefully. I also don't have very much experience in Violent plots so you would have to bear with me if I am ever in one.
What are your limits in regards to abuse/rape in plots?
I try to steer clear of more sexually abusive themes and other kinds are met with caution. Anything like that would have to be plotted out carefully and always in the past. I would not like to role play as or with an abuser in any way shape or form, but memories of abusive parents are fine.
Anything else?
I'm not the most experienced of role players, so I'm not as comfortable with as many different types of threads. If you have any ideas for threads you could do a number of things: post in my plotter, in the description of all of my characters; send me a PM on Proboards; send me a PM or talk to me on the C-Box.
