Re: Do you ever have long absences?
I do that but I never feel weird about it. I mean, there are only one or two forums where I'm an integral member that I would feel bad leaving. Fortunately I don't make commitments I'm not going to follow through on. I know what you mean about being like "Oh hai thar I'm back and stuff so like yeah". There is one forum I have a little story about. I joined youngwritersonline.net when I was in 8th grade and got along pretty well with everyone. Probably because I've had super duper grammar since forever. Anywho, I became a pretty well known member, not a veteran but I had 1100 posts or so. But when school began to kill me and my ADD/anxiety got in the way of me writing I would never contribute anything serious. I started to feel guilty and disappeared for a while (not to mention my mom got drunk one time and threw my computer in the pool because I was using it in my room WHILE I WAS HOME ALONE). Rage. Um, back to what I was saying, I disappeared for a few months. I had made a lot of good friends there but I didn't think it was appropriate I just spam the forum when I didn't write. I came back briefly but since I didn't contribute it was a no go. Only recently did I rejoin. I have a new account but I was pretty open with "Hey I'm really so-and-so". I partly got a new account because I wanted to start fresh and partly because I no longer have access to that email . It makes me a little sad inside since so much has changed and we were a really close knit group but I'm glad I came back.
The only other forum is Fantasia and I own that shit.

if the character isn't dead yet, dissapearing would mess up the storyline.Robert Kirkland wrote:Yeah, unless you're leaving for story purposes (character dies/character disappears... though I am not exactly sure how RP forums work so it might be different.. you could lurk or create other characters)Elemental-Butterfly wrote:its even worse to leave roleplay forums.

Re: Do you ever have long absences?
But what if a character disappears for storyline purposes? I guess you could lurk then.. But as I said before, I have not much experience with RP forums so I might be wrong.Elemental-Butterfly wrote:if the character isn't dead yet, dissapearing would mess up the storyline.Robert Kirkland wrote:Yeah, unless you're leaving for story purposes (character dies/character disappears... though I am not exactly sure how RP forums work so it might be different.. you could lurk or create other characters)Elemental-Butterfly wrote:its even worse to leave roleplay forums.

Re: Do you ever have long absences?
You guys should swap IM names with each other so you can chat to your hearts' content. XD There's nothing wrong with following a natural thread of discussion, but if it's turning into a casual chat, it's best to migrate to PMs or instant messengers.

Re: Do you ever have long absences?
I usually get a lot of projects I drop and though I'm getting better at it it still happens. That and I try to keep busy all of the time really. Most of the time I leave for a bit due to social or mental issues. I usually come back though.
