| You have a really good RP and lots of people are active, but then one person goes inactive and it nearly kills the entire RP? |

| Pick, I made this in direct response to Fort in Apple Valley, in case the scenario seems familiar and you can't place a finger (Well, can't place a wing) on where it seems familiar from. |

| I was the one who almost killed the RP... My internet died for a couple of weeks in 2013 and Pokemon World almost died. |

An intelligent GM takes control of said character and writes them into situational stasis until they return so the RP will proceed.
An unintelligent GM whines and complains rather than fixes the issue. |

Lol, no. You can't just take control of a character played by someone else and expect A) the story not to suddenly feel awkward and B) there to be a lack of drama when/if the RPer comes back.
It's smarter to try to contact the RPer and see what's going on. If they never contact you back, remove the character from the story somehow and move on. |

Fort seemed really, really weird.
As in, he tried getting into every female characters pants. |

| Soard, an intelligent GM would under no circumstances take control of another person's character... Seriously, are you that daft? |

| I agree with Bota and Tim, it doesn't seem right to take control of someone's character without asking them what's wrong. |

| Probably, with someone who is THIS of an idiot, thinks himself as an admin. If I encounter that person, sorry, you came to the wrong neighborhood. |

You're all amateurs. On RPN it's considered a courtesy to do this and the people are usually happy for not meeting responsible of the RPs death. And it's not like you kill them off idiots, you simply write them out of current interaction and PM them such so that the RP can continue.
You people are so ass backwards... |

"You're all amateurs."
Says the eighteen-year-old, likely homeless, highschool student who spends his time trolling a website designed for kids to a bunch of fifteen-and-unders who, according to Birm's website, have the writing quality of postgraduate university students. "On RPN it's considered a courtesy to do this"
RPN also forces a minimum of 3 posts, I honestly don't think that RPN should set the bar for what qualifies as good RPing.
"and the people are usually happy for not meeting responsible of the RPs death."
Uhh... What?
"And it's not like you kill them off idiots, you simply write them out of current interaction and PM them such so that the RP can continue. "
Yes, that works if they're not there, in which case I can just continue on without them. But mid-conversation? Mid-fight? Mid-any-other-kind-of-interaction?
"You people are so ass backwards..."
I don't think you're referring to us, Soard... |

| Technically none of us get paid to do RP, so we're all amateurs. |

are we sure he was not an embodiment of one of my personalities, or perhaps one of another's?
