Llama sat down in a simple chair, surveying the few remaining 'key' RP'ers, at this time he was wearing nothing but his camping backpack, his white fur going from his head down to his neck and the brown fur, taking up the rest of the body, gleaming from the reflection of a nearby light source. Not many were left since they had all started to retreat to other things happening in their lives. This saddened him slightly but still, he decided that he would attempt to brighten the spirits and make the best of things.

"Greetings, mighty kingdom of Role-Play! As many of you know I am Llama, a forumer that has stuck around for quite the while now. I decided that I should try to bring light to this current situation and even possibly show this to future friends a few years from now if I still happen to be around, which I plan to." All was quiet so Llama decided to go on. "The leavings of this past week has been plenty, enough to basically wipe out all of the RP'ers that are practically icons around here. Even though this has been happening I am certain that we will move on and possibly even start becoming more advanced in our little community."

"As all of these leavings have been occurring a question suddenly popped into my head last night.. who will be the next 'professional' RP'ers? Who will be the one that all look up to and is known by just about everyone? Who will be the extremely skilled writers in which everyone else always waits patiently (at times) for their threads? Who will be the one that people hang around for laughs, the other which is barely seen but has numerous fans, and the simple RP'ers? Honestly, I don't think I know an answer to a single one of these questions. What I do know is that time will pass along with other veteran RP'ers and new ones will slowly start to file in, blooming into skilled, experienced ones." Llama sighed slightly but still decided to continue, "I guess what I'm trying to say is that people, including us, move on. Sure, they would still be remembered by friends and forgotten by a few but the thing is that those who all ready left had not simply laid down their goodbyes but also experiences of fun, friendship, and a few good threads."

"There is also another thing that I need to bring to attention.. we NEED to band together. We cannot simply waste time on petty arguments, offensive actions, and 'trollage' of threads. It gives you nothing but a bittersweet victory, one that only lasts momentarily and leads to future regrets due to broken relations, hurting of others, and at times the 'scare' of a new RP'er that could of easily been turned into an experienced one. You may not agree with what I say, or even give two cents about what I have to say but I seriously think that this is all necessary if we really want to get to that haven of a community that be all crave."

"I hope you all would actually take time to listen and actually think about what was just said.." With that, Llama went quiet, sitting back down on his simple seat and thinking to himself if this could actually be achieved.

Slowly claps then leaves the room.

(But I'm not an experienced or decent RPer.)

(Should have changed that to all RP'ers in the 'room'.
Very sorry.)

I nodded thoughtfully. "I agree with this. There has been so much disagreement and virtually no one tries to help those new roleplayers who don't have grammar or spelling or original ideas. I think they are used to being able to use that sort of speech as they play roleplay games instead of the forum and they have not learned that it is not well-tolerated. Really, we're all too uptight and should loosen up a bit. Don't flame the threads that aren't good, give them advice so they can do better next time. At this rate all of the good roleplayers will leave, as many already have, and less experienced members, or members who don't bother with grammar, spelling, or even plot, will dominate more than they already have."

Wicked, hidden in a darker area of the room, silently contemplates every word of this speech, showing no signs of agreement or even disagreement with what has been said.

Gigi sighed slowly in thought. He was right. Gigi perked up my head and smiled, "Agreed" Gigi heard as a girl spoke and nodded agreeing to what she just explained as well.

Poke looked from his chair, nicely situated in the back of the dark room. He listened throughout the speech, coughing often. He slowly clapped, as he was in his coughing fit. He continuously clapped, and said "Ja."

AbCatchem nodded slowly.
"To be honest, I've been considering switching my 'main' RP site, mostly out of disgust. You bring up some good points, which bring me back to a memory from around Christmas time. RP chose to make a thread where they taught newer RPers the basics. Most learn from experience, but should we attempt something along those lines?" She stroked her ink bottle as she spoke.

I was sitting in the back, and said, 'Didn't hear all of those comments... BUT YES! WE MUST MAKE RP BETTER!' Man, that 'AbCatchem' loved ink...

"This."

NOTICE: This is not Sauron, this abomination is known as the Mouth of Sauron. It is his title because he represents his Lord Sauron. The Mouth of Sauron is also known as the Lieutenant of Barad-dûr who belonged to the race of the Black Númenóreans.

A powerful motor, brimming with lightning-like strands of electricity cracked and thundered as I laughed maniacally, and I rose from the ground on a motorized pedestal. "Sorry, I picked that trick up from Ouran. Cool eh? Even I'm not sure how I get the motor around. But I've been preaching this for a while, but nobody listens to me because people are too busy leaving to listen to anybody. But here's the thing, I was here in 08, and you know what it was like? The RPs were about the same quality they were now. The only difference is that we went through the golden age of 2010. Things have died, yes, but I believe that there's a cycle of life going on here. We may be dying now, but the board will be reborn in a few years, the same way we entered the golden age a few years ago."

Werter flipped the table out through the glass roof of the room; he could have easily flipped it out the wall too, considering that it was a glass building. He pulled a exceptionally large pad out of his hat, then put it onto the table frame that he had also conveniently pulled out of his hat.

"I've an idea," he said, pulling out charcoal to pass around. He draws out a simple RP, just a basic, clear RP; he leaned back in his seat and said, "Just make an RP like this. However, instead of learning to the boring way -which is making a thread that they'd just read- we teach them the ways of RP through experience."

"For example, if they RP like,'*i enter the room* hi' we walk up to them within the RP and tell them how to RP. Since it's in an RP, we can give a direct example that shows exactly what we're showing them."

I thought about what Werter said. "That actually sounds like a fairly good idea. Perhaps we should at least try, and see if it gains any popularity." I leaned back in the chair I was sitting in.

Boom.

A crash is heard, followed by an alarm and explosion. "Sorry, the table hit someone's car...."

Vlad slowly feels his beard, and nods.
