I always get an atmosphere of hell in every RP of yours, and your gang's RPs.
Why not have more variety in your RPs? Too boring? Die off too quickly?
GG is aiming for something like Harry Potter or something. I don't see any variety in Harry Potter other than changing plot lines. That pretty much sums up what GG is doing.
Sol has tried a variety of RPs, both here and outside of these forums. The latest one before Crimson Acad died because people thought it was 'too balanced'. Utter bull of a reason if you ask me. But yeah, they tend to die too quickly. People aren't that open to new ideas around here.
krazaz, his rp's didn't strike me as something interesting, but as far as I know that was fairly unique in its own right, since there were none other like it during that time.
Concerning Crimson Acad itself, that was Sol's attempt at an 'easy' RP that was still halfway decent. Good effort was made, but utterly wasted in the end. Back to the drawing board for that.
Concerning THM, I'm just in there for the lulz. What happens in our clique doesn't really concern you past that.
HMA is a school.
Derika is a continent.
This seems to me to be a significant difference.
Not if the content is largely the same.
Granted I'm just judging your RP on face value, but in this forum a shiny OP, a nice story, and low requirements are pretty attractive sight to most people.

Sometimes I wonder if it's all too easy.
Lying, cheating, stealing your way to victory.
Though just how far would you fall for a dream?

I admit, the OP needs work, and quite a bit of it. But in my defense, I inherited the current OP from the previous thread and I haven't had the heart to change it. (Only add onto it to make it current.) (Derika is like the 5th iteration of The Gifted, it's history is deeper than one would think.)
However, the story-line has no holes and the requirements aren't bad in my opinion. Instead of devoting 8+ hours on formatting thousands of words onto individual wikia pages, how about I promise you that the RP itself is worth joining?

I've checked. I don't blindly judge just like that.
By checked I mean I've jumped to the most recent page, and lo and behold, conversation upon conversation.
Also chinese characters. What.
XD
Okay, you have come upon our most eccentric RPer, Ryik7.
He recently made a Chinese character, as you saw. He has also taken the pains to translate his posts to/from English, Mandarin, and Pinyin.
Currently, nearly all characters are waiting for the Tournament to begin, so not much action will be happening until Wednesday.
*Shrug*

Finally, another Asian RPer.
Or at least someone who knows Chinese.
Is it me, or is it extremely disturbing at how krazaz and me now have something in common? As in, RPing as some slime? It's gotta be a one-time event.

I'm still not even sure if anybody understands that THM actually has a plot.
I dropped out of Derika because it was waaaay too fast for my internet access. Which is still about 4 days a week. Sometimes more, it depends.
I've said it before and I'll say it again. Derika is as crazy, if not crazier than HMA. At least in part because of Ryik. You can deny it all you like, but I would like to remind you of the Kitten/Zombie/Alien/Gifted war. In which my post got ignored. Until twenty pages later when it was already entirely irrelevant.
I generally stick to the same universe, because that's what I enjoy. I have some other things floating around that I might pull out once THM gets started up.
EDIT: What dimensional flux? Portals and shaz, sure, but I don't remember a dimensional flux.
SIDENOTE: I don't remember what I did Friday either.
And The infractions last page were hysterical. Be off with you.
I only used flux because "interdimensional crossroads" is rather long to type
I'm currently working on the rebirth of my most successful RP, Avion Archipelago, check out the interest check in the previous page, I'll give a progress note soon, almost finished with the Paradine moveset
Arguments happen, they just do, you can't stop it, no matter how much power you have, even if it takes years to settle, when it does, everyone is stronger for it. Rivalries can be made into friendships if you let them.
Some ideas are meant to be made into reality, but most need to be burned at the stake.
Hating the things you love
Oh, Sketch. You're still on here? If so, the Runner arc ended some time ago. You can finally return to the bar, if you want.
Along with anyone who wants to join. We occasionally have story arcs and some of us, mainly me, go a little overboard with a dirty mind. Just saying. If you don't want to join, that's fine, too.
Yeah, but I can't RP due to not enough time to make detailed posts

Derika tends to move in bursts of activity. It may have been fast before, but it's slowed considerably now.
The Kitten, Alien, Zombie, Gifted war wasn't even all that bad. Kittens went feral, and that could happen anytime. Zombie's invaded en masse, which was unfortunate but difficult to prevent. The Alien attack simply capitalized on the zombie attack. And what choice did the Gifted have but to fight back?
It all worked out in the end anyways, the zombies were hunted down, the aliens left, and the cats calmed down. and characters were a little busy with the war to answer
I want to play a *medieval themed RP because I have a good character for that that would only work in that setting. Plus, most of these ones I've seen as a newer member are future/apocalypse based. Just for anyone wanting to know where to get a single player.

Its Medieval not mid evil.
DEAR MATTIE: Welcome to the reality of RP's. You should have seen HMA in prime time. Page upon page of posts. Every single day.
That's not my point. My point was it was insane. Also, if I remember correctly it was all caused by one of Ryik's characters, not the barely plausible things you mentioned.

Those were the days of terrible frustration. I swear, I quit far too many quality RP's simply because of its speed. RPing kept me late up til the wee hours in the morning during that time.

Advertising is against the rules. Stop trying to break them, because inviting people to another website is, guess what, advertising and therefore, not allowed.
This thread is a General Roleplaying Discussion Thread for the MinecraftForums, not a "come here and advertise your website anytime you want" thread.
We're keeping it under heavy watch and from now on, any offenders will be infracted with suspensions.
I shouldn't even be posting this here, but considering what has happened with the original thread and what's happening here now, I hope this explains what's the real purpose of this place.
If you have any doubts, please do not quote this post or the thread will be derailed again. Feel free to send me a message, I'll reply as soon as possible.

Welp, better get a move on before we get ourselves pierced by spears and countless earthen spikes.
Concerning those who are staying here, I hope that you enjoy your time in the crumbling ruins that is the MCF Roleplaying section.
As I said before the page got nuked, it is the nature of kingdoms to rise and fall, so maybe sooner or later(I'm betting heavily on the latter), we shall see some good come out of the ashes here.
Make do with what relics have been left behind(The Workshop is a great place to visit) and we can one day achieve what has been done by our predecessors.
TL;DR: Cut the drama and get to work. Hope for the best that people improve in quality over time.

I'm pretty sure that if i cut off your head it wouldn't grow back. There's like, what, eight of you?
You can't even respawn, bro.
