You and your companion Zaran are in a forest there are rumors of hidden bandits that you are paid to eliminate,after a brief walk you encounter a giant rat, what do you do

This confuses me and is very informal. I'm all for freedom of RPing but you guys lack grammar, courtesy, formality and the standard textual background and recruiting peroids. I know I'm one of 'those' people, but... Yeah.

Addendum Primary - I know what flank means, I have a very expansive vocabulary.
Addendum Secundus - Spellchecker exists, it's not a myth.
Addendum Tertiary - RPs are usually written like books, Aka He said She said she went he did they sighed etc, etc, etc.
Addendum Tertiary - I suggest viewing other people's Rps and trying to learn from them.
Addendum Tertiary - For a 'First' RP, you definitely, don't want to host one. It shows egotism as far as I can tell.

I'm not being a flamer, I'm just doing quality control. You guys should study other people's RPs before starting your own/joining one with any haste. This isn't World of warcraft or everquest or anything like that. Hell, it's not even D&D. You're entitled to your own style of Rp, but It'd really do the community good if you had read up, even a little bit. Making sense of this at all? Also, please don't Rapidpost. Go back and edit, we usually notice edits.

Addendum Primarius - Usually, the DM (RP Leader) guides the players along their story, not the other way around.

Ok porkins but what is the point of writing it like a book that jest makes it easy to rip of and publish

Your one post in and already the thread has been derailed. I agree with Portkins. You can't host a 1 player Rp. That's like hosting a text game like the Arcade game. It dosen't hurt to reread your posts to make sure you spelled everything correctly.
And like Portkins said you should host your first rp until you have tried one.I can tell just by first glance that this was rushed and was not well planned.Not only that but it also dosen't have a organized GM and able. As a result it will die

ugh
anyway Zaran charges a bolt of energy which hits the rats tail a spark runs up the tail like a spark on a fuse when it reached the rats body the rat exploded leaving black ash.
"Well i didn't hit the side butit works," he looked at zothar whose face was one of shock,
"Magic is magic" Zaran told him they traveled further when an opening to a grove appeared Zaran went in
Do you follow him

P.S. I'm gonna add more people but I Can't skip all the story

I'm a fairly new RPer myself so here's a few tips to help you out do this doesn't happen again-

1. Allow more then one other player

2. Use atleast decent spelling and grammar, it doesn't need to be Shakespeare it just needs to be legible.

3. Either use the story of a game/book/show/movie or make sure you have a very well defined world that sets it apart from other worlds, at the moment it seems a bit like "generic fantasy land adventures"

4. Host make sure you know what you are doing but don't go overboard, it's your RP but it's not your site.

5. Have set character sheets and limitations of those sheets.

6. Have a flexible storyline that can adjust through other's input

That's about it, hope it helps and hope you can get this thing going properly, I have a couple RP's of my own to manage so sorry.
