The first purpose of this post is to bump this thread, which I believe should be stickied anyway. The second is to inquire as to when some of the new sections will be finished, specifically the Advanced Tactics and Game Master's sections. I've been thinking a lot about "RP philosophy" lately, and I think I have some good stuff that could be added to AT.

Oh and Lost, if you need any help finishing any of the sections, I'd be glad to.

Sorry about the delay in updates, I had run into exam season, but now that I'm in my spring break, I have a large amount of time to write, and that is my plan to update this

Yeah checkin back in on this. Hope it gets sticked and if you want an extra two cents I don't mind chipping in from my experience.

It really is an awesome guide, I agree with the sticky!

And when I say stick, I mean it's own sticky this time =P, I don't think Hig's thread can get much bigger.

Very nice job Lost, glad to see I was included as an example. You should really talk to a mod about getting this sticked, it could help quite a few people out in future RPs.

I've petitioned the Mods for a sticky, it seems Kuliani must deem the thread sticky-able. He's the one I'd talk to about it.

I'm in the process of thinking about maybe coming up with a way to successfully begin the initial steps of writing something for this. Shouldn't be too much longer.

Yea, sorry I'm taking so long. My thought process just refuses to work in a structured, efficient manner, something I've been working on for years. Hopefully I'll have something put together soon.

Don't worry its not like I'm speeding through this either, so whenever you got it works bud

Very thorough post, very well done. And apparently, it's already helped a couple of people, so it was worth it.

I also concur with the stickying request.

I'll simply add a link to this. This is a specific thread, and pretty in-depth. Therefore, it is unlikely to get stickied, as forums want as few stickies as possible. Nonetheless, since I have the tool of a stuck thread, I can use that.

It'll eventually disappear though, unless people keep bumping it.

Also, it's no more specific than the other RP guides that currently inhabit stickied spots. If anything, it's less specific, as it covers many more subjects. It's also a much better guide than the ones up there right now, I'd venture to say.
