I think it's been hard for me to find "credibility" with my past charrie, Aislynn. That's why I'm starting over and doing a fresh approach by starting with a first year. I have found it difficult to go into detail every time I RP, to explain why she did the things she did, and in the end it kind of came across as arrogant and heck! I wouldn't even want to be friends with my charrie. I felt completely out of place. But, with time and watching how other people RPed I'm gradually understanding ways of going into detail with your charrie, without overdoing it.

I think it takes time to find out what's everyone's history, but in a way it's our responsibility as RPers to make an effort to find out new things about people. I think I jumped the gun and dove right into my characters "ways" without explaining it gradually, through thought and conversation.

I, personally, am a very visual person and like to see people's backgrounds and I admit go to people's profiles so I can better understand their charrie. But, with 500 characters, it's kind of hard to understand every detail.

I'm hoping this time around starting over with a new charrie, I will be able to expand my RPing skills and go into thought and explain some things better in detail because that was definitely something I was lacking with Aislynn.

Would it be cool to have a Bio thread? I think it would be. Like a "filing cabinet" the Ministry has. Will everyone look at it? Probably not, but it's a good reference and again, I'm a visual person, so if I'm RPing with someone and they're acting kind of strange, I can go and look at their profile and get a better understanding of theirs charrie, so I don't steal their thunder for being the way they are or "hurt" their creativity.

I really don't know if any of this is relevant. But, there's my two cents.

Wait, so isn't this thread meant to be used to show our charries backgrounds?
