What is Roleplaying?

Definition copied directly from the Urban Dictionary




" (v.) To act and speak as if you are the character you're portraying. To roleplay is as much about what not to say as what TO say. It means to keep your speech in the context of the setting in which your character (or avatar) exists. Context can be defined as both time and place.


Most roleplaying that occurs is in an online setting, such as an online game, a chat room, or a message board. "






The types of Roleplaying:

• Casual: These kind of roleplays is where anyone can just take part in.These usual don't need a signup.So if you see a roleplay that you are interested in that has "Casual" in the title feel free to post in it.
  
• Advanced/Serious: These are the more complicated roleplays.Sentence structure and grammar is highly needed and these are usually in no less then one paragraph in length.Usually signups and approval is needed in order to take part in them.
  
• Mature: As the name says these are mature content roleplays.Mature content is sexual or graphic violence in nature.If you are underage I recommend for you not to take part in these.
  
• One liners: These roleplays are usually one sentence in length and are not very detailed.Sometimes they have more then one sentence but still less then one paragraph.They are great for Beginners or if you are in the mood for light roleplaying.
  
• Closed: These require signups and approval before you are allowed to join.

There is also more but these tend to be the most common.
