RP Tips
Do you have any advices and tips for someone who starts with RP here?
I’m not the greatest roleplayer out here, but I’d recommend checking out the RP Request thread that’s pinned at the top of the forum. In general, if a user is interested in roleplaying or even just chatting they’ll leave a request up there.
In terms of actual RP etiquette, just keep in mind that the people you’re roleplaying with have responsibilities and lives too. If you need to be offline for a while, or you’re losing interest, you need to let the other person know. Preplanning for events with the RP and general scheduling are also very good ideas.
Roleplaying is a lot of fun, just make sure to do it responsibly. Remember- it’s a two-way street. Work hard, write well, and your partner will more than likely do the same!

So what you're saying is that patience is the key?
Reina pretty much said what I was gonna say
but to answer your question yes patience is the key. My advice is be respectable to other people who you RP with and understand that it's a multiple person thing. I learned this while doing nerdy things like being a DM in a D&D game as it;s the same atmosphere everyone has to be interested otherwise the RP will go nowhere and you're wasting everyone's time.

Do the thing
No seriously. RP! Get in there and roleplay till you learn, best way to learn is via experience
Yeah it's harder than you think. Apparently looking for someone into femdom is incredibly hard! Being a male sub that isn't into futas is hard man :D
My advice is to be as descriptive as you can, this really helps in immersion, and allows people to become more attached to roleplays. If you ever feel like your roleplay partner is losing interest, or you just want to spice things up, throw in some action, mystery, conflict, or suspense. This keeps the roleplay fresh and is often enjoyable for both parties. (If done correctly) But yeah, other than that, just know that you have to respect the other individual and their tastes. If they are into something you might not be into, try and reach a compromise, this shows your partner that you care about their interests and not only your own. Best of luck with your roleplays :)

Hey!
Thanks for the advice. I've been doing RP with some people and I tend to ask them what do they think about my style and involvement so I could improve. I would rather have them telling me what they don't like in my writing than just leaving me without a word. I guess I have to wait patiently :)
Advice
I've been roleplaying for well over 4 years now, i was thought by someone who played for 10+ years. My logic when it comes to rp is that if you put in the effort into an rp, i'll do the same, if you make 2 paragraphs. i'll make two paragraphs, if you do a one liner, i'll do a one liner. The best thing you do to enhance you rp, is literally down to trail and error.
There is no perfect way to Roleplay, everyones ideal way of perfect roleplay is different. However if you really want to become better roleplayer, details helps alot. I'll give you a demostration of a Descriptive roleplay
*The moon was high in the sky tonight, judging by how far high up, most likely close to midnight. There was a soft breeze in the air, it gently brushed against my skin as i walked through the forest with my girlfriend, we both loved walking into the forest at night, it was her idea, telling me she liked having sex outdoor at night. I eventually agreed to help as this was my first experience doing something like this*
*My girlfriend smiled at me as she lead me towards an open meadow, nightshade bloomed all around the meadow, it was quite a beautiful sight. My girlfriend laid in a pile of nightshade, raising her index finger and teasingly wanted me to join her. I slowly walked through the grass that came up to my knees, she giggled as she knew i was nervous about doing this in the open. She stood up placing her palm against my chest before resting her head onto my shoulder. Her fingers start to trace around my body making random shapes. Her hand slowly disappeared beneath my boxers and took hold of me. She whispered softly in my ear, her words were seductive and mischievous.*
"Happy Birthday big boy."
---------------------------------
An example of a detailed emote, although i've done alot more detailed than this, this was just something i quickly made up on the whim. Hope this helps ^^.
PS. Already kicking myself after re-reading it, ugh i'm not happy with that, sorry kinda rushed it.

As a new RPer, don't be scared of two-line messages though, especially during sex. Write all you think is needed, don't bloat your messages because no one wants to read verbose crap

Simply giving him advice, there is no need for you act like a douche bag cause you don't like creative writing :)

That's quite the blanket statement my dude
Though general rule would be coming up with a preference first. So yeah, not just kinks and limits but also the amount of lines, the use of first person or third person, etc
I'm guilty of not following my own rules though, by starting the RP at a whim or worse, being the douche that I am, dropping the RP when it turns into a one liner or when they strt to talk lyk dis...
Though I do sometimes check the kind of comments they make first on pictures they'd faved. Checking grammar, typos, all that jazz just to minimize such thing to happen
...Kinda makes me feel like a judgemental prick tbh, it upsets me, but it's far better than dropping RPs left and right

I Drop RPs too, and for similar reasons to yours. However, this doesn't mean that i like large line counts. there's a difference between detailed writing and verbose crap, and it comes when you run out of things to write. things turn into verbose crap when you run out of things to write before you stop writing, so you start rephrasing what you've already said, adding extra emphasis words, and adding general filler. (and that last part applies to you too, male_rper)

I agree with avganon about the verbosity thing, but there are ways to fix tht kind of stuff! First, find some things you can do to add detailing. Instead of saying "you felt her skin", pad it out and say "you felt the girls soft, smooth skin". Sometimes that detailing helps with a problem ive found myself in. If you are ever in a oneliner situation, it might just be that you or your partner just dont have enough to work with!

If by rephrasing what had already been said then I agree with you. Not sure if the way you wrote "run out of things to write" twice was intentional though cause that'd be pretty clever ahah
Sometimes I feel my RP to be rather stagnant though, it just feels like moving from one action to another without not much emotion being put in on my character
Just basic description of "he does X, Y, and Z", so maybe I'm guilty of some filler when I feel like so
