1. First off, posts here at L.T. are usually written in third-person, past-tence. This can be stretched from time, but I'm sure everyone would like it if you'd adhere to this type of writing. Here is an example:
Kelly roamed the hallways of the her school, hoping to find a new friend to talk to.
2. There are several ways to mark your Roleplay actions and speech. In example, some people use the following to define an action:
*Allorix dove under her bed, in frantic search of her Botany textbook.*
or:
-Allorix dove under her bed, in frantic search of her Botany textbook.-
or even:
(Allorix dove under her bed, in frantic search of her Botany textbook.)
or simply:
Allorix dove under her bed, in frantic search of her Botany textbook.
There are also a few different ways to signify speaking parts, like so:
"I'm so hungry I could eat a cow!"
or:
'I'm so hungry I could eat a cow!'
There are also ways to show silent thoughts, take a look at these:
I can't believe I smiled at him. Does he know that I like him!?
or:
I can't believe I smiled at him. Does he know that I like him!?
3. Please, refrain from god-roleplay at ALL costs! God-Roleplaying is when one character writes another characters actions for them. This is not only rude, but unfair. Punishment from the Admin can be induced if this persists.
4. Try to use proper grammar and spelling when posting. Also long as you do your best everyone will be happy, so don't worry if it's not perfect.
5. The 'all-powerful' type characters are generally frowned upon. You earn abilities and knowledge by developing your character. Not even the Admin have 'super-de-duper' powers!
