I've been RPing for two years, started off with a one on one RP, that was basically a story, where one of us wrote a paragraph and then the other one would pick up the story.

It was kind of interesting, because you didn't even have control of your own characters or the overall plot, so anything could happen. Not to mention that it was a huge crossover RP, so literally anything could happen.

I eventually started here, on Legend of Nirn, the great thing about that RP was that everyone had different interests and therefore had different writing styles. Due to the vast contrast as far as user styles go, I'd say that, that was the most interesting RP I've ever taken part in. It also had a sequel and a bunch of spinoffs, most of which did quite well, especially Aubeanic Reign, which was a darker version of Legend of Nirn.

Sadly, the dark edge that Aubeanic Reign had grew to be more and more... juvenile is the best word I can use to describe it and I didn't like the direction that it was going in, I left and pretty much everyone else decided to leave at the same time.

We had a fresh start with Brave New World, which, if I'm honest, I wasn't entirely keen on at first as it meant abandoning my canon and legacy but I've warmed up to it now, to the point that I actually like some of the characters more than my LON ones.

I personally like any kind of RP, I always like to try new things but I tend to go for RPs that promise to be good stories. I'm likely to be turned off by a vague, knee jerk story along the lines of "There is evil but heroes will stop the evil, now go nuts!"

I usually like having something to go on before I start RPing, I'm willing to give anything a whirl, provided that someone's put some thought and/or effort into the concept.
