When You're Online
Hello all! This is something that has been bugging me for a bit. It seems like as the youngest player (I think so, are there any other high schoolers on this RP?), I never get an opportunity to RP with anyone except Bar-Ohki. I want to interact with other people, and I also feel kinda left out. -pout-

SO. I thought, what if people put down what time they're online so that everyone has a schedule they can work around? I mean, I have a set bedtime because of high school, so it's like "Where is everyone else?!"

If people want to join in, I'm usually on until 10 on weekdays, 11-ish on weekends. Sometimes later, but that's usually really pushing it. Sometimes there are extenuating circumstances (i.e. dinner) or I'm just not able to use the computer. My sister also uses the computer a lot, so it usually takes me a while to get access to the computer (at least until she gets a new laptop).

Thank you and have a good day!

	I would suggest posting as your own characters instead of just jumping into active posts. People can't elp when they're online because sadly I think you might be one of the only ones who had to adhere to that sort of schedule. I myself usually am on during the day at brief attention giving intervals and later in the evening. :x (Reply to this)

Hi hi~ modly responses ahoy.

Ah, I know that as a highschool-roleplayer it can be pretty hard to get good time with everyone older than you that's playing. When I was in highschool I wasn't even allowed on the computer on Thurs and Tues! BUT LISTEN- we can't like... schedule posts around you especially if you're the only one on that schedule- nobody stopped roleplaying 'cause I wasn't here two days of the week. It's not fair to the majority. The only exception to this is when I schedule a chat- I'll pick a good time for everybody which is usually like all day on a weekend.

What you need to do is make a post- tell Bar to hold of commenting it so someone else can jump in and then it'll be played out throughout the week, ne? It's no big deal if you go to bed at 11 and then don't comment again till 3pm the next day in your own post. And I hardly see you make a post that she isn't in so you can't complain that she's the only one you're getting playtime with. You're kinda only allowing playtime with her by the way your posts are. Okie dookie?

And remember school comes first so if you're failing because you stayed up all night in an intensely awesome thread with us it totaaaaally isn't our fault. 8D

Nonono, I understand what everyone is saying but it's like, I feel horrible because only Bar-Ohki has really gotten to know me and I don't know the rest of you! I feel like an introvert because of that. I've been trying to figure out some other way to get to know everyone better, but was coming up on empty. Thanks so much for the advice though!

Should I just delete this thing now? Because now I feel almost like a spoiled brat or something. -headdesk-

	Because you haven't made a post that other people can comment on. It's not that she's the only one trying. Don't delete it. Maybe someone else can offer up info. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	I suppose...But now that I look at it, it looks so stupid and trivial and now I feel like I wasted your time. Sorry about that. But thanks for the help, guys. (Reply to this)(Parent)
