Am I the first to think of this

Now it seems to me there should be a seperate forum section for roleplaying and storytelling. I for one think it would be great to have a section for posting stories where the only thing poeple post are comments and know this from the start(or dont post at all).

What do you think?

There is one: The Arena: I gather one can post whatever RP type stuff they want in there...It's just sorely neglected ;)

Well the Arena is for RP...not storytelling... there is a diffrence. :P

Historical documents are where origin stories go. :D

Which is now called Origins O_o

[Stalking Shadow]

Sure, but what if you're not telling an origin story, just a short story with your characters?

Storytelling still counts as roleplaying, at least in the context of the game and related forum. It might not always be active third-person, but the number of instances where someone ISN'T writing about one of their characters is small enough that it probably would'nt support a seperate section.

Put it all in one place, please. We don't need 50 different creative writing forums with 197 sub-topics for specific styles.

well im not saying it wouldnt go in the arena....just another thread for prose......thats all im saying :write:

Roleplaying and writing are not the same thing. They have entirely different purposes, entirely different viewpoints, and entirely different techniques. Even considering that you're righting a Mary Sue story, it's just barely even comparable.

I'm throwing in with Cold Cut on this one. I would suggest another section for story writing. Aside from origins and roleplaying.
