Alot of people want to become literate, but they don't even know the first step. So, I took the time to think up a guide to help the illiterates become literate, or at least semi literate. Just follow the step by step instruction, and if you did it right, you should be able to improve your literacy more.
First, don't type so fast like your in a rush. If you are in a hurry, take your time. Typing fast just makes your typing worse.
Second, stop the text talk. You might like it, but trust me, nobody likes it. It is hard to read, and it shows you don't care how you type things. If you don't know how to spell something, don't text talk, just try your best.
Third, use punctuation, such as . ! ? " and so on. Punctuation is extremely useful in seperating sentences from speech and other sentences.
Fourth, be creative in your writing. Don't just type 4 boring sentences: He woke up. He walked outside. He killed prey. He ate the prey. Be creative! Add some details to your sentence!
Fifth, start capitalizing things. Don't type: henry nodded and walked outside. his clothes had dried from the storm. You all probably should have known this since 1st grade, but capitalize the beginning of a sentence.
Sixth, don't rush into strictly literate rps. Slowly climb the ladder. If you go into those literate rps, you would be like, "What did you just say?" "What does that word mean?" Start with rps that allow illiterates, then once you learn more, start joining semi literates. After you learn more, join literate rps!
Seventh, literacy is NOT just about big posts and big vocab. It is also avoiding powerplay, autohit, insta-kill, and god mod. That means don't kill someone on the first post by turning into a dragon and breathing fire on them.
Eighth, NO WOLFSPEAK! Wolfspeak is a huge No, No in the world of literacy. Wolf speak is basicly using words that don't even match the body part your talking about. Banner for a tail. It would be cool to have a flag on your tail, but still, it is wolfspeak. There is a topic in the Game Discussion thread that explains more about Wolfspeak, and all the words for Wolf-Speak.
I hope this helped, and I hope you people struggling with becoming literate are on the road to Literacy!
