I'm only posting this topic as requested by several friends. I know many have put a ton of effort into making their very own roleplay groups, but when recruiting or advertising, most hardly get noticed at all whether it be advertising in-game {not General-wise, but Locally at SB or Cape Portal, etc.} or on the Advertising board.
I've been noticing: The reason being is because players often come across group members that use incorrect grammar and / or txt speak. Also on their group's bio and site, there are also grammatically incorrect content found within. Their plot may look unorganized perhaps, as well as their ranking information. Because of that, they hardly get any recognition at all, or participators. Awr, come on... This doesn't mean that that group will result in terrible things. You can't base a group off of how they type or do things. Like one always says, "Don't base a book off its cover." That is, indeed, what applies here as well. Just because such uses incorrect grammar or contains a messy structure, doesn't mean it will be terrible. Heck, it could turn out to be an amazing roleplay group, so give others out thar a chance and step up, participate even. If you have ever created a group yourself, you know how difficult and time-consuming it is to apply all your effort into it, and how stressful it may be when all that work leads to nothing.
So if you ever come across a group that currently contains no members at all, don't be afraid to give the creator a chance and help him / her. I hope this has a positive impact on most RP groups, now. If it does, then I'll be glad. c: I mean, we're all one big and happy community.. We'll always have each other's back.
Sorry if this was a waste of your time, but I want those who've worked hard on creating a roleplay get what they deserve. Any feedback or opinions? Are you one who willing to try new things, or one who sticks with more professional groups?
