Public Why does no one respond to my threads!???

My advice is similar to most peoples in here.

1. As a new rper jump into public threads let people get use to your writing style, show us who your character is. I am not trying to be mean but as someone who has been around forever, but when new rpers come along it's hard gauge if my writing style will mesh with someone who hasn't been in rp yet. I can count a thousand times how my style of writing totally clashed with another writer and it's not there fault or my own it just won't work well together. Also usually that clashing is in one aspect not all of them so I can do social threads but not combat with some writers and vice versa. Once people get a feel for your character and know how they can best interact with them you will see people flood in usually, just let us get a feel for your character jump into those public threads.

2. Era oriented threads from my experience or alternate dimension/timelines work best where you have a group of people who are dedicated to the idea and then you open it to others to be apart of it. Instead of trying to get people to join out of the blue. Because it's one of those thing where you have to figure out if you have a character to fit the time and place so it works best when you already got people who want to do it before presenting it to everyone else.

3. On that same thing as number two. Constructing a alt history/dimension to bring people in you also need to be real sure it isn't singular character driven. It needs to be open for others to do there things and be there bad ass selves. Generally when I plan thread even if it's about something more my character oriented, I write an opening and have a general idea where I want it to end up everything in between is open and my experience I have never had to really steer a thread working with that model it doesn't always get to the end point the way I thought it would be it does get the similar outcome in most cases. But that said I always have been a wing it kind of writer I like the surprises that come with it.

4. Get on discord of various factions, get to know people and you will find lasting rp buddies who will be there for your threads.

5. Failure happens not all ideas work out and plans seldom go as planned. This is one thing I see happen to a lot of new rpers to these kinds of forums. They get discouraged because there ideas don't pan out or there characters aren't where they think they should be. I can tell you I have failed more times on ideas then I have succeeded on in this sw rp forum legacy. I am a stubborn person though so I keep pushing and readjust ideas on the fly where I feel it necessary, it's not an easy mentality to get into but it is the reason I have outlasted a lot of writers. I still get discouraged hell I have even told myself I am retiring four times now in doing this, but the best thing to do at that point take a break and come back to it with new clear ideas.
