[Back to Aerrin's Role-playing]
This page sprang up as an idea in the midst of RP and grew on channel - thanks to those who got it going! It's a collection of rules that anyone who RPs knows are true.. if you haven't experienced them all yet, you just haven't been RPing enough! Some might only be funny to PernM**ers, or HTers.. or even Healers - but I thought I'd share them all! Enjoy! Oh, and e-mail me if you have something you're dying to see added!
If you enjoy this list, check out You know you've been role-playing too long when...
1) RP always gets good when it's bedtime.
2) The moment you get into good RP, someone will page you and ask you to heal them of some major illness/injury, right that second. *Jaqui
3) You type something juicy meant for your SOs eyes, and mav it to the room, another channel, etc. *Jaqui, S'phen
4) Whenever you hold a hatching, you will draw twinks like honey draws ants. *Jaqui
5) If you're talking about someone, you will inevitably mav it to the channel that you share with them. *Jez
6) The moment you miracuously manage to get everyone in the same room for a much needed meeting, the moo will crash. *Jaqui
7) You will inevitably write out a huge long mail, and send it to all of the wrong mailers. *Jez
8) The moment you get into a heavily romantic RP you will be interrupted by: Your parents, your spouse, the door, anything distracting. *Jaqui
9) Pose anything at all naughty, and it will end up on a channel with Shirgall. *Jez
10) Your RL SO will log on at 2 am, after you've been waiting to see her all day, and before she can even hug you back, mom will come in and catch you still awake and tell you to go to bed before she unplugs the computer. *S'phen
11) If you are posing something meant only for the eyes of the other person in the room, undoubtably someone else will walk in the second you hit enter. *Jaqui
12) The lag monster bites just as you hit enter to your largest pose ever. *Jaqui
13) If you're talking about someone, they inevitably log on at the precise moment that you hit enter. *Jez
