[Jimbo]

Why do you want to?

 

[Oxy[Morons]]

you tell them not to ever do it unless they want to become a social reject

Ask @Mendel — he likes to invite his friends over while taking notes for rolenspiel staff meetings.

 

[Inspector Bandito]

internet people typing out interactions to other internet people as virtual characters

 

[gExile]

[scrubmcnoob]

if you still want them as friends, go out and play ball with them instead

 

[SoVastEndNow]

[Kerim]

keep the fact that you write essays about what a fictional character does in ten year old game on the interwebs out of your social life. thank me later

 

[Chanchanpong]

A way to pretend you are something you are not.

A huge game of pretend.

That's what it is.

 

[*honk honk*]

pretending you have a writing skill and acting skill, while wasting hours upon hours on a game, which has no benefit in the real world

 

[Strixz]

Never ever ever tell anyone you know you play seriousRP ever its a bad idea.

I just say 'I write a lot in my free time'.

I once had this big event chain thing set up for a HL2RP server that I'd planned two months in advance and absolutely needed to happen on schedule. Otherwise I would have needed to cancel it. This was years ago. My girlfriend at the time wanted to go see a movie or something and I needed to let the cat out of the bag.

She looked at me like I'd just shit on her mother's grave.

I think... having a porngraphic image on your computer screen is easier to explain than serious rp. :)

This may be harder to explain than porn.
