Ok. There are a lot of confusions on what makes and RPer good or bad. Just because your post is two pages long, does not make you a good RPer, for example. In this thread, I will place some common confusions on what makes an RPer good.
------------
1.) Elite RPers always have long posts.
------------
Just because you write a super long post DOES NOT make you an outstanding RPer. Generally, some of the higher class RPers DO create longer posts because they focus on the descriptions as well as what their characters are doing. You can write a two page RP post for all I care, but if you don't get the right point or you're out of character a bit too much, then you are still not an elite. Also, Elite RPers know how to make their posts good, but not too long to where it is boring to read. When rping, you must write excitingly and well to make it fun for your readers to read. So generally, I'm not saying all good RPers, but most keep their posts to about 4-6 paragraphs long. Some excellent RPers have 10-15 paragraph long posts and that is completely fine.
--------------
2.) Elite RPers are always older teens or adults.
--------------
*chuckles* This makes me laugh at how untrue it is. Age does not matter at all! I'm a mere 13 years old, but I've been told I'm an excellent RPer. You don't need to be 18 or 19 or have a wonderful education to be a good writer! Some of my most fun and imaginative RPs have been with younger kids. Why? Because they have a large imagination and can always keep a thread rolling. They remember what we're all here for and that is to have fun. :D
--------------
3.) Elite RPers always use long words.
--------------
Nope :]. Sure most do because most good writers have a moderately sized vocabulary (see even I do it ^^) Just because you don't know what the word "unfathomable" means doesn't mean you can't be elite! Some people even think they're elite because they know a few pretty words. Fact is, if you don't know what it means, don't use it. No one's going to laugh at your vocabulary, so don't worry!
--------------
4.) Elite RPers are always absurdly intelligent.
--------------
hahaha right :-/ . Do I look absurdly intelligent to you? No I don't think so. I'm just a good writer and have a good imagination. I'm only in the 8th grade here people, it's really not that amazing....
--------------
The point is....
ANYONE CAN BE ELITE!!!
------------
Note: If I think of anymore, I'll add them. Also, if anyone else does, please inform me :]
