I'm currently planning a new RP, which I'd like to run on the forum when it's done. The problem is, I've started new RPs before, and they always died after only a couple of pages. How do I keep an RP alive?

I find it sadly ironic that no one replied to this thread.

Huh... well, you need to have a lot of characters that are willingly active. Sometimes, with less populated roleplays, the story dies out because of there isn't enough posting characters (der...). If things start going like, allow the creation of more than one character. Or throw in a major plot twist to maker things interesting again. Also encourage character deaths. Everyone loves a good death to tear them up.

I meant that it was ironic that a no one had posted in a thread about how to keep threads from dying.  |

It's also fairly ironic that by posting that no one replied, you did in fact reply.

And not only that, but it got people to reply.
This is a case study in irony.

It's like rain on your wedding day!  Seriously, though, I never got how rain on one's wedding day is actually ironic. I mean, maybe if you're a meteorologist it's ironic, but otherwise it's just kind of a drag. |

I think it would be nice if we have a thread with instructions on what steps to take to start off a new RP. I mean like having an OOC discussion, profile and IC ofcourse...
