Simon DaturaWell it also means you can save it and minimize the risk of losing everything you typed. I type everything in Google Docs before I publish to log books.



Yeah I've thought about that as well and might just do that having a GDoc just dedicated to my story/log


It's also nice being able to access them from any device that you can sign into your gmail with. Then once ready to publish, it's a simple copy + paste job into Inara (though it helps to put all the bbcode tags in beforehand).

I am also just cheap and lazy, and don't wanna pay for office and/or install Libre Office.

Can't blame you in the least for that, and the only way I have word is through my collage. However, other than that yeah I use Google Docs

There's also that added benefit of not having to hit Ctrl + S every so often to prevent losing work, and having to remember to save the document in the right folder so it gets synced with whatever online service you use.

Go for it. That's basically what I did lol

That's what most people tend to do, actually, so go right ahead. I'd personally suggest reading up a bit on what has happened recently in the RP forums. It makes interacting with others a little bit easier.

Land your ship in the docks and join the not so much mayhem, but hopefully that will be changing soon.

I'm contemplating RPing with a second character to help keep things going when things hit a lull. I want to make him (or her) different to my current character.

Just looking for inspiration really, this character wouldn't be one I use in abundance. Just someone I can drop in and out of when others are getting on with their lives.

Was wondering if anyone could give me tips or suggestions? Should I make a second profile to help differentiate between the characters?

I think a second profile would be very useful. A few others do it already.

Yes, be a villain!

Buck the trend of the a-bit-rogueish-but-really-a-nice-guy trope!

Yes, more villains, I could use a partner. Or a friend.....I'm so lonely....*hugs himself* Seriously through I like Marra's suggestion.

Aha!!! To be fair, my current character doesn't have a specific moral compass, he just avoids making trouble for himself.

Villian does sound fun though, just gotta think what sort of villian to be...

Ok, I have made my new character. She's just on this profile at the moment until I fully settle on the details. Was hoping to get some feedback on her before I finalise anything.

Namely, does she seem, well, overpowered? Too aggressive? Too dark? I mean, I wanted to be just straight up villain, but I feel like I went overboard in the Biography =/
