What do you love about Role-playing?

[loonaboots]

i like rp'ing because it a.) improves writing skill (it's helped me write essays better, among other things). b.) it's fun to map out worlds and such with other people, and have them control their own character, in ways that i can't control. figuring out how to reply is half the fun, in my opinion.

it's also a great escape if i'm down in the dumps, and it's good if i'm having trouble writing something, as well. overall, it's fun, a bit beneficial, pretty great for socializing (ooc threads, yo), and is a great escape sometimes.

I like RP because aside from I love acting (I do!) I like writing and it's the...unpredictability of the RP, because I don't always talk in OOC before the other person/people post. I might be thinking that this thing will happen, but the person will make that thing happen instead. Make sense?
I especially like making kid/teen characters (easy to relate to), or Power Rangers RP, because Power Rangers! I also have a thing for making twin/sibling characters. I think with more people to RP as at once, I can think like 'and then Person A does this thing and Person B reacts like this and then the other person's character(s) react.'
Also, majority of my Gaia friends are RPers.
