An article I saw on the ongoing worlds blog
Your thoughts? I think this pretty much sums it up...
- It tells you more about the character. You see the world through the character’s eyes, get a deeper understanding of their mannerisms and their philosophy
- Advances the story. Even if it’s only by a little bit, the post moves forward the main plot, an approved subplot, or someone’s character arc
- Creates openings for others to write. A good post goes out of its way to offer a place for others to expand on it, to engage other players
- Length doesn’t matter if the point hits the spot (That sounds naughty)
- The character has a chance to develop at a realistic IC rate: a romance takes more than one IC day to blossom or solutions to problems are found over time and with the help of others.
