Hello Fellow OnNa-ers!
Several roleplayers have brought to my attention their dissatisfaction with the current, "write however much you want" policy that is currently in place.
I have investigated their claims and have found that this rule causes single sentences responses that make it very difficult to continue the story. It also discourages the ones who write long replies because they think, "Huh. I write this long monster-post-thing that I've spend a lot of time on and all I get is a single sentence response? Wow."
Therefore, the rules will now be changed.
All roleplay responses much include a minimum of 5-7 sentences. This means an entire paragraph, which wouldn't be hard to write.
"But wait!" You must be thinking, "What in the world will I fill all that space up with?!?" Dialogue, description, action. Describe their facial expressions. Talk about how your character feels towards the other or the observations they are making around them. Thoughts, feelings, emotions.
I hope this isn't too much of a burden and I promise that this will make OnNa a better place for us all.
