Is there any specific selection process, or if not, when/where do we start? _________________ [quote="Sephirothsicase"]Bah, Give me 2 days and a load of napalm...[/quote]

From the sounds of things, you start the moment somebody requests for your help. And atm... Nobody seems to be asking for anybody's help . If anybody plans on requesting for another member's help in training, I'd recommend that you also send a PM, just to make sure that they get the message. _________________ If I'm not here, I'm probably over at...

Yeah the plan is that people will decide they want training and they'll look through the list and contact someone they think could help them.
But if you know of someone who you think would benefit from your help feel free to contact them as well.
And once the belts system is in place there will probably be more people looking for training to help them overcome the tests. _________________ Oh what a tangled web we weave when first we practice to decieve ~ Sir Walter Scott

Panther, by all means put what I put as a speciality. The more of us there are, the more option a member has. I'm happy for you to have it as a speciality. I only chose it since most of my characters seem to have some kind of animalistic skill or something. Well, I say most, a fair few do.
Anyways, I got there first, ner ner ner *Pats Panther patronisingly*  _________________ Books are source of knowledge,knowledge source of power,power is source of corruption,corruption is crime.Reading books will get you imprisoned!

*Is patted* S'okay, I once went on a roleplaying board that was specifically for rping shapeshifting characters. It was overflooded by spambots and shut down, though. But that means there are plenty of animal-type characters out there, eh? *grins* The more, the merrier. _________________ Don't blink. Don't sleep. Monsters are falling from the sky. |

I would like to volenteer for this sort of thing. But, I don't exactly know what I can specifly in and teach to others, though. And I'm preatty sure anything I specialise in is already taken. But still, I would like to help. I would be using eather Lep or Feline, and what-ever subatutes they get in the winter hibernation if I were to start training.
Edit: I just thought of a possible idea. Lets see, I think I'll specialise in sword tequniqes, flight,
and syndrome adaption.

I'll do something, since everyone and their dog wants to be one:
Gods and Spirits.

Here's the current list of avaliable subjects and their tutors.
| Code: |
Fighting: Laporidae (Sword), Panther (Bow/Arrow)
Flight: Leporidae, Angel
Vampiric-based characters: Seph
Internal Dialouge: Angel
Telepathic Ability: Angel (Pyrokinesis), Father Mac (Telekinesis, Telepathy, Illusion), GBE (Shape-shifting)
Character Development: Panther (Alchemist, Ghost, Draconic), Embri (Equines, Other), GBE (Animals), Shaon (Gods and Spirits), Leporidae (Anthro)
Weapons Development: 3kul (Entrapment), Netdroid9 (Electronic)
Story Development: ???
Misc. Skills: Father Mac (Peace, Negotiation)
General Skills: Micka, Netdroid9, UncleAsriel, Nasari
Rules of RP: ??? |
1. What's 'Syndrome Adaption', Lep? Never heard of it 0.o. - Resolved
2. Is HisLordship actually volunteering laziness as a training program, or is he just here for kicks?
3. Would Danikat or UncleAsriel like to do 'Book-Based Character Development'? It's an interesting subject that appears to have been overlooked.
4. Would anyone like to change/add a speciality? You can have multiple specialities if you want to.
5. Who here would like to do Story Development? It's essentially just a class on basic prose, which can be handy if you're introducing an RP or simply want to give those action tags some meat.
6. Rules of RP is just a primer on powerplaying and the Freeform style we used. It's essentially a miniturized version of the General Skills section for those who've had experience in (say) basic prose or DnD-type RPing and want to get a quick primer on RPing before they start. This is a seperate category because it doesn't require the same dedication as General Skills and is therefore appropriate for a larger number of people. Any takers?
EDIT: Put 'Gods and Spirits' under Character Development as opposed to it's own category (Sorry, Shaon, it's not that big yet ). _________________ [quote="Sephirothsicase"]Bah, Give me 2 days and a load of napalm...[/quote]

| Meh, forget the Syndrome adaption. How about Charatur development for anthro charatures instead? xD |

Lep (and anyone else) you can just opt for general training.
Basically meaning people can approach you if they want to practice RP'ing as a whole rather than one specific thing.
Like if someone decides to join who's never RP'ed before, or as Net said someone who's used to DnD or another highly rule-based format and doesn't know how to go about it here.
And just because someone has chosen something as their speciality doesn't mean you can't pick it as well.
In fact it could be better that way. Then if someone leaves, is on holiday, is too busy or whatever there's still someone avalible for training.

2. I think he was volunteering to avoid training all together on the basis that its better to learn from experience.
3. I would. Asriel feel free to sign up as well since you're more of an expert than me on this one.
5 & 6. I'll put myself down for those as well, but again if anyone else wants to sign up then you're more than welcome to.
And I'm updating the list with new people and other changes right now.
Edit: And its done. I got a bit carried away and re-worked the whole thing (Thanks Net for the idea for the new style!).
Here's the shiny new list:

Are we open to more categories? If we are, I would propose "Multiple Character Control" for anything from your main character and his grendel sidekick, up to a whole army with strategy and tactics... I wonder who we could put in charge of that... _________________ ~Goron~

I volunteer to exercise my right not to volunteer. Why should I play nursey-maid and baby those who are beneath me? Must I lower myself from my perch to teach them to rise to it? If they desire such a thing themselves, they ought to demonstrate it by fighting to reach so high. There is no point in me simply giving away my secrets freely when when a learner could instead create their own secrets instead.
That being said, I would be willing to take under my wing those whom I see as pleasing to mine eye. But never forget: beauty is in the eye of the beholder. _________________ If I were I as wise, as many have said

There's no rule to say you have to participate in training. Otherwise I wouldn't have asked for volunteers, I'd have just added everyone to the list.
In part I do agree with you. I think experience is one of the bestteachers there is. On the other hand I remember when I was first starting out, I had no idea what I was doing and I would have loved to have had someone teach me, at least the basics.
My earliest attempts at RPing consisted of posting to let people know I was there and hoping someone would make me do something. _________________ Oh what a tangled web we weave when first we practice to decieve ~ Sir Walter Scott
