Ok, here's for those of you that don't know how to para--or use propper grammar when rp-ing.
This is quite simple, once you get to know it, just like anything, practice it for a little bit, and it eventually becomes second-nature.
To para, what you do is just like you're actually writing a story--say for school. You seperate what the people say with quotation marks, and to make it easier to read, on this forum, please change the color of the quotations if someone else is talking.
A good post would be like this:
Matt walked through the forest, looking around at every tree, expecting something to pop out at him any second. He clutched the kunai in one of the pockets of his baggy cargo pants--if anyone was to come at him, they would have to talk to his Kunai.
"Matt, come get me." A voice said.
Matt jumped. His eyes darted from tree to tree, searching. "Be a man!" He said.
A bad post would look like this:
matt walked threw the forest and saw a person. hi he said
So yeah, it really is quite simple.
