Dante Giovanni - Dante Giovanni - 05-23-2009
Wow, Chubbs. Haven't been here in ages. I don't even recognize the place, nor any of the people in it. I guess that's because they're not calling themselves "Kami" or "Koola" anymore. I'm a bit disappointed about this custom-only dealie... I've lately had a maddening desire to play as Buu.
For some reason I can't make a new thread in the Questions and Suggestions board. I was gonna ask some questions before I submitted my join form, but I guess I'll just toss 'em into this thread. I'll submit my form shortly after a reply.
-Are we allowed to write our roleplays in first-person? I know third-person only was a bit of a stickler in the old Chubbs but I didn't see a rule about it here. Maybe an unspoken rule, then?
-Are avatars mandatory? I'd sooner forego an avatar altogether than spend time Google-imaging for an appropriate-looking character.

1. It's Third Person, I believe Ashe has a name for the certain type we do.
"Vad ducked under machine gun fire, sliding across the ground to assist the corporal in trouble."
That style.
2. No, Avatar's are not mandatory. They help depict who you are though.

Who were you when you used to be here?
There's no problems (as far as I've seen) with RPing first person in a personal thread, but in sagas and with others third person past tense is recommended.
The only changes to Chubbs is the stats and the no-canon's. It's still got the same basic rules, and most of the people. Kami is Kami and Koola is Waffuru, while Raditzu is Kaden, and ect.

That said, Kami doesn't actually RP, so it's not like he's special playing a canon. He's just... Kami.
