Account Application

Hoboken · Post by **Hoboken** » Wed Mar 31, 2004 10:51 pm

I recently applied for an account and was rejected. Undeterred, as I am not an especially gifted writer, I then applied on a second occasion and was again rejected. I gather from the information included in the reply that you are too busy to comment on individual applications but I wondered whether you may be able to provide a more general explanation.
The reason I applied for an Illarion account is that having played games such as runescape, and become decidedly tired of having to listen to abusive children, I thought this would present a refreshing change. But I seem to have developed some deep conceptual error regarding RPG’s because neither of the answers I sent were satisfactory.
Unfortunately neither reading you website nor the forums was enough to dispel my ignorance, and so I wondered whether you would be able to help. Please be clear that I am not asking for a direct answer to the questions.

Thankyou for any help you can offer.

Writing skills don't really have anything to do with it. Imagination.

Please lock.

I did not suggest it was anything to do with writing skills, it is my understanding of RPG's that needs improvement.

Hm. Imagine you are writing a story with yourself as protagonist. Forget everything else, the technic around an online-rpg ect. Kasuma is right, here you have to use your imagination. Invent things, create your own character in your mind. Think about how he would react on certain cases.

I guess this will help you too:

Good luck

Since this has barely something to do with "Accounts" itself, and enough spoilers are spread how to improve yourself, it is time to lock this topic.
