ROLEPLAY TIPS
Longer roleplays are not necessarily better
roleplays.
If you drag on and on in a roleplay the reader will lose interest and will eventually stop reading your roleplays all together. The prez head usually senses this and therefore you will lose. Keep it fairly long, but DO NOT over do it.
Do not make too short of roleplays.
Just as in the case of too long of roleplays. RPs can also be TO SHORT. When your roleplays are too short, then they also do not hold the reader's attention because there is nothing there to grab their attention! If you make to short of roleplays, be for warned, no matter how good you think it is, you will lose.
Keep vulgar language down to a minimum.
No one wants to hear endless swearing. Besides, if you read it outloud to yourself, don't you think it sounds pretty stupid? Think about it...when in real life (except in ECW) do you ever see a wrestler swear. Not many do, and when they do they keep it to a minimum. Even Stone Cold keeps it down So why shouldn't you!
Have a good subject to your roleplay.
When you blabble on and on about many different subjects in one roleplay the reader tends to get lost and eventually loses interest. As said before, when you begin lose a reader's interest, you begin to lose matches.
Create a detailed setting for your roleplay.
Be creative with your roleplay. Make it like you are in the locker room or at your house drinking some Jack Daniels. Adding scenery to your roleplays help the reader understand where you are, what your mood is, what your attitude is, and in a nut shell, who your whole wrestler is.
Don't make too many roleplays for an upcoming
match.
Once again, when you make too many roleplays for a certain match or too many in succession, the reader begins to lose interest in you and your character. Save that roleplaying ability of yours for another day. If you use up all your new ideas in one day the next day your roleplays will most likely all sound the same because you have used up all of your good ideas!
Don't pysically attack another wrestler or federation
employee in your roleplays.
First of all, this is not a way to make friends in a federation, and second, you are basically breaking a major rule on our RP Board, and you WILL be suspended. If you want to hurt another wrestler in your roleplays do it verbally, and make a fool out of them.
Find your opponents weak spot.
Many a wrestler are tempormental when you arise certain subjects in your roleplays. For example, if your opponent once lost to a pethatic jobber a long time, feel free to mention that in one of your roleplays, make him feel stupid, make him get angry, because all the anger will only hurt his ability to make a good roleplay against you and will cause him to make mistakes. The key to roleplaying is out speaking your opponent and i guarentee you, if you hit a weak spot of theirs, you
will definitely do it.
Check your roleplay for spelling or grammar
mistakes.
A roleplay with a bunch of misspellings not only looks stupid, but it makes your wrestler look bad. You might be meaning something else, but because you worded it wrong, or spelled something wrong, they got a different message from you, and might cause you to look like a fool.
HTML Tips
Include HTML in your roleplays, just to make them look nicer and easier to read. Here are some basic HTMLs for your RPs, use them wisely.
Change color: <font color=whatever color>
Underline: <u> and to take it off </u>
Bold: <b> and to take it off </b>
Italic: <i> and to take it off </i>
Put a pic in: <img src="pic address">
For a link: <a href="the address">Title of
link</a>
For background music: <bgsound src="sound
address">
Practice, practice, practice.
Do you think anyone has become an e-fed legend over night? I don't think so. The only way to get better at roleplaying is by doing it! The more practice you get, the better all around e-fed wrestler you will become...guarenteed!
