An RP, is the way people manipulate a topic to a point, making it unfold however they choose. Yet too many may drown out the writers. The writers are primarily what fan fiction is for. Not you're RP's....
Possibly that's what it was created for... Wikipedia on Fan Fiction: "Fan fiction (alternatively referred to as fanfiction, fanfic, FF, or fic) is a broadly-defined term for fan labor regarding stories about characters or settings written by fans of the original work, rather than by the original creator."
I'm not saying ban all RP's or that all of them are bad, just that there are far too many of them that are too similar.
There I agree, but you were saying that we should only have one or two... I must admit that that's a rather low number to properly satisfy what people like... As I said, not everyone wants to play Harry Potter, or Final Fantasy, or whatever RP is most active...
Okay the numbers I said are debatable, but the main problems are the amount of RP's that show up and cancel out the stories is becoming a problem.
