It might be borderline "spam," but the most this kind of spam would get you is a locked thread. No biggie. :)

Why do you say you are a bad role player?
I've looked at your other posts and they seem OK.
Everyone has to start somewhere, so plunge in and have a go.
There are plenty who will help if you get stuck and even more to tell you wehn you've gone wrong.
It might be borderline "spam," but the most this kind of spam would get you is a locked thread. No biggie. :)Well...yes, it's borderline. It's a post that no one can really respond to and has little value, and would probably fit better in the spam forum. But I think the worst it can get is a locking.

Quick Newbie, before the mods get you, click on "thread tools": make a poll! Then ask if we all believe in evolution or creationism. The thread will get a million replies and you will be popular.

How about:
"do we value the fact that new players have to learn sometime and should be allowed a little leeway?"

Hey, I decide what's popular around here.
Sadly, it's a reality. :DThat's the problem. Discussion threads, polls, and spam threads always get the most posts. I once saw a poll thread with 1,500 replies before the mods locked it, and an uberthread on Spam got >40,000.

It comes to a point when you really can't be bother reading through all of it, particularly considering the poor nature of the content.
Present a contraversial issue, or one that simply by name strikes emotion into the heart of the user; compose a hypocriticall zealous first post; include a poll with dually amusing and themselves contraversial choices ... and you have created a monster.

Who cares? It not like anyone knows who you are! Just start your own thread, and do a one person RPG until you get the feel of it, then you can start RPGing with someone else.

The largest number of replies one of my posts received was something like 200, for a post about political belief systems.

I like to pretend that I am a meat inspector with the customs service. As an authority on borderline spam and roleplaying, I would say that creationism is a bunch of crap.

Come on lads, back to the point of the thread here.....

It was a simple and easy roleplay by someone like yourself who hadn't used the boards to roleplay before and it worked reasonably well.
The player didn't get flamed or mocked and some of the more experienced players joined in.
Go on give it a go, the topic doesn't have to be a complicated one, you don't have to take over the world and if done right you will gain experience.
Good luck.

Oh and send me a TG when you've done it and I'll try and give you a hand.
Back on topic:
I suggest you read Euroslavia's Guide to NationStates. It has links to all the threads you need to improve your roleplaying skills. I think it's in II.
Good luck.

You coud alternately just read, and explore many Rolepays for a while, to get a feel for them, I'm sure you would pick up some things from that.
