Felovadedlol

From BRRP

Jump to: navigation, search

Felovadedlol is BRRP's unofficial dressing room. Felovadedlol - sometimes called fodlol - cropped up a few months after V7OC ended, when several people in the comm talked about how it would be fun to continue playing characters after the end of a version. Since then, Felovadedlol has had posts from pre-game, post-game, and pulled from AUs, with characters from several different versions participating and interacting, sometimes at the same time.

  • Successful Felovadedlol posts are almost always started when multiple people are online and have time to kill. No one likes it when someone starts a post and then has to leave a few minutes later or starts one despite being busy or unwilling to respond to tags, because, of course, the post is hard to keep going.
  • Thread hopping: use it in moderation. Too much, and the post can get really chaotic and confusing to the participants. Not to mention: having your character jump into every single conversation taking place in a post for no reason just makes everyone else annoyed. Use common sense, basically.

Times it's okay to thread hop: When you want your character to start a (1) conversation with another character who has also commented on the post; when your character is mentioned in another thread and you want your character to react; when another character says something particularly shocking or hilarious in a thread and you can't pass up having your character react.

  • It's generally considered polite to let people know whether you're playing from pre-game or post-game when you post, either in an ooc note or by telling people in chat. If it's obvious in the post itself, this step isn't really necessary, though.

Felovadedlol is

  • A dressing room. This means that any character connected to br_roleplay_2 can be played there - this includes dead PCs, still-living PCs, NPCs, siblings, characters pulled from sidestories, and even genderbent characters (hey, it happened once).
  • A universe in which timelines make absolutely no sense. Seriously. Characters from different versions can talk to each other and all be taken from pre-game one day - the next, half of those same characters can be taken from post-game while the others are still pre-game.

Felovadedlol is NOT

  • Officially affiliated with BRRP. So if someone does something you don't like, take it up with them, not with the mods.
  • Meant to be used exclusively for pregaming or as an alternative to posting in your future character's LJ. Pregaming a future version there is fine from time to time, but if you want your character to update on a near-daily basis talking about their life, do it in their personal LJ. You might not get as many comments that way, but that's life.
  • Meant to be taken seriously at all.
