Punctuation and Grammar

In roleplays we like proper punctuation and grammar. It makes it easier for us to read and makes it look a bit more neat and less sloppy. Things that we really look for are:

Capitalisation: We like capital letters to be used in their appropriate places ie. at the start of a sentence, the name of a person, the name of a place.

Spelling: Spelling is always a big yes when it comes to roleplaying. We like to read proper english and not mistake spelling mistakes for otherwords. We do understand though that sometimes English isn't your first language and we hope to help you. If you would like some help in spelling you could always use a spell checker or go to www.dictionary.com to see what they can do for you.

Full stops and commas: Its always easier to understand someone's roleplaying when full stops and commas are introduced in their appropriate places ie. end of sentences, in lists etc.

Paragraphing: Reading someone's roleplay that is evenly spread out and not one humungous paragraph is always easier and more relaxing for the member. So if you could do regular paragraphing it is always a bonus!
