Just out of curiosity: how do you all prioritize how you RP on the site? Do you give preference for one character over another? Do you try to post every day or every other day come hell or high water?
I really want to know because I'm trying to form better posting habits myself and reading about how other people do it sounds...really interesting.
((Terminology: Collab=RP Thread with another Person))
When school is out or slow I try to respond to each of my collabs once per day, to a max of three replies a day unless they are fairly short (300-500 word replies). When school is in session I try to keep up to about a week each unless we are trying something different (or waiting for a third person to enter the collab). During finals all bets are off.
When I have multiple threads with postings on the same day I will prioritize based on which one is most likely to change the characters in the future. Both my own and my partners. As I don't want those collabs to die and my partner or I having our character development trashed.
But I always try to post for the person whose waited the most--or so I'd like to say. Sometimes someone will bug me on AIM more than others...
Oh and I keep all my collabs and my characters stats/technique threads in a "BGotei" bookmark folder so I can open them all in new tabs to look for replies in case the e-mail notification glitches.
