******************************************

Well, I decided that with all of the confusion about RP points, I have decided to turn this thread into a visual aid about WHAT you need in your RP messages in order for them to be even considered for points.

Some common questions:
 "What exactly do I have to do to earn RP points?"  "Why didn't my messages earn me points!?"  "You obviously hate our KD and aren't giving us points" 

Well, here I shall give an overview I guess by using Daisy as an example.

Dear Demonslayer Charley Deallus IV,  <----Opening(mandatory)


Please Sir find yourself upon my doorstep at your leisure. I understand you have much to do, and I respect a gentleman who puts his responsibilities ahead of pleasures.

Sincerely,  <---Closing of the letter(mandatory)

Daisy    <---Your name or something that signifies you

Now, when writing RP Messages for points, there have to be some MANDATORY criteria that have been put in place by those before even myself.  All I know, is that even I have to follow these.  I will make several more examples and variations by sending messages to several friends that would gladly be willing to give a few minutes to help out here.

I wrote this message to Duchess Jasmina last era in order to help her earn points

You (8/1/2009 2:25:43 PM)
Duchess Jasmina,  <---Opening(mandatory)
I was busy inspecting the walls of my defensive fortress when a messenger handed me a message from you. It seemed that you wished to know about the situation of the kingdom of Hot Inactive Veterans within the realm of Fantasia, and I thought that I would be happy to tell you about everything.
Early on, we began our war with the kingdom of Foundation. Things immediately began going wrong with Demonic Shezmu lost his city guarding one of the valleys and enemy armies began flowing through. Cities were hit by small groups of raiders that laid siege before being fended off, but every wave of enemies grew stronger and more dangerous. Our only ally, the kingdom of Chocolate, was having internal problems and they were not sending aid to our front as we desperately needed. Weeks passed and cities began falling to the growing strength and numbers of the kingdom of Foundation until things seemed lost. Lord Binh did all that he could, but without enough soldiers to support him, fell as well and we began retreating southeast away from the fighting. My own forces continue to harass and punish the Foundation armies that continued flowing into our area until Lady Strawberry Mzzlkshake distracted me with messages of romance and love until she had breached my walls and took me prisoner for her own pleasure.
I was trapped within my own castle for days at her mercy, which was not bad now that I think about it, but still I wished to aid my own kingdom. Several prisoners and I made a daring escape and we hoisted the good Lady's undergarments upon the ramparts of the castle before racing southeast as well.
I am afraid that I am growing low on ink, so I will send you the rest with another messenger.
Signed,            <---Closing(mandatory)
Charley Deallus,
King of Tasidian

 

Now, if you just ignore all of the content of the message, you can read it if you really want, but you can notice the text I put in red. 

The part marked "opening" is where you want to identify who you are writing to.  It can be anything from "My friend, Members of Hot Inactive Veterans, Prince Cidellus, Residents of the Asylum, etc" but you should identify who you are writing to. 

The closing in includes(in my example) Signed, Charley Deallus, King of Tasidian.  It ends the letter.  It can include anything from "Signed, Sincerely, Good Luck, Best Wishes, Love, etc" but you need something.  Then you put your name and maybe even a title(Viceroy of Revelation, Director of the Asylum, Prince of Cidel, etc).

If anyone has any questions, PLEASE message me or mention them here.  You do not have to copy everything I have shown, but it gives you a rough idea of the layout.

Dear friend Charley Deallus,
I am happy to hear from you once again, it has been a while since we met last time... Our paths led us to different Kingdoms this time, I am currently in the might Kingdom of Rebirth in the realm of Valhalla. There was really no danger in this world, easily we took the entire world with a help of our allies and now we are advancing down south to the realm of Starta. The plan was to launch a surprise attack on the large Starta Alliance consisting of 3 Kingdoms with over seventy members with large armies. The plan was a failure because most of the Kingdom was really slow and nobody had armies to support me when I attacked. However, my Troll armies managed to take over 5 enemy cities and cripple at least five large enemy armies. But then enemy reinforcements came and I was surrounded from three sides, enemies attacked but using tactics, magic and raw force I managed to break every attack. It was then when the reinforcements came and now we have twenty large armies against them and the enemy is retreating fast leaving their income cities. I have fought hard to keep the enemy down and now my friends came and took all income cities and did not even liberate ones that were mine. So I must say that with a large disappointment in my Kingdom I am sending you this message... Hope you will do well against your enemies and that you will not have to deal with what I am dealing

Your friend,
Duchess Jasmina

Dear friends,

It fills my heart with great joy to see my role play messages are being used for teaching new players how to write role play messages correctly. Though I do not consider myself as a great writer of role play messages, I do try to write as best as I can, and still follow all the instructions given long time ago by the moderators of these forums. And I must thank Demonslayer Charley Deallus for helping me with my writing skills, he indicated the mistakes I made and helped me to improve. And I would like to encourage others to do the same, follow guidelines and improve your skills, get titles and enjoy the game.

Sincerely,
Duchess Medusa, daughter of Jasmina

hmmm.... do they come up as u go along or ... ? do they show next era?


17:39:51 Sep 22nd 09 - Demonslayer Charley Deallus IV:

The number changes as you get points, but the title doesn't change until the next tick change.  Also, points are only distributed when a moderator(of official status) posts in the official topic :p

Roleplaying Points <---Topic where all RP point distributions are shown.

Points can be done anytime...it all depends on how lazy the moderator is...but typically it is always at LEAST done at the end of each era.
