I can say that I find this more annoying than anything else in my ENTIRE role play career. Walk Outs and the Revolving Doors. What are those, you might ask? Well, it's a term I've come up with, and I use it to describe someone who walks into the room, and then walks out when no one jumps to role play with them.
Dudes, just Stop.
We all want to role play yes, but the holidays are newly over, kids are still at home from school for many of our parent rpers. Time zones are a mixed bag of nuts too, We have our Englanders, down to our Aussies, back around to our peeps in California. Ok? We Got a LOT Of people around at different time zones, so it's GOING to be a little difficult to find someone to rp with.
Secondly, please do not expect someone to make a story arc for you, or tell you what to do with your character. We story tell yes, but honestly, only you can really decide what you want the end result to be with your character. I find that it often helps to have a 'Goal' end in mind for your character, a place where you want them to end up or be at this or that point of time, think of it as an A+B=C equation. It helps, and it also makes it easier for people like Badger, Scrammel, and myself to ST something for you.
Thirdly, if you are not progressing with one character due to etc situations, then make another character. Maybe stop with the estrogen fest in the room and play a male, you might find that you have more partners can you can shake a stick at in such a situation, which should stop the walk out/revolving door situations. (Personally, I have been refusing to play my males lately because my cock is chafing trying to keep everyone happy, quit frankly I am not fucking Oz, and this bastards bag of patience be fucking empty.)
For those who are EXCEPTIONALLY lazy >.> Don't deny it, we got some bloody sloths in the room, the owner included .
I have compiled a list of everyone who wants rp and who are on about the same time. Not only THAT, but I also know what each person wants in an RP because I've been watching, and because I listen. (Maybe instead of puttering about and getting on me on Skype and in Pm, pay attention to other peoples rps, you might see something you like and then decide you want to rp with them too.)
Also... One Last Bit... DO NOT EXPECT SOMEONE TO RP WITH YOU! If you want role play, find it, start one with someone. Just do something random! It doesn't take a lot of thought, and surely its better than whining with a thumb up your ass, or IC lurking and pouting and generally making me want to shank you with a spork. ((The urge is getting strong guys, seriously, I will start sporking people... in the neck... )) This does not mean soloing, this means actually talking to another person in the room and going hey, want to role play? I have this or that character, and I think we could do that or this, and it would be cool to share etc with you. It is that simple. Seriously. If you guys just ASKED me, instead of whined to each other or to me, I would bring you in. Hell, I will even double if someone just stopped expecting it, and showed some manners and ASKED. I will even ST for you.
I am not an asshole (often), I just want to enjoy my rp too, and its hard when I get drug out of it to this or that place because someones throwing a lip. Do all of us a favor, just ask, don't whine. Don't complain. Don't revolving door that shit. Just. Ask.
Below are the list of people who I see the most often in the room, so your chances are rather good of getting some form of role play with them. And, being the nice jack ass that I am, I even included a little blurb about them and what they play.
Leo- Just got in the room, cute kiddo, and a good rper. Female character yes, but still good all the same. New girl in town so she would like to make friends. Human
GM- He is a very good rper, not terribly large, his posts are nicely condensed and easy to read. His Character Warrick is looking for a male companion, and as such, having an old ass Tremere as your companion isn't exactly a bad thing. Plays a Vampire.
NF- Doesn't come in IC as much, he was one of the few male rpers, so if you want that then I would advise getting off your asses and asking him. Gangrel Vampire.
Kro/Artem/Yuu - Another male rper, for the love of cheese fries, just ask the man. He is always open to rp, and he plays well, so there should be no hang ups. Plays Vampires.
DD/Cthulu- Good rper though his net tends to take a bit of a dive and its hard to get him back. A bit sporadic yes, but he is still good, might be best as a board/in room rp. Plays a werespider.
Mistress Tits- Veronique DuBoise, she has a messed up back story, but she often in the room and at many hours, so if you are looking for RP she is on almost as much as I am. Plays a thin blood Vampire.
Adeliade- She is a FANTASTIC rper, her hours are harder due to her being down under like, but she is worth it. Trust me, I have rped with her for over a decade, she is truly a blessing to RP with. Plus, she is very flexible, which means there are few things you can toss at her rp wise that she can't work with. Vampire.
DigitalHarlot- New to the room, still getting her sheets in order, but she is FUN. She will also be making a few male characters to help me with my chafing issue, bless her black heart, so if you are still hung up on getting your taco out there then yeah, there's your sign. Vampire and Human.
Reet69/Bjorn- Another person who lurks in IC ooc, and who is another good rper. His is a blood doll, so playable with both Vampires and Humans.
See? Plenty of people to rp with, you just have to stop thinking inside the box so bloody much. Plus, there is nothing wrong with using the boards here and stating what time you will be on and what days. Hell if it will help everyone, I will make a section for that sole purpose, complete with a calendar. So please, guys, stop making he into a homicidal maniac and let me enjoy my rps too yeah?

PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF THE FLYING SPAGHETTI MONSTER come to me and give poor snapped a bit of a break. For the americans, I understand Snapped is in your time zone. I understand that, however leave me messages, I will always get back to you, now if that's via the boards or skype that's fine i check both every damned day (I'm an addict so sue me).
