I have a small suggestion for the roleplay box. It's not anything to be physically implemented, but just a suggestion to help participants maintain an orderly atmosphere. I find myself reading the roleplay box at times, and not knowing who's who or what's going on due to the confusion. So, perhaps roleplayers could use a letter and a number for designation. The letter (A, B, F, K, etc.) will designate which roleplay they are partaking in. The number will designate their posting order.

As an example:


[Person1]: (A2) -post content-

[Person2]: (H4) -post content-

[Person3]: (A1) -post content-

Since H4 posted before A2 managed to finish their post, it would have otherwise been harder to tell who was a part of which roleplay, and in what order they went. With this system, it would make it easier to decipher. Just an idea.

It is an okay idea but honestly the number part confuses me...

Mmm, probably the best thing to do would be to allow posting with a different username (but ONLY on the RPG shoutboxes)
It would probably not require a large amount of time to add that, does that sound interesting?

^hmmm, that sounds a bit less confusing than the a1 b2 thingy(no offence it was a good idea and it lead to other good ideas).
i likes the idea, but would everyone understand and take the time to do that?

How would that work out? Using a different username in RP's?

(Have you noticed the amount of RP suggestions lately?)

You mean like an alias designation, where your real username will be displayed, but the character's name that you are playing will appear next to it, or in place of your username?
