  I just had a great idea to add to the site, what if there was a group that specialized in role playing aspects?

  RuneRed:  Closing this discussion because the group has been formed, nothing else to discuss about it.

  Follow this link to the Role Playing Group

  As I always say when someone suggests a potential Group.... if there is enough interest, then it can be tried.

  So, IF people want a RP Group then post up your support, comments, suggestions on this thread

  I mean that people could come up with ideas to add more realism to the game, or come up with things to make playing skyrim more enjoyable by doing something different. Let's say somebody puts down an idea for a Viking that loves any and all alcohol, and constantly gets into fist fights, etc. Sorry if that is still unclear

  I think it´s a good idea, but I think it would be better if you posted it as a discussion ("Role-playing ideas for characters here!") then to make it a whole group.

  Thanks, I've mostly been on the site for the character building group so I don't fully understand the rules.

  I would be interested in this, Mr. Popo, and I think a group could be viable if the participation is high enough.  A single discussion on the topic of role playing might get so cluttered with ideas that it could be difficult to sort through all the responses.  Role playing is oftentimes a process that evolves within a certain character and the events of the game.

  Interesting idea.  I would definately join and participate in this group - assuming there was enough interest by the membership to form one.

  I'm also interested in this idea. Who would be the hosts?

  We'd need volunteers for Hosts.

  They'd need to be

  • regulars on the site
  • a track record for making positive contributions
  • willing to stick at it and not just clear off after a few weeks
  • have ideas to develop the group and add content

  Any offers?

  Sounds great.  Would be a group that kind of merges some of the aspects from Character Building, Lore, and Challenges, I suppose.  

  Like the whole "Green Pact Alchemy" discussion would probably be better suited for the RP Group as it deals more with the gameplay aspects of the Green Pact.  So, here the RP Group acts more with taking Lore and putting it into playing the game rather than discussing the lore itself.

  It could also act as a bit of a "watered down" version of Character Building.  Character Building seems to deal more directly with the technical aspects of making a character.  Though it dips into roleplaying, it doesn't dip as deeply as it could into characterization.  Thus the RP Group would be more suitable for discussing aspects of characters that deal more with their psychological motivations as well as how to best implement those motivations.  In fact, it could be paired with Character Building in a way that fleshes out someone's personal version of a build that works better with how they play.

  I think that Henson and/or Matthew feeney would make good hosts! Just because they seems too "know the deal" if you know what i mean. Im not pushing anyone, just giving some credit! ;-) I mean...enyone could be hosts, but i would take those two!

  I have plenty of freetime I suppose and I'd definitely be willing. But I'm certainly not the most hardcore roleplayer :\

  Perhaps Mr. Popo has several ideas on how to host the group, though I have no objection to the aforementioned proposed hosts.  I just want to put a plug in for the originator of the idea, in case he was too modest to do so himself.
