Wfp stands for writerfeedpad, and it's a place to write and chat with other people online. To join a wfp, just click on the link! You should be taken to a screen that looks something like the image below.

You can change your name and color by clicking on the name at the top right. On the bottom right is the chatbox. Type a message there and hit enter to send it and chat with other people! The large box on the left is the main area of the wfp. It's typically used when you have to write more, or to store things that you don't want to get lost in the fast-moving chat.

Feel free to ask the other people in the wfp (also called the pad) if you have any questions! We're always happy to help <3

Omni @alliyah oooh got me a 3-in-1 XD

I think the best animal is the meerkat. They are loyal and friendly and the way they lookout for predators is just so cute.

3 things that I am proud of accomplishing.... hmm. You're making me think about this XD I'm going to go with YWS things I'm proud of because those are easier to come to mind. I think the biggest thing I'm proud of on YWS is the Roleplay Revamp. It was such a passion project that took a lot of time and effort to put together and seeing the fruits of that labor every day in the roleplay forum is nice to see. Sure, there are some lessons to be learned from a project that large, but it is probably by far my biggest accomplishment on YWS. I think my second accomplishment is becoming a GM. Idk, that may feel a bit self centered to say, but it really like... validated my inner thoughts about my time on YWS. And I think my final thing I'm proud of on YWS is just having people look up to me, my ideas, and my writing. It's humbling because I've always been so self conscious about those things, and I still remember my (awkward and cringe) upbringings on YWS and roleplays. It doesn't feel like I've been roleplaying and writing on YWS for 10+ years. But, there are people out there who only known my most recent roleplaying and consider my stuff an inspiration. That... will always be crazy to me, but I hold it dear.

Any my next username?? Hmmmm I do gotta come up with one now that @gremlingeodes has changed their name....

jk jk, I'm pretty happy with Omni for now! I honestly haven't felt an urge to change my name. If I were to, though, it would probably be furthering my exploration of my gender identity online ^^

How do you come up with RP ideas?

@Spearmint oh gosh you had to ask a deep question like that huh XD okay I'mma spoiler this because I think it's gonna get long.

Spoiler! :

My biggest inspiration for roleplay ideas are the forms of media I consume. No joke, most of my ideas have come from video games, or shows, or movies, stuff that I enter the world of and my mind is like "hmmm now what can I do with this?" and I mold it into something that I want to see a story of, or a world that I want to explore more of.

I start with a premise. Like, what if there was a magic school. Or what if there was a typical prophecy but with a twist. Or, I start with something I want to accomplish with my roleplay, like "let's do a roleplay that focuses only on the action" or "let's do a roleplay where the whole intention is to have multiple roleplays happening in the same world and they're all interconnected"

My next point is to batter the heck out of my idea. Throw question upon question on it, because that is how my worldbuilding develops. I pick at it and find the plot holes, or I find the obvious questions that other writers are going to want to know. (I don't always get this down well, but a general worldbuilding tip is that you should be ready to think on the fly and adapt your worldbuilding at the whim of a thought. )

A lot of my ideas never come to fruition and make it to a roleplay. I have many WFPs that have random roleplay ideas or premises or even some that are partially created but scrapped because usually I find a plot hole that's too big for me to fix at the time and I move on to something else.

But many of my ideas come from exploring already created worlds. So, if you're looking for motivation or a spark of creativity, go to the source! Consume media, read, watch a show, look at animation, play a game, watch a play. I've often heard that there is no such thing as an original idea anymore, and that everything is just a twist of perhaps the same six simple plots. But, the uniqueness, and the novelty comes from what you bring to the idea... to make it yours. And, roleplaying is presenting that idea for others to make it theirs, and to combine that into something truly special and collaborative.

If you suddenly had to have your skin change to an unnatural color, what color would you choose for it to become?

@KaiaJersaga ooh that's a fun question! I think I would like to have my skin be a maroon or a dark green. Either something earthy or something molten.
Aug 10, 2023

Spearmint Woah those are super in-depth answers :]
Neat to see your RP brainstorming process! Throwing questions at the premise to find plot holes sounds like a good idea... I'll have to try that next time...
Aug 11, 2023

KaiaJersaga I could have guessed that green.
