I'm just wondering why there isn't any Pinned RP's like "Bon Bon Town Square" Or "Market " Or "Delight Castle Casino", You know?

Or is there... Am I just missing them?

What do you mean by official RPs?

I don't know, I'm the guy with the dumb opinion

I think he means, and correct me if I'm wrong here, the lack of RP's with a greater connection to the main storyline or town itself.

I think he means like, threads set by the moderators in specific areas of Bon Bon such as the casino in Delight Castle or in the town square.

I thought it was what most people did. That most RP threads were made for someone to show their fursona's arrival in Bon Bon, and that most RPs take place in Bon Bon anyway. Confused

I'm Thinking both of you get the gist of what I mean. But no specific story set around any events like "Thieves of Bon Bon" which is kind of themed. (By the way I'm not saying it's bad)

Can't someone just create a RP set somewhere in Bon Bon? I don't think there'll be any RPs stickied or otherwise run by any moderator, so I'd say that the best option is to simply create one and set some rules for it.

Well I was hoping to make me RP going about BonBon looking for treasure while snooping around places we shouldnt. such as in mayor blues mansion*whistle*

I believe the question is in connection with how most forum sites based around some form of plot tend to have an open RP where all the characters just mingle and interact. No real plot, more like what goes on in Bon Bon elsewhere besides the main characters in the comics. An RP where you just live out the daily lives of the characters.

And normally, they are created by a moderator or administrator and are stickied, just because they are typically special RPs, though here from what I can tell almost every RP is like that.

Well, I think one of the main reasons is that only Vanessa's story is canon. Some of the sides have been accepted for background histories or how you got there, but it mostly seems that an all out "Bon Bon RP" isn't really going to happen.

I'm trying to make one but I am focusing on my little map project first, since with the map a Bon Bon RPG of the more general fashion would be far easier to coordinate.

Official RPs? That seems so odd to me. The official stuff is all done by Vanessa.

Now, if you were hoping to come up with something for the comic/site, then you can work on coming up with names and backgrounds for the characters Vanessa makes in the background.

For instance, (and the common examples) Drake Skyflyer and Johnny Six-Killer both helped come up with histories for Daisy Nugget, and Drake made a new character Alexi. Oh, and there was also Iris.

Well, It don't really matter any more, the RP's have their own section!!

YAY

And I took a dive in there to answer a few threads that got moved there, and I gotta say, you guys probably won't see me in there at all. Possibly a few times when I get my own working computer again, but..oi.
