Thinking of returning to the fold

After a while of letting my nation die a gruesome death, I am thinking of returning to RP since I have time to kill now.

I'd like to ask before doing so though, did any of you like my RP when I was actually doing RP? Because I am thinking of doing the same thing with a little more attention to detail.

Any input?

To be brutally honest...

It wasn't that great. The comedy seemed forced.

Like I said, if I were to give it another go-around, I'd try to address the glaring problems.

I'm already playing NS again (Under New Anticitizen), but not sure if I want to RP or not.

Why not just play a serious nation?

Why not just play a serious nation?

Because otherwise I lose all motivation for RP. I figure I turn it into something both I find entertaining to write about, and something that people can read as well.

I'll be serious, politics isn't my bag. But when you mix in something that does interest me, I'll go for it. But straight politics is something I can't do.

As far as RP goes, I just like to have fun. I don't go into armies and that hubbub because it kills my fun. When I have to start calculating CP and such like that, it kills my fun and I lose interest.

That is why I'd never want to wage war on other nations, nor accept a war declaration from another nation.

But like I said, I'd stay in it as long as it remains fun. The only reason I quit last time is because my senior year was just starting, and I had no free time to RP at all.

Anti, I'm sorry to say I don't remember your RP, since you only RP'd for a short time before becoming OT only. However, I see no reason why you shouldn't RP again if you want to, so I say do as you please.

It's no problem, few do. ^_^

I know how you feel, Anti. I haven't RPed much with Esternarx in a while specifically because I can't really take international politics roleplaying as seriously as is required. Esternarx is, for the most part, a joke nation pretending to be real. I like the idea of Esternarx, but it's hard to seriously RP it.

You could always keep Esternax and make a second nation to do serious RP.

Like I made Manupolis as a reminder of how bad I would be if given power. Not to do serious RP.

That's just the thing though, I don't really want to do serious RP. At least... not in the way that an international political simulation would require...
