at some point none of us has developed a plotline with anyone else. When we do decide to try we either have find it easy or not. Some may have the nack for it...others need to develop it. Me personally I had previous experience co-writing some bits of fic with Teal and much earlier then that...created stories and such with a high school friend and roleplayed the characters using action figures. (many of my Saurian Isle characters come from those stories *grin*) So for me it is a bit easier, though it can be annoying when someone who wasn't in the plot before 'jumps in' and screws up what you have planned. But then thats all a part of a RPG, you are not expected to be able to plan out every step.
(take the Spider and Cyrus plot for instance, I could hardly plan at all in that, the only thing I knew for sure in that one was the awakening of Spider's hidden abilites)
Now for my upcoming plot (the one with Malice), I have ideas and things I want to happen, but I don't plan every inch of the way nor do i expect to be able to use all of my ideas.
And I have completely forgot what I was trying to get at here....and I was rambling...sorry.
Anyway...like Rett said, it is your choice to become a lurker or to leave completely. Whether you believe us or not we will miss you. Take care and stay Odd.
