I read a bit of everything here. I enjoy the RP by people who have a unique writing style the most. I really like the stories when they are so descriptive that they paint a vivid picture with words alone.
I get disappointed when good writers leave or go inactive.
Also bummed when I feel like I've read everything that looks interesting.

Not to get info to meta.
Not to get any advantage out of it or not be surprised.
Not any RP that is relevant to you.
Just random stories or something that people post. Does anyone read them?
Also who here writes for the sake of writing and not to get something out of it. Same kind of question here. Not to get a SRP or stuff but just to write something cool and wait for those few people that lurk on forums to read fun stories/RP.
I'm just legit curious.
Back in the day when I actually played Disco, I read mostly RP that applied to my characters. If I had a rogue character at the time, I read up on rogue RP to get a better understanding of how my own character should fit into the group. I also always read up on Order/Nomad RP whenever it was posted, as those were my favorite groups.
I adore RP, I lionise other people's RP, and I'm grocking good at RP if I do say so myself. I commonly read Disco RP for the sake of amusement, not for Oorp profit. Besides, the whole concept of "Oorp profit" is inherently flawed as you can only use InRP information that your characters will have had access to, to avoid invoking a Meta sanction.
