Reminds me that I'm glad I already know I'm not an actor -- I tried it in a tiny way as a kid -- and I'm glad that I haven't got into the RP stuff. I'd get self-conscious about the performing, same as if I acted. I think I know enough about acting to know when it's done well, and who can do it well, but I have no burning desire to do it. And no burning desire to RP.
Most of the RPers I can't stand write way too much prose into their RP, and it's obnoxious.
I'll hope/wish they get screenwriting classes. Get that reminder to keep most lines of dialogue short. (A lesson Lovecraft never got; good thing he wasn't trying to wow people with his dialogue.)
