Why Don't we start are own little RPG on this forum site? It wouldn't be that hard to start.
1.Everyone vote on an idea of what the RPG is about
2.Everyone make a character and base some its bio of the selected topic
3.Everyone vote for a 2-3 Games Masters (I would say 1, but anyone with that much power could be a bitch. With 3 atleast they can agree and mediate between the other two)
4.Use your Freakin' imagination and get the game under way.
***----------------------------------------------------------------***
What do you guys say?!? It could be fun!!

Ok,
Urm...Where to start. First of all we need to get everyone to vote on an idea to base the game after.(i.e. Holy war between Gods and Demons) Second, Have everyone create a character and a bio for that character(i.e. Alias=PooFarm Bio=Born from the depths of hell this Demon settles for nothing less than victory. He wields a sacred sword called Guritsu. He has blue hair........blah blah) Third we need people 2-3 to be like the dungeon masters or something. Like they can create quests and scenereos for people to work off of...Or people can go and make up thier own little scenerio and have people play it. For stats you can use symbols or something (i.e. Strength - *** <----- * is the symbol character has a strength of 3. ) It would take alittle imagination on everyones part, but I think it would be great fun. Of course everyone will have to start at an even strength and speed and so on and so forth unless we have a place where someone can randomly give them thier stats. You might need like a whole diffrent section for the rpg. I mean everyone will have to pitch in ideas atleast alittle bit to get it started. Of course the rules will change and might bend here and there because of bitchin and moaning. What else so you want to know...??!??

I guess we could set something up -- I will look into what other forums did and set up a fantasy rpg forum.
What do you think a good 'topic' should be for the RPG? Futuristic? Classic? Space? Hell? Ideas... plz.

Classic man! do it like 'midevil' with demons and shit! lol... I could possibly get into that

I think we should cross it between medieval and futuristic.

FF9 Style... w00t. Well, how would we run this? Why do we need game masters? Would this work out were people start random quests, and people respond, etc...

I got an idea, lets get two EXPERIENCED ex-dm's to DM this. As for the forum, I say we could just make it a pinned topic in one of these sections.
Note: Just delete all messages not pertaining to the game
As for like a battle system and what not, how are we going to work that out? If we've all got our own dice set at home, we can do it on the honor system? But if we do it like that, we'll have to make sure we can trust each of the people to be completely truthful in their rolls, be it critical fail or not.

For the dice rolling the two battling could have two people represent them and roll dice for them?!? Ya people making thier own quests and having people play them would work. We might need to find a diffrent way then rolling dice. Does anyone know how to create a random # generator? I could create one using Visual Basic and send it to one of the admins as an attachment. Thats how we could do the dice?!?!? I'll need to know how you want it to look though. Would you even be able to add it on the site? Of course everyone will need to realize that the WONT and CAN NOT (<----- unless they are lucky or not truthful)win everytime. As for the # generator I can add a code that generates also so we know that know one is cheating.
We will also need to figure out how to do the strength bonuses and speed bonuses. If I got a good enough description of how to set it up I could most likely just program pretty much all of it on VB and it will keep posting kinda at a minimal. That way people don't just spam in the game for posts......ya know?!?

Why do we need dice anyways... why cant we just use our imagination.
Id really like to nominate some world-masters for this, scoogen, mind helping us along with this?

I never said we HAVE to have dice. Our imagination works just as well. If you go to http://www.chat.rpghost.com and sign up there. There is a good idea of how to start an RPG. EXCEPT ours will be forums and not on Java.

Ya, I've got someone in mind, or are you talking about me being the WM?
I can do it if you would like, and I've got someone who can help me.
As for the dice, I just thought it would make the battle system a whole lot easier, becuase by using our imagination, how do we tell the dmg and all that stuff?
As for everything, I think that if we follow a D&D based format, it will help us with some guidelines, and just simple playing rules.
