kind of a strange request, but would anyone be able to offer insight on the differences between big fandom style games (i.e. what’s found at wanna-rp) vs. original, pb style roleplay (i.e. anything at ~pbads)?
i can’t count the instances of wanting to join a game with a cool, clever concept, only to shy away from applying because i don’t have a full understanding of the mechanics. as someone who’s mostly done massive harry potter games her entirety of rp, i think i’d be lost trying to transition to ic/ooc posts, customs, etc. and since those games are typically all f-locked, i’ve never had much of an opportunity to learn by example.
anyone out there willing to give me a run down?

Happy to be corrected! I do remember being blown away by the creativity demonstrated in those communities, both in the substance of the narratives and the visual appeal of some of the coding. :)
and i agree wholeheartedly, i admire the creativity at ~exosolar with their worldbuilding and even just in the replies i've seen to storyline requests. i wish i wasn't such an old, lazy dinosaur set in my ways, lol.
thank you for your reply!
