Sometimes Roleplaying can be confusing,if it is in a particular game,the other player is either a complex roleplayer and you're not or they're really bad at roleplaying,so I'm here to teach you the basics.
This roleplay forum is simpler than most so you don't need any experience to rp here.Just read this:

First,you create a character using the character form and post it in the "Your Character" forum.You must wait for me to accept your character before beginning to roleplay.

Once you're accepted,you can start roleplaying!Post in a topic or create your own thread!

Here's what you could write for your first sentence~
Alyssa walked into the magic store and up to the counter,she waited patiently to be served.(Preferred)
OR
I walk into the magic store and up to the counter,I wait patiently to be served.
OR
*Alyssa Walks into magic store*
*Walks up to counter*
*Waits patiently to be served*(Not recommended)

Now,if you want to speak,just add quotation marks.
"Excuse me,could I buy a love potion please?" asked Alyssa.
OR
"Excuse me,could I buy a love potion please?" I ask.
OR
"Excuse me,could I buy a love potion please?"
*Alyssa Asks*

They're the main basics,here are some basic rp terms:
Rp~Roleplay
OOC~Out of character
BIC~Back in character
POV~Point of view
IRL~In real life

Nothing annoys me more about roleplays than Mary Sues or Gary Stus,this means creating a very perfect character with lots of power and no faults.
Example~

Alyssa Brown
Silky straight blonde hair
Sparkling blue eyes
Slim but strong
Gorgeous
Has every single magical power
Most popular girl in the land

Uh...No.I will not accept these profiles.

Another thing that annoys me is god-modding,here's an example of god-modding~

Alyssa punches Martin in the stomach and Martin flies into a pile of glass.

No no NO.
You could say~
Alyssa attempts to punch Martin and aims for his stomach.

Then Martin could say~
Martin dodges the attack.

See?Roleplaying can be fun and exciting if you do it right.
