My displays have been really slow and almost nonexistent, what actions do you recommend?
Edit: *my roleplays
What do you mean by 'displays'?

I'm on a kindle and it hasn't learned yet how to tell the difference. Sorry!
Could always start more, but sometimes RPs just slow down for various reasons!
I got to the point where I had replied to everyone and I had nothing to do! Then I took a trip and now I'm super behind again. It just happens that way. Life ebbs and flows. You can start more, just keep in mind that the flow will no doubt start again and swallow you whole. When things get slow for me I go back to games I've neglected or I make new characters! (Or I start new ones I shouldn't cause I'm a terrible addict.)
when I first started here I was on LFRP everyday responding to this rp, that rp,, another rp, every rp. I figured I'd never have enough, and some days it still feels that way because my partners have things IRL to do and sometimes a few days go by before I get a response. After months of this I finally reached a point where my rp partners were the ones who sometimes had to wait a few days before I could get back to them, and now I am more selective in what I get myself into.


That's pretty much it, just keep getting them going. Some will fail, some will never take off, and some players you won't get along with or won't agree on something and have to part ways. There's those out there waiting for you, however, that are going to stand the test of both time, and compatibility, and those are the diamonds worth searching for. All you can do is keep going and eventually you won't even be able to start new rps.

I... can relate, sadly.

I have 2 of those diamonds, but they have been more slow recently.
