Hi guys ! I notice alot of the times people will end up ghosting me, or perhaps they lose interest rather quickly in our rps. I was wondering if anyone has any tips/critique on how to keep an rp fun for you and your partner?
Also if anyone here reads this and they have rped with me, a kind critique would be greatly appreciated. Thank you ^^.

Hey there! I'm sorry to hear that you've been experiencing that, but I'm glad that you're coming away from it with an eye to self-improvement.

There are a few help articles in RPR's database that might give you a few ideas about changes that you could try! Writing for RP is a great one, as is The Responsibility of RPers. Ideas for Kick-butt Character Profiles might also give you a few helpful tips, too.

Most importantly, I personally find that communication with your partners is really important. Just checking in every now and then to see how the RP is treating them can help to head problems off at the pass, before they start to become real issues. And, of course, it's also important to keep in mind that not everyone will mesh well together, too, and that's perfectly okay.
Just thought I'd pop in and show you something in case you haven't seen it.

Winters_Fury is a user here on rpr who has a thread called Winters Writing Tips. This is a great collection of all kinds of writing resources including a lot of rp improvement articles and such.

I'm not sure if this is quite what you're looking for but I'd say it's a great place to delve into and find writing improvement ideas for writers of all levels.
Also keep in mind that ghosting and such is really common in any rp community. Improving is wonderful, so it's great to work on anyway, but also be aware that some of it might have nothing to do with anything you're doing "wrong."

I wish you the best!
