For everyone in this RP, when ti comes to conversations:
It wouldn't hurt to get slightly more detailed posts, even if it is a conversation. It will only make the conversations longer, without adding context. For example, you can have a discussion between person A and person B go like this:
Post 1: Person A: My name is Tom.
Post 2: Person B: Hi, my name is Jack. Did you want something?
Post 3: A: Yes actually, I've heard you are a shop-keeper, correct?
Post 4: B: Indeed I am. Why?
Post 5: A: I need something from your shop.
Post 6: B: Oh, what might that be?
Post 7: A: A steel sword.
Post 8: B: I have one. Costs 50 gold.
Post 9: A: Ok, I'll take it.
Or, it could be shorter, like this:
Post 1: Person A: Hi, my name is Tom. I've heard you're a shop-keeper, correct? I'm looking for a steel sword, do you have one?
Post 2: Person B: Hi, my name is Jack. I am indeed a shop-keeper and I just so happen to have a steel sword for sale. A mere 50 gold. What do you say?
Post 3: A: Ok, I'll take it.
Same thing, but only 3 posts instead of 9 posts.
It might be just be, but I prefer the 3 post thing much more, especially if there's nothing fleshing out the conversation.
