a step by step guide if you are just writing, not making a group.
step 1, create a discord account. you do not need to purchase nitro.
step 2, find a discord rp.
step 3, apply to said rp and be accepted. [ some have you apply by copying/pasting into a channel that anyone can see. some have you dm. some have you apply through tumblr or other websites. ]
step 4, create your tupperbot. [ this uses a discord server bot to change your icon/name each time you want to post as a specific character. you can have many of these. instructions are usually in the channel or available somewhere on the server. it’s 1-2 commands and you’re done. ]
step 5, post your intro in the channel that has been designated to you by the admin. this might be in a separate server to keep things organized. you are the only one allowed to post there.
step 6, start writing. there are typically channels for plotting. there will be a system in place to create channels for threads (usually titled yourcharacter-theircharacter). you do not need to make a new channel for each thread. the other channels in the server will make it self-explanatory.
plus: mobile rping is easy and there are literally no cons. you can use gifs/pics if you want to but most of the time you don’t have to. 1x1 servers are a thing. you can do whatever you want there.
