The role play boards are for just that, allowing furries to play out different roles in alternate settings and stories. They're games. Most of the Fun RPs are quick scenarios or themes and let furries perform an action or say something fun. These are easy to jump into and just as easy to ignore. On the other hand, most of the Serious RPs are extended stories with set players and characters. They require dedicated posting to move the story along, and new players aren't normally allowed after the story has matured. I hope that helped. Any other questions?
