I have the utmost confidence in dA's Group Search and that those who make their intent clear will find the right RPer.

The rest of the Journal is going over some criteria I have been using to gather info on the many RP Groups I have passed by which was intended to help RPers better understand the RP and what it does.

It may be beneficial to have your info displayed clearly so even those that skim the page easily see if this is the RP for them.

Welcome

Delays in adding Groups.

It takes me awhile to add the groups and it may take me awhile for me to find time to add them and find more groups to add. I'm only one person trying to manage this group.

Guess this is a good time to through recruiting admins around. So if your interested just send a note or post a comment.

Thanks again for patiently waiting.

This is just a notice to any group that filled out the questionnaire. This is going to take me awhile to process. AKA: Copy and Pasting and checking to see everything is correct.

I'm afraid that this isn't a single man job and at best it will take me ten minutes to get post one RP Group/ Chatroom.

I might not be able to thoroughly evaluate each group properly and to think that in about a month or two I need to see if there are any changes to every group entered. I guess it's good that I have a questionnaire form for that situation.

There are still 22 groups that are processing while I am typing this. . .

All groups and dAmn chatrooms are listed below in these categories

Welcome


It's been almost a month and we have accumulated about 30 RP Groups/ dAmn Chatrooms.

About the RP Bar Color Coding Multilingual RP Icon

Click anywhere on the Bar to receive additional information, pertaining to the part you clicked on.




About the RP Bar


It's sole purpose is to present itself with as much information about the RP to the RPer without giving too much information to the point that it's like reading a page from a novel.

It's tries to be short and sweet as possible and assess the RP Groups and dAmn chatroom with information provided from the admins of the RP and with a quick assessment of their page and/or the location of which they RP.


Color Coding

Currently the RP Bar comes in three colors:

[Blue] = (Is Both a Group and has a dAmn Chat)
[Green] = (dAmn Chatroom Only)
[Gold, Orange] = (Groups only)





The colors are meant to make it easier to identify whether the RP is a dA Group, dAmn Chatroom or Both.
But the coloring is not necessary because there is a button that tells you the exact same thing.

The colors are just meant as a re-enforcement.
Also it prevents rainbows from overflowing the page.


Activity Orb

This is the Orb a rough indication of how active an RP is.

This will change into the follow colors:
Grey (Time Varies), Green (Daily), Yellow-Green (Weekly), Yellow (Monthly), and  Red (Hiatus/ Dead).

Note: This is an estimation of how often the Group/Chatroom RP.



Just for added re-enforcement and as a little reminder, when you hover over the image of the Orb, there will be a little text box that will say: "[Activity]: (Insert Amount of Activity Here)"


RP Tag Name

This is so you know the name of the place you might consider to RP in.
Also it would be awkward if you clicked on something random without a name to differentiate them.



Note: When the the name of the RP is hovered over there will be a little box giving a short description of the Group.

Also the description tends to repeat the same information as stated elsewhere, sometimes.


Group Icon

The following Icons will indicate if the RP has a dA Group or not.



The Group Icon with the blueprint is meant to tell you, the RPer, that this group is either very new (About less than a month old) and/or it's still in the development stages of setting up.
Best to proceed towards these groups with caution.

The Colored Group and Monochromatic group are easily identified as to if there is a group or not.


dAmn Chat Icon

The following Icons will indicate if the RP has a dAmn Chatroom or not.



The Icons for dAmn Chat are similar to the ones for dA Groups.
However, the blueprints icon will hardly be used since it is difficult to identify how far in development the chatroom is.


RP Redirect Icon

The following Icons will indicate where the RP is taking place if it's not in a dAmn Chatroom.

Sometimes, the RP will be outside of dA.
Examples: dA Journals, Comments Section, Skype, Chatzy, Etc.



But due to poor design the icon for Redirecting you to the RP are hard to to distinguish when shrunk down.

Also when you hover your mouse over this icon it will tell you what medium the RP uses and link you to the place they RP if the link is provided.


Application Icon

The following Icons will indicate if you need to fill out an Character Application in order to participate in the RP



Note: Each RP Group/ Chatroom may vary whether or not it has additional text in the box that appears when you hover over your mouse on it.
If the Application is on front page the box will say, "Please Visit the Group's Page to find the Application."
Of course this message will only display if you are applying to a group.

However, whenever possible the Application Icon will redirect you to the Application page for the RP Group/ Chatroom.

Sometimes the Application will be a dud and all you really need to do is ask if you can join or be a specific character instead of filling out questions. When these occur the words "[Ask to Join]: " will be presented when the icon is hovered over with the mouse.


Additional Info Icon

This Icon will tell you the most details about the group and what it allows.
Hovering your mouse over the additional info icon is advised.



If the RP is not affiliated with a Fandom or if the RP is beyond that of the set genre the Fandom belongs in there will be another section that goes by, "[Genres]: "
For non Fandom RPs this section will only appear if the RP is in more than one genre.

Some RPs allow some Mature content but they don't want the RP to be flooded with it, when this occurs the words, " *LIMITED* " will be written beside the mature content in question.


Language Icon

This is only if you are seeking RPs in other languages. . . .



When you hover over this icon the languages the RP supports will be displayed.

This icon is only featured in the Multilingual RP List.


End


Now you know about the RP Bar and how to effectively use it to make the best decision on which RP you want to join.

If there is anything we should edit or suggestions you have to improve RPChannel please tell us. We would really appreciate it.
