Hey Guys I know I do not post on these boards as much as I should I am just busy. I am not sure if all you know but I am an actual pro wrestler I have been doing it for a year now and well sometimes it makes it hard to RP when I have shows and training, but I have been trying. Now what I need feedback about is am I kidding myself with the Crimson Dragon I have been trying for the longest time to make him not a Jobber but try as I do i just can't seem to get the wins and then the next week when I am up against the same thing you are a jobber. Which hell I am beginning to think that is all I am. What I am considering know is should I retrier the character and then try to make a new character. Any feedback on if I should retrier or how I could improve the character and rps would be helpful

To be honest... for me, I didn't even read ur entire last rp because once you mentioned real wrestlers, that killed it for me....
the choice is urs, you've gone up against some tough competition lately.
if you're not feeling the Brett character anymore, try a new one... but don't give up just because you lose to good quality rpers.

OK I am not really saying I don't feel the character I am just having a hard time with things here I guess since I have been in the actual sport I look at stuff differently. I am trying to forget some of the stuff I was taught on cutting a promo but its hard lol. I guess what I really would like is some feedback on how to improve the character here.

Figure out your story...don't just tell us that Brett's in a bar in Florida....for example...tell us what street the bar is on. What type of bar it is...the people..the music...what the booths and table are like...don't get to wrapped up in that where the roleplay gets boring, but visuals are better. Grab a piece of paper and make a complete history of Brett's personality completely down to his likes and dislikes....relationships he's had in the past..problems he's had in the past...people he's friends and enemies with outside the ring...the more you write down for him, the easier it is to get a feeling for his character.
As far as being in a lull' that's cool, everyone goes through it...I feel like I'm half the roleplayer I was a few years ago and I have no idea why even....if you want a win..then ask AJ to set you up against one of the jobbers...but remember to roleplay it and not just wait for the win. I'm a firm believer that there's a place for everyone in efedding...don't believe me...look at Firebomb...his roleplay style was really bad at points but he's held some titles that I looked at as being some major titles at the time.

Thanks guys for the input I am going to try and tell more of a story with my rps in fact I have started jotting down notes about places I that have used for rps and some new places that way I have the information on hand when I go to write an rp. I want to thank AJ for the advise he gave me in a pm and I am going to apply it. I am also going to jot down some ideas storyline wise for my character and work on rps for it just working in who I am fighting into it. I also have to talk to chris and see where he is going with the Horsemen thng and see where I fit in so I can add that to it. Again thanks guys and I have to say RCW has some of the best people here, I have been in a few feds and none of the other players would even care to give advise to guys.
