Questions for Roleplayers and Petsiters!
13 years ago
I just have a few questions about these things, and it'd be greatly appreciated if a few people could take some time to answer them ;u; I'd love you forever!
So as some of you may know, I have a pet site in the works that I hope to launch in the summer, probably July or August. It's small compared to most, I'm not attempting something huge and idealistic, but it's going to focus a lot on roleplay and individuality. You can get a glimpse at it at http://wisterea.net ! 8D
I can't offer art or money for these questions, but if you do answer them, you'll have a chance to be a closed beta tester for Wisterea once we get to that point :3
SO THE QUESTIONS:
1. Do you prefer Forum-based or Private Messaging Roleplay?
2. Do you like to have the freedom of adult roleplay on a forum, or do you prefer a general rating for all boards?
3. How much customization do you want on a roleplay forum? Things like avatars, font colors, post colors, custom titles, etc.
4. Do you want to have one account for all characters, or a different account for each character?
5. Do you love to collect as many pets as possible, or just the select few that you like best or identify with?
6. Of the three, which do you enjoy customizing the best? Pets, human avatar, or items?
7. How important to you are things like games, battledomes, or exploring different terrains?
8. Do you ever invest real money when playing petsites? If so, what is your range in terms of prices?
9. How old are you? (can be approximate, like "teenager, adult, etc".
Thank you to everyone who takes the time to respond!

1. Do you prefer Forum-based or Private Messaging Roleplay? Both can be handy but i prefer forum-based personally
2. Do you like to have the freedom of adult roleplay on a forum, or do you prefer a general rating for all boards? I like having the option of adult RP availible but i find it better when the adult stuff has its own section.
3. How much customization do you want on a roleplay forum? Things like avatars, font colors, post colors, custom titles, etc. The more the better!
4. Do you want to have one account for all characters, or a different account for each character? I like having one account for everything. Though I have made alt seperate accounts for clean and adult before.
5. Do you love to collect as many pets as possible, or just the select few that you like best or identify with? Kind of both. I like to collect everything just to have them but then i have a select few that are my main's for me to love on :)
6. Of the three, which do you enjoy customizing the best? Pets, human avatar, or items? Pets! ^-^
7. How important to you are things like games, battledomes, or exploring different terrains? I like exploring, games can be OK i guess. Never really got into battle stuff
8. Do you ever invest real money when playing petsites? If so, what is your range in terms of prices? I would do some micro transactions to suppot a site yes not likely more than 5-6 dollars for a single item though.
9. How old are you? (can be approximate, like "teenager, adult, etc". 25 =D
2. General
3. Custom avi's, titles, posting colors
4. One for all
5. I'm unsure what the question is asking.
6. Avatars
7. They're alright.
8. I don't go on petsites. I'm not een sure what those are.
9. 17 about to turn 18
Sorry if my answers are a little sucky.
forum based
2. Do you like to have the freedom of adult roleplay on a forum, or do you prefer a general rating for all boards?
freedom for adult
3. How much customization do you want on a roleplay forum? Things like avatars, font colors, post colors, custom titles, etc.
full HTML customization for forum posts. premade avatars are cool IF you have to collect them (do certain things)
otherwise i like supplying my own.
4. Do you want to have one account for all characters, or a different account for each character?
i've only ever owned one account per site.
5. Do you love to collect as many pets as possible, or just the select few that you like best or identify with?
select a few i like best.
6. Of the three, which do you enjoy customizing the best? Pets, human avatar, or items?
put customization is rad when i don't have to actually do it. (subeta/neopets potions and paintbrushes, versus wajas dyes)
i loved loved loved the subeta human avatar customization. It was a nice larger size with super cool items, that could change hair and ground and background. Gaia's avatar customization is /okay/, i feel like it's too small and irrelevant. But they have good items too. Still, i am totally cool with no human avatar.
7. How important to you are things like games, battledomes, or exploring different terrains?
if a pet site has games, i'm much more likely to play it. battledomes aren't interesting to me.
different worlds and terrains definitely builds up the idea of a separate world, which i really like, and can give more inspiration when it comes to designing new items for certain locations.
8. Do you ever invest real money when playing petsites? If so, what is your range in terms of prices?
I have a couple of times. I have to really really really really want something. And then, it HAS to be less than five dollars. But that's just me.

20.
1. Do you prefer Forum-based or Private Messaging Roleplay?
forum based with the option to create passworded threads for private RPs
2. Do you like to have the freedom of adult roleplay on a forum, or do you prefer a general rating for all boards?
general rating with probably a section for adult roleplay, or have a rate-tagging system implemented.
3. How much customization do you want on a roleplay forum? Things like avatars, font colors, post colors, custom titles, etc.
a fair bit of customization to be able to distinguish between characters from post to post
4. Do you want to have one account for all characters, or a different account for each character?
one account for all characters would be best and easier to manage.
I can't imagine having to log into a different account each time I had to post on a different character, especially if they're in the same RP.
5. Do you love to collect as many pets as possible, or just the select few that you like best or identify with?
i would tend to go for for just a few that i liked the most
6. Of the three, which do you enjoy customizing the best? Pets, human avatar, or items?
human avatars by far, with pets following closely behind (matching outfits/accessories!)
7. How important to you are things like games, battledomes, or exploring different terrains?
I find these pretty important, otherwise there's no real reason to have the option of owning pets as there's nothing to do with them
8. Do you ever invest real money when playing petsites? If so, what is your range in terms of prices?
It really depends on the petsite and what I'm paying for. A few dollars for a special limited edition item with multiple purposes (think Gaia Online's monthly collectables) is more tempting than paying $30 bucks just to get rid of ads or be able to add a background to your journal/profile/whatever.
9. How old are you? (can be approximate, like "teenager, adult, etc".
early 20's adult.
1. I've had both, and I think I prefer forum based. I'm a bit of a hoarder, and enjoy going back over archived conversations. <3 (Can't do that so much with IMRPs. :<)
2. I don't really like to adult RP, myself, but I've been to RP forums that have a separate area for adult RP. *shrug*
3. I really love being able to have different avatars for different characters. >.> Text/background/etc... customization doesn't matter as much to me, as I tend to keep it set to the default anyway.
4. One account. Keeps things simple, and you can keep track of every one without having to log in and out fifteen times. There's also no chance of accidentally replying to a comment with the wrong character's account. XD
5. I collect the ones that I like the most. If that happens to be all of them... well then so be it. X3
6. *considers* I've only ever been able to customize human avatars before. Pet customization sounds really interesting, though. o.o
7. Games are awesome, battling... meh. Exploring is fun, especially if there are surprises hidden in strange places. :3 There was one site I absolutely adored where you basically just wandered, and if you solved the puzzles right, you stumbled upon new and interesting pets/items/etc... It was awesome.
8. Only very rarely. I never go above $5-10, though. Too broke. :/
9. 29 (<.< ... >.> ...)
2. I'm not much of an adult roleplayer, but I do like having that option open.
3. Enough to distinguish people. xD
4. I like to have one account.
5. I like both, I play on both Aywas and Subeta, and Aywas allows you to collect pets to your hearts content and Subeta only allows 5 as a starter (10 if you're a gold account) and more if you have the money. I like both sites, it's mostly the art quality that is the most important to me =u=
6. Human Avatars, but pets sounds interesting. :U
7. I love exploring and games, I was never much of a battledomer.
8. Lol yes, though I shouldn't. I've spent probably $50+ on subeta. >>
9. 18
Forum~ Though if I'm doing forum-based, I liek to play with a bunch of other people. Other than that, it is just instant messaging roleplay.
2. Do you like to have the freedom of adult roleplay on a forum, or do you prefer a general rating for all boards?
I like my adult roleplay, plz. The story is nice, but it is twice as nice if I can get some sexual tension off of my poor characters' uh... chests.
3. How much customization do you want on a roleplay forum? Things like avatars, font colors, post colors, custom titles, etc.
I like avatars. And I like being able to change font colors, for use in playing multiple characters.
4. Do you want to have one account for all characters, or a different account for each character?
I like both, really. I'd RATHER be able to have just one account, but I roleplayed on Livejournal for awhile, where I DELIGHTED in naming accounts for my characters.
5. Do you love to collect as many pets as possible, or just the select few that you like best or identify with?
I like to collect a LOT. But only the cool ones.
6. Of the three, which do you enjoy customizing the best? Pets, human avatar, or items?
Human avatar
7. How important to you are things like games, battledomes, or exploring different terrains?
Nnnnot that much. Though I do like little minigames to help gain points.
8. Do you ever invest real money when playing petsites? If so, what is your range in terms of prices?
Ffffyes. D: If it is a good one with items I like, I've spent... around... $50permonthdon'ttellanyone
9. How old are you? (can be approximate, like "teenager, adult, etc.)
I'm old. Okay, 22.
I strongly prefer Forum-based roleplaying. Even against Instant messenger RP. Less stress for me.
2. Do you like to have the freedom of adult roleplay on a forum, or do you prefer a general rating for all boards?
I like the option of having an 'adult' board to go to, and avoid if I don't want to see it at the moment.
3. How much customization do you want on a roleplay forum? Things like avatars, font colors, post colors, custom titles, etc.
I love being able to change my avatar as much as I want to whatever I want, so premades are kinda bleh for me. As for other customizations, I like making banners and changing font colors the most.
4. Do you want to have one account for all characters, or a different account for each character?
Either or, really. One account per person keeps things organized and less chaotic (And you don't have people pretending to be someone else), but being able to make multiples can be fun if you stay strictly IC on them.
5. Do you love to collect as many pets as possible, or just the select few that you like best or identify with?
I'm a mix of both? I really love getting pets/characters that I can make different personalities and such with, and I'm able to keep every one's personality in check.
6. Of the three, which do you enjoy customizing the best? Pets, human avatar, or items?
Hrrrghghgh...Oh man this is hard but I love being able to customize my avatars? (Like IMVU or Pico...)
7. How important to you are things like games, battledomes, or exploring different terrains?
I don't really like battling unless it's Pokemon-stlye, and exploring places is pretty fun unless it's the same thing over and over again.
8. Do you ever invest real money when playing petsites? If so, what is your range in terms of prices?
It depends what I'm paying for. I'll go ahead and spend $5-$10 on say, currency but ONLY IF it's reasonable. I won't pay that to get 10,000 points when a single small item costs 1,000points. I'd also pay up to $30 for a special item bundle or something along those lines.
9. How old are you? (can be approximate, like "teenager, adult, etc"}
I am 22, going to be 23 on July 21.
I actually like both, depending on if I want it to be a one-on-one RP or a group one.
2. Do you like to have the freedom of adult roleplay on a forum, or do you prefer a general rating for all boards?
While I do like a general rating, I do think that a separate adult board would be nice as well.
3. How much customization do you want on a roleplay forum? Things like avatars, font colors, post colors, custom titles, etc.
I usually just like changing colors. Although I like the idea of being able to customize more things.
4. Do you want to have one account for all characters, or a different account for each character?
One account. It's easier for me to keep track of everyone.
5. Do you love to collect as many pets as possible, or just the select few that you like best or identify with?
Just the select few I like best. Though on another site this has gotten me up to 24 pets. >>;
6. Of the three, which do you enjoy customizing the best? Pets, human avatar, or items?
Pets. But human avatars are good too.
7. How important to you are things like games, battledomes, or exploring different terrains?
Being able to earn site points somehow is important to me. Games, battling, and exploring seem like good ways to do so.
8. Do you ever invest real money when playing petsites? If so, what is your range in terms of prices?
Sometimes. The highest I'd ever consider paying is $25, for a username changer.
9. How old are you? (can be approximate, like "teenager, adult, etc".
I am 22.
