“Man, I hate one-liners. Seriously, people, if I write you three or four paragraphs, you don’t need to match my length, but could you PLEASE at least give me a few sentences to work with? I personally don’t like writing short replies because I like to be descriptive and give my partners something interesting to read, and there’s no way I can write multiple paragraphs in response to just one sentence.“

“I try not to be a stickler for matched length, but goddamn if it isn't a muse-killer when I write a multi-paragraph thing and people respond to it with a single paragraph.“
“I had to unfollow this person because I couldn't stand the fact that they were half-assing their replies with me but they put in effort for other people. Like...what the fuck? Really?“
“I hate how it suddenly seems like my friend thinks she needs to write insane lengths to roleplay with me. Sure my writing has gotten longer and better over the few years we've known each other and so has hers, but I'm happier writing things with her in general and seriously don't give a fuck about length. Why's it feel like it's become a contest? We're friends, it shouldn't have to be one in anything. I just want to write with her.“
Just a general reminder:
You never have to match my post length.
Sometimes I will write a veritable novel as a starter post. Sometime I will write a single sentence.
Whatever you feel like writing to keep the story going is fine with me.

“You know what gets me angry? When my roleplay partner puts little effort into the thread. They put me in charge of driving the plot. I put out a paragraph or two and they give me a sentence. Like, what the heck? This is a team effort. Give me something more than “[character] nods head”. It makes me not want to roleplay with you, and it kills my motivation!“
PSA
You do NOT need to match my reply lengths! Please do not feel any sort of pressure to do so. Write whatever you wish, be it ten words or a thousand.
I have been a fantasy writer for over a decade now. My specialty is epic fantasy (think Game of Thrones length books, 800-1K pages or so) set in worlds of my creation. Writing like that requires a lot of description, as I am dealing with people, places, animals, races, items, magic, etc. that I have created myself, so unless I explain them sufficiently, the reader may be left confused. So for a long time now I have been cultivating a very verbose, descriptive style. In addition to that, I tend to write very heavily skewed toward character development (especially emotional development) as the focus of a lot of my stories. Because of this, my characters tend to have a constant internal dialog going on that I often intersperse into my narrative prose. Beyond that, certain threads just inspire me at times to write more or I find myself going into detail about something that suddenly interests me, and if I’m being honest, I LOVE to write. Long passages come very easily to me, typos and all, haha.
This is my personal style as a writer who is now venturing into the world of Tumblr rping. It is not everyone’s style. That’s okay. =)
If I write ten long paragraphs and you want to write two sentences in reply, go right ahead! I know that many rpers on Tumblr do prefer to write very short replies or that writing may be difficult for them due to language barriers or certain learning disorders. I absolutely understand, and I would hate to think that my long-winded style was forcing any of my rp partners to feel compelled to match my length. Don’t get me wrong, I love reading long replies and if the spirit moves you, please know that I read every word. =) But... they are not necessary and I am not disappointed, mad, or rendered uninterested when I see a short reply. It’s all good, people. Really. ;)
The point is to have fun, so have fun! Whatever relaxes you, is fun for you, and works for you... is what I want you to write. =)
Write on, Tumblr. Do your thing. XD
I hate people who don't understand the concept of writing styles not working with each other. I write long ass replies, you stick to small, one line icon chats. I'm not better than you but something here isn't adding up and you should see it.
