Here is a simple way to roleplay.
EDITED FOR YOUR PLEASURE

*>
Artaher reshapes in.

*>Halls of Awaiting
Built on the western shores of Aman, facing only the Encircling Sea and the
Wall of the Night stand the vast Halls of Mandos. In this small and remote
corner of the Halls of Awaiting you tarry in a time of recollection, perhaps
listening to echoes of times long gone by, or perhaps dreaming dreams of your
own and wondering when the time will come that you are able to return once
more to roam freely upon Middle-earth.
A large sign is posted upon the wall for you to read.
A large bulletin board is mounted on a wall here.
A fine marble chessboard with ivory and ebony pieces is set here.
A steward of the Valar stands here, ready to assist you into a room.
Artaher the Elf, wielding a bastard sword, is standing here.

*>emote whispers sharply: i should eat you
Ok.

*>rest
You sit down and rest your tired bones.


*>
You stop resting, and stand up.

*>
Artaher says 'you're not a troll, you're a hobbit'

*>
Artaher says 'I think you have an identity crisis'

*>emote whispers sharply: Oh, yes you're right, I often forget myself in these halls
Ok.

*>
Artaher nods in agreement with you.

*>Arglebargle, glop-glyf!?!

*>
Artaher says 'well trolls are quite similar to hobbits'

*>
Artaher says 'so I understand'

*>
Light gradually filters in, proclaiming a new sunrise outside.

*>emote whispers sharply: we are both ferocious
Ok.

*>emote whispers sharply: I can be an animal sometimes

Ok.

*>
You are already standing.


*>
Your vision gets troubled a while...
When you come back into reality, you find yourself like a new-born babe.

*>315/315 hit, 100/100 mana, and 173/225 moves.

*>
Warning, metamorphs are not saved.

*>
You grin evilly.

*>
Artaher chuckles politely.


*>
You failed. 
You exhausted yourself trying to remember who or what you were!

*>[return]
You return to your original body.

*>rest
You sit down and rest your tired bones.


*>210/210 hit, 82/82 mana, and 67/107 moves.


*>emote whispers sharply: That always hurts a bit
Ok.

*>
Artaher comforts you.

*>
Artaher says 'try sundeath sometime'

*>
Artaher says 'hurts a bit more'


*>emote whispers sharply: yeah i heard that sundeath can really HARDEN someone's personality....
Ok.

*>
You snicker softly.

*>
Artaher says 'I don't get it'

*>emote whispers sharply: trolls turn to stone, blah, elves and there intellectual humours

Ok.

*>
Artaher says 'yes we're a witty bunch'

*>
Artaher waves.

*>
You wave.

*>A steward tells you 'Since you are retired, rent is free'
A steward stores your stuff in the safe, and helps you into your chamber.

[Connection lost]

THIS IS A GREAT EXAMPLE OF ROLE-PLAYING, TRY IT, IT IS FUN!

I don't know what the is to flame about, I am sure someone will think of something to yell at my poor hobbit self.
Treastin2001-09-17 05:39:34
Except my horrid spelling and grammar.
Ramangth2001-09-17 06:38:33
Was pretty neat, actually.

bin Laden to Sh2001-09-17 22:28:40
Come sit on my lap sugarboy.
Bin Laden2001-09-18 01:11:22
Hey wannabe from previous comment! This is not joke time. Come Afganistan and
fight if u're such a brave man. And bring all your lab here!
Wryak2001-09-18 10:20:53
This log was SO much more entertaining than all of Einalem's logs together.
Artaher/Crackle2001-09-18 19:26:50
Ehhe, you actually posted this nonsense? Screw roleplay, you must be a rl hobbit!
Treastin2001-09-18 21:43:24
Congradulations to all who found the time to flame this, you must feel good about yourselves, better yet, go back on MUME and pk and take out your anger, and leave it in the game. Ramangth, thanks for the positive comment and Wryak too i think....
Turkletwat2001-09-18 22:38:27
I'm POSITIVE this log wuz a purty stoopid stoopid thing to post. Hope that makes ya feel better.
Artaher2001-09-18 23:08:00
Sorry, I thought it was generally understood that this is a flame site, and that flames are the default response to anything posted here. :) But what annoyed me (slightly) is that you took what was to me just a normal stupid 30 second conversation and proclaimed it as an example of 'roleplay'. Einalem's posts are also (for somewhat different reasons) grating to me, and I think to a lot of other people, but not necessarily because we're 'anti-rp'. I have some strong feelings on this subject, which I might get around to writing about as a new thread on elvenrunes or something. (I think just about anything would be better than the terrorist threads there now)
Bin Laden2001-09-18 23:08:02
prievous comments wasnt me! i swear!
George W Bush2001-09-19 00:37:31
I'll crush you Bin Laden! It was you! You will get for this! For this cowardly acts you will be executed! And last : God bless America!
Bin Laden2001-09-19 02:14:17
GODDAMIT I WET MY PANTS AGAIN!!!!
Treastin2001-09-19 02:19:05
Grrrr, Arthar, i said it was an example of roleplaying, why must you take a good think and dump your issues on it. I didn't say this was the only way, or THE WAY to do it. I was being very pleasent about this, just a friendly log, not meant for LEGENDS like you. So back off, I don't need your crap and nobody else does too.
Treastin2001-09-19 02:19:42
BTW, IT'S JUST A GAME!
Artaher2001-09-19 03:25:04
That's better, feel the cleansing power of the flame, muahaha...erm, anyways I don't have any problem with people rping however they like. As for issues, the only one I have is with being labeled as a non-rper if some types of rp don't appeal to me (namely the over-self-conscious type). If you feel dumped upon, my apologies. Sometimes innocents suffer when I vent my thoughts.
Treastin2001-09-19 06:26:15
Oh crap, I just realized you were the other guy in the hall. Damn it, sorry, I wasn't calling you a non-rper. I was actually commending you for playing along with my boredom, was glad to see someone going along with my nonsense. *slaps self several times*
