the idea is to just go with the story, as long as you dont make yourself god-like or control other peoples characters without their permission, you'll be fine

I felt the same way, but the best thing to do is just dive into it (preferably a less action-driven one). It's a lot of fun once you get into it.

The thing is, just assume that you're living in the RP world. You can do any (sane) thing you want, but you will take the reactions. It's that simple to me. If you slap somepony in a RP, then don't blame them if they slap you back.

I actually never roleplayed, even once... I don't really know much about roleplaying, nor the fun it may cause...

@concord: It is amazing if the unified preformance is chill amongst everypony. If you wish to try, I should be getting free soon since my Speech class ends sooner then my other classes. with this out of my way It shouldn't get in the way of my writing resuming writing a novel+ fanfiction i just started working on.  Perhaps you can be my Pupil Rp pony!! lol maybe not ^^, there are probably better then me around especially when it comes to the pony world.

@ lost: You never know until you try!! if your look'n for a partner I might offer my hooves to your cause! hazah~
