Hi folks! I'm not sure about you, but I love filling out memes and questionnaires for my characters, and I just hit the jackpot, literally! The only problem is that these questionnaires are on livejournal... and that the community they come from is as quiet as the grave. However, the questions are memory'd and open to the public, so if you'd like to write for your character for days and days and days, here you go!

As for RP ideas in the community, I have been chewing on the idea of making a series of short, guided games, sort of like one-on-ones, where the poster is the mod of the session, and other members (even community moms!) can participate as players. The mod would set up the location for players to reply to, and depending on what the characters are like in that location and situation, different little stories can unfold. The job of the mod is to toss in events that jive with the character (and player)'s interests. The player's job is to interact with the scenery and prompts however their character would in order to both keep the story going and take it in new directions. Players wouldn't reply to one another, just to the mod, so that in each thread, one can read a smooth progression of events. Likewise the mod wouldn't be posting for their own character, necessarily, so much as setting the mood and background and whatever events need to happen to keep things rolling.
It's a pretty monumental project if it's going to be a long-running thing, but I thought that doing several of these over short(ish!) periods of time, where different people can make a first post to become mods (or GM's or ST's or whatever you'd like to call 'em!) would create an interesting way to roleplay within the community and get to know one another a little better!
What do you guys think? Any suggestions or ideas for such a thing?
