I have thought of some things that could imprive the site
1. No chat speak when in character. I don't really care how much you use it OOC but to me, it gets quite frustrating in character
2. I think there should be a rule of at leat 3 lines per post. You may think this is hard but I have joined a game where the posts have to be at least 200 I think, words. And that is quite a bit. I know you are competent of this so I am going to do an example.
Example-
This could become
The silver stag, coat gleaming slightly in the warm sunligh cantered into the battling fields. He slid to a stop, rather than gradually stopping and smirked as he watched a cloud of dust everntually settle back down after he had dispatched it. He stamped his hoof firmly down on the dry, dirt ground and snorted to remind all around of the fight that was about to commence. He was ready, after issuing a challenge to a fellow stag. The prize in question? The other's lands and he was determined to win. He had his eyes on the prize. Now, all he would do was wait to see if the other stag would be noble enough to show his face or if he would turn out to be a coward. Either way, the silver stallion couldn't wait for the events to unfold.
Its really easy, I follow these steps.
* Expand on what you have just said
* Something just said, may remind you of something else. Write it down!
* Write about your surroundings
