At least one thread with every person in the site hehe

Um. Usually 2-3 per character at a once but this new site I'm on is more linear so I'm comfortable with one per character at a time there. So it really depends on how many characters I have but I'd say usually north of 100? I have about 30 characters on one site (90ish threads) and currently 14 on the other but one is so brand new I haven't started him a thread yet so 13 there so yeah north of 100.

And both these sites are relatively new in my life I usually have 50-60 characters per site. So it can get to be north of 200 ...

Three.

i like to have at least one per character, but if the muse is particularly high, i am alright boosting that to at least three for specific ones.

i don't like to overwhelm myself because if i end up sitting on too many replies, i am going to be stuck in that trapped sort of feel where the weight is too heavy and all of the unwritten posts are suffocating me... and then i just don't reply at all (ehe...) so, ya.

i also don't like keeping my partners waiting super long for me, so i try to be reasonable about what i know i can handle and when.

back when i was much younger, i was able to take on like 5-10 threads with ease the perks of having a lot of free time with not much other hobbies other than writing. but these days it's like 3-4. maybe 5-6 if i'm REAAAALLLLY super excited to play a character/if the plots are suepr intriguing enough to be 200% invested

50 - how many hours I work a week

Rn i work 50 hour weeks lmao

more than i intend to or think i’m in. since not everyone replies at the same time, i always feel like im in very few threads, when the reality is i could be in between 5-10 threads at once. in the past i really did have a million threads going on it felt like, but this was way back in the day before alerts and tag channels were a thing so it was easier to lose track of current, active threads. esp back in the days when it was one account-per-person and not per character.

i like to try doing 1 thread min. to 5 threads max. per character at a time. i'll have more if the extras are comm. threads or something quick and easy to reply to.

sometimes i'll be a goober and i'll tackle more for people if i'm really into threading with them / our plot(s).

usually i shoot for 2 to 4 threads per character, but if the character has a lot going on, i'll do 5. but 5 is pushing it for me considering i'm illiterate.

As many as people want to give me, honestly

In practice that translates to as few as one or as many as ten, depending on character

I'm a terrible offender of simply having a pile of threads that build up like a mountain-- I do believe that I need to learn how to cut back and actually finish threads. I'll write as many threads as people want to give me, though. It feels like it would be smarter to have a thread limit, but yes I fall victim to I'd like to make it a goal to have a thread with every person on a site if I could help it.

...so the goal is more completed threads, but in practice, I'll thread with anyone who wants to thread with me and will never say no. Just please excuse that I'm not the fastest RPer out there, and it's getting worse with being a working professional.

But in practise, there really isn’t a hard limit, it depends on the content and the direction of a thread, as long as I made a solid timeline, I can manage . I can deal with continuity confusion for the sake of having a good time writing with others, as while I don’t tend to seek more threads with a character after one or two, if someone asks me, I’ll all for it. I like writing with all sorts of people, I just gotta keep caught up with my note-taking for most part and accept that RP isn't about being perfect anyways

a ridiculous amount. but i know i can keep up with them even if i get piled with replies at once since i do a lot of writing at work.
