Without the existence of this site, there's a good chance I wouldn't have got a C in my English GCSE.

Let me explain why. Part of the English GCSE is a roleplay. Due to my experience playing other characters in the RP section, my skills improved suffiently to be able to get a C (or B) at this part of the coursework. Also, it improved my creative writing, so that when it came to that part of the coursework I had a large store of ability and experience to draw upon. In addition, visiting forums (this was the first I joined, but not the last) improved my writing skills immeasureably.

The other forums I later visited then honed my debating skills, which I used during the exam...

Now everyone knows why I am a jerk at times with grammar errors and "leet speek". The more you write in a proper format the easier it is to do so when you need it. I have been helped a lot with board writing.

I agree, now I'm teaching primary school kids (7 year olds) and we do a lot of story telling and my experiences here have helped me teach it and give them the enthusiasm to write fantastic stories. Thanks

I've kinda faded out of RPs across the internet, but the time I spent on the few I actually participated in has helped with my writing. And seeing how people keep getting in trouble for spelling/grammar, I've learned their mistakes and have become a human spellcheck.

Not to mention the friends I've met here.
