Point of View Dear people of roleplay republic, we need to have a chat real quick. I'm tired of people trying to agrue me down when I ask what pov would you prefer 1st or 3rd and they get completely shocked when I reply in paragraph form 1st and they tell me its 3rd. FALSE... Just because I chose to reply in a paragraph form doesn't automatically make it 3rd pov. To learn the difference of what POVs actually are here is a chart below. Thank you, please make use of it. |
