Pretty much it.
Follow these quick and easy steps to starting a storyline.

1)Remember to use punctuation and correct grammer! Very important! The occasional typo or mess-up isnt that big of a deal...just dont be mog.
2)Pick a setting, doesnt matter where. Could be a tavern in freeport, or the middle of nowhere. Or pick an event, like an exploration of a mysterious cave by a group of adventurers. Just pick something. For the most part, the only restriction is it has to be EQ based. If you want to start something up that ISNT EQ based, talk to the mods. Just click on their name and send them a private msg.
3)Introduce a charachter, make him seem alive, give him thought, goals, emotions.
4)If the setting or event sounds interseting, people will take part in a role and further the plot. If someone starts to take the plot in a completetly different direction then you had planned. PM them (its one of the little buttons at the top of their post) and talk to them about it.
5)Any other questions will probably be answered in the sticky tthread up top. Read through it before making something first.

Thats about it, Have fun!
