How to do ShamChat

Choosing a Name: Whether it be for your kinky, dirty mind or you genuinely like roleplaying, name choosing is a great way for other people to decide whether they want to esc twice, or see what you have to say.

Roleplaying for the first time? Try putting in Sam, Dean, or Castiel. This will get you a feel for the site before adding anything extra. Most of the population there will stick around and see what you have to say. Who am I kidding? Nobody ever wants to roleplay. Even Sams and Deans leave on each other.

Once you get more advanced, or are more particular in your settings, try putting hs au attached to your name. You'll get the whole string of hipsters. Too much of a hipster for the typical hs au? Try college au. You'll meet up with all of the sufferers from twist and shout syndrome.

Into all of the SRP's everyone else is addicted to? Put SRP in your name and all of those dirty people will surely see what your about. The population of little girls and or nerds will all leave, but hey, you know your crowds. Another sure way is to put Lingerie in your name, or any other provocative article of clothing. If that fails, just put chained to a bed.

Want a SRP but are too embarrassed to put that name? Again, put college au. Better, put drunk at a party or another scenario like that. You can slyly build up to the action without the other person suspecting a thing.

You're a troll? Well then, I've got news for you. Any name works! Impala, triple-bacon-cheeseburger, or even Cassy-poo. Into the fine arts of comedy? Here's an Example:

This is a conversation between teen!best friend?Cas and yourself, Good Morning Vietnam.

Good Morning Vietnam: Hello and welcome to Good Morning Vietnam. I'm your host, Lucifer, and today we have a very special guest. Welcome to the stage, Castiel

teen!best friend?Cas has left the conversation.

Or

This is a conversation between Teen!Punk!Cas and yourself, Good Morning Vietnam.

Good Morning Vietnam: Hello and welcome to Good Morning Vietnam. I'm your host, Lucifer, and today we have a very special guest. Welcome to the stage, Castiel

Teen!Punk!Cas: ((Oh my god))

Teen!Punk!Cas has left the conversation.

Last but not least
This is a conversation between FemCastiel (crush on Dean) and yourself, Good Morning Vietnam.

Good Morning Vietnam: Hello and welcome to Good Morning Vietnam. I'm your host, Lucifer, and today we have a very special guest. Welcome to the stage, Castiel

FemCastiel (crush on Dean) : Hello Lucifer

Good Morning Vietnam: *motions to a empty chair next to me* please, take a seat.

FemCastiel (crush on Dean) : No *blunt*

Good Morning Vietnam: Suit yourself. How ya doin'?

FemCastiel (crush on Dean) : *sarcastic smile* Great Lucifer! Just perfect!

Good Morning Vietnam: Good to hear. So, on to the point. Every body's been wondering what your thoughts on Dean are? I mean, anything going on between you two? *audience goes "aaaww"*

FemCastiel (crush on Dean) : *rolls eyes*You know damn that I'm with Dean

FemCastiel (crush on Dean) : *damn well

Good Morning Vietnam: *smiles* Guess you have a point there kiddo. Any...Action?

FemCastiel (crush on Dean) is typing...

What not to do: You into Adam? Charley? I've got news for you. Suck it up. If you use any of these names, people assume you're an attention seeking bitch, which likely you are, who just wants to scream out in all caps YOU LEFT ME IN THE CAGE!1. Give it up. Nobody likes you.

In conclusion, your name is very important to what type of roleplay you want to do. Stay in tune for part II, how to start.
