I looked up MySpace Adrian Monk and found two. I think I understand roleplaying, aren't these two accounts supposed to be set up as if Adrian Monk was a real person and he has a MySpace account? I can see where that would be fun, I've seen role playing communities before, one in particular was very well done, in my opinion, but I don't know, these accounts don't seem very 'Monkish' to me. I mean, we already know Adrian isn't the most computer/internet savvy person in Monkland, but there are ways around that, and suspension of disbelief and all that.
But the two that I found, they are both a bit too heavy on exposition and neither really sounds like Monk to me. And one had a background with pictures that kept changing, and I sort of find it hard to get into the right mindset for reading a roleplaying blog when there are promotional pictures, USA Network logos, and signed autographed pictures of Tony Shalhoub flashing behind the text. All the flashing is a little distracting, and didn't seem very Adrian like. Though I was flattered that one of the pictures used in the background was one of my SP Adrians. I just don't think that he would have a lot of pictures of himself in the account because he doesn't really have any pictures of himself in his home, he never looks in the mirror, he didn't even recognize his own picture on the fake ID that Leland gave him in Cabin Fever. I don't think he'd talk so much about himself, or have music playing, or changing backgrounds. He'd probably have a very basic, solid colored background with everything as even and balanced as possible, and an album of loads and loads of pictures of Trudy. He'd probably use modest, normal sized text that would be as easy to see and read as possible. He would not use multicolored, giant Comic Sans font.

That was pretty cute, though.
I mean, they were good efforts, it's still a tribute to the show and the character. But they just seemed a long long way from being in character to me, and that is the point of roleplaying isn't it? I know that the character himself is a challenge, and you already have to stretch believability to have him with a MySpace account anyway, but still, shouldn't it look and seem like an account he would have? Unless I misunderstand what the people who set up these accounts were going for, which is possible. I've never taken part in an RP game or anything, I was just going by the impressions I have gotten, admittedly from a distance.
Edited to add, I do think that this would be a whole lot of fun to do in something like MySpace, where the characters could all comment on each other's blogs and things, though I think, in order to preserve the illusion, it would be bbest of there was someway to limit it so that only the people playing the characters could comment, not just random people who pop in to want to spam or whatever. It could be fun to do, and if you could find the right people to do it, with the comments and everything, it could be very entertaining to read.
