Literacy: Typically literate. I play in adv. lit group roleplays but I find it slightly more difficult to respond with a post that big when I have only one other person to work with, so I bring it down to literate for 1x1s. I might (this is a very big might) do a semi. lit, though it requires me being in a certain mood (typically an impatient mood) considering the posts tend to fly faster that way. That said, I will only semi. with someone else capable of literacy as well (and equally impatient, most likely), considering I can be a bit of a grammar Nazi, and prefer roleplaying with individuals capable of putting a little spice or poetry into a post.
Posting: I can't really consider myself a regular here, but I will try to match your posting frequency. That said, I'm not a big fan of any more than four to five times a week. (Once to twice a day for semis). I have no preference for PMs or threads, or even email or IM. (Played a semi over MSN once. Fastest 1x1 ever.)
Romance: I'm going to be frank here: I am not a romantic. At least, not in the way most Gaian girls are. Most of you like your romance, and that's perfectly fine with me, provided there's some sort of plot carrying it forward. I'm not going to put down holding hands completely, some guys like it, but typically I find fighting for one's love, whether through guile, magic, or brute force, far more romantic, and far more interesting.
Limits: My limits are yours. Sex happens. Don't expect it not to. What you want to do with it is up to you. Same thing with swearing. If the character swears like a sailor, by all means, swear like a sailor, but keep it in character. Era-appropriate vocabulary is a major plus in my books, and you know you've always wanted to pull out those Shakespearean insults since you learned about them in middle school.
Roles: I tend to enjoy playing intelligent, dominant, ambitious characters, not as much because I share those aspects, but more because it's a lot more fun than playing a bickering, cowering toothpick of a man. Some of my characters are powerful, others struggle to be powerful. Some of them are good looking, others might not be. Some of them are calm and stoic, others are wild and impulsive. I typically do not play bodybuilders or prettyboys, because stupid characters are incredibly boring for me.
Pairings: I typically play heterosexual characters, and while Yaoi or Yuri does take a good deal of convincing, I have found both to be amusing on occasion. Want a good laugh filled with phallic references? Yaoi's the way to go. My serious roleplays, however, tend to be predominantly het.
Taboos: Anything Twilight, any band roleplay, and any bar/club roleplay is automatically out of the question, along with the vast majority of modern and school-based roleplays. In essence, I am not here simply to flirt. I want our characters to be part of a world that interacts with them. Some common exceptions to the above-listed are Mafia roleplays and Harry Potter roleplays, because those tend to have dangerous, evolving worlds.

Naturally, there are a lot more possibilities I have not listed, especially in the Fantasy section, considering the nigh-unlimited variety of pairings therein. This is more or less a taste of what I like and don't like so you get to know a little bit about me before you toss a request my way. By all means, feel free to ask about an unlisted pairing. I might bite, but I guarantee you'll like it.
