A- Alright, hopefully I can help you out here ;] Here it goes:
Technically you 'post' exactly how you posted this, but I think what you're asking is actually how to make a Role-Play (rp) post, co9rrect? Okay, first, go to the board you want the rp to take place in (Meadows, Woods, Town Square, ect.) Then you click "New Thread" (like what you did to post this). Next you actually write out your rp.
I'm guessing you get the whole rping idea, but if not I suggest looking at another pr thread (such as me and Falsetto's) for a basic example. Now to start, I'd suggest getting an idea of what you want your character to be doing (is she going for a walk? going to class? buying something?) and start writing like it's a story.
Example: "Isabella was never the type to go dress shopping, but yet here she found herself, heading out for the store. Stupid dances. Always cramping her style.... she slung her bag over her shoulder and started down the long dirt road towards town".
That was totally just an example, but I think you get what I mean >.< Just set up a story, and go with it. Describe what your character is thinking, feeling, and what's happening around her. What's the weather like? It is warm, or chilly? Is the room loud and full of people, or quite and secluded? See what I mean? Just be descriptive. Remember, you can never write too much ;]
Now, to finish it off, leave something for someone else to reply to.
Example: "Suddenly her thoughts were broken as she heard a sound behind her. She spun around to see who was there".
Now, a basic rule of rping is that you never rp the other person's character; let them rp their own. The whole idea is to deal with how your character is reacting, feeling, or doing in response to the other character. Then the other person replies with their character's side of things. And so the story continues, and interesting things happen ;] It's really a lot of fun once you get the hang of it (which I'm sure you will)
That's really about it. I'm terrible at explaining things, so I strongly suggest looking at a real rp example as well xD Anyway, I hope I helped! And I apologize if this was too long or confusing >.<
