I was just in the middle of writing up the second section on my guide to writing improvement, when I realized that something that helped me a great deal in my ability to form characters and have them really feel natural and like real people in their environment is that, in the period where I was practicing my writing skills, I spent a fair amount of time in the role play section on forums sites.
At the bare minimum, having a role play section in the author's section is something I think could be a big help. Most forums do this sort of thing just for fun, but it actually can be a valuable exercise to improve a writer's skill in my opinion. If we had a section like that and could gear it a little more toward the direction that actually would help a writer improve then I think it could be a definite benefit to the community.
The RP category is the only real forum-appropriate writing lab subject I can think of unfortunately, wish I had a little more to the pitch in order to make this section seem like something harder to mistake for some kind of game. (although, gamified teaching actually is the best way to learn.)
