lol. Sure. It explains it on the site, but I can explain it here too.

Yes, literate roleplay is when each person posts something on a forum and it ends up being a story. But literate roleplaying is also pretty advance. Each post you make should be at least a paragraph long at the shortest, and you make sure to go into great detail. It's all in third person, so no "I walk over and smile at you". None of that. It would be "The young girl walked over and smiled at the demon boy." Stuff like that. And no ** for actions. We use full sentences, and quotation marks for speaking " ". It may sound overwhelming, but it's mostly for people who enjoy writing a lot. ^^

Oh, I've seen things like this online before, the results anyway, as well as having done it before in a verbal format (generally you do sentences there).

With the right players it works great, toss in a bad apple and it rots quickly (or becomes highly comedic... depending on the saving rolls each of the other writers makes).

Sounds like fun, I don't know if I will find much time to do it, But I will try XD.
Sometimes you just gotta pull out the stops give it your all and know that you will come out the other end alive, well, and ready for the next challenge. 
I'm still waiting for the next one.

rpol.net is actually the best play by post website I know of. 

Free form is fun, but I like to go after that fancy armor and amazing sword that does 20d6 damage. 

You can make NPCs and there is a dice rollers all kinds of stuff that normal bboards don't have.
