Well think of it as if every member on the forums has a piece of paper to themselves, and they know that anything written on this piece of paper is directed at them. If they write on their piece of paper, then they are in actual fact, seen to be talking to themselves.
Sorry if my method of teaching is a little flawed, but I hope you understand now. ^_^ It is an unusual format but you'll get used to it.
I noticed that you have already made somewhat enemies with Gunman; don't worry about it. He was the first (and second, he was resurrected) person to die in the other RP thread "Whodunnit?" for a reason.
I was recently made the Game Master in that Thread, so feel free to join. ^_^
