What's on your mind?

I was trying to develop some decent character named Brice, some detective, possibly living in a big city in the 80s or 90s, who would need to get some help from another character under somebody else's control to help him solve one or more cases if possible. The idea was to get it ready to start some detective like roleplay, perhaps a light one or why not? We could make it even darker than any existing Batman's story. When I felt my character was kind of ready "to hit the streets" I found out that's the kind of roleplay people don't find interesting. In another words it doesn't seem to be popular online. Sadly this is the only kind of roleplay I could post more than twice on a single roleplay thread, it could be my forte but it looks like I commit my creativity to a long forgotten genre...

Since I'm not an English native speaker, posting a character's profile, background story and current environment isn't that easy for me so I had to make some serious effort to get as far as I could there just to suddenly learn that there's no chance I can develop such story at all. It's frustrating even if it is stupid to get frustrated by letting go some non commercial story and character.
