It's my playground. I can deny your application for any reason I want.

Seriously. Any reason I want. I could suddenly decide that every person apply to my game needs to intuitively know that their font should be bright pink and sparkle and then deny everyone who doesn't do that. I would be a pretty sad little cookie and end up in the Special Corner of the internet playing with myself, but that's a completely different issue. The point still stands that there's no RP Police going to swoop down from the ether to fine me for breaking the RP Law. Because there is no law. There's 'what works,' and 'what sends your game into a tail-spin and is thus generally avoided.'

So please, for the love of god, stop sending me IMs, PMs, e-mails, smoke signals, carrier pigeons, and whatever else I haven't banned you from yet telling me that I can't do something. I can. Stop telling me I'm not 'allowed' to deny you for the reasons I've outlined. If I'm shooting myself in the foot by not letting you in the game, then that's a natural consequence I'm willing to accept. Because all other drama aside, your particular brand of bitching is hands-down my least favorite ever.

You know after you try and dictate chars to others, you do not get to whine to your friends after they find a way to do what you want, and you don't like it.

This may be just me but…

I just needed to rant. It hurts my head that all of this is one player. Sorry for the letter format. 

Darling Player, 

For the love of god and country.

If you don’t have the books don’t try to make a character based on your concept that “Hunters have dangerous jobs”. Especially when you’ve so far made three mortals and had to have your hand held through every step of the process EVERY! TIME! By more than one ST! 

Yes, darling, when you have to have three STs help you, over time, to make one mortal character because you “can’t do the math” (direct quote) you might want to give up and go back to your free-form stuff where everyone put up with your D.I.D. BS. 

In regards to your other character idea. No, if Garou mommy left behind something in your possession that just screamed to other Garou “Hay, look, KINFOLK!” you are not going to be an unaware Kinfolk. No, nope, no way. The shiny sparkly sue-mister thing you want her to have would have had her detected before she even turned 18…hell even before she turned the age of double digits. 

Oh and one more thing, dearest. If you ask one more ST to torture and rape your characters and I hear about it. I am going to lay down the fucking ban hammer on your head. Yes, rape happens IRL and in the WoD, but begging for it? Pestering STs to do it to your Cs? Might I suggest you find a good doctor and get an evaluation? 

It is people like you that make me want to find a way to FTP strangulation, because getting in my car to drive to you and hunt you down is far too much effort for your level of stupid.

Edited to fix some kind of HTML screw up.

There is nothing wrong with two characters taking several months to develop into a loving couple. In fact, it can be really fun to play out that interaction. Don't skip over everything so you can get to the lovey-dovey stuff right away. The journey is half the fun.

And for the love of god, when you're working on building a relationship like that, don't suddenly jump ship suddenly when you find someone who wants to go from acquaintances to lovers in three days. That's a really dick move, and you're going to be leaving the player of the other love interest wondering what the hell happened.

Some of us DO want to play romance, you know. It's just really difficult to do so when everyone else wants instant gratification.

So, about a year ago, a friend and I joined a game that was trying to revive itself. We enjoyed the concept, even if several of the other characters made us kind of scratch our heads — but that's a rant all to itself.
We go back and forth for a few months mostly without incident, and the board slowly dies around us. Not really wanting to give up on the SL we'd created, my friend and I continue to RP with one another unabated even when everyone else had left.

I go to log in to make a post for him today and find that my account's been wiped.
And his.
And everyone else's, along with every single post made to the board since it opened last year. Not archived, like they usually do with old threads, deleted. The only accounts still active are the admin's — who, before the wipe, hadn't logged in in about eight months? and two mods she was often known to smut with.

If she wanted to wipe the board and try again, fine, I just wish there'd been some warning so I could make my own copies of threads I'd particularly liked / would have liked to reference for continuity. Nrrrgh.

Please. I don't think that, the night after being brutally raped, a teenaged girl would find comfort in a threesome.

Even if it is her best friends being 'supportive' and proving that they still they love her as a friend.

Especially not if they're all genderswapped versions of guys who think that watching a boxing match is a way to bond. I don't know how you go from guys hanging out with boxing to girls hanging out with bad porn, but...

WHY HALLO THAR MY EXCELLENT BITCHES!
I AND THIS CRAZY PERSON BESIDE ME (emeryboard ) HAVE STUMBLED UPON A MOST EXCELLENT WAY OF RE-WATCHING BLEACH... ESPECIALLY IF ISHIDA BUGS THE ALMIGHTY FUCK OUT OF YOU.

THE IDEA IS SIMPLE.
EVERY TIME THE QUINCEY BOY SAYS "QUINCEY PRIDE" REPLACE IT WITH "GAY PRIDE" AND THE WORLD BECOMES A LULZIER PLACE.

TEST AND ENJOY.


((BTW, I DEMAND MACROS))

1- No, my priest guy, brother Markus, is not a pedophile. Can we stop with that joke already? It was funny the first time, the accusations are getting a little old now...

2- Yes, I'm a girl who plays guys most of the time. Yes, I've played ONE dude who passed himself off as a girl. One, in around ten years of tabletop gaming. No, ALL my characters are NOT sexual deviants. The crossdresser was actually completely straight, he even got married at the end of the game! Can we, again, stop with the jokes already? My own sexual orientation has nothing to do with who my characters lust for. I am not my character.

3- On that subject, I'd appreciate if you found another expression for "this is bad" than "gayyyy". What are we, twelve? Real life homosexual here, I know you don't mean anything bad by it on purpose, but it does get on my nerves. Besides, some people might be less tolerant than me by the name-calling, and you might end up hurting someone for real. Be more careful.

I actually like (most of!) these guys a lot, it's just minor annoyances. I know they're teasing me, but there are other subjects to tease me about than this one.

We get that you can't let anything go, but harassing players on a board you stormed away from is only showing how immature you are and driving players away from your new board. They're comparing notes and figuring out you're complaining about them to the each other. How about you think of other people for a change? It would totally surprise everyone if you acted like a grownup and got yourself a different attitude. Play and let play.

Trolling a board you left so you can complain to the people still on it about what they're doing is sad. Play your sparkly slut alteregos with your little group of sex starved associates and create all the self absorbed plots you want to your heart's content. Nobody you left behind cares that you've moved on. Why do you still care about what they do?

I'm working on a new RP board. It's branching into canon which I've decided to break into since I normally avoid it like the plague. I'm curious if I can get some feedback from members of this site since I trust a lot of your judgments on things. This is the first attempt I've made in a while for a Forum RP and I'm extremely nervous about it.

http://deathnotesr.proboards.com/index.cgi

I've only been working on the site itself for a half hour. If anyone would be interested in dropping some thoughts on management or anything else I'd love to hear it and appreciate any comments.

It's a OC take on Death Note. Stopping just before the end of the first season to introduce a new big bad and change the ending of that episode. I'm wanting to basically make a anime-themed RP to mostly vent on. Bringing in themes that will fit and work with the DN-verse.

Someone getting mad at me because I asked to see a sample of their writing before we got into possible plots for an RP. o.-
Is it really so unrealistic to want to see how someone writes before I waste time and effort coming up with a plot?

There is something really REALLY annoying about gamemasters who wave their E-peen about by stating just how badass their player PCs are, and who will totally kick your PC's arse if they just look crosseyed at him.

I swear, if I get the "Do you really think it's a good idea to annoy\love\flirt\paint\ignore MyPup?" statement again, I will find a way to send a punch to someone via my modem. Especially when it's not meant an advice and just a way to try and cower me into being awed of his PC like everyone else.

YOU GUYS ASKED FOR IT, SO I DID THE REST OF CHAPTER 342!

( CAT FIGHT!! (HUGE IMAGES UNDER THE CUT!!) )

Names changed to protect the wantonly idiotic.

"X enters the bar in black leathers the vest being sleeveless carrying a sachel in one hand. A small calico kitten sits on his shoulder. His pale blue eyes searches the room curiously as he walked over and sits on a couch."

English this bad makes me actually throw up in my mouth a little.

And before three of you immediately ask, no, it is his first language.

Dear You,

Your idle threats are no longer good here. Stop bitching to people about not getting your way and then threatening to leave the comm. IDGAF!!! Honestly, two weeks of your non-stop, schizophrinic, paranoid, conspiracy theorist bull shit is enough. No one is plotting against you! If you want to leave, I will no longer try to stop you. You aren't that good of a writer anyway. Sure, my writing may lack in some things, but at least I tend to learn from others, and I like descriptive details. One sentence is crap. What the hell are the other players suppose to do with one measly sentence? Sure, one sentence can have a wealth of information in it, but yours are crap!

( No one cares that you think we are all plotting against you )

Edit:  To fix a word...
Edit because LJ hates me and doesn't want to fix crap!
