Insert Witty Title here
Dear new player,
I know you're friends with one of our awesome players and that's totally cool. Your character concept is interesting, though possibly really difficult to play, and although I am unsure about it I am looking forward to seeing you play it. I also, from what I can tell by reading your application, think you have a nice writing style and could be great to write with.
What ISN'T cool is the amount of PASSIVE-AGGRESSIVE BULL-SHITE I've seen from you in the short time you've been with us thus far both in the c-box and on your application thread.
If you are going to "freak-out" everytime someone refers to your character by a pronoun you don't think applies* or anytime a STAFF MEMBER asks you to clairify something... Well perhaps you might want to rethink playing with us. We are a jovial, fairly easy going bunch of people and so far you seem to be running down that dynamic like a cheese grater.
I've not said anything yet because I love and respect your friend and don't want to risk upsetting her or making her feel like she's "caught in the middle". That said, if it continues I WILL BE SAYING SOMETHING. So, do us all a favor and FUCKING KNOCK IT OFF!
*Basically the character is TECHNICALLY an "it" (as in an actual thing/object not a really-real person) but most people tend to refer to it as "she" (like a car?) mostly just out of habit and the person keeps all caps screaming IT'S NOT A SHE!! IT'S AN IT!!!
It's really unnecessary. Especially since it's not taking place in actual game play, but rather the cbox.
edited to fix typos/errors
edit the second to attempt to clarify a point that seems to be making people 0_o and twitch with rage...
