Best mac feature EVAH ---> apple+f omgz... it's like... god on a stick >w>
so 'm sitting here in study hall. n' I gots no homework handy. So since I have my compie with meh (who needs a name) I figures wut the heck, let's pretend we are writting an important essay or sumwhile while we infact are writting an LJ ENTRY. hootah for me-hah >w<
welps. I still have a little while being here so I shall talk about something that I like to ramble about. Like how to RP online >w> I haven't done this is the past couple o' years, and lately this person I used to RP with has been talking to me. But I really really really am annoyed by the use of action quotes and his eternal arsenal of tragic, mighty, unbeatable characters.
personally I prefer to RP on a paragraph per paragraph basis and well planned stories, normally extremely character oriented. Rarely is there a case in my good RPs where the world must be saved or anything like that, and never is there a pre-set plot. Just a decent layout of the environment ('they are in high school' or in the case of RPs that include magic, that the laws of magic are well established.) n I loves romance >w< since I have none in my life, I normally kill for a good romantic or friendly RP. They make me smile :D. And I don't want to suggest that plot-oriented and 'save the world' RPs aren't good, cuz trust me, they can be great x3 but I just like seeing my character make a difference and being able to make them real :3 (n 'm a girl. so nu wonder I love romance >w<)
What I truly don't enjoy is this... 'god-modding' I guess you could call it (I hate using forum terms D<) business. And character that are incredibly powerful and unbeatable and that make my characters seem like wimps. Characters are like people = they have flaws, they make mistake, they are not absolute, and they certainly have some emotional maturity.
Like... this kid's character who is some mighty 1000ish year old demon who "grew up on hate" but was raised by humans and is willing to die to save the witches. wtf. The character has no depth, hits on EVERY ONE OF MY CHARACTERS (including the 10-year-old) and like... wtf. I already made one of my character fall in love with him, but she's all "wtf I've known him for 2 days" as any decent girl would be and his character instead of pursuing her and trying to convince her... goes off to hit on the 10-year-old. No wait, that's right, he used his magical powers to make her 13-years-old, that makes it so much better ¬¬
ahhhhhh study hall ended =/ but I will keep this going later >w> must...finish...ramble!
[EDIT]
So continuating... in a good RP you do not control other people's character, or have 'magic' that can affect them unless you've cleared it over with the RPer. And never, EVER make the mistake of 'well, we'll make the world rules as we go along" specially with people like this kid. He made 'heal' an element and then two days later when I brought another character in and made up Gravity element, he was suddenly a master of it. GET OFF IT DAMMIT.
*sighs* yes, I did completely stop the RP and gave him a piece of my mind when he started hitting on the 10-year-old character.
"But he just wants to get accepted" then go apologize to the actual charater that you're supposed to be with, don't try to screw a ten year old.
"he's a demon, he doesn't know love" but you said he was raised by humans... o no wait, 'he grew up on hate" riiiiight so why is he getting close to first female specimens that get close to him?
"uh... isn't there a law that says love wins over hate?" hitting on 3 women simultaneously is not love, it's being a proffessional playboy.
I can't believe this kid. I haven't spoken to him in 3 years and he hasn't improved his writting skills at all. Who writes their actions in the conditional tense ("he would swing his sword, etc)? WTF.
and yes. I am a total geek who (still) likes to RP online :D but with decent people k thanx
