This is the biggest problem with being a B.igB.ad.E.vilG.uy player.

A. Everyone else wants to be the hero against your insurmountable odds.

B. They never want to see the consequences of their actions.

and C. They never want to play more than one person at a time, whereas they want me to juggle 15+ enemies at a time to throw at them.

I’m just learning the ropes to this Tumblr-thingywhatsit, but I’ve been roleplaying and GM-ing for a fair stretch of time, now, and I’m aspirant that I can find suitable opponents among who this site has to offer. After almost a year on deviantArt, I’ve still yet to be beaten in any given situation.

If you claim your character is the former, but have them do the latter? Even after the pervert she’s facing would’ve gotten a “quiet girl” to put him through a wall? Yeah, I don’t see ‘tough girl’, I see ‘enabling enabler who enables’ … and/or a few other adjectives that aren’t fit to use on tumblr.

Look, I get it, okay? Sometimes you lose interest in an RP partner. Sometimes you get wrapped up in a certain plot or thread, and things fall by the wayside. But when you RP with someone a lot and tell them they’re a close friend, they start to believe you, and it hurts when you suddenly stop RPing with them or talking to them OOC. Friendship isn’t something you can just pick up and drop as it suits you, and if I’m really so disposable to you, we were never really friends.

Just… no. Can we not? If the character is an ass-kicking, tough-as-nails, emotionally secure type as a guy, then he should be an ass-kicking, tough-as-nails, emotionally secure type as a woman, too. NOT some weak and weepy bit of tissue who has to cling to every male she meets. It’s insulting. Especially when the RPer is female. Tough characters can still cry or be vulnerable without them being developmentally lobotomized. Ugh.

(Trigger warning: suicide.)

I play a mentally ill character on a site with mostly great members - but there’s this one member who is completely insensitive about mental illness, IRL and online. Whenever our characters interact with each other, she drops it because my character is unsatisfactory. And then at one point, we were talking about our characters’ plans for the future, and she said, “so when does [character] kill herself because it seems like something she would do.” Just like that. Followed by an “xD.”

It pissed me off. Big time. I haven’t experienced most of the problems my character experiences personally, but there are other people who have on that site and we know because it’s a very tight-knit community and we trust each other. She said that knowing it was impossibly rude and insensitive and a potential trigger. I just really hope she never comes across a person like that in real life. I try to avoid plotting with her as best I can, now. And that isn’t hard because she refuses to plot with my main character because “lol too depressed.”

And before you say whether or not you’re interested, let me detail that it’s dominance-and-submission themed, X-rated, caters to my personal kinks, and features your favourite childhood characters being shoehorned into a ridiculously OOC situation.  I have it all planned out; I just need another player.

…

I have nothing against smut, but no.  Just no.

— This annoys me a lot. People hollow out a canon character and add their own personal quirks (Often a thinly veiled self-insert; wherein I feel more like I’m role playing with a socially awkward 16 year old girl than a 2000 year old nation) to this shell to suit the character more to their needs.
Creating a good OC is ridiculously hard work. Please don’t downplay how hard it is to make a brilliant OC but carving out a character to basic personality design and still USING the character design but by adding different ‘quirks’ you are somehow an OC.

Especially if you still try to argue ‘canon’ aspects of your character; please respect the difference between an altered character and an OC, considering the effort it takes to make OC’s.

Half the fun of the character is supposed to be that no one knows who he really is! Tons of potential gets killed because muns have to show off how clever they are by having their characters magically know his true identity. Why not skip to the third act of a movie or the last chapter of a book while you’re at it? Spoilsports.

There’s always the self proclaimed leaders of loose roleplay groups who are literally almost never present and when small or big fights break out amongst the group, they administrate nothing. Why have the position at all, then? And when they come back and discover stuff has happened, they completely ignore it.
