☀ What's your rp pet peeve?
I have many. But let’s go wit one that’s making me the saltiest lately.
Killing off your characters solely to make your RP partners emotional or to “make things intense”. I’ve killed characters and been pleased by the emotion it caused both IC and OOC, but I try to keep it to a bare minimum. I don’t see any reason to kill off a character for any reason other than “I, the character’s player, want them to die. I am tired of playing them and don’t feel like I’ll ever want to again, this feels like the best option.”
I used to not really give a hoot about this, but when not three, not four, but five characters are killed off by their players in the same span of two or three months (all in the same guild mind you), one being specifically killed off, in the player’s words, “to upset everyone”, it gets a little... tiring. People keep threatening “ooo this character’s going to die this event! ;)” I just. Roll my eyes. Please, do, go ahead, whatever will make you stop dangling a withered carrot over our heads and shut the ever living fuck up.
Death isn’t the only way to bring strife and drama to rp you twats. And mourning doesn’t have to be limited to someone dying if that’s what you’re going for. And everything, I mean EVERYTHING, loses its flavour when too much is used.
