"I miss back when RP followed the lore [...] About things being kill on sight in Stormwind." 1) No, you don't. You miss when it was socially acceptable to bully otherwise non-problematic people as a community. Say it was IC hate only all you want, I remember the absolute malice filled harassment that the community was known for when 'enforcing' whatever lore was socially acceptable. 2) and frankly, that harassment did not match 'muh Cannon' and there's always been non cannon races in SW/OG

I just genuinely have been disappointed with the quality of the expansion. The voice acting feels abundantly fake, the cutscenes feel cobbled together, and everything feels Disney-esque. Like- Can someone tell Blizzard it's okay to have moral conflicts and well written grey areas that- oh wait. They can't write that for shit either.

I am finding myself in a situation where, among everyone I RP with, I am the only one who ever reaches out to plan anything. And when I do, I am deciding the day, the time, the theme, all of it. If I don’t, it doesn’t happen. No one ever reaches out to me, I’m always the reacher. And at this point I feel like I’m the problem, like I’m either not as good a writer as I think I am, or just plain boring. It’s gotten to my head so and that I’m just not reaching out anymore, and I’m seriously considering dropping the hobby altogether.

In my observations on this page I came to the conclusion people do have there issues, and they tend to air them out on here like it’s therapy for them. I think people have this unhealthy obsession on certain topics like child coded characters and no not trying to down play it, if they are actually committing any crimes for sure call them out on it but provide proof it’s that simple. I notice a lot of those call outs no one’s provided evidence which makes me think they are just making it up or lying for attention or clout, then we have the obvious trolls here and crash out moments.

That said I’m starting to think me leaving the RP scene had become a blessing honestly I’ve been happier since and less stressed about a hobby I loved at one point. Even though I may be gone just know I’ll continue to support RP wherever I decide to go and help the hobby grow hopefully in a more less toxic environment

[Good stories don't need to be complicated and hard to follow, nor free of storytelling tropes. Simple can be good, often better.]

I think it all depends on what you want your story to do for yourself and others. In RP if your goal is engagement, simpler is better. Personally, though I love seeing lengthy descriptive “About” sections, I will almost never read anything longer than a 3-sentence paragraph because I just don’t have the attention span or the interest. Maybe for friends but never for walk-ups. It shows me that this character is something someone really put some energy and time into, and not just some throw-away gone-tomorrow toon. But fuck that, I’m not reading their book.

Make your story as complicated as you want, but give folks a tl;dr to sink their ADHD-ridden teeth into as well! No one will likely ever want to know every little detail about your character but those little bits and bites are for you, not them.

Are you obsessed? You seem obsessed.

Team Edward or Team Jacob? Yes, I did ask that.

team neither

I resent that "adult" means "sexual" and not every other aspect of what adulthood should mean.

Adult spaces should mean I can swear and drink, and expect everyone to basic level of maturity to keep everyone generally safe.

Couple of things: I do not need to ever know what you look like, being sent selfies after 2 days is, at the very least, a little odd to me. And also, the other thing, sending me very obviously AI manipulated photos and claiming they are you is *TREMENDOUSLY* creepy, weird, sad, upsetting, disturbing, and immensely, indescribably stupid. I ran a google image search, you fucking moron, I found the picture you used as a template AND 8 other people apparently doing the same thing. Get fucked creep.

Creeps and perverts that just want ERP are destroying random world RP STILL. They seem to love targeting people with "I'd like to leave the city" in their profiles. Dragging them out to isolated zones where its now awkward for someone to just up and leave.

DO NOT FEEL BAD GHOSTING AND LEAVING THESE PERVERTS. People should always be clear about the type of RP they are looking for. There should be no "Opps sudden ERP" two to three emotes in.

Stay safe and happy pride!

my favorite interaction with a DH was one wearing reading glasses and sitting in the park "Reading" a book upside down.

Genuine question. Do Draenei count as furries? - Draenei are goats. Goats have fur. - Their skin looks smooth all over but evidence of fur is found at the edges of their hooves. - Presumably by the shape of their bodies and legs, they could potentially run on all fours. - They do have horns and thus are linked to goats. However... - Goats don't have tendrils around the neck. - Draenei have a range of tail lengths, but they don't appear to have fur on their models in that area. - Four fingers and a thumb (depending how you look at it). - Unlike goats, it's argued Draenei have either have "orbs/lacking pupils" for eyes or normal eyes. - They live for a VERY long time as the oldest race on Azeroth (before Dracthyr stole that record).

The eye rolling cringe of watching the GM of our respectable military rp guild just slice of life rp with their 3 or 4 wives while changing baby diapers instead of actually rping with their other members.

.

healer vampadin is really fucking annoying and can't take a hint

.

most RP guilds on MG suck for various reasons and walk-up RP is mostly surface level RP with no real storylines forming most of the time or people attempting to goon... I'm starting to lose hope man... x-x

Not the person still upset over Blue Goat Artist, but someone who actually does art and has a real problem with some of these artists.

Stop drawing characters in the wrong body type.

If the client sends you a reference of the character's body, that's the body.

Stop adding make up, stop changing the hair, stop changing the pronouns!

Seriously, there is style and then there's just being too lazy to actually look at the references given.

It won't kill you to check in with the client when you're unsure about something.

[there was an “alpha” vulpera who was pissing on everything to mark his territory and had multiple “breeding” mates] Do you have any idea how little that narrows it down? I'm not even making a joke, this could apply to so many vulpera, lol.
