braggingrights

[delaree]
I've rped for years with so many different people, and never once have I had this much fun doing it, or felt this close to my sl partner that I could share any idea with them. It amazes me more and more every day how our first two kids just fell for each other. We set them up as best friends and they took control of everything from there. It wasn't suppose to work out that way, she had her heart set on someone else, and he had no intention of settling down. Then it hit them fast and hard and every time they're around each other they understand one another in a way I can't even comprehend.

Honestly, it baffles the mind.

Then your girl came in and saved my other boys life. He's still scared and moves at the speed of a turtle crossing the road, but they connected somehow. For the first time in his almost... year long existence, he has someone he can really talk to about absolutely anything. You save my brain from wanting to shut down when he's keeping all his emotions held in, because he hardly does it anymore.

I'm just so thankful. Despite people giving us a hard time through all of this, I wouldn't trade it, or them, for the world. They grew organically, fell in love with each other, and I love all four of them more and more every day.

I can't wait to see where they take us next. :[

here's a weird one: when people do the whole "sex is part of life, IT HAPPENS, so i refuse to fade to black" thing.

listen. i write adult scenes. depending on the characters they can be interesting to write, sometimes (not ALL the time, but sometimes) necessary to spurning plot or conflict, if that's the nature of the line and you're writing with someone who knows how to tactfully negotiate that kind of scene. but they're not for everyone; some people are just happier to fade to black. if you feel guilty enough about writing adult scenes that you have to justify it by tacking a self-righteous disclaimer onto your advertised willingness to do so, then maybe you shouldn't be writing adult scenes. or if you're really just in it for the are pee poontang, maybe you should just say so instead of being evasive little e-bullies. i ask you, rp naturalists, where is your bulletpoint of, "i do write bathroom scenes. it's a natural part of life, SHIT HAPPENS, so i refuse to omit it." if being true to human nature and function is so important to you, and we have a storyline, i expect to get posts like this:

"mikaela's stomach had been in knots since the car rolled into the driveway. her anxiety over meeting tristan's family, coupled with his mom's purportedly infamous spicy black bean soup (she'd foolishly requested seconds, in the interest of making a good impression) left mikaela with a tumultuous case of indigestion, the likes of which could only rival her love/hate relationship with thai food. pardoning herself from the table amid his brother's longwinded recap of j.v. semifinals, she absconded to the upstairs bathroom and locked herself inside, barely getting her panties past her knees before her bowels gave way. 'ohhh god,' she groaned, a patina of perspiration coating her furrowed brow as she endeavored to poop as gently as possible, biting her knuckle to keep from crying out any louder as her colon strained against the volume of the load. the relief that flooded through her as her asshole spasmed to signal its finish was soon displaced by panic, the telltale odor of her body's betrayal hanging thickly in the air."

i could easily continue, but i think you get the gist. quit being e-sex supremacists.

you know, i'm so sick of hearing you're bitching about her to everyone BUT her. and in the process, implying you have a problem with me too. either own up to the fact that your character and the other weren't compatible, or grow a pair and confront the right people.

Heeeey, Wiki Design Snatcher. Not really a big deal, but, you realise you missed a few spots, right? Dark red with a primarily light blue and grey scheme isn't really working for you.

EDIT My codes too? I lol'd.

If a roleplayer in your community draws art of one of your characters for free, there is one correct response. That is "thank you".

The following are not acceptable responses:

1. "So, when are you drawing me more art?"

2. "Thanks but I don't really like your art style."


You get to complain about the art style or ask about when you're getting more RP art when you are PAYING the artist in question. If it's a gift, say thank you and leave it at that.

I wonder if this is really the place to do this. I guess it is, since it's a rant and I can't do anything about it. A friend of mine and I mod the British Lit RPG game here on insanejournal ([info]britishlit). We have a bunch of players and everyone is getting along. Things were going well, until a player went inactive.

Now, I've modded games before and I've been in enough games to know that when a player is inactive for over two weeks, they're going to stay inactive and shouldn't get their panties in a bunch when they're swept. y/y? I'm not even the type of mod who just sweeps without notice either. I instant messaged and emailed warnings (A WEEK IN ADVANCE, mind you) that she was on the list and should post within a week to guarentee that she wasn't swept. She did not. So, as with any growing game where you want to make sure characters are available, we swept her and her two characters.

Less than two days later, we get a link on one of our game info pages telling us to check out a forum. Someone had ripped off our idea. So, we visited it and looked around, and all of our info (word for word, clearly copy and pasted) had been stolen. This included my graphics that I made, our premise, our clubs list, our roommate pairings, our everything. And come to find out, she'd stolen two applications from players at our games and used them as her own in the forums.

I wont name names, but I'd just like to give a little linkage to the forum to back my claim up. It really bothers me because I took alot of time and effort to think up/put it all together and it was very blatantly plagarized. I know its the internet and I shouldn't get all upset, but still. It's just super annoying, especially since there's nothing I can do but spam her inbox.


The forum (here) is a bit hard to navigate, but let me give you some helpful linkage.

Forum Rules
Forum Premise
Forum Clubs List
Forum Applications
Forum Character List

MY Characters list
MY Rules
MY Application
MY Premise

The applications she stole:
Forum Wendy // Real Wendy
Forum Laurent // Real Laurent



It really sickens me.

Now, these are so incredibly bad that I wanted to stab a pencil in my own eye while making them. It can't be helped though, since the only video I could find to cap from was tiny and Kat is still gorgeous, despite the awful awful quality. And I enjoy iconing her.

... and I couldn't think of anyone better to do when I wanted a break from cleaning my apartment and studying for class tomorrow. So.

It's actually very refreshing, and very adorable to play the guy who's in love with someone who's in a very loving relationship, and has no intention of breaking up. Especially when the other guy actually loves him back, but my guy never knew it until now that he's unavailable. I mean, honestly? They're so cute, and I don't usually like cute anymore. At least there's a legit reason to have angst, rather than some random bullshit to throw their way. And it's a friendship line, still. Friendship lines are hard to come by, pff.

1. For the first time in a long time I'm actually excited about a brand new character I'm going to pick up. I've been wanting to pick her up for several months now but I'm just getting around to it. Unfortunately my timing sucks because while she was practically unheard of six months ago, when I first started wanting to play her, she's going to end up becoming a huge trend. I guess this is going to sound riduclous, but I sort of enjoy playing characters not so commonly played by others. (I know Taylor Swift is now, but she wasn't when I first started playing her, in my defense.) I really want to pick up this new character but I know she's going to become this huge trend so I'm a little less excited about it than I want to be.

2. If you love a TV show, a singer, a hobby - that's awesome. But that does not mean that all your characters, especially different characters, love it too. IC > OOC. I've been seeing that a lot lately.

Seeing a person, one of your favorite partners, be active someplace else but not with you. Jealousy is a bitch and a half.

But you know, people go where they have fun, right?

like a lot of vents on this page, i just really miss rp being fun for me. i miss being so excited about it that i couldn't wait to sign on and check my notifs and FP. back when i didn't have to force myself to comment people and reply to threads because i have no inspiration and nothing to work with.

im not saying it's everyone else's fault, but i think all my writing partners have either gotten tired of me, or too comfortable with everything for it to have the excitement of being new anymore. i know how you're going to play this, i know how it's gonna turn out in a week and that just takes the fun away. please be less predictable.

and it's so hard finding new people to write with who will be creative and mesh well with you. im thinking it's time to pull a madonna and "reinvent" myself anon and start all over again.

I'm annoyed that I didn't go through with my application at a community. I'd like to play the character I made, but his PB is taken.

This normally wouldn't bother me, but, checking the other person's userinfo - that journal has only ever posted one comment, which is likely the application. And has posted one entry - probably the required first entry. They have only one icon. Which leads me to believe that they are all kinds of inactive.

With my luck, this person is either a friend of the mod or will update just before the limit. Oh well.

how bullshit entries with links, shout-outs and sPaRklY text get more comments/attention than those who actually put thought and substance into theirs, lame.
