rpvents Subject: ...possible name theft, wtf? Posted by: enamoured. Time: 10:08 am.

Okay, so I know what it's like to want a unique yet plausible name for a character. I first created this character a little more than a year ago, and her first name and her surname are both slightly uncommon--hell, her last name is even a variant of a more popular spelling. So can anyone explain to me why, upon checking a held/taken list, I see someone else's character with the exact same name as mine, only with a different PB? It's just entirely too weird that someone else could come up with the exact same name, and I'm starting to think that whole situation is a bit shady.

It sucks that after being inspired to create a new character and creating a history for them that I hesitate at applying to the game. I wonder is it even worth it? Because I already know that only 2 or 3 people will reply to my introduction post and nothing will come from the lines we work out. Just talk. No action. It's hard to believe that it wont happen again, after it's happened so many times already.

I wish all of you people would stop asking for a "home?" for him and fucking pick somewhere so I could play with him. I've been looking for months and every time I get my hopes up, nothing comes of it.

I wanted a certain character to be paired up with my girl. I came across two journals that played basically the same people the same way. Journal 1's icons looked like this; Journal 2's icons looked like this; I chose number one because I felt like they wouldn't judge me on how I portray my character/write. Those people just seem nicer to me now. :|

I've been fooling around with a free paint program called Gimp works almost the same as photoshop. Still prefer photoshop. Gimp is free here: http://www.gimp.org/

if your girl wasn't so boring and mary sue maybe a guy would actually stay with her. do you really expect somebody to stay interested when you can't even put any personality or effort into your character?

I love writing threads only to have them go unanswered. If you didn't want the scene, you could have just fucking said so. What sucks is to read about how you're apparently scening with someone else, though. Way to make me feel like a crappy storyline partner. If I'm boring you that much, seriously, just let me know.

I'm trying to keep as much unnecessary negativity out of my life as I possibly can, but it's difficult with an array of anon journals popping up everywhere. On that note, I can understand hating on the characters, but hating on the players is a completely different story. You all really need to take a step back from the computer and take a breather. Perhaps go outside, take a smoke break or take a trip to a nursing home - I've heard that the elderly have some wonderfully colorful stories to tell. Hell, maybe even go on a shopping spree. It may do you some good.

What happened to the passion? I mean, I may have my old man cane out here, talking about big fish stories, but I distinctly remember a time when people started threads, interacted with others and played for no other reason than wanting to play their characters. It seems like the last few months you have to beg, bribe and threaten just to get people to do what you do in RP games. In the immortal words of the The Righteous Brothers... You've lost that lovin' feeling, Whoa, that lovin' feeling, You've lost that lovin' feeling, Now it's gone...gone...gone...wooooooh.

LOL. WHAT. IS. THIS. Those characters have to be part of some ridiculous joke. They just. Have to be. I saw it talked about in RPvents the other day but hadn't seen it until just now. Wait. No. If it IS a dream, it might become the next best-selling, vomit-inducing tween book and movie seriesssssss!!!!!!!!!!!!! Brb. NaNoWriMo will have no idea what hit her.

if you're going to bitch oocly about ic business, at least get all of your facts straight first. also, if you hate a community so much, why stay? i understand that games that actually live past first adds are rare nowadays but seriously, if something that is supposed to be fun has you this upset over things that you aren't even involved in ... then it's kind of ridiculous for you to stick around. jussayin'.

Look, I like you, you're a sweet girl, but seriously? I don't want to talk to you OOC all night. I get that you're tired and have had school shit to deal with lately, and that's cool, real life is more important and I'm not going to guilt you into writing with me or whatever, when you're not up for it, but I really don't want to discuss your OOC life instead. Also, five blush faces in under two minutes? I'm impressed. Annnd I am not smart enough OOC to write a character that I would really, really like to write, and this bums me out to no end.

SOMETIMES I HATE EVERYTHING ABOUT ROLEPLAYING AND WANT TO DELETE EVERYTHING AND START OVER. I'm not the only one who does the things I am made to feel guilty for doing. i like helping my friends with their issues but for once, i'd like for one of them to help me with mine.

I hate when a character asks mine for advice about a problem, and then continues to whine to mine about said problem and make no attempt to resolve it whatsoever. Also, someone in the community I'm in is always getting pregnant or abused. Welcome to RP: EVERYTHING BAD HAPPENS HERE.

Goddammit. Stop. Using. That. P. B. HE DOES NOT FIT EVERYONE YOU FUCKING APP HIM FOR. And he certainly does not fit that character. At. All. He make get your rocks off 24/7 and all, but don't use him for that RP for that character. In fact? Stop using him period. Get a new fucking face and actually try to work with it.

i am so fed up with the insanity that is this community. i highly doubt that many people would be drunk literally every night or almost every night. first of all, i don't know how they can AFFORD it. kind of like i'm not so sure how they can afford to travel all over the place all the time. also, i get that more people play girls than guys in the rp world, but i just have to laugh at the amount of lady characters that are constantly throwing themselves at guys who are alcoholics, either self proclaimed or otherwise. in my own personal experience, it's not all that fun, but maybe that's just me!

ONE If I see another super-cute Star Wars geek Kristen Bell then I am going to have to cut a bitch, jsyk. TWO On another note, I'm a firm believer in quality over quantity. I don't want paragraphs describing your kid's cornflower orbs but some things cannot be described in a sentence. Especially since, what you essentially wrote was, 'Mary Sue was sad ever since everyone else on earth got abducted and probed by aliens'.

Unnecessary drama is is Unnecessary. For the record. The mod doesn't deserve that crap, and if you didn't get what you wanted this time around, just wait a month, things always change up. Take a breather and chill pill -- or a shot of whiskey, but stop ruining it for everyone. K? Also, tis' in poor taste to complain to the mod, nay, to harass the mod if you don't get your own way. Super bad poor taste. Go and complain on your personal OOC journal or keep it to yourself.
