You know what my pet peeve is? Scrubs who don't use Comic sans because they're trash.
(I'm joking don't hurt me.)

Comic Sans doesn't show skill. it merely makes your posts harder to read. any fight won by a user of Comic Sans isn't a legit Character against Character challenge but instead, cheating by using a Difficult to read font to hide information. it is like posting white text on a white background or hiding your rules link inside a Tiny Comma.

I can assure you folks that Comic Sans will always be the bane of all spectral elephants.
It's an innate quality, or a debilitating weakness, if you're feeling simple.

THIS PEEVE OF MINE HAS TO BE ADDRESSED...
UNDERWEIGHT CHARACTERS
Before I get a shit ton of hate from you guys who have underweight characters...I'm addressing that group of characters that don't act underweight.
Yes, that group. The ones that make characters that are 6 foot tall, 100 fucking pounds and supposedly have a 'lean muscly build, chiseled chest, and rock hard-"
NO, FUCKING STOP RIGHT NOW! The...what the fuck?! Seriously!? Do you know how much a human male should weigh at 6 feet tall?! NOT 100 POUNDS! Kids that are A FOOT SHORTER WEIGH AS MUCH AS THAN THIS CHARACTER! And you expect your character to be able to take punches and jump from buildings?! No, ever heard of bone density? Ever heard of osteoporosis? LACK OF BONE DENSITY! So this character will probably break his tiny bird bone like arms trying to lift that sixty pound weapon they're swinging around! And you can use the excuse "MY CHARACTER HAS SOOPER STRENGTH"
...
Okay. Muscle weighs 3 times as much as fat. LIKE WHY?! WHY DO YOU DO THIS?! WHY DO YOU MAKE A CHARACTER THAT IS SO LIGHT THAT THEY COULD BE TOPPLED BY A BREEZE OR CAN LITERALLY MAKE ANYONE LOOK LIKE SAITAMA IF THEY HIT THIS CHARACTER ONCE! At least act as fragile as they should be! GOD FUCKING DAMNIT!
Nobody is going to call your character fat unless you specify that! So what's there to be so conscious about the character that you have to make a PENCIL! Nothing! Right! So...
Keep the weights more realistic please. 5'5 and 76 lbs will have more drawbacks than...well...what you hope to achieve with this unrealistic weight.
//RANT END//
If I offended someone, it's probably because you have these unrealistic characters. Don't be offended, I have nothing against you. Just against this archetype of...pencils. ._.

I have to agree with this. People don't want their characters perceived as fat and then end up making them too light. That person would barely be able to stand let alone do all this physical activity.

what about a character who was 5'1" and 95 lbs but was built like a sickly child?
If you read my rant...
I'm mostly against underweight characters who both appear and perform as if they are physically fit. If the character is actually a sickly child then that's fine.

i just wanted to confirm whether or not i got it Right. 95-100 lbs is Average for a Middle Schooler, which are usually in the five foot nothing ballpark. an Athletic Middle Schooler is likely 105-115 lbs. i mean, just because you are Sickly doesn't mean you can't do some physical things. but it means you are useless when engaged in melee combat with somebody of a healthier weight.. if you want to be 130 lbs and built like Saitama, make your character Roughly 5'2"ish
a Healthy Weight for 5'10" is about 200 lbs or up to 230 pounds if physically fit. so a lean, muscular 6 foot tall character should weigh at least 250-300 lbs. literally around triple the weight of the Sickly Middle Schooler.

Yeah, a 6 foot tall like extrememly muscular male should weigh around 200 lbs. Then you usually go down by 10 lbs. like 5'11 would be 190 and so on and so forth.

[SIZE= 12px]That's a shit lot of weight, mate. Unless your character is Andre the giant or something, I'd suggest toning it down extensively. They should be about somewhere close to 200.[/SIZE]

I always just search the average weight for my character's age and use that xD

i have little to say that hasn't been mentioned already, but sometimes i come across an oc in a particular fandom i'm in that is a carbon copy (personality wise) of a canon character in the fandom. maybe they have a different face claim, name, or gender but come on man. sometimes they even give them relatively similar backstories.
like, the whole point of an oc is that it is an oc.
or people that create an oc to romance a canon character but either a.) bows to that character's every whim no matter if it's against their set personailty or b.) is pretty much a genderbent version of the canon character with once again, the exact same personality.
and that is why i don't do fandom rps anymore. besides, most of the fandoms i'm in are so obscure it's hard coming across a roleplayer that's even heard about it, nevertheless is in that particular fandom.

also i can't believe people still use comic sans unironically. like you could probably write the most ground-breaking pulitzer prize worthy novella post and i'll still just be sitting there trying to avoid laughing out loud because it's written in comic sans.

Lack of basic grammar as well as double-posting.
This is not calling out anyone but this is something I find both a peeve and a problem. I understand that grammar is but a difficult skill to master, however it concerns me when I see almost little to none grammar applied towards a single post. It can't possibly be laziness because let's face it... this is RpNation. It would be a real surprise to find that people are too lazy to apply even the most basic of grammar. If that isn't the case then what would be the case worries me greatly.
Does this mean that people aren't paying attention to their English Class? Now this isn't including foreigners because it's not easy learning a language that isn't your own. This is including those who have English as a language they know well. This should be about at least 80% of RpNation. I can't expect every single Rper to basically be a master at Grammar because heaven knows I'm certainly not. If people aren't taking what they learn in school then... well school would be a waste then.
Also double posting. This one will be kept short. If your going to post, please for the love of good god, make sure it's all in a single post instead of two posts that were made in like 5 minutes without anyone else posting. That is all.
Disclaimer: Please don't be mad for those who read this. Thank you.

People who just put "magic" or something equally vague as their character's power.

On related note, "my character has every power because they are a witch/wizard" despite being like 16 and never once studying magic.

I really hate it when people whine over being told what to do, or having a small event happening to their character. Like, im playing as a Devil may Cry Boss and i temporarily disarm Dante from his currently held Blade... I get death threats, harassment and overall toxicity thrown at me from the Dante Rper.

When I'm in a superhero RP and people just go "Oh well I can do blank and your power is fucking useless!" I mean I understand weaknesses but if you have a character that controls lava and one made out of rock lava still effects rock
Maybe not as much but still.
Also people who just call other people inferior roleplayers just because they can't post 8 paragraphs of filler. I dont have time for that shit. I really dont. I make articles, collect scrap metal and work in construction for income and when i RP and write 1 or 2 paragraphs. I don't want you to say "That's all? I am putting time into a hobby that I really could be using to make money. And here they say. "Oh you are not good at RP you don't talk about "blank" for 3 paragraphs.

My response to this is - Oh you can do XX? Well guess what I can control reality and I say your character only has the power you actually put in your character sheet. If you don't like that than you can leave.

Child Mages are definitely a trope. but look at how dedicated a Child Mage must be. Most Child Mages aren't very emotionally stable and they usually depend on strong fits of emotion to keep up with the Controlled Wizard, usually eating up more energy in the process. the Primary Exceptions are the Hogwarts Students, who are Waay to Mature for thier ages but are Extremely limited in the Scope of thier Spells.

That is my response to godmodders. People who try to bend reality or free their characters from any kind of consequence. My response is essentially yeah I made this world so if I say your character doesn't have XXX power than they don't. If you [ the other person ] can't except that than you can leave.
