Agreed. I actually find there to be something weird about romance RPs, to be honest. I'd much rather write my own characters becoming romantic in a story than role-play that with another person.

I'm quite resilient to physical pain. Maybe because I am so clumsy I have built up a bit of resistance or something, I'm not sure. If I had to choose I'd go with the time I badly sprained my wrist after falling down the stairs. Well, I say fell down. It's more accurate to say I fell off the...

Yeah, there's a reason I don't really dip my toe into fandom Rps anymore.

I have a few people on a permanent no RP list. There's that guy, a paedophile, a guy who faked being suicidal in order to get me to reply to his posts and a bunch of people who while didn't do that much wrong in comparison did sort of (unintentionally or otherwise) drive me away from RPs due to...

Another player and I had a rather public falling out. I made them co-mod of an RP I was running and they went mad with power. Later down the line they mocked a friend of mine that had died, and sent another person in that RP elderly porn over Skype.

I'm TB which can mean two things. Total Bullshit or Trans 'n Bi

I stopped running a D&D game of almost 2 years for a really similar thing. Character beat an NPC unconscious, proceeded to try and violently rape her and when I (the DM) told him no it started a huge argument in a public place. Kicked the guy in the end but the damage had already been done. He...

Northern Ireland is such a small county compared to the US so like try to imagine all the crazy in the US contained in one, much smaller place.

Northern Ireland. The Republic of Ireland (South of Ireland) just passed abortion a few years back (after a dentist died giving birth to an already deceased fetus), and equal marriage fairly recently. The North will probably never pass either given that one of the ruling parties is, like I said...

My country is both very racist and theocratic. The ruling party is basically a hate group.

It's illegal to do a lot of things in my country as it's a theocracy. So a lot of "Anti-Bible" is banned.

In my country it's illegal regardless of circumstances with women having to travel abroad in order to terminate a pregnancy. All the reasons against seem to be "God said so" when that's absurd, especially given that the people pushing this policy are mostly middle-aged men.

1. Die Hard 2. The Muppet's Christmas Carol 3. Elf Home Alone is up there too, but as I've grown older and a bit more cynical I've noticed one or two pretty disturbing elements that have kinda taken the fun out of that film for me. That isn't to say I don't enjoy it anymore, I really do just...

This. Especially when players do it out of spite. I've had my fair share of vanguard characters, sadly. Edit: For those unfamiliar with the term, a vanguard character is when somebody's character in a tabletop game (most notably D&D or Pathfinder) is killed and the player takes it so badly that...

With all this talk of people hating forced romance I am reminded of another pet peeve of mine. Now, obviously I hate forced romance too (especially when one of the players isn't into it) but I was once in an RP where two players were going for a romance angle. However, these two characters were...

I've seen actual edgy characters and in fact, when running role-plays I link the worst example of this as a "what not to do" guide. A lot of my OCs tend to me morally ambiguous. From the vulgar "scavy" turned merc motivated by love to the spy who swapped sides and wants to redeem the name of...

This is especially true if your character is an OC. People just assume every OC is automatically a self-insert when they're really not. The only time I've used self-inserts has been for joke/shitpost characters.

I can be really petty as a GM, but I don't let it get in the way of the story. Instead, I use it to my advantage in storytelling. Latest example had a self-insert character who was a giant robot who made other robots to fight for him. He wrote all these posts about how his robots easily hacked...

1. Romanticised abuse or romanticised trauma. Suicide Squad did it and that was one of the worst movies I've ever seen. 50 Shades of Grey does it in the book but it was thankfully taken out of the movie. There's nothing to romanticise, and if you try to romanticise it then you have no...
