I do not like having to cater to a partner's fantasies of mindless romance for the sake of it. It takes time for people to form relationships and bonds. Especially if the two characters come from a very different background, roleplay will have troubles and confrontations.

It's so weird that I cannot put it here sadly.

I don't have to be friends with my RP partners or talk much OOC. I actually do not like talking OOC much if it's not necessary. Usually, how we RP together, what we do in the world, how we interpret things is communication enough for me. So for me someone who is focused on the RP and not trying...

The one thing I like about RPN compared to some alternative mediums is you do not have to bend the knee to anything you do not want in your RP so long as you go about it in a proper manner. First though, determine if it's a core-issue or just a tertiary one with the character in question. What...

Lots of genuine talent is wasted on roleplay forums. Like people with actual genuine talent and the ability to weave interesting narratives and amazing characters.

See, here is where I agree with you. In peoples own roleplays, they can construct whatever reality they want. If they want a medieval aesthetic, or perhaps even historical medieval times with some major alterations to allow for more representation, then that's fine and I encourage it. My stance...

I'm a lesbian. Thanks for (not) noticing. I don't make a show of it and veer towards rationality in my opinions rather than believing my own life is the universal truth. Usually it's the LGBT crowd making everything about them in any space that is accepting of us (give an inch take the whole...

I don't want to talk about him too much. It was traumatizing, but I need to tell everyone there is no shame in getting help. The worst player I ever met is also the best writer I've met. He has influenced my own style to a ridiculous degree and sometimes I shamelessly draw inspiration from him...

I'll give this a serious response. You are correct that technically it won't change much. I imagine a lot of people in straight relationships are likely in relationships with bisexuals who will never let it be known they feel that way. The conflict might begin to arise though if that sexuality...

I'm going to step on a lot of toes, but usually if someone is RPing a trans character and is very heavily invested in such things it generally will imply they perceive characterization far different than myself and what I value in characters. This usually extends further outwards to...

Is it really that hard to wrap your head around that a player might want to do a hetero m/f pairing with no trans or bisexual pairing? At that point, it's pretty clear you don't care about your partners intents and wants for the RP. I don't do pairings with trans characters. When people try to...

I use to think goblins were only evil and RP'd as such in a RP server I use to frequent. But then I met the sweetest goblin who became my friend... then she poisoned me a few weeks later... :(

Browsing this thread. :P

The opinion you share is clearly the main issue I have with many people and their perceptions on worldbuilding and characterization. I am critiquing how people portray and include groups that were considered outsider and outlier groups - not suggesting the notion that these people did not exist...

We can look at genetics if historical themed or inspired is a bit too much for you. So, when people reproduce, they pass along certain features. Two light skinned people reproduce, you produce a light skinned baby. Two dark skinned people reproduce, you produce a dark skinned baby. Intermixing...

I respectfully, but strongly disagree. The interpretation of 'pasty white people' being boring and flavorless is a problematic line of thinking. Without dipping into my individual creations and concepts, let's look at history. One has a rich selection of different European powers to inspire...

I've always become irritated when I try to set up a game with a tight, cultural theme, but it gets disregarded in favor of a rainbow mish-mash of characters who do not resemble the theme. Some major examples include trying to run a setting that is soundly European but a person wants to play a...
