  • I´m coining the terms "mystery plotting" and "hunted RPs"


    mystery plotting: when a GM blocks a character´s traits or actions over a plot reason and lacks any explaining on said plot reason or in any way to avoid making the same mistake in the future. Also applicable if the "plot reason" is utterly unnecessary and is just a way for the GM to seem cooler than you. Do note that the "plot reason " does not need to ever actually have a plot presence for the concept to come to apply (and by extention the situation it refers to)


    Hunted RPs: RPs based upon the premise "especial group of people appear and a group called " X hunters" is formed to track them down/kill them/etc..." .


    On a latter date (tomorrow?) I will explain why these are really staring to piss me off...

    as for your ideas @[30866:@ZappiestAbyss] I would say that might work, but you may need an OP character who is like a ruler or something. I just don´t think GMs really understand that type of character should be an NPC and not their main.

    That's a good point. I do hate when GMs treat rulers and Gods as their mains because then if they get bored and decide to fight others it becomes extremely difficult to even survive without your character:


    A. Surrendering 


    B. Retreating 


    C. Or just dying

    yup
    Check out what I found in the Auction House today.


    Just in case you still wanted to play Aura Kingdom. I'll keep this in storage for you :)

    People are allowed to play whatever they want without people breathing down their necks about playing what they think is the superior version.


    This is the net, get over it.

    Not to mention there was no reason for you to come here. You wouldn't have been notified about it since this was posted by me to another person's profile. There was no mention of what game I was talking about on the front page since it was cut off. You literally came here specifically to piss on the game I prefer playing instead of WoW.


    In sort, piss off. Thank you.

    I'm not saying you can't play or not or breathing down on your neck, WoW is the ''father'' of all modern MMORPGs as Everquest was to WoW and Ultima was to All of them. (To add to that there is a whole genre called WoW clones.)


    Yet again the net is free, and I am free to browse it as much as you are, make sure to go and notify the mods about your dissatsification with the status update tab should you see it necessary. Your hostility to my joke has been noticed and I shall not bother you.
    Before I go to bed, a big shout out to all people in Siria and other countries in war right now, and may we all think , truly think, of how we can contribute to the good of humanity before the immediate desires. 
    Studying the birth makes one wonder how all those characters whose mother died at birth (assumably unexpectedly) made it, given the likely lack of ready breastfeeding. Or do most hospitals have something spare ready? Can anyone tell me? Was it like that during medieval times too?
    Thanks for the Follow Friend :D

    Why'd you think I asked you to follow me?


    And tbh I really hate Nietzsche

    billthesomething
    I find that Nietzsche's philosophy is often misrepresented due to it's often presented as this outright hatred for life and existences, when he honestly was something of an optimist, while he believed that their was no meaning to life and stuff, he also found it to be the responsibility of the nihilist to make the world better for others 


    in other words "Life is Meaningless, but the future isn't"

    I don't hate him for being "oh he's a pessimist" I hate him because he's cocky in his assumptions. Because he makes leaps based on premises with which I disagree with, then insults my beliefs (because what else to call the way he handled religion) and while he inspired some good things he also inspired some of the biggest movements of bigoted idiots who think that saying the things Nietzsche said equals being smarter than other people or that people who disagree with Nietzsche are stupid...
    At what point does "being open-minded" become "betraying your principles"?

    Usually the point at which someone uses the insult of being "close minded" as ad hominem when you disagree even slightly.

    When your doing something your not comfortable with just to avoid hurting another person's feelings.

    Well i think the point is when  your so open-minded that you think its ok to eat a beef taco filled with ranch
    Ah, can't stop procrastinating! Gotta get my head on the test!

    Unless you mean something other than the ramps over water I just pictured, definitely no. If it is something else thought, then maybe, but it's lost in translation.

    Not where I'm from I'm afraid... But thanks for the help though.
    The thing people forget about those that don't have any "serious problems" is that because of that, the problems they do have are ignored or dismissed and this can hurt even more than the problem itself.
    I tagged you in the interest check

    Alright, alright. Though now that I know you're interested, i'll definetely tag you when I reboot Kemonomimi lyrics

    Do you know anyone who would be interested in mine
    Don't you hate it when someone comes, does something you have a problem with and their excuse is "I'm lazy"?

    Depends on what they're doing. Depending the circumstances at least they're being honest rather than stringing you along.


    id rather you flat out tell me you will or won't do something than me have to nag and push.
    Idea
    Idea
    That's true, but some things are basic courtesy and others are things you outright committed to do, etc... as you said @[19949:@call me rae] it depends on the situation , but sometimes you just gotta wonder : "if you're not gonna commit wtf are you doing here?"

    some people are just flighty tho. i'm one of them, i'll have a great idea and go weeks without any bites then suddenly wind up with twelve offers i have to juggle.


    i mean granted i'll usually just tell you if i'm not interested outright so that's probably why it doesn't bother me. if your not into something than fine idc. but i got a pretty thick-skinned. as long as your not like calling me stupid or a bully you can tell me whatever you want and i'll just count it as your version of trying to spare my feelings.


    not everyone is comfortable saying flat out - it's not working bye.


    so if "i'm lazy" is their way of saying they're not interested i'd just roll with it and not take it personally.
    To all members of RPN:

    I have friend who signed up to RPNation exactly a week ago. I was curious what's the end of being a new member. After a few day, or few weeks or even months. I don't know the answer so I asked. Sorry it was so stupid of me to ask :} 
    Idea
    Idea
    No I was just confused as to why you'd ask that here in this status update out of nowhere.


    Being a new member is more of a question of activity than time, as far as I'm (and seemingly the staff) is concerned. Until you have 250 content count, you can pretty much be considered a new member

    Oh... Thank you. I had no Idea, lol
    Well ended up almost pulling an all-brighter in a (failed) attempt to make up for the week without my laptop before I go into round 2, but I'll die if I don't get at least some sleep, so goodnight!

    It ended up dying from pretty much the same reason most of my stuff dies. Life loves to throw unexpected curveballs at me , and I can never be sure whether I will or not be available and how much. I can understand enthusiasm dying right there (not to mention all the mistakes I may be doing as a GM).

    Ah, okay. That sucks, sorry to hear about that. I hope you do better next time :)
