Spell check and proofreading is a beautiful combination...

I get that there are people from different countries that RP here and the language barrier can be a cluster, to say the least. A few misspelled words or lack of correct punctuation here and there is no big deal. But, PLEASE for love of Olivia Munn, just make a concerted effort to proofread your shit before you click the "POST" button.

Players who don't respect the Private in Private Message.

On that note, if I send a player a PM, and then another player responds from their account, what the heck am I supposed to think of that? I think that's shady! Like, you're one person, don't play me with two accounts, and if you're two people in a room together, stick to your own freaking accounts! I don't want to have to talk to you through another player! What is this, the third grade? If I'm your GM, and I send you a message, I expect you to reply to it, not your buddy Timmy or Randy or Lucy!

@Invader Len Wow...that is probably the most messed up scenario I've read so far.

Who does that kind of shit anyway? Names. Now. So they may be displayed for all to laugh & throw rotten veggies at, flog with their favourite whip of choice, and otherwise shame until the tears and blood have ceased to run off their pathetic bodies!...

Or...something like that *shrug*

Post up names and it will be @Invader Len that we will laugh at for flaming and bullying another member...

Public shaming, bullying and harassment is the fastest way to earn a ban. Seen it before, so don't do it.

Are you messing with me, or did you completely miss the sarcasm in my post? O.o

I am fully aware of such things and would never do that (nor seriously ask anyone) to do that.

It doesn't count as sarcasm unless it's in Comic Sans, the official sarcasm font.

Because, gaddamn, it's hard to tell tone on the internots.

Sarcasm never translates well online. If you read it you cannot see what emotional tone it's been placed in, so it does appear ragey.

I don't think I'd be very comfortable doing that at all. Part of the reason why this issue upsets me so much is that it's a breach of privacy. It would be rather hypocritical of me to breach that privacy in return. I'm just pissed that I sent someone a pm, and someone else is responding from their account. Like, it's really not cool.

I didn't mean to start a fight on here. I just came to vent.

My apologies for the comment and that the humor was lost somewhere in the matrix.

But I do like the Comic Sans idea ;)

It's all good. Happened to me before as well cause I know I can be a sarcastic lil shit sometimes too.

I'm a bit annoyed that I want to write but my battery seems so empty and I've taken more than long enough of a break. I have people waiting on me. This is frustrating.

@Gowi I'm in the same boat as you.

...Ok, not really, because my battery is completely exhausted by college work. And my leeching teammates ain't helping at all.

_{Made worse that my mid-sem exams are around the corner. Oh well.}

The hardest part is to dig yourself out of the mud, I think. I really appreciate the people I write with and I don’t want to give the impression where I’m so unable to post that I’m keeping people behind or compromising the story we’re telling. It’s rough and I hate this time of year for it. But I’m going to take this shovel and dig myself out of the mud hole I’ve fallen into.

It annoys me that people want plots to be rushed then to flow naturally. Everything has to be now and not then.

Plots are like a fine Wine or Whiskey [JD], you don't rush them. So why do people want nonstop diarrhoea? It is like when you watch a movie or play a video game, you don't want the game/movie to end within 10 minutes where the credits then roll by. I know I don't want that.

Also, nonstop bitching give it a break will ya. Bitching it fine but if it is all you are going to do then just stop. I am OK with nonstop ranting, though. RP wise you dig.

New bitch: If I kick somebody from an RP, and they bring in their friends/family to try and strong-arm me into letting that person back in, what the fuck do I do? I'm trying to stay polite and professional, but to be perfectly honest, I'm mad as hell. I feel like I'm being threatened by this person, who keeps cussing me out and treating me like I'm the worst person ever for kicking a player, who wasn't even following the rules about god-modding, for christ's sake. I feel like I was well within my rights for kicking them, my Co-Gm and other players agree, so why is this person putting up such a huge deal by bringing in other users to harass me? I've asked them to stop, but they just keep on messaging me and arguing with me? Is there a way to make them stop, like a block button I'm unaware of? Do I just ignore them until they go away? I'm really concerned that if I do that, they might come into my thread and start posting their hate and scare players away. I've never seen any reaction like this to a player getting kicked, even though I had a myriad of reasons to kick them, including god-modding, combat hogging, and sharing private messages with other players. Frankly, I'm pissed and baffled, and more confused than I've been since the teen titans reboot.

Note: The person harassing me is a total stranger, has never been a part of any of my RP's, and now certainly never will be.

@Invader Len If you feel like you were in the right; just ignore him, and if he keeps disrupting your RP, just contact the mods.

I doubt that's actually xir friends and family. I come from a website with a long history of morons with alts who don't ever leave and try to use them to voice their opinions. Not sure how easy it is, (not very, I'm sure, since I think you need a different email every time for this sort of thing?) but someone in the habit of doing this kinda thing undoubtedly has the necessary time/resources/motivation.

I feel like this is a great time to let off some team.

This may not be a good reason to bitch about, but still. It kinda hurts my feelings. When you put a lot of dedication into your roleplay. Have many ideas for it, and try to be as active as possible. And do what you can to keep it going. But then someone goes missing without even telling you! It's so freaking annoying, to go to a roleplay, express interest, and then have the nerve to slip out without telling anyone. Makes me really, really angry. And then when they are in a roleplay similiar, and they use THE SAME CHARACTER SHEET THEY MADE FOR YOUR ROLEPLAY.

Tell me how you guys would feel about this. I may be in the wrong. But it's kinda just hurts my feelings.

Warn them, say you will contact a mod if they continue to harass you. If they do, tell a mod. A mod can threaten them with a ban.

GM's that after accepting a character nerf them retroactively by writing the roleplay around a single character's skills and making their skills practically useless indirectly, sometimes in nonsensical ways.
Example: goblins and kobolds are considered as smart as humans to prevent a character using weak mind manipulation on them.
