Killing And Why It Kills Roleplay

[Samson Option 9652]

Have any of you all read any good novels? I hate to be honest, but clothes are to humans in the flesh as forum dressings and manners are to humans on the internet. Ignore the reality that your first impressions do matter and show just how much we've fallen as a supposedly intelligent human race. When you, on the forums, want to put up some picture of a cliche image that makes me wonder if you've ever dealt with good fiction, or in game, want to play some mismatched eye-color fiending [for either sensual RP or being a psychotic nuisance] character - I can't take you serious enough to warrant anything more than an equally simple and monotone reaction.

 

You want to pout that roleplaying is a cooperative experience. Very well, but you aren't keeping your fair share of the bargain when I explore different choices while you are playing a pouting, anarchical, and cliche character. Why should I waste my good fiction writing skills augmenting your poor attitude both IC and OOC? I don't know if your local libraries have reading competitions over the summer, but you might want to take advantage of that. Why should I bring my ability to write to the table when you [certain ones of you, Ill hope you get the message without playing offended or hurt emotionally] can't go past playing one-dimensional characters for melodrama [thank you Anime!]. What is even funnier is you'll sit here and b*tch at me, making comments about thesaurii, tldrs, and bitching at the detail I provide in realistic roleplay. Are you in to roleplay for the possibility of great fiction to read as I am or are you just here to supersede a cruddy life IRL.

 

Be honest with yourselves. I have my doubts that this will make any impression as the internet is wont to enable folks to avoid cognitive dissonance, but really. I will kill a one-dimensional character who pity-mongers or acts melodramatic.

 

PS: Those who speak English as a Second Language are obviously exempt from this criticism. This being said, having helped refugees throughout my recent years, I know just who is ESL and who isn't.

 

This isn't about eliticism neither. I'm not expecting you all to be overly complex, I'm just hoping you all stop beating the dead horse with cliche, anime-inspired [or otherwise] characters who pity-monger, etc.

PS: To those who play the one-D psychopath and pity-mongerer, might be a lesson to take from this!

You don't understand what I meant, my friend. I have seen people, torturing others while wearing a mask and generally hiding how they looked or how they sounded. When these "others" survived, they immediatly went to the torturer. 

Some people do that even if they are killed during torture, though the point of the thread is to try removing those ideals if you are a torturer and someone says you are the one who tortured them when they wouldn't know. Either call them out on it, or as drastic as it is, make a BR to warn them. Even still, it may be as simple as if you want to get Gorey with your torture to gouge out their eyes and or  stab their eardrum to prevent them from hearing. Boom, they wouldn't have any possible way of knowing it was you. Though, since many people after torture go /monkheal. It may be a bit hard. In the end of the day it is your choice though :P I just like to give people the benefit of the doubt, call me a dreamer.

Call me a dreamer too, if that is the case.
