Sky 0 Share Posted February 26, 2015 The following are a few things about some people's character cards that have become to fester and develop as pet peeves. Names: This is where you put your name. Not your nickname, not "The Shadow" and especially not your username! (Don't get me started on "_" users...) If you are scared of metagaming, then why role play when you can get metagamed at all times!? Just put your name there and if someone metagames, call them out on it and if it gets too bad, report. Age: Look, I understand the want for putting your age as high as you can but don't do it if you don't know the history OR are just doing it so you can call everyone children. Come on, it's just sad, especially if the character is a new one. I mean, I've had times where my character for a good six months (aging him as correctly as possible... Thanks broken autoage!) gets called a child by someone who literally just created that character! Blegh, then I had someone try to tell me facts about a character I worked for back in Anthos and they screwed up everything... I helped them OOCly and they were chill but that's not the point! Race: Main races should be removed, half- variants should be instituted and that's that. No such thing as a "normal elf" as in real life there's no such thing as a "normal human". We all come from a certain sub-race, live with it. Description: This is where you put a description of what your character looks like, so we have an idea off of the bat. NOT WHERE YOU TELL US YOUR BLOODY BACKSTORY AND THEN END WITH, "PLEASE DO NOT META!!!". Oh and those who say "LEARN IN RP!!!!!" are worse! I mean, I am learning in RP... By looking at you! God damn it people. Status: It seems to become a norm that we all put our titles in here, which makes sense as we all should know who our kings and queens are, etc. But lately I've been seeing people use it for their pregnancy and even someone use it for there... Hat! Okay fine, not bad... I just needed to complain about this to complete the set. All in good fun, wrote this with some orange juice and toast, not spiteful just petty pet peeves.

DelaneyG 1279 Share Posted February 27, 2015 I agree wholeheartedly! On the use of /prefix I think it really should only be used for things such as titles. If your character is pregnant, then put it in your character description! It takes a while to pop out a kid so it should be there for a while.

Wendigo 786 Share Posted February 27, 2015 I mean little harsh on the age, It's perfectly ok if someone wants to make a decrepit, ornery old man... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I can get metagamed at all times, does this mean that it's that hard for people to separate IC and OOC? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellfiazz 879 Share Posted February 27, 2015 Then don't write your lifestory in a place where everyone who comes across you can see it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fireheart 2777 Share Posted February 27, 2015 The only complaint I would have is that you can't change your race. So people who have been stuck with for example Elf are stuck with it unless they want to delete their card, with all their nexus leveling, and start over.

Supah 334 Share Posted February 27, 2015 With the way creating a new card works all you can see are the four main races, I believe. You have to actually type 'more' to see all the rest and the sub-races. Some people just see 'elf', 'human', 'orc', or 'dwarf' and immediately pick one of those instead of their respective sub-races, because they didn't see them!

_Deutschland_ 44 Share Posted February 27, 2015 And then one or two of the Vladovs make their race Ologs, but their desc is (*void card I am a human*). They get the mammoth health perk. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
