Role Play Rant Thread V.3 RULE UPDATE

[saige.]

Grammatical errors such as "worser" instead of "more worse" or just "worse" just ticks me off /: I don't know why, but it just does x.x I see it all the time, even in Semi-lit RPs, not just illiterate ones.

Grammar Nazis FTW x3

It annoys me when people use their pictures on their posts, not their forms, that are huge. I'm like 'Where's the post? D='. although, I think I'll make a little banner to indicate which character I'm using, if I have multiples.

[Araviir]

Is this character as Mary Sue-ish as I think she sounds?

Nicola Wolfe
Nicola is small and light on her feet. her hair is black, shoulder length with choppy cut. Her eyes are bright blue and her skin is a bit pale, she isn't especially tall, standing at just 5'1 and 107 pounds, fast reflexes and a sharp eye make her a good seeker. ( http://oi56.tinypic.com/5lsb3m.jpg roughly what she looks like, though the body shape is off, no one is that skinny)
Username: Fenric
House: Gryffindor
Year: Third Year
Wand: Holly, Billywig stinger and phoenix feather core, 10 inches, sturdy
Pet: Male sooty owl named Byron
Blood: Pureblood (on a side note, her mother is an animagus, and Nicola has been trying to work out how to do it)
Patronus: Cheetah
Quidditch: Yes, Seeker
Personality: Nicola is generally fun loving and friendly, she likes to pull the occasional prank on students (and teachers, as long as she thinks they can take a joke.) She generally is friendly, though her temper can spring up when people pressure her, she tends to be snarky and sarcastic to those she doesn't like. Often She tends to act simply on impulse, and has a rather unfortunate disregard for rules, getting her in trouble all too often

I feel like I mad her sound like a major Mary Sue >> I'm no good at character descriptions, I mean, once I RP her, she won't be a Mary Sue, I just think she sounds that way >.<

[Enfys]

I do that as well, Fenric Also, my descriptions are always off yet I for some reason always feel obliged to put it as a category in my forms...

[plum]

HAI ENFYS. xD
My personalities always suck, so I leave them off my roleplays' forms.

[Enfys]

HAI ABYSSAL. GET CHO BOOTAY OVER TO RFS AND POST AS DA SMEXY SEELY, KAYZ? /endcapsabuse

Yeah... I guess there's really not really a lot of point to it. I mean, you really don't know about your character until you RP with them...

[DRdoctorlady]

I wish they'd make a new form for literate roleplayers. Because I see all these roleplays that have no plot whatsoever gets members and get posts every three seconds, which makes all the thought out, good roleplays get dumped to the fourth or fifth page in about five seconds. You have to be thirteen to post. Aren't teachers teaching spelling? Grammar?

I would love that.
Maybe then good roleplays wouldn't die all the time ;A;
I swear, even if I explicitly put LITERATE, no illiterates, please post at least a paragraph, correct spelling and grammar, etc. etc. etc. They still attempt to post one liners.
Story time!~
Once upon a time I was RPing and someone named their person Tara Bile. Of course, when she tells my character her name, my character is like "Oh, so like the stomach acid?" All creeped out and stuff. So then, she's like "noooooo, Terrubile" in the ooc.
...
"Terrible perhaps?"
.... I'm still astonished.

Different note~

I hate it when people put dog rps in the human rp section. Because the dogs have powers, they think they belong here, even though no humans whatsoever are involved e_o'''

And also, when I type occ instead of ooc. Occ is Out (of) Character Context, and I used it when I first started RPing. Now I can't ever type ooc correctly without going back and fixing it D:

[Enfys]

Or maybe a semi-lit plus... But honestly semi-lit. Because there are plenty of decent Semi-lit's out there that are good. I'm not quite literate, I think, but all the semi lit's I'm in and I make are on the more literate end of the spectrum.

[Ollie.]

;^; I haven't been online since the 5th and the only role-play I'm in that's active.. hasn't even moved more than 5 pages D< POO

[broccae]

WHEEEOOO! WHEEEOOO! Mary-Sue alert! Sound the alarm!

Pet:baby snow lepord and its name is frost
Patronus:?
Quidditch:Yes and captin
Personality:smart, happy, outgoing, kind, sad

Problem one- Snow leopards at Hogwarts? These are wild animals and are not meant to be kept as pets
Problem two: You're joining a HP roleplay and you don't know what a Patronus is?
Problem three: A 13 year old Quidditch captain?
Problem four: Sad AND happy?!
Problem five: Obviously not semi-literate.

My eyes burn T-T
