RP Rant Thread X3

[Honourable Villain]

It irritates me when someone asks for a recap and their last post was just 2 pages behind... Really? You can't read two pages? You don't even have to read, maybe just skim and see if someone responded to your post. Don't sit there and post spam asking a for a recap. Even more irritating? One line posts. Basically that should be enough said, guess that is not enough. One lined posts are ever so difficult to respond to and that may lead to losing interest in the Rp and cause brain racking typing to get out a good post. Plus those kinds of people who would bump an Rp every five minutes... then PM's you the same exact bump. I do have a life and there are more interesting Rps out there other than this one. It takes time to come up with a good posts sometimes and I may post once a day but at least I don't try to tick you off with a one line post reply.

Venting is good (: rant rant rant X3

Okay, so there's this one....Certain person on one of my RPs. The winged wolf one which I love dearly, probably the most of all my RPs. So, this person comes on, and first she copies names for her charries from a book series. Which I really don't like, as it's not creative at all. And she used an unnatural spelling for "Brook" when I SPECIFICALLY said that only names from nature can be used. Then, her first post is good, but then she-posts a one-liner. When I remind her that this RP is semi-lit, she makes up an excuse about schoolwork and this project being 25% of her grade. I have done difficult projects before, and I never stopped posting paragraphs because of that. I was hoping that maybe the name argument thing at the beginning was just a one-time thing, and It would be better after that. But now I'm not so sure anymore......

Too many roleplays to choose from!

omg that person makes me so mad. I'm almost a Senior in highschool and I have to work on my grades so I can get into college and she's just worried about this one paragraph destroying her grade. For those who role-play with me know I write a paragraph or try and push more. It's not that hard to try.

People that get reaaaaaaaaaally uppity in RP's.
Like when you point out something wrong* about there post and you want them to change it, and it's like you killed their dog.
Or we go a page without them and they act like it's the worst thing that has ever happened because they have to read it all.
People need to get their ego's in check and learn that a RP doesn't revolve around them.

*Like saying Samanatha is in the cafeteria when she's actually in the Hall, or something along those lines.

This one roleplay.
I joined it.
And we're waiting for just a few more characters.
But nobody else.
Is posting a form. D8

*really wants to start the rp, can you tell?*

Oh my goodness! I'm in that SAME RP with you and I know what you're talking about! Da_Strange_One and I were talking about it the other day! It really is annoying.

Rant: I really don't like it when people Power-Play, and they don't even know they're doing it! I try my best not to power play at all! Like this:
Me: Amber grabbed Talon's hand and started pulling him to the lake, when she got there she sat down and slipped off her shoes.
~End~
I never once said that Talon followed after her! So that 'Talon' can choose to follow and can Role Play his OWN character!
I've seen it ((Power Playing)) like this:
Person: ~Name~ opened her room door and motioned for ~Name2~ to come inside. She closed the door behind ~Name2~ when he entered.
~End~
Um... NAME2 NEVER POSTED THAT HE CAME INSIDE. I know that it seems like a little and petty thing, but COME ON Power-Playing is a NONO in all of the rules for Role Plays that I've seen.

I've also had instances when people are ONLINE and they don't post... at all! And even post in other Role Plays, and when people PM them about it, they blatantly ignore it. I know that sometimes people have more than one window open, but it can't be the WHOLE time.

That's my rant..............

[infinitesimal void]

Yeah, I hate that!
OMG one of my favorite Rps shut down! GRRRR!

Character development =/= revealing your character's overly tragic past.
Fail person is fail.

I hate this!

*Puts on fashionista voice* "Giiiiiirl, tragic pasts are SOOO last season!"

Ugh. I mean, really--85% of people weren't abused as a child. It's not that way in real life! I understand a few tragic pasts, but when every single charrie has one....Ugh.
