No, dear. if you were in Hogwarts you'd wear the UNIFORM. You would NOT be trolloping around in your ripped black skinnyjeans and your NIN T-shirts.


^This.


Also, more of a pet peeve more than anything, but I can't stand unorganized roleplays. ,___,
It's not that hard to keep the character list and front page up to date, it takes about a minute.
And is it so hard to put the active character profiles somewhere on the first page?
I don't want to have to leaf through 30 pages of RP posts just to find one character profile.

Or at least a page number they joined on.
But you can also us the search button, though a bit inconvenient.

Props for the word trolloping, Ms. Acidd XD I can never understand how people can get so mixed up with details like that if you've either read the series or have read the description of the RP. Do they just try that hard to be non-conformists? I think its to the point where being a non-conformist is a form of conforming...

I am also hating on one liners right now. I hate them. They make my brain sad... And also make me want to make one liner responses because I feel like I'm surrounded by people who don't want to read.

Yes. Very annoying, especially when you want to know an age. Can't be frolicking about romantically with a 10 year old, can you? Ugh.

Every roleplay I see is either a wolf Roleplay or a Warrior cat Roleplay, or some dog RP. BE CREATIVE, AND FOR GODS SAKE, USE PROPER GRAMMAR.
I'm going to plan a Bird RP(Which will have mostly ravens and crows in it, not every type of bird possible like CR does.), based on my dead bird RP site Comet Riders. Maybe I should try and bring it back... -Thought-
Anyways, people are just so darn uncreative when it comes to roleplays!

I hate how I can be in a TON of roleplays and they are either:

a) Not started yet
b) Are inactive
or
c) We're waiting for someone to post.

Then I'm left bored out of my mind trying to find another roleplay to join. I'll just end up having to quit a million roleplays or I'll forget about them. Too bad I get bored too easily.

The girl you just called fat...she's overdosing on diet pills. The girl you just called ugly... she spends hours putting makeup on hoping people will like her. The boy you just tripped... he is abused enough at home. See that man with the ugly scars... he fought for his country. That guy you just made fun of for crying... his mother is dying. Put this as your status if your against bullying.

This is more of a rant for me I guess, but I don't ever re-use characters. It makes me sad to see if they turn out different in other RP's. I also don't join RP's with the same plots as one's I'm already in. I guess I'm too attached to them or something? I don't even know.

Whenever I post on here everyone I am currently RPing with always think I'm talking exclusively about them. xD
I find it hilarious.
/Is laughing about it IRL right now./

Something 'funny' I just read in a RP I am in...
"Wher`s my foal," asked *****. But at that moment the foal came bounding up to her, and jumped into her arms.


Why don't my baby horses jump into my outstretched arms? Especially when I'm in a barn and they're not even in the same general area? There is no other explanation: It's magic. But seriously... How untrue to life.
Actually, it's accurate for foals who are naughty and standing next to you that want to play with/hurt you, not in a paddock far away from the barn. I would scold a horse for jumping on me... After getting back from the hospital.
