I fail to understand how someone's religion is an issue in the context of RP. If they're swatting everything down saying it's against their religion, I can see why that would be a problem. But if they just happen to be Christian and you're not... how does that change anything? I'm the only Christian in my RPing circle, they're not going to kick me out just because I arrive to RP with a teeny gold cross pendant.

No, it's because I don't believe in... well... it's hard to explain. But for one reason or another I don't like my charries to breed. She wanted our Kiwis to have kids, and I kinda didn't. She asked why, and I rought out a whole bunch of semi-religious reasons.

OMG. I've got one. White cats having blue eyes in warrior cat RPs. Even though I explain calmly that white cats with blue eyes are almost ALWAYS deaf, they continue to make them. Only like one cat in a trillion isn't. If they didn't know this, I wouldn't be angry. But they do know, because I tell them. And instead of changing the appearance, they say; 'oh lolz, then she'll be that one in a million.' So... irritating...

I thought it was blind, not deaf. O.O

Anyways, related to this I made a grey kit with blue eyes. Blind, of corse. But... no-one knew he was blind yet, he was only just born, but THEN suddenly after I decided to create my blind kit character, another person copied me and did the same thing, but made him noticably blind straight away, making it look like I stole her idea. GAH! >.>

No, no; it's definitely deaf. But that's so annoying! I hate that. When people copy your original ideas... It's especially apparent in warrior cat RPs, since the ideas are usually quite limited... when someone gets a good idea, everyone indirectly copies it.

Or the user just can't think of anything else and continues to use the same idea OVER AND OVER. This is what happened with RPs that run dry, such as CoW.

I hate Warrior RPs.

I know! Some ideas are used over and over...

I prefer non-warrior cat RPs, but I always am in at least one.. they're fun when you get good writers with ideas. The books were definitely better...

Another thing that annoys me very much is when you get people who make characters that are only made for a romance. They make them, at first, with the attention to have a life. But nooo... every single post is directed towards that person. In fact, even when that person the other one is obsessed with makes it clear that they want nothing to do with the other, they persist. This. Is. So. Annoying.

I myself have done this before; I make a character for a romance, because that person is lonely or something... But I always make them have something else besides that; a life.

On my other forum, I have this one person who made a character with no crush. Then another person came along and made a character, declaring that theirs would be in love with the others. I am not exagerating when I say this; every single sentence included that person's name. Everything she did was think/talk about/to that person.

Does anyone else ever have this problem? Perhaps I'm just being too picky...

I don't have this problem, but it sure sounds annoying! DX<

Actually... I did. Me and Daffy(again, this is CoW) had a friend(owner) who is... kinda weird. His characters always have to be in love with ours. Axel is in love with Nasme... They were mates for a brief period, but then she made it pretty clear she wanted nothing to do with him after he went insane and killed her pups.

Axel commited suicide, and the character was scrapped. We forgot he ever happened, because that character bugged me deeply.
A short while after a young wolf kinda had a little crush on Nasme. Axel somehow came back to life magically and scared him off, proclaiming that Nasme was his mate. O.e

Lol! That sounds really freaky. If I had been in that RP, I would have told him that it was completely weird.

I have another thing to rant about XP

One thing that I have seen very much is people making the same characters in different RPs. This is completely stupid... I mean, are they so uncreative that they can't make any characters? But it gets worse. For example, they have one warrior cat character, and they make another warrior cat RP, and make the same characters.

Think it can't get worse? Ha; you're wrong. It can. -.- Other people do the same exact thing, and they have the same romances. SERIOUSLY? Why bother making another roleplay? It just spams up CS! When I join RPs, I make my characters different each time. I, personally, would get bored if I had the same dramas in every RP...

I always use the same character. My fursona, simply because she fits uber well in RPs, and is easy to play because she's like me.
I also use Time, and Chris occasionally. And....Sometimes even Silence.
