One thing I wanted to state after reading Rhane's post. I know I have offered "advice" to you as well as other players. Especially when it comes to certain things that certain races just don't do, okay the ones from DnD. Now I am wondering these people are telling you who you can play with and who you can't. If this is because you have joined a group with a character then this type of thing is to be expected. But if that isn't the case then tell them to take a flying leap and put them on iggie on the site AND your IM's.
There is a very bad elitist attitude around this site. I had a character that spouted off some "folk lore"(yes it does exist in any world, not everyone knows every single detail about everything as some of the characters and players seem to think) and a few players started jumping down my throat for it because they thought I have no clue. I was very satisfying to show two of these players that indeed I did know my stuff and in fact had forgotten more about DnD than they will most likely ever learn.
A thing to remember, just because it says in one book or another that a devil has to be this or has to be that doesn't mean the player is playing by that campaign setting. If you want totally game specific rping then try the Scarred Lands site which happens to be a very good place to actually to online playing and not just going into a tavern and drinking and never actually doing anything but bad mouthing other characters and players.
The other night I was unfortunate to witness an rper that was taking personal issues out with someone's style of rp and using it vaguely ic. Well it also happens that both of the players are people that I enjoy roleplaying with. Now the one that was doing the slamming happens to be one that is getting tied up with the storyline of one of my characters and I will be ignoring that character from now on. If you have a problem with someone's style of rp then tell them in a pm or keep your bloody mouth shut. All this bashing of people trying to veil it as IC actions has gone too far in my humble opinion. Now if this messes up the storyline my character is involved in then oh well, if the ones I am playing with can't see the wrongness that occurred then I shouldn't be rping with them in the first place and will quickly rectify that situation as I have done in the past. Now people might think they are being witty but what they are actually showing us is that they are nothing better than a spoiled child that has to whine over not getting their way. News flash you might be witty, you might even be borderline genious but I would rather rp with someone that doesn't have enough brain cells in their head to rub them together to get a clear thought that to play with a pompous jerk who thinks they are so much better than anyone else. It is players like this that are making the ISRP areas a chore to rp in at times. Even when you put those people on ignore you still end up hearing about what they said to this person and what they said to that person.
If it isn't plain to see I am sick and tired of these people, as well with the ones that don't do anything about them and just sit back and let it happen. Everyone keeps saying what would make this place so much better but they continue to interact with these people. If we ALL would quit then they would have no reason to come back to the site and then we could go about making it a better place. The same goes for the powergamers and the snerts, twinks or what ever you wish to call them. If you notice they are being snerts iggy them. If someone asks why tell them honestly though not in a mean way why you no longer interact with them. If you find this is causing you problems with your rping get in touch with me, there are many on this site that know my email addy as well as have me on IM's and they can get in touch with me and I will make it a point to make a character for the sole purpose of rping with you. Now I know that is in no way a treat or anything like that, but I am willing to play with those that are being shunned because they refuse to play with the godmoders on this site and their elitist views as well.
