[QUOTE="Ethera de Lioncourt, post: 2559415, member: 56769"] It's a game. We come here to spend free time doing something we enjoy, interacting with other people, creating storylines, and using our imaginations. I judge those I talk to on their ability to rp, hold conversation, and have a fairly good idea of what it is their doing and how their said character should act (ie- Vampire not eating food, Minotaur knowing he can't go under tables and sit on someones lap) I will talk to those outlandish characters others will not. Because maybe I have a big heart and knowing someone else wants to spend moments out of their life sitting with my character and their character in a pretend land with pretend folks, well to sum it up means alot to me. IC and OOC. I play things some have called stupid, boring, idiotic, and impossible. But those who judge some of my more "odd" characters honestly don't know the first thing about them and hear snipets while they talk to someone else. Take for example Miss Ethera, three different things she is, three things some people who have far too much time on their hands analyzing someone elses character said were impossible to make. But given the 16pg story (just her first 10yrs) on word I have done I would say I have more then enough reason for what she is, how and why. But no one ever asks. Let them think what they want, it's better that way. It sorts those who are kind and open from those who are unkind and not open to new things. As Dontella said there is a thing called freedom of destiny, someone could walk in as a thing that is fifty different things, but as long as their personable, have good conversations, etc I could care less if my "image" is damaged sitting with them. For me it's crystal clear, I do not like hurting people. I would not like to imagine someone on another end of a computer crying (Yes I have had talks with people who have done this) because people will not speak to their characters when all they want to do is make long time friends IC and OOC. Listen, okay, I realize rules are rules when making someones character, I follow rules (some would debate that) but it is a game, if someone else just wants to make a farmer who is a psionic monkey when the flowers bloom more power to them because it's something that makes them happy. Something I would never wish to take away from another person. I'm lucky, been around a while, seen alot of things, but I have been lucky in the respect that I have made friends OOC that I hope will last a lifetime all because of a free form rping room somewhere on the internet. Lighten up. [/QUOTE]
