Give me a real, fleshed out character. Unless we're playing nothing but a "smash-mouth, beer & pretzels, kick in the door" style game, I insist that there be a little more to any character than just a single quirk/stereotype.You're right about point 2. Disruptive players always find some way to be disruptive. And in my games, they get kicked to the curb as soon as they sow their true colors.If a player's character is nothing but a jaded veteran soldier, pious cleric, or slimy bard then yes, I would have a problem with that as well. Again, I want to see something more fleshed out in most cases.That said, characters like that aren't as big a problem for me, because they don't completely hinge on a single feature. That jaded soldier could be a fighter, paladin, ranger, etc. It could be any race or class. If there's more to the PC than the jaded soldier, then it's cool.In my experience, On the other hand, I have found that CGC's usually are played as nothing more than a bad representation of gender, and that's all. Change the gender, and the character disappears. That's the main difference IMO.As for you point four, it makes no difference the gender of the character in that situation. If a player is more interested in deviant sexuality, etc. than playing the game, then they either change their behavior or leave the game, for all the reasons I mentioned before. (I'm not a therapist, no pricks allowed, etc.)</blockquote>
