Our avatars are posting on a forum thread.

Go To

This is a thread where, as the title implies, our avatars (from our galleries) are posting in an in-universe forum thread. You can drop in any time with pretty much any character you want, whether from existing works or your own OCs. Though most of it is done through forum posts, some "in-person" interactions between characters is also fine.

Even if this is a more casual RP, there are still some rules and general RP etiquette to keep in mind for everyone to have a good time and feel comfortable:

  • NO GODMODDING. Godmodding is when you decide what happens to another player's character, and is generally frowned upon. In particular, avoid injuring and especially killing someone else's character; fighting is ok but let the other player decide if the hit connects. If your plot idea requires something to happen to a different player's character, you'll want to privately discuss this with them and if they're ok with that. This includes in-universe moderation.
  • Be nice and respect other players' boundaries. Your character being mean or a jerk is one thing, but if someone gets uncomfortable about your behavior towards their characters, knock it off. Also do not force others into your story arcs; in general it would be a good idea to ask the other person first if they are interested, and plan it together if they are.
  • If you have anything to say, ask about, ect. that is not part of the RP, you can put it under a spoiler tag [[spoiler: like this]]
  • While almost any character is welcome, please avoid playing any real-life person who's mainly associated with controversies, drama and problematic behavior. We don't need that here.
  • Have fun!

    Original post 

Ahh, console video games (or vidcons as I call them). the ultimate medium of expression, able to convey any emotion ranging from hatred to love, loyalty to fear, all in front of our eyes. Ah, and with lovingly crafted art, music, and the ability to control the action, vidcons are the ultimate combination of the high arts. While I tend to play the stoic, I will be the first to admit that vidcons haven driven me to cry, to scream and shout, to feel actual hate; such is the power of this force beyond our wildest reckoning. And here I am, before you, to temp your tongues with the taint of such a tantalizing topic.

And the Japanese, the true geniuses behind the world of video games. Pah, I throw my scorn upon such incompetents of the West who would mock the true art of the Japanese with 'games' such as Baldur's Gate and Madden. Perhaps it is that the West is not as intelligent as the East, but this is a matter for another day. Japan has given us such masterpieces as the Final Fantasy series, Star Ocean, Wild Arms, and of course, Arc the Lad. Yes, some of the finest vidcons in the world were created by Japanese. I come to you today to ask you in all earnesty, what is your favorite vidcon? I will reveal mine after the grand debate has illustriously begun, but not before the first poster falls victim to my plot of discussion.

In other words, this is a thread on an imaginary forum our avatars frequent. The topic can fluctuate, and its mostly just general discussion.

Pixy: Hm... have we met before? Something about you seems familiar.

Ellen (again): I think I have some spare lightbulbs laying around somewhere... do you want one?

Elijah: i-i don't think she's awful. i think you're just upset with her right now.

(Monk actually succeeding at being the voice of reason? Must be a Nineth of July miracle.)

Cherie:    waow, really??? kasumin doesn't really know who either of you are, but she's really happy for you anyways!!!! YAYYYY LESBIANS!!!!! :・゚✧(ノ´ヮ´)ノ*:・゚✧   

Congratulations to you both! May you have a long and happy life together!

While I can't say I fully agree with Neon's way of saying it, if they truly feel the need to take a break from here for their mental health, I say they should take it. I just want what's best for them. That's all I have to say on this matter

Personally, I think a recurring problem with this thread is that some users tend to take it more seriously than necessary and forget they don't have to interact here. That's all I'm saying on the matter because I like this place the least when it's full of OOC chat about one specific user.

Elijah: ...i'm really sorry, mister elijah. i should have done more to stop that, instead of just... begging them to stop fighting.

(MONK NOOOOO DON'T BLAME YOURSELF YOU WERE DOING SO WELL A POST AGO)

Roe: [I see... I am quite impressed with your improving sewing skills, Roe!]

[I feel embarrassed for asking this, but... how exactly do you access it? Is there some port I can download myself onto it?]

Pri:    LESBIANS!!!! ٩(ˊᗜˋ*)و ♡   

Hm, that reminds me... you know, Kasumi-chan, we've never had a chance to go out on a proper date. Perhaps we could head out somewhere sometime soon?

   OH, KASUMIN WANTS TO GO SOMEWHERE WITH HER GIRLFRIEND!!! („★0★„)   

(Yeah, I've been wanting to do some cute side story involving Kasumi and Shizuku going out on a date, possibly introducing some new characters in the process, similar to the side stories that oaiM_awgaS does.)

[1] (Yeah, I agree with this. In character arguments are a lot more awkward when the roleplayers are simultaneously also arguing.)

[2] (I agree! New character dynamic just dropped?)

[3] (The forum trauma duo... perfect.)

Sorry for being absent the last few days; had work to do and errands to run; did anything important happen while I was gone?

A bit of Leaning on the Fourth Wall on my end, but I was genuinely curious as to whether anything big happened while I was busy...
