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.

<< Just because — Shadow, was it? — isn’t antagonistic anymore doesn’t make them automatically good. I guess you could say the same for Belka. Just because they haven’t been at war with the world for 30 years doesn’t mean they’re not stirring up stuff. Hell, I wouldn’t be surprised if they’re doing it right now. >>

Shadow and Elijah: but why can't you care?! why can't you be bothered to- to care about somebody for once!!! to be nice!!!

i know if you were treated poorly, you'd lash out... so can't you extend the same courtesy to others you'd expect them to extend to you??? by the great cycle, can you be nice for once?!

[up]x5    Actually, if I was treated poorly, then I still wouldn't care. I don't care how other people treat me, I care how I treat me. And I treat myself just fine.   

[up]x4    ...No, I didn't? What's wrong?   

   Apologies, I suppose? What did I do wrong?

Elijah: i-i want to at least try. i want to feel like i've accomplished something. that i've helped someone. because... because that's why i wanted to become a mod. to help people.

Shadow: but you shouldn't only care about how you treat yourself. you should care about how you treat others, as well. because... because that's the right thing to do.

Finally, more moderators are online. I had been asked by someone called "Eight" why their moderator application had been rejected due to them not having a clean track record, yet there's apparently another moderator who's caused several flame wars and was granted a mod position. Of course, I'm not taking sides here, because I was never present when those apparent "flame wars" occured. I'm pretty sure they'd simply like an answer.

[up]x12    And that too is completely understandable. They simply don't know me.   

[up]x11    It's not like I hurt people or anything, at least intentionally.   

   I'm simply honest and transparent about my feelings.   

[up]x10    We'll see.   

[up]x8    And frankly, I've been preparing for a lonely life.   

[up]x7    It honestly is nice. Much better than being hung up on other people's opinions of you.   

   ...Also, hello... uh, brother? Do I... call you that now? I'm not too sure.   

[up]x6    Egotist— In what world—   

   ...I'm just going to say your view on me is far too biased in your own favor, and that you're viewing me in a villainous light because of how I treat you.

why can't you be bothered to care?!?!
