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.

Elijah Dani: ...I get his situation. I really do. I don't blame him, at all.

Noah: But?

Dani: But nothing. He don't deserve that.

MkayRose Marcy: Different kinds of flesh eh? Sounds like an alien. Are you an alien? What planet are you from? Or oh, are you from another dimension? Would make a lot of sense, there might as well be bajillions of those at this point.

Dani: Okay. Mar-Mar right? Might wanna tone down the question.

Marcy: Sorry! Sorry. Just... excited.

Natalie: Look I know this place can be exciting but you sound like you're on your 10th cup of coffee.

WoomyPearl Tome: Oh frig I never made that connection till now-

Marcy: I can see it. Buuut um, RAAM right? Seems more grumpy than skeleton man.

Ratatoskr Marcy: Oh no need the Japanese honorific! You can call me Mar-Mar if you want! Heck anything works!

Hunk: Yeah I'm sticking with Mar-Mar. That's cuter.

Dani: Mar-Mar! And... yeah usually I'm not that into Japanese song. Like they're awesome not gonna lie but... hey, can tell you put all into it.

Danny: Oh hey, Anne brought a friend. Cool.

Marcy: Yupyup! Oh, um, Ren right? You do music? Man been a while since me, Anne and Sash did music together.

Danny: She's an idol.

Marcy: Whaaaaa-

Anne: Okay Mar-Mar, calm down. Deep breath, deep breath.

Elijah Tome: Um, I know you mean well for him, but you can't force him to open up if he don't want to. Like we can listen, but it's up to him.

Marcy: Trauma... trauma sucks. Really.

MkayRose Marcy: Sera huh? Well I never heard of that planet before. How's the atmosphere like? Is it anything like Earth? Probably not, come to think of it. Nevermind that question then. RAAM doesn't look human, but I wonder what's the planet's composition like.

Anne: Marcy! Breathe!

Marcy: I did the thing again did I.

Hunk: To answer that question: His planet sucks. Like if you're a normal human you'd proooobably absolutely die.

Noah: As someone that also live on a sucky Earth, yeah. 'Suck' is an understatement.

Marcy: Ah so it's like a Death World!

PhilosopherStones Iiiiii think I've seen that comic before on the 'Net. Where though... where...

Murataku Sorry! Breathing now, breathing...

Anne: Excuse her. She gets very enthusiastic.

Marcy: It's a real life wizard Anne! Or... maybe not. He's real right? I mean he's real at his place obviously.

Tome: Someone wanna break the news to the poor girl?

Anne: I don't wanna, it's great to see her happy again.
