you're overthinking it

there are prosers who are shitty writers, just like there are commentspammers who are shitty writers

some people just can't or won't write well, no need for this "tv shows are ruining rp" business

A+ for combining medium wank and style wank though

but i've seen people call "infomodding"

Deets? I have never seen this. Care to mention who pulled something like this?

What you describe isn't infomodding and I have never seen it called infomodding by anyone, not even the dumbest anons on rpanons/wankgate.

This is pretty different from the usual medium wank, though. Like... visual media vs books?

tbh this is more probably because most RPers are American and most American men are circumcised

but still

uncut men do wash down there

After dropping five different muns into what seemed to be an exaggerated form of an anxiety attack over this, I decline.

Really, I play for fun, not for dealing OOCly with people who throw insecure fits. Not playing smut avoids those people, menaing RP is more fun. It's sad, but in the end it's better that way.

repeating what first two responses to this have said.

also, if you really wanted your character to engage theirs, instead of just brushing past them and throwing an over-the-shoulder apology, you could have had your character stop in the tag and say something else to their character - a question, an observation, anything - to get the dialogue started.

the more you give the more you get, anon.

Rys doesn't hate Clint. She hates Natasha.

But if this Clint dares to like his partner more than Rys's shitty OC get ready for the hate to flow.

When I see a log with Beautifully Thoughtful Characters doing nothing but Beautifully Thinking Deep Thoughts, I like to tag it with my biggest jerk and have him run into them.

You wanted people to adore your character's Poetic Deep Thoughts without giving a hook to respond to? Have a petty fight with a loud moron instead.

No. You can't. Because there are little nuances, visual, audible, touching cues you do not know how to look for or even if you SHOULD look for them.


Bullshit. TBH, you sound like a virgin who imagines sex to be this LIFE CHANGING SPECIAL SHIT.

It's not. There are no little nuances that you suddenly learn after having sex. Yes, I know the sound a particular guy makes when I peg him in the ass hard, but you can't even describe said sound properly, and it changes depending on the person. Hell, some sex positions don't even work with some people, but are perfect with others. Your 'special' cues depend on the other person. Some people twitch if you pinch their ass. Some don't even blink. Some guys love if you brush their nipples. Others turn dead cold and their arousal fades.

There's nothing for a virgin to suddenly learn if she has sex.

it does not equal practical experience.

Sorry, kiddo, but it does. Sex itself is so varied that only the grossest mistakes even matter. Some things that actually work in sex are things you'd likely scream are innacurate virgin beliefs!!1

Practice is makes you competent in a skill.

Yes, practicing sex makes you better at having sex. Having sex with different people means you have more experience with dealing with different people sexually.

It does jack shit for your writing about it. Having sex and writing about sex are completely different skills. In fact, people will usually write about idealized sex because 99.999% of the people prefer it over actually realistic sex.

This means that doing research in what counts as good porn will always make you a better writer, whereas just having sex won't do anything. Whoopdedoo, you realize how getting fucked feels like. Oh, the other woman next door feels something entirely different, and she'll think you're describing it wrong. Oops!

It's just sex. It's not magical. You know everything that matters after 2-3 hardcore porn videos, an afternoon of reading and a night with a vibrator.

I've seen a clique within the cast I play, but I don't know about other cliques. I completely agree with that it's extremely hard to get a footing in the game. I feel sorry for those newbies just joining with the current plot going on.

Talking to her proves fruitless unless you're patting her ass. She's had literal emotional breakdowns and talked about how her life has no meaning without SP and Phancyhive, about how she's literally sick and wants to skip work because of roleplay. That's more than sad.

You're obviously one of her butt brigade if you don't realize SP's closing is probably exacerbating her stressful RL.

Funny thing: I actually give a shit about her. I'm just not entirely stupid that a PA plurk about "weh weh there's something wrong" right after the SP endgame plot post goes up is entirely about her offline life because the coincidence is TOO perfect, but I also know talking to her won't do a damn thing. No amount of crit has ever helped her, no amount of sound advice has ever been taken, etc. But obviously, I'm only on her plurk for WG. Just like you're on here for more than patting her ass.
