explain all the FFXIV casts that are split in half over certain NPCs not wanting to tag certain WoLs then

it happens way more often than you'd think

That's what makes it a struggle, anon. The WoL is for all intents and purposes an OC that anyone can play however they want and that's super daunting to tag with a character that has a relationship with that OC in canon. WoLs expect you to read their minds and do what they want which is as far as I know a huge no no in DWRP and yet people "have" to let the WoL OC be the main character who dictates how the story went and how your character was supposed to feel about it. Apping into those games not wanting to tag them is 100% reasonable to me, but the WoL+their friend group will throw a shitfit if you don't. It's not the same and not nearly as simple as "you shouldn't app if you don't plan on tagging the main character."

you guys can justify it all you want but it's still weird. not against the rules, but weird.

If someone apped say, Deku from MHA into a game and didn't want to tag Bakugos and opted out of it, nobody would bat an eye. Same if it was reversed. That's why opt outs exist. The people you're replying to even say that it's in "bad faith" to not tag castmates as the onus of this conversation and you're the one who brought up how it would be weird to even think about not tagging a castmate.

Only WoL players feel the need to think this is weird and upsetting, so I'm going to assume you're a WoL player that's salty people don't like you in this thread.

people would indeed bat an eye at that, there was an entire rpa thread about it last month

assume whatever you want tho lol

nah, it's not just wol players. i opted out of playing with someone in my big cast and they got super salty about it. the weird part is our characters weren't even that close.

Yes but

This thread is about shitty WoL players. So obviously they meant the person was upset that people were talking about shitty WoL players and therefore was a salty WoL player.

i play all sorts of npcs, from boyfriend character to sidequest wonder, and i haven't met a wol who hasn't demanded that i give their precious baby special attention all day, every day. i also have a few non-ffxivs that wols have somehow decided to glom onto, and they still pitched a fit when i turned them down. some wol players just really gotta be the center of the universe, no matter who you play. those ones are the worst.

one of my castmates is so fucking embarrassing on plurk and i can do nothing about it but whine on wankgate :( they take over everyone else's plurks to talk about their character and i want to lean in very closely and whisper shhhhhhhhhh you're embarrassing yourself

you sound

pissed off

weird things happening doesn't make them not weird

it's a wol-specific problem, but also it's not: a character you can make look like a fictional, perfect version of your ideal self, who has relationships with likable characters, and who has very little personality or dialogue and can be endlessly projected onto, is always going to be a magnet for the sort of player who wants to be the center of attention and may pitch a fit when they're not. it makes sense to avoid them.

do you mean to tell me penises DON'T independently slither around like snakes when not in use to penetrate self-cleaning buttholes? my god, i've been lied to for years!

the context of which is deep picking up Encanto characters

not all of which are subject to the standards of games

WHAT op SAID is (especially for penis bearers because guys can't pee until they ejaculate first)

we have to assume OP didn't mean "at all" because that would be awkward. the context was BDSM and difficulty urinating. it was reasonable to assume this meant "erect." some excitable soul turned this into "miliseconds from cumming" rather than just "erect." not my problem. i brought you raw science and you're turning your nose up at it. ungrateful.

a pissy attitude is what you brought

Please learn how vaginas work if you’re going to write smut with women involved.

Please learn how human bodies work if you have one or plan to inhabit one or plan to write about having or inhabiting one.

the context was bsdm and orgasm denial which includes edging which is all about bringing someone miliseconds to cumming

it is actually your problem

this is directed at Venom specifically

I have to agree with anon here, this has been the context from the start so...

hdu kinkshame me

+1 ffxiv wols stand out as the worst example of this phenomenon because of how popular the game is

"For all your vague period needs"

Listen, Star Wars musedumper, if all your actorfaces OCs all have the same generic blurb, they don't sound interesting enough to play with.

wols are pretty boring and you have to care about their self-insert fantasies with their npc husbandos. it's always the same shit and you just know there's little ooc/ic divide. aymeric, graha and emet attract the most batshit weirdos.
