the responses to this thread are wild.

the kneejerk defensiveness in this thread to the mere suggestion that shipping and smut isn't always appropiate content to focus on in every game is unreal.

making game rules against this premise ignoring and enforcing them really needs to be more normalized around here if something this basic is a problem for anons.

enforcing those rules strictly would be a disaster and doom a game and the mods.

How much engagement with the premise is required to prove they aren’t ignoring it? How will this be proven? Is the expectation of this level of engagement placed upon every player equally, or just those playing ships?

Do players need to earn the right to ship with proof of plot activity? Can shipping allowed at all, and how would this be banned? Is smut? What about inbox threads and private logs?

No one wants to deal with the logistics of rules like that.

you realize i'm a completely different anon right

i'm saying at this point i'd rather prefer someone who is upfront with slurs versus someone who makes a big show out of being a progressive ally but then immediately reverts to insinuate people are intellectually challenged as a insult, and it's ok because they don't actually use the slur that makes them lose the ally card. it's insincere, performative, and very telling of their internal beliefs in that they see people with intellectual disabilities as their lessers and the punchline of their "witty" insults.

I’m usually fairly forgiving when it comes to alternate PBs, especially on memes, but why would you choose Robert Pattinson for Lestat?

Because they want to play Edward Cullen but don't want to deal with being a weird adult who still simps for twilight, like a disney world adult

ok but has anyone in this thread actually done that or are you just making up a guy to be mad at to try and defend the person who used a slur

(which is a great look btw)

"Please keep age appropriate"

It's the Mid Fuck meme wtf does that even mean?

hey maybe they want to play Batman

supposedly it's book lestat but it's not even a good pb choice for that version

idk the player but maybe they're just obsessed with the actor and only want to play characters with his face?

Re: MEME PET PEEVES

(Anonymous) 2024-08-15 01:43 pm (UTC)(link)
They probably mean they only want characters around their own character's age?

Re: MEME PET PEEVES

(Anonymous) 2024-08-15 01:50 pm (UTC)(link)
yet they haven't written down their character's age or any age preferences.

oh well, wasn't gonna tag anyway

There have been two perfect actors cast as Lestat. Even if you didn’t want to utilize their faces to avoid confusion, there are also plenty of actors who’ve had roles that had them in long blonde wigs.

Robert Pattinson is a Jensen Ackles Trunks level bad fantasy.

who are the fancast actors?

... they're 16-17. Like it's not hard to get that because Persona is all about high schoolers. The character doesn't even look like an adult either.

for the lols im guessing

idk, this is a good reminder for me anyway that no matter how popular a series is theres a chance someone isnt familiar with it

also he looks like an anime character. yea persona has their adults look like adults but not all anime does, so if you don't know the series thats not a guaranteed gimmie

Unless you mean actors that I’d fantasy, I was talking about the two Lestat actors that have absolutely killed the role: Tom Cruise from the movie and Sam Reid from the AMC show.

Both are incredible Lestats.

grips your shoulder. your canon isn't so important that everyone knows it, touch grass.

furthermore we have no idea if "age appropriate" means "18+ only because i aged up a little" (common in memes)
or "17 - 20"
or "15 - 25"
any of which would be reasonable to different rpers. you can guess what you think they want, but you don't actually know, do you?

anyway. still not gonna tag

and what if "age appropriate" means, idk, light groping only? or a preference for gentle missionary with the lights off while holding hands???? who the fuck knows

what's "very telling" is that you think insulting someone's intelligence is the same thing as dragging people with actual developmental disabilities for no reason

i'm not sure you understand why it's considered a slur, so i suggest you read up on that before you pop in to cape for assholes again

it's this, nothing else needs to be said tbh. that's an immediate addition to the dwtools blacklist though

Eh to each their own. Tom Cruise I'll give you but the AMC version I can only concede as a good Lestat in the sense that I'd like to punch his face.
