This, exactly this. I don't really understand how a LS is 'seclusion.' It's like.
OK EXAMPLE:
How many of you guys have a linkshell for your static? Ok, great. Do not have/talk to any other friends? Of course not!Â
"That's different it's practical not social!" I hear.
BULLSHIT!
Yes, there are some statics and raid groups that are entirely business. I do not feel, however, that it is the norm. Sure there is a goal there, but it's still a social circle EXCLUDED to some (read: people not in the static, generally).
That is not to say I am excluding anyone, the + I add to things involve things like allies and the like.
This is not an FC, of which you can only be in one of. There's actually already an FC for that as I know, NAWTY. And while not RP, they're a pretty cool group of people (they live in the same ward as my FC's house). Linkshells do not have the 'only one' restriction. If you already have 8? Then yeah sure I guess there's a conflict there, but I have four! WHAT?! FOUR SOCIAL GROUPS HOW DARE I!
I dunno, the 'you're secluding yourself' argument...
I'm sorry, it just sounds dumb.
Edit: cleaned up language. Post now with less swearing!
on topic-ish, i still don't get why people care about anyone's sexual orientation. If your not sexually attracted to someone your not going to have sex with them and they are not going to have sex with you, so why the hell is any other detail relevant?Â
if someone gets up in your face over their orientation/religion/politics, the mistake they made was getting in your face. that is just rude and deserves retaliation, the subject matter is moot at that point. However if their not in your face about it, why would you even care what people do in their private life?
sorry if i rambled been up looong time with no caffine lol
