It doesn't hurt anything to play as a character whose personality is "close to home", as long as you the player remember that you and your character aren't the same, and can maintain a separation between what your character feels and what you feel (for example, if a character and yours end up disliking each other, be careful not to let that cause you the player to dislike that character's player - the player wasn't mean to you, player-to-player, the only meanness which existed was in the story).Â
Admittedly, the use of your real name as your character's name causes me some concern that you may not quite understand that separation, but, hopefully your time as a roleplayer will prove that you do.

This player has a sense of humor. If the content of the post suggests otherwise, please err on the side of amusement and friendship, because that's almost certainly the intent. We're all on the same team: Team Roleplayer! Have a smile, have a chuckle, and have a slice of pie. Isn't pie great?
