Liadan, I have something to tell you.

I'm judging! Oh gods, how I'm judging! Oh wait, you didn't mean all six at once, did you?
I've long been of the 'play the character see where things go' camp, always keep tabs on your RP partners make sure you're not weirding them out. Many a year ago, I used only fade-to-black. Before that, back in the days when I swore I would never do anything so blush-worthy, I got labeled an ERPer anyway and harassed as such despite my protests and the part where I kept my distance from everything even slightly more heavy than PG.
So... at some point, I stopped giving a crap. I do whatever I want and generally just try not to offend people. I get embarrassed walking past people making out on park benches in real life, so I try to keep similar situations out of sight of poor other gamers.
Back in the last game I played, I decided to do something new and play a straight up, shall we say, courtesan. I had intended her to be kind of a joke, but she ended up being one of the most interesting characters I've played and, curiously, strongly monogamous, which made her very, very bad at her day job.
Just to say, ehhh, people who get their panties in a twist about panties should probably take a day off. And people who troll ERPers are just like any other brand of trolls and should be dealt with the same way, however you choose to do so. Not feeding them is the standard advice. We're here to have fun. Try not to stomp on other people's fun (whether that's by avoiding flashing strangers or avoiding throwing rocks at people holding hands, same concept) and get back playing?
