My SE account is DraconAscendant, if that's all you guys need, but I don't have an account on any of those sites. Personally, I think someone undeserving will win, so I'm not going to waste my time with it. It'll be exactly like all those Steam/EA 'giveaways' where people who sockpuppet still manage to not get caught and win.

When do I get an interview? *Pout.* I'll have to listen to it later... Then again, I need to listen to -all- of the podcasts.

I wonder if anyone else is interested in this concept. I played a FF-based tabletop before using some system called "Zodiac" or something like that, but I've never considered using more mainstream D&D and the like. Anyone?

Discuss wut?

On a somewhat related note, Pure comedy relief is a twelve year old boy talking to a 40 year old woman about how he worries that because he has a girlfriend, and kissed her, that she'll get pregnant. Yes, I kid you not, this wasn't an actual RP guild (It was just a loose collection of people who played PSO with me) but we were just hunting one day, and he seriously asks "If I kiss a girl, and I don't wear a condom, can she get pregnant?" Lulz ensued.

In America, it's more mature-themes to say the word "FucK" than to stab someone in the chest until all you see is a pool of blood. Also, I didn't mean to open up such a large topic of discussion... Also, I didn't move it out of the thread. HMM! But, anyway, I wasn't implying anything in general, it was merely a question of taste. Setting an age standard for a guild is a double-edged sword. We should have a not s****y ESRB system for guilds. Like E guilds are LOL FAMILY FRIENDLY, and M guilds are more accepting of violent happenings and amounts of cussing and the stray nudist. But, the ESRB sucks, so.

Ah, Ninja Security. Good firm.

I'm not complaining, just questioning. Curiousity only kills cats, remember? ... OH NO, FLUFFY! WHAT DID I DO?!?! ... But, no, seriously, it was just a question. Ignore me. Good luck with the hunt for members.

Ah, LOLsuits. However, putting a sticker like that on your guild is just going to imply that you're having raunchy e-sex and stuff like that, if you'll pardon my reach. Saving your ass is all well and good, but "18+" ain't gonna save your ass. Stupid parents have been getting their way past their stupid kids like they do.

Question, Why the 18 year old restriction? That seems a bit... well... Derogatory. I mean, I was in my XI LS when I was 14, and while I wasn't the most mature of persons, I definitely wasn't the -most- immature.

I hope my baby girl is half as cute as your's, Crystal. Though, I must slay you now, as I can't open this thread anymore while it's on this page, otherwise my fiance will start crying 'cause she can't make little fairy wings for her to wear for infant pictures.

..... you mean it's not? I'm gonna have to roll with Grimace (Or however the hells you spell his name) on this one. Companionship can be completely overrated.

Was that first part to me? That's not what I was saying, if it was. And, I've ac- Wait, I already said that, derp. Yeah, it's like that, Kashe. It's actually somewhat fun, if you believe it. Armoa and Trysta (said Mithra my character 'crushed' on) had alot of good tender moments that made it clear that -it could work-, but it just never did.

"I think you're overreacting, Brother." Zar'ccia stated, frowning as she tapped her older brother on the forehead with a well-manicured nail from a dusken finger. Xae'fan glanced up at his younger sister, looking past bangs that framed her face made of platinum blonde hair to let his bad mood settle on her. "Overreacting? No one else is being sent away, just me. Why is that, Zar'ccia?" The red-haired male grit his teeth at the dark-skinned Elezen woman, closing his book as he lost interest in it with this new conversational topic. But, at her look of sadness, he sighs, "Forgive me. I don't like this much, I suppose it -is- for the best, but I can't help but find myself angry with everyone again. Even Haruk, and Nmenin agree with mother." He glances to the side, irritated visibly with his two friends. "They believe in you, Xae'fan. And, I do too." Zar'ccia smiles, heavily glossed purple lips curling. "It's time one of us got away from this place. There's nothing for you here, not with how smart you are." The man grunted, settling the book he'd been reading into his bag, glancing at the three bags of his things he'd readied for the journey. Clothes, some books, and what little supplies he had for such a journey. Suddenly, he raised his amber eyes to his younger sister, "You're such a liar." All Zar'ccia could do is continue to smile. "I love you too." ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- After the long wait for passage aboard the ship, and meeting a rather interesting miqo'te in the process, he finally began to make his way home. He still had things to do, let alone with how his thoughts were already swirling from meeting the dusken skinned woman. His abode, while not large by any measure, was large enough for him and his sisters when they 'occasionally' stopped in. He sat down in his somewhat noisy wicker chair, and settled his feet up on the cushion propped atop a small table, before pulling a book out, and beginning to read as his thoughts swirled about in his head. I'm not sure how I feel about this situation... It was so hard to read, that he growled to himself, irritated as he tossed the book back into his already packed bags, even though it likely wouldn't be another moon before the boat would sail, let alone how early he was already packed. Why am I in such a rush, if we're still waiting for so long? Am I really that anxious to leave? If so, why do I feel like I don't want to... Sighing, he stood to gather water from his basin, taking a deep drink as he settled back into his comfortable reading position. I'm sick to the Hells with my family, it's true... But, I can't be angry with them if they're helping me to do what I want. He sighs, scratching his hair, noting once again that he needs to reapply the red dye to his hair so he wouldn't be just another Duskwight with black skin, and white hair. "I look strange." -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I replied. Needs more story. Also, PUFFY SHIRT IS PUFFY.

Anyway, since I didn't actually get the post out I wanted to before: RP Relationships are difficult creatures, like regular relationships, but you don't even get the benefit of HAWT NEKKID LUVV after a fight. XI, my character only had one particular attraction, to this mithra in my LS who was played by a guy. And, we were pretty good friends OOC, so it wasn't all that creepy or anything, even though I was 14 and prone to being a really misogynistic pancake. My character chased after his for the entirety of my time on XI, but both wasn't on her radar, was on her radar while she was with someone else, and was 'going down a dark path' a la Anakin and Padme style, before that movie actually came out. Then, moving onto WoW, my character was meant to just be a casual comedic relief character, but he steadily got fleshed out into a serious character again, he jumped from monogamous relationship to monogamous relationship (Due to some rather bad friends) until he became the manwhore that he was that slept with basically every woman (IC) on the server, before meeting my now fiance's character and settling down to finally rest in piece since I'm letting him die. Along with D&D, and WoD, my particular experience with RP Relationships is this: They're great for character development, and plot... But, you just have to be careful, like with all things. All it takes is one psycho person who doesn't know the difference, or one person who completely does a 180 on you to mess up your character forever, and if you aren't willing to accept that, you shouldn't do it in the first place. Put simply: Be prepared if you do it.

It's your own fault, Axl. Also, IT IS IMPORTANT TO MY CHARACTER'S DEVELOPMENT THAT HE GET A CATGIRL HAREM! .. .... ...... ....... No?

Again, it's more from using things out of context. Like how you wouldn't light a prepackaged cigarette with a zippo in the middle of the middle ages (GET IT?! BA DUM TISH!) But, that's the best example I can give, so... Also: I hate people who roleplay half-breeds as if they're the perfect half of two different things. There's gotta be some horrible defect of some kind in there. Half-elves aren't just tall humans with pointy ears, maybe they're horribly short-lived for human OR elf lifetimes.

There's french in the very naming of locations in the Elven kingdom. Actually more to the point... We don't speak English there either. English is simply the most widely accepted 'translation' of whatever language is being used in Vanadiel because we're (mostly) Americans. In Germany it's a different case and in Japan it's a different case. If somebody uses French words it's no more absurd that pretending, in game, everyone is speaking English. Well of course, but that's just my example. When you play a game that has established languages, and someone suddenly starts going "OUI OUI BAGGUETE DU FROMAGE?!" don't you want to slap them?

Well, I was horribly guilty of reusing my FFXI character on WoW, then making him one of my standards in D&D, and WoD. But, he needs to rest. I've killed him. So, now I have thousands of folders of D&D, and WoD characters. His daughter, however, I still enjoy on occasion. But, it's hard not to enjoy a hermaphroditic teenage girl with no idea of the ideal of tact, and is loonier than Bugs Bunny on a bad day.

Guilty, until recently.

Just raging here, so if it's some multi-posting stuff, forgive me. People who can't make an original concept. People who drag their characters through every multiverse, and pretend it's the same person, with the same powers. People who play a character as if they looked up tsundere, or some other cliche tv-show/anime/manga/movied/etc. ideal and look at it -every- -time- their character has to think about which shoe goes on which foot. People who are one race, but raised by another. (It's fine in doses, but "ORIGINAL IDEA DO NOT STEAL", guys.) Dark/Depressing/Completely emo characters with pasts that are filled with parental abuse/parental death. We dig it, it was cool when we were 14 (Heck, I did it too, but at least I -tried- to pretend like my character didn't really care about it, until it was good for SOMEONE ELSE'S PLOT AND NOT MY OWN DRAMA WHORING.) Drama whores. Replying TO EVERYTHING. "I agree" SCREW YOU, NO YOU DON'T, KNOW YOUR ROLE, OTHERWISE YOU WOULDN'T HAVE SAID THAT ANYWAY. (Being silly.) Elves who are actually small, humans who are actually tall, tarutaru/lalafell who're actually psychotic monsters, mithra/mi'qote who are actually manthra/lesbians, Galka who are old and wise and OMGWTF I HAVE DESCENDED FROM SUN TSUNG VON HITLER. Also: Characters who speak in tongue outside of regular chat. Accents are cool, overused of course, but cool. But, WE DON'T SPEAK FRENCH IN THE WORLD OF FINAL FANTASY. (This coming from me, who considers "Oui?" and "Non" a piece of the francais/cajun accent.)

Just because I idiot doesn't mean I'm an drunk! .... Wait... *Glances at the bottles of alcohol on his desk behind him.* What's my desire for prettily-shaped glass bottles to do with my horrible southern english?

Oh man, here's a category I've lived time and time again. Yes, it interests me that much that I must post. Honestly, beyond random stupid cybering when I was younger, FFXI and WoW were the only places I had 'relationships' on actual MMOs, otherwise it's been RP or tabletop games through messengers and the like. So, I'll just stick to the MMO aspect. Back in FFXI, when I was in my RP LS, my character was rather attached to this one mithra who was both uninterested, interested but not single, and single but uninterested again throughout our mutual careers in the LS. Needless to say, my character was quite the bumbler, since I played the rather perverted humor-centered anti-hero who evolved more into a emo-fag as time went on, and I actually got a larger piece of the spotlight thanks to some bawwing on my part (Mind you I was 14 at the time, and horribly immature). Needless to say, I moved on with this character to WoW, of course in a different format. WoW, however, made me want to not really have anything to do with 'drama' or 'serious RP'. So I made him into an undead with a horribly lusty mind set, and a bunch of parts falling off inappropriately, or, at best, him detaching them for his own amusement. But, he developed slowly into his old slightly less emo anti-hero self, before some really bad RP gave me the idea to make him into an anti-villain, which apparantly made him 20x more desireable. Don't look at me, I kid you not. Anyway, at this stage, either every 'female RPer' on the server is either horribly loose, or he's just that charming, and he becomes the manwhore of the server, while I somewhat god-mod the shit out of him while trying to explain his evolution and character role as he wanders around the world due to not really having any real story to follow except the firm rear ends of assorted horde women. Then, I meet my now fiance online, and we set our characters up slowly, and they end up married with quarter-dragon babies (Shh.) My point: RP Relationships, great for character development, Bad for your sanity. HYEHEUHEYEKJUEHHYEUYEGHEUYEHEUEHEYEHUEHEYHEEYEYEUH. But, no, seriously. Don't take it too lightly, that kind of human interaction never really leaves you the same.
