It also makes most role players look bad to non role players because non RPers always stereotype us and assume that we ERP majority of the time.Â

Futanari or not, ERP shouldn't even exist which is why I avoid those benches like plague.

Which is a fairly ignorant statement and blankets RPers who do it. If you beleive sex serves no narrative point at all, you aren't even looking at any form of fiction over the last 10,000 years.

Gosh I hope I quoted right.... I am in IT irl and can't use forums to save my life.

Anyways, everyone has the right to their opinion. Even if you think they are wrong. The most you can do is work with the person individually to try to explain why you disagree and think they need to rethink things. Turning the matter into a 'community issue,' isn't going to solve anything, but rather alienate folks.

Basically, the person you quoted has issues with intimate encounters being role-played... it is her opinion. It only affects her role-playing experience. If she does not want to Role-play with folks who do such... that is her right with the 15 dollars.

The role-play content is purely catered to those involved. In reality, it doesn't matter if it is tasteful... well written... or full of drama, evenÂ if it is for a cheap kick or even for IRL self-pleasure (aka fapping). It is nobody's business except those involved. The moment the another person'sÂ role-play goes to private channels your opinion of what is happening is irrelevant to anyone but yourself. You can have it all you want, and decide how you personally will interact with the person, but you really cannot force them to share that opinion.

Saying things like: "I only ERP tasteful, I only ERP when it fits the story." are your personal opinions as to when ERP is ok FOR YOU. However, you honestly do not have to justify the fact you engage in that sort of role-play. By creating this 'classification' of ERPs in reality you are just attempting to justify your own reasons for ERP, something in the end no-one has to do regardless as to what they are.

(E-yep screwed up formatting.. sorry for making you undefined.)

^ I don't see how that means we can't talk about the merits and flaws of sexual RP though? It's a community, for discussion.

My remarks were in reference to the original post and classificationÂ and 'quality' of the individuals who fall into those classifications,Â as well as the motivation/need for said post. I was not remarkingÂ toward the merits and flaws of sexual interaction in RP. ThatÂ in my opinion is entirely different matter than the original post.Â If someone offers up personal experience that is their choice to make it public... and I guess everyone's business?

My apologies if I did not make that clear.

Everyone is entitled to their opinion correct, however, an opinion formed of ignorance holds less weight than one informed by facts. But that is not the purpose of this thread.

What people do is up to them. Its their sub, their playtime and their characters.

-Any- public places and -any- public chat.

Just because you like it doesn't mean I should be obligated to read your stuff in details. I don't care about romantic novels, and several romantic novels do not go beyond and describe about people's sexual genitalia and elaborate enough for people to start feeling disturbed. There is a huge difference between erotic novel and erotic chat. Novel is when one can read privately and erotic chat is when someone slips it in public. If someone does it in quicksand, making out then starts touching the opposite character's genitalia then that's where I put my keyboard and blacklist you. I don't care if you like it or if you are the absolute jerk. I didn't play this game and role play to talk things erotically.Â

It's not always the abusive jerks. Sometimes people just get too carried away and then I have to be like "please don't write those things in detail for anyone to see it." I don't even care most of ERPers who Do those because I don't actually read them. I only blacklist ones who I see in public chat and is when I say "no " to them. It's not ignorance, and I don't need to give them second chances. If you ERP in private chat, good for you because chances are that I won't even notice it until you describe it OOCly in other chat like linkshell or pm or free company chat and I'd just tell you to stop talking, or blacklist you for taking it too far. Again, if you talk to me in game and ERP is because it's likely that you haven't posted in publicly through certain chats at certain place.

Most of my friends who are never roleplays end up laughing about it because of how most of these "bad" ERPers as you say.

This applies to Camp Bronze Lake, Costa Del Sol or Residence Areas and your own FC houses. If you don't do it in party chat or private message, then that stuff will be annoying. Not all 7,000 players want to see anyone ERP in public /say or /emote

Or /yell or /shout if you are that kind of tea person.

Point of clarification. I can understand erp posts sent via say, shout or yell, but what if we have two people in bikinis sitting on top of one another in the Quicksand or the Wench? Cant see any words, but poses change occasionally and so you know they must be doing something? Is that a sore spot as well?

I think you're preaching to the choir. There may be one or two exceptions but I'm willing to assume that the majority of role-players posting on this site are well aware of just when and where it's appropriate to indulge in ERP and when and where it isn't.

If people don't adhere to that and end up being caught out then the best thing to do is either ignore it, report it or just shrug and laugh it off.

Aldotsk · **10-02-2014, 08:04 AM**

I wish I can say that, but majority of the time when people say "your character is your character", I am sure some in the community use that statement and abuse it by giving itself freedom of speech. If someone ERPs in this community (I also doubt anyone does it here) and then does it publicly, and we tell him/her to stop, chances are that the person will say "it's my character and I like what I am doing and it's a freedom of speech" No, it's not freedom of speech. This isn't America and it's final fantasy XIV where there are conservative players outside of Europe and American regions who would not like to read what you say in details.

ArmachiA · **10-02-2014, 08:10 AM**

^ UH no. because "Freedom of speech" doesn't exist in an MMO since it's run by a private business. ERP is against TOS, most RPers are smart enough to take it to /party.

I know this because a lot, a lot more than will admit, ERP. THey are very discreet about it. You're assuming a lot here.

Oh, bubbie. I can name quite a few people on this very site who ERP.

Then I don't see why it's a problem about me blacklisting ERPers who don't do it discreetly. It's my choice of what I want to do

Also, I really don't want to know your circle of ERP community.

ArmachiA · **10-02-2014, 08:17 AM**

No one said it was a problem. You're just painting all ERPers with a wide brush here and I'm correcting you for the sake of other people who may want to listen to the discussion, as you don't really seem to want to discuss it.

And I don't have a circle, I don't rp with a lot of these folks, I've just had very frank talks with a lot of them oocly and, get this, NEVER JUDGED. I know, shocking.

Erik Mynhier · **10-02-2014, 08:29 AM**

I was going to post a video here to lighten the mood. In keeping with the topic I was going to post Monty Python's "Sit on my face, and tell me that you love me." But that may be a bit much, so we'll use this instead.
