Given the recent 'Seeking MRP' threads, I have to wonder why they label themselves as Mature Roleplayers.
My interpretation of mature roleplay is roleplay where the themes, actions, and consequences are discussed/played out/handled in a mature manner OOC by all parties involved (mature roleplay does not mean the characters have to be mature). In a sense, we should all be mature roleplayers.
Unfortunately, some people think they're sly and use the label as a means to solicit ERP without looking trashy. (spoilers: you look trashy)
Correct. We should display a fine sense of maturity in RP. Level headed and cool thinking are two very important tools in that aspect.Â
And conversation. Very important magical thingy, that! As mentioned by pretty much everyone in the thread. Remember, CONVERSE!Â
I get the feeling the two are linked. Only a person with a collected methodology of thinking would go into conversation and try and avoid repercussions of any sort, or rectify any misunderstandings. Immature people tend to flare up and go bonkers for little to no reasons. (Like children. That's why you almost never call a 5 year old a mature person  )
But, erm, I'm not sure I understood what you mean by the spoliers in your last sentence.Â
