Quote:Some people dont like drama and heartbreak. Simple as that. Some people like romantic movies with sweet happy end, while others despise that and watch horror movies.
Tastes vary and why should someone bother with something he doesnt like.
Thats a general point, and not including the topic of paying respect to your RP partners, which also plays a role ofc.
I kind of agree with Aysun. Instead of RP'ing what would and should happen to your character, it is pretty much RP'ing only what you are happy with. That is not IC at all, it is complete meta-gaming and OOC influence. Feelings cannot be controlled. If my character began to grow feelings for someone, no matter how much I knew it wouldn't(and maybe even OOCly didn't want it to) work, altering their route is not RP'ing surely. Its just picking and mixing.
Life isn't about everything going your way, and that should reflect on RP as well, otherwise(in my mind) its starting to feel a lot less like RP and more of a candy cane, happily ever after story in progress.
Anyways, I am not judging or telling anyone how to RP, I was just a little surprised. I understand that people like to RP in different ways but I was sure that not having an OOC influence on your characters was a foundation rule that everyone abided by. I can't understand the concept otherwise. If you are going to control the results then its almost as if you are rp'ing with yourself.
