Question about viewing RP info in-game.

[Hali]

Honestly, I'm very careful about what I tell people OOCly. Even the best RPers are prone to metagaming without realizing it. There are so many things about Corelyn that I do not have openly-listed, though I have things hinted on her wiki profile. However, it's nothing more than that, and I don't intend on putting them there (maybe on some other non-listed wiki page or something under a different name or something).

 

While it's nothing against my fellow RPers, it's simply a precaution I deign necessary with a character who has plentiful secrets that must be found out through RP, given she hides them very well.

 

That said, on WoW, I'd be one of those people that, in MRP, would list under history some few things that people in general would know about my characters, and anything further would simply be "RP to find out!"

I'm surprised nobody has yet made the obvious joke about Midlander males being feminine. They even have a face that, combined with some hair styles, could pass as a young woman.

 

Yeah, I call that the Yuki face.

 

It reminds me of Vaan from FFXII. However, I'd say most Midlander faces are twinky/boyish rather than feminine per se, with the exception of the one you mentioned.

I think a large part of the issue is the ridiculous standards of masculinity that a lot of MMO players have. A male being unkempt, dirty and with a beard that resembles the hair located on their rear end is not 'more masculine' than a male who is genuinely attractive and takes the time to keep themselves well groomed.

 

Of course, some of the male facial options are pretty feminine looking but they tend to be in the minority and are rarely used by most players and hardly ever present on NPC's. On the other hand, you have stupid terms such as 'bishonen' thrown around by deluded individuals who try to paint any male that is seen as even remotely attractive as feminine. What's worse is that they target entire playable races with their flawed logic.
