In other news, is it worth asking a mod to throw a delete grenade into this whole thread, walk away slowly, and build a new colony on another thread with an atmosphere to sustain RPG life?

The Bureau of Unconventional Crime

I'm a student looking after an ill family member during my holidays, hence all the free time. Constant supervision, little actual activity. It's pretty dull but I can't have a job at the same time - hence returning to RPing.

If you wanna take on Brovo, be my guest.
I won't be doing it any time soon.

LOTS of crazy in this thread. Holy shit.Oh, and something to get this thread back on track:Another thing I hate is when people make characters who cover an entire spectrum. Something like "Oh this dude is a total badass who can kill anyone and anything without remorse BUT he's also SUPER vulverable and flawed so you should feel bad for him!"

Or completely on-the-fence information to try to de-flaw their character.

"Has a bit of a temper but not too much."
"Is a bit of a dreamer but is serious when it counts."

or the ubiquitous "When you get over <Trait X>, s/he is a valuable ally."

Anybody currently playing that hasn't posted?

Sounds like it's not a steal for you, then. :P

Maybe this instead?

I politely suggested they do just that. :)

Resolving Character Conflict: A look into non-tabletop engagement

Sarcor said How can it be done where everyone is happy?

Players are not their characters, and I'd hope that people posting in Advanced would be aware of this. What would make the player happy would be a satisfyingly dramatic consequence of whatever the conflict was for their character. Their character, however, may not be so fond of the results.

In a section dedicated to detail, development and general thought-through-ness, my best solution would be to have the players debate the most interesting results of the conflict for their characters' arcs beforehand. If they disagree on what would be more interesting, then there's the good old-fashioned compromise / GM steps in tactic.
