My Very Brief Bio

Male, 33 years old. (I'm even more dead than before.)

Likes (other than writing and roleplaying): I'm into all genres of music. I love to cook. I love the outdoors, and walking through the park near my house. (Yes, really.) I read a lot of thriller/mystery novels. And I usually watch seasonal anime. (Or cooking shows. Because Western Media provides even fewer things that are worth watching.)

But as for my many other neglected hobbies, I've played basically every sport. (Soccer and Bowling being my favorite of the bunch.) And I'm trying to play more video games. (Going through my never-ending Steam library.) Plus, I've dabbled in making electronic & metal music, and I used to play a number of instruments. (Guitar, French Horn, etc.)

My 1X1 Interest Check: SleepingSilence's Tavern (Want 1x1 RP's? Please come in.)


Hope you have a wonderful day!

@Vilageidiotx I honestly don't know. It really does seem like it's becoming a real thing. I mean like I said, so many comedians, won't go to college campuses anymore...

For your grandma being offended at that, sort of brings me to an observation. I think there has always been a movement of older generations of people, thinking the things young people do are secretly evil and corrupting them. Books, Music, Art, Hobbies, TV, Internet, Video games, Tattoo's. What have you...but I've never in a long time. Seen people in their 20's, and people who are NOT old...making this no longer an old vs new divide. I don't feel like going to deep into it. But when you have fucking people in their 20's telling me shit equivalent to someone decades older than them like a fox news anchor explaining that Watch Dogs turns you into a hacker. SOMETHING, is going wrong in the current world.
@Vilageidiotx Fair enough. I guess it sort of is just by simple definition that my discussion does sort of boil down too "back in meh day." I dunno, I just think talent has been lost and growing stale for a while now. I don't think Political Correctness necessarily is the ONLY reason. Maybe arguably not the biggest influence. But something in me just feels the way culture is now. That the new "funny" people just aren't bothering for a multitude of reasons. I mean that's one reason stand up comedy is dying in younger circles, people can't take jokes and don't want to offend and these people will grow up as the next generation of artists, musicians, comedians and such?

But that's beside the point. I just want to be able have something to watch again dammit. >.>
@pugbutterMy mistake then. :3 Was just trying to make sure you don't eat a ban for something silly.
@Dynamo Frokane Not really. :D

Aside from the two in row I mentioned. I'm too lazy to do so. :D

I'd argue that's more of a forum thing. :D

It's okay...really wasn't my point. :D

A counter vs just repeating the same with no additional evidence would be nice. But I think I'd rather go for my daily walk then continue this. :D

I dunno about that...I think there's an entire section of people that literally loathe talking about politics. I'm becoming one of them. And I was bored...clearly the real reason most people post in here instead of RPing on the Rping forum. :D

Disagree. Nothing on this forum discussing politics ever stayed civil. But clearly at an impasse. :D

I don't even remotely look forward to the next fight that's bound to take place. And shit my face is stuck like this. :D

I like RPoL.net although it's not very popular

Pros:
  • I like how when you join a RP, you join under your character's name, not your username. So unless you're communicating with other players on the side, no one knows who you are except the GM. It's great for keeping personal grudges out of the RP.
  • HTML is also much more versatile than BBCode.
  • I also really like how each RP is basically its own subforum, with little sub-threads you can separate accordingly therein. One thread, locked and stickied, containing rules, another for worldbuilding stuff, another for a character roster......great organization on this site
  • going one step further, you can toggle which players are able to see which threads. So you can have several stories going on simultaneously, and keep most your players out of the loop to avoid metagaming. Or if you have co-GMs then you can give them special moderation threads, for discussing penal actions against belligerent players. That sort of thing. You can probably create a thread which only you can see, and use it to take GMing notes for future subplots, etc.
  • If you like tabletop, the site has a ton of built-in die roller RNGs, with built-in modifier features and such.
  • Finding games you like is extremely fast and easy since you can narrow your search according to tags/keywords, game system (DD 3.5, GURPS, whatever), activity level...


Cons:
  • Moderators are draconian as fuck and also sort of moronic. I was nineteen years old when I got banned for being "underaged" in an Adult-rated game, and when I asked them to provide the proof which made them believe this decision was correct, they basically said they don't need proof since they have a "better safe than sorry" policy when it comes to minors and statutory sexual harassment or whatever the fuck.
  • Also their portrait system sucks and is useless.
  • As aforementioned, it's a pretty small community.
  • If you limit your game searches to "free-form" only (basically free-writing, like we do here), your options are severely limited, since most games are tabletop-based.


@pugbutter A minor heads up. Not 100% sure that's allowed. Not that it ever seems to be enforced. But directly advertising other sites on a forum, is probably not a great idea. Just don't actually like them next time, and tell them to google it. :3
