If this game involves Nightwing punching Flamebird, Lor-Zod would approve.


Krypto-Cooties?

Oh dear I don't think Lor has met a teenager yet in his life since presumably it was all middle aged Kryptonians who made it out.

Plz God let this survive to the point where Lor hits puberty, just for the laughs.
And here I hoped the Kryptonian children would be playing "The adventures of Nightwing and Flamebird."

I know this is unrelated, but I actually dislike it when the user's own personal preferences becomes the only preferences their characters have. But anyway Ill go back to working on the Batpost.


Some people just aren't comfortable writing a sexuality outside of their own, heck, that's the main reason I've never made an outright homosexual character, that and my fear of misrepresenting that community or whatever the hell. Granted I could take any character I've made and just poof them into being gay without altering their personality at all, but there's just something that prevents me from doing it.

But Starfire makes more sense as a bisexual than a lesbian but nobody cares about my opinion so.

You could look at mine again just to excite yourself. And he still hasn't been moved to the repository.


As far as I know once you're approved you post them there yourself, 's what we've been doing for awhile now.

T&A


I see True Blood as more of T&A for the LBGT crowd, which is weird for me because I'm heterosexual.

I think.

I hope.
I don't watch Sherlock or Elementary or, well, any of those crime or detective or hospital or whatever shows. I do watch True Blood for some reason though. I just know that tumblr's all about the gay ships.

Probably because you're the only one with a computer! In my head anyway...
The way I read it he wasn't saying "build my character for me." but rather "Here are my ideas if you'd rather see one more than the other might as well say so." if I'm misreading the situation and he's actually crying for help during character creation, then yeah he should probably reconsider his character selection or whatever.

Some people can just make characters and do what they want with them with no regard to player opinion outside of "Does my sheet or history or whatever interfere with yours and if so how can we rectify it?" others just like to gather popular opinion on which of their ideas would be the most appreciated and go for it; now I'm not saying one should be afraid to do something others might not like, some of my best experiences have been when another writer told me they'd hated my idea at first and ended up coming around to it because of how well I wrote it, but why not, in an RP like this where you're surrounded by experience and knowledge and all that, ask for opinions so you don't end up ostracized because you don't ship Tony Stark with Captain America or something?

In case you can't tell midway through that I had no idea where I was going and just sort of gave up.
Lord Wraith said
Yes but we're saying you shouldn't need opinions because you should know exactly what want to see and do with your character.


There's also the possibility that he could WANT to do all of the ideas but also be fishing for a group consensus on which one THEY'D like to see. Who's going to be reading the story arc? Us. Why join an RP if it's less collaborative and more "GO WRITE YOUR OWN LITTLE FANFICTION WITH NO INPUT FROM ANYONE ELSE!"? I could go write a Green Arrow story on Microsoft Word (If I had a laptop) any day of the week, this is a shared universe of characters and more importantly, writers. I'm not in this solely to write Ollie or Grayson or Beast Boy or any of that shit, I'm here to have a fun interactive experience with my fellow writers and their characters, and hopefully give and receive criticism, praise, and advice so I can grow into a better writer and possibly help others do the same, ya dig?
