Let's B!tch. I feel it's a healthy release for our roleplay annoyances 2.0

@Peridot

Nowhere in your rules did you say we had to have a 100% completely original character sheet. I have never been strong at writing personality sections so instead I thought of taking a miggs bryers test with my character in mind and then posting the summery of what personality I got. Just taking the test took over 20 minutes so to say it meant I didn't care about the role play was not fair.

@World Traveler
Devin Coal:
While there are numerous issues with your sheet, I won't bother pointing out every single thing. The fact that half of your personality was simply copied from a personality website proves that you don't care about the rules, the roleplay, or putting any effort into your writing. Please don't apply again.

You said there were numerous issues with my sheet and I assumed that meant I missed more hidden code messages hence my original post.

I have reviewed every rule on this site and borrowing a paragraph doesn't seem to be written anywhere. The only thing I found after searching now was an issue where someone was plagiarizing during a competition which of course would not be allowed.

So there is my confusion. I assumed because at the start you said there were numerous issues that I had somehow missed another hidden treasure. From where I am I seemed to have been kicked out for breaking a rule that is not stated anywhere on your list of rules.

General Rules:
Standard Forum rules apply.
What I says goes. If I want you gone, you go. Please do us all a favour and not make a scene when this occurs, otherwise Mods will get involved.
Co-GMs are to be respected! While I have final say, they will be permitted to constructively criticise character sheets, call out bad behaviour, and prod people when they become inactive.
On that note, respect everyone in the OOC. I don't want bickering clogging up the roleplay. If you have a genuine problem with another roleplayer, please PM all of the GMS and let us sort it.
This is an apply roleplay! Do not post your finished character sheet in the character tab unless it has been accepted. Finished characters may be submitted in the OOC, or via PM to myself.

Characters & Posting:
No God Modding. Should go without saying, but you never know.
No Mary/Gary-Sue characters, self-inserts, or anything along that vein. I want some realistic, balanced and preferably original characters.
More rules in regards to character creation can be found in the character sheet.
I'll be looking closely at characters related to canon characters. It'll be unavoidable in some cases, considering how much crossover the Pureblood families have. Still, I'll be monitoring them and deciding as they come if I'll allow the relation or not.
I'm not allowing Half-Breeds at the moment, due to the likelihood it's only done to make a character more "In-Depth" or "Different". I'd prefer people to write their characters without using lycanthropy or distant relation to a gnome as a plot point or way of explaining why said character is so perfect/angsty/a loner/etc. That said, if you have a particularly good idea involving half-breeds, send me a PM about it with your finished CS. I'm not totally unreasonable.
I expect at least two well-written paragraphs per post. This is a Casual roleplay, so I expect correct English spelling, correct grammar, a use of complex/compound sentence structures and realistic character development. To correctly gauge your writing standard, I'd like a writing sample. The writing prompt and where to put the sample is somewhere in the first OOC page.
Please read all of the IC posts before you post yourself. You could be missing valid information or interactions with your own character if you skip them.

Here are the rules for this site as well.

I made one of your rules bold because I figured everyone should know that after you asked me to leave I did just that and didn't argue. I simply accepted and figured I missed a rule. In that annoyance I realized how many hoops I had to clear and figured it was just a change in community culuture. To blow off a little steam I posted here without mentioning you, your RP, or anything that related to you at all. After that you and your Co-GM jumped in and started to attack me.

So please can we leave this? I have already moved to creating my own harry potter role play after getting an idea from the character I made for your role play.

Accio Egypt (A Harry Potter Role Play)

I am going to get started on the IC; however I would enjoy maybe having one more character. It would possibly work out with us having one Ravenclaw character and then we would have one person from each main house. If anyone knows someone who enjoys a good HP role play then we can get launched. If we don't get anyone by Christmas we can move forward all the same.

Note that I have my first IC post scheduled to be posted the day after Christmas so we will hopefully have this role play up and running before the New Year.

Accio Egypt (A Harry Potter Role Play)

@RumikoOhara Accepted! Not sure why.... but I feel like she is going to hand out a few phone numbers with that friendly Hufflepuff style haha

Maximum City: The Superhero Sandbox (OOC is Up, Currently Accepting)

@Dynamo Frokane

Understood. I will make the character my own for sure with backstory, goals, and other aspects. Was more wondering if we were allowed to borrow power sets from known characters. We are right as rain :)

Accio Egypt (A Harry Potter Role Play)

@Loki Odinson

Good Questions! As we will now be having characters coming from multiple schools I think we will have the role play start with everyone posting them arriving to a Port Key that will take them to the start of the role play which will be Egypt's version of Diagon Alley Diagon Alley.

The role play will start one week AFTER students ended school giving everyone a chance to see their families and pack for the different destination. I am keeping how everyone will travel to Egypt a surprise for now, but it will involve magic pulling them to Egypt.

SPY ACADEMY: An Espionage Story

I would love to learn more as well!

Maximum City: The Superhero Sandbox (OOC is Up, Currently Accepting)

@Dynamo Frokane would having characters based on super heroes from comics be possible? I have an idea for a character based on Daredevil I wouldn't mind exploring, but want to make sure that is okay first.

Accio Egypt (A Harry Potter Role Play)

@Loki Odinson Accepted. What a fun character! I am excited for you to share the new school with this role play!

@Ejected Accepted. Great details! Hopefully the class doesn't miss their muggle bus cause she is getting ready in the morning :)

I welcome both of you to put your character sheets in the CS thread.

Do either of you have any questions for me by the way? Happy to answer them

@Silver Carrot

But to hid so well that it almost is impossible to find seems just mean (Especially when the place they hid it is impossible to find when on the phone.

@DeadbeatWalking

I am not denying that at all. When I was on here years ago that was a very standard practice and I was never denied for it. If that was the only reason then okay, but the feedback was I was missing a bunch of things so I figured I missed other hidden prompts and whatnot.

I used to be a GM and always found the hidden code to be a neat idea but in the end it didn't stop people from flaking. Rather it often seemed to add to the brain drain of getting it all set up and that meant people quitting before the role play even started.

Fun fact though - It was also the fact that I more or less found the writing prompt not by actually finding the code in the raw code form (Which is impossible on a phone) but I read everyone else and noticed a pattern.

Like I said I am rusty and it seems the culture of this website has shifted. I will just need to learn it again.
