As most of you know, I have a page dedicated to my bio and limits. Here it is Now because it is a link in my profile, most aren't bothered enough to click it because of whatever excuse, " It wont load, It freezes my computer" Etc. Because of this, I will \kindly\ explain if they hit a limit of mine, that it is not a possibility in RPing. There is 17 limits of mine, three of them repeat so I don't count them. In this, the issue most have is my 'Fighting' limit, because most of the city has a particular liking to fighting.
Why is this? Why?
Let me explain: Shoin is a mean guy.
He's not kind and he's extremely aggressive to anyone
he doesn't know how to talk to people, really and he
does not understand the basics of having manners.
( He's also about 100lbs and 5" He's not the best
competitor for brawling as he will go down within a hit or two, and thats not very fun.) Meaning if you walk by him, chances are he'll call you ugly or stupid. Now you'll be like: But,,.. Shoin, If he does that then he's asking for it. And you are RIGHT. He is asking for it. He's practically screaming for you to teach him a lesson.. But, one thing. I don't do fist fights. So, you're thinking. " Well I can't do shit now." False. There is more then one way to teach someone a lesson. Brawls aren't the only thing that can fuck someone up and essentially teach them you mean business. What is there? That's for your imagination to run wild. Just be mindful of my limits.
Why do I bring this up?
Because in many many MANY situations, I'll be my antagonist self, and someone will give me lip about my limits, I'll explain what I have now, and they'll respond. " WELL, THATS JUST MY CHARACTER. HE\SHE FIGHTS. THAT'S IT." Last I checked, the sim wasn't renamed "Fight club, The sim." Then they'll proceed to ignore me for whatever reason, perhaps because solely fighting is their one goal in life. I'm not about that, as much as I'd like to get my 'Victim' tag from the mass amount of times I end up in the hospital, I'm good, thanks.
Now onto my point, because of your profile, your limits, etc. And it's abit childish to be honest, because someone wont cater to a fetish for whatever reason, that doesn't mean you cant RP with them ATALL. I'm a gay man IRL and ICly, I love men, I like dicks. But that doesn't limit me to JUST rping with gay men. I RP with Hetero men and females of all kinds, I work my way around it. Improvising, folks. You don't need to get salty.
Now, onto profiles.
For some reason, alot of people don't read them. Why? Who knows, I make sure, anytime RP with ANYONE to perv the living piss out of their profile, click every link, read bios and limits. With this said, I'd like to say my profile is pretty organized and to the point. Four links containing my bio and additional info, and a simple about. One thing I would like to point out for everyone in DE, is on my 'About' if you scroll all the way down, there is an' OOC and IC limit, containing something that personally effects me. It reads:
Alot ALOT of people have issues with this.
"My char says 'Kid' To everyone, he\she is this old! This tall"
I...I don't care, I'm gonna be honest. If people wont respect my simple limit that I don't care t RP with you, don't throw a fit because I won't tolerate my avatar being related to a child in anyway in a rape sim.(Even if the term is endearing, still, no.) That's just fucking gross. So yeah, I'm alittle anal about it.
So,.. This all comes down to two things.
1. I will always read your profile,and if it's blank I will personally as you what your limits and bio are (Or click the titler above your head.) ALWAYS.I will always respect you.
2. Respect the players decisions and choices.
I do encourage all of you to make an' F-list if you don't already. Your choice.
Sorry for bitching it was more or less a rant, I'm not angry at anyone in particular.
