IC and OOC
- IC is IC, and OOC is OOC. Really, if I'm mean to you ICly doesn't mean I dislike you OOCly. Please seperate such things. Also, OOC information is OOC information..not IC.
Stories and RP
- Ultimately we're here to do one thing: Have fun. Having fun and telling stories. We're all collaborative writers of our story here, and this isn't some kind of contest where one has to beat or outperform the other.
- A rich and exciting story is key. Make it suspenseful, make it casual but funny, make it exciting. Make it advance a personal plot, or tell a larger story.
- Likewise, if you're godmodding you're ruining the story for others. Don't do it.
- Try to remember the impact of P-Day on your character's life in a realistic manner. 'My character's so been a furry before P-Day, so this is -awesome- for them!' is a horribly simple and convenient viewpoint. It's also boring.
- Please don't overuse cliches :< Constantly stuttering angst is overused. So is happy happy joy joy 'everything is so awesome now for no real reason!'. So is 'I've seen everything, I'm so BADASS!'. Characters are made of fine nuances and shades of grey, little quirks and subtle thoughts. The excessive overplaying of a certain handful of stereotypes has been done to death.
Sex!
- Sex is good! Sex can also get horribly boring really fast when it's the main idea behind the RP. It also gets horribly annoying if characters act like people who've seemingly never had any kind of upbringing before P-Day. Really, character development going from normal human to furry jizzing casually across the room in an IC day doesn't really show off a complex process or well thought out background. It shows off OOC fetishes having a higer priority than proper character development.
Getting started
- Don't be afraid to approach me with story ideas, or ideas on how to get RP going! Be it in a small scale or with groups, I'm up for it. Zephyr Labs can give opportunities on nanite and science related RP, be it as a patient, a Zephyr worker, or some ongoing experiment. Outside the labs I'm up for casual RP, intrigue, conflict with other factions or just exploring the unknown out in the wasteland. As I said, ideas are very welcome.
- If you approach Sil in a sexual manner, and you're not deeply involved with her, expect her to (usually) react as if somebody suddenly approached you in a sexual manner on the street. Because really, that's what your character is doing.
