Characters that irritate you/yours -

[viktor]

idiots? some people type in a manner to denote thier char as an idiot
some speak in third person.
but caps? are caps really that big of a deal? i mean.. oops sorry 'I mean'

i mean.. oops sorry 'I mean'

Thank you for proving my point

It makes me feel that either you are lazy or a noob. So many times I have seen a character rp without capitalization and end up robbin' and stealin'.

[viktor]

i almost never capitalise with any of my chars except with names, or in notes or when yelling , i've played since 2004 and have a lot of chars that not only defy the (no caps = idiot) assumption but have even ruled large places and for long times *shrugs*

[Slowness_Incarnate]

I am irritated personally by any character that speaks as if they never take a break for air. There is no punctuation, and everything they say is a long and verbose headache of words.The only thing they might remember is to place a period at the end of their enormous (approximately 15-40 sentence long) paragraph.

What irritates one of my chars is that lately every time my char and his wife are on the road and want some private time the next travel tick someone other chars are on the road.

i have had a few characters that have spoken like writing an essay but, i usually remember to punctuate so it's not a 200 word sentence at least i'm pretty sure i never forgot to punctuate....

Doesn't it say somewhere that you have to use a first and last name? At least I believe I read that somewhere when I started playing.

It used to say that on the character creation page but I changed it a while back since there were plenty of characters with only one name and they certainly weren't doing anything wrong. The main thing is that your name is namelike and not username-like, like something like "sexaygurl_69". I don't think I've ever actually seen something that awful but when there are characters named "killer" and "psycho", etc. I get the feeling their players have no idea what sort of a game Cantr is. With a name like that, people are at least going to give you a funny look, if not outright kill you as a security threat. At least nobody is going to give you a weapon, that's for sure.

That makes me think of Gaius. Pretty much every time I heard her speak, it made me cringe. And certainly set off my evil-detector.

Sneezy Bottoms is the closest example I've seen

I've seen one with numbers.

Recently, someone has sqawned several characters and with the same name and added a number incrementally. Unfortunately, this player hasn't heard of roleplaying and talks as both her player and her character. It's very irritating. Hopefully she/he will learn. Even in character she is making me cringe!

I've seen some chars in game use "lol" which just pisses me off.

that's like someone walking down the street and saying 'lol' when they see something funny, wonder how many wierd stares that would draw actually

Kids are using netspeak in conversation now. LOL, OMG, etc.

Yeah... I've heard it too back in Spain. It feels like it's even more stupid.
