One could argue that their characters should refrain from sexual activity since it could be illegal in some countries, but if it's not illegal in the country of that player then what right do others have to put a limit on them? We have a lot of good players under 18 and some not so good players over 18, so it doesn't necessarily define maturity.



It is the 16 year old, and it isn't the age that gets me. When certain words are used, Seko, it really bugs me to the point that I can't rp with that person in a certain way. Just me.

In my experience on cantr, lots of the female players play better men than the men do.

Haha, I agree. I think I play the male characters rather well myself. I always have both.

I know my limits. I couldn't be a good woman if my life depended on it. I'd rather just stick to being a guy and know that I am doing it right.

I think I do a pretty good job with female characters, but others can be the judge of that.

One female character as an experiment and its working better then I thought it would. She's BEYOND stereotypical, I apologize, but at least nothing horribly. (Not slutty or overly bitchy etc) She's all bubbly and happy... most the time.

My characters are sorta... odd and the only complaints I hear about them are that they can annoy... which is slightly the idea. :lol:

Edit: On an on-topic note... I'm slowly not wanting to know who plays who anymore. :(

Well so you know, your bubbly char is loved and doesn't want that char to change one bit. :wink:

And I understand not wanting to know who plays who. My chars have a tendency to act differently when I know who is behind the char. I dont like that but it happens.

I've been told I play them chicks pretty well. :roll: I must say I agree, except in some love-like situations, I suppose. But that's something I fail at in general, doing it subtly and all. Especially with my drama queen gay char, but that's just sorta his personality and all.

I think I RP females well, they're usually not anywhere close to stereotypical, and the ones that could be considered remotely 'bubbly' have unseen problems aswell.

My most recent female is a few marbles short.

You do *thumbs up*
I only recently got that you're not a woman yourself (becouse you're not, do you?)

I feel more comfortable with my male charries than with females... strange :?

Guess it's because it's harder to compare yourself to your character like that.

My girls tend to be a lot like me, very happy people generally...though I have played some who aren't.

My guys are all over the board -- I think it is easier for me to play them as very different from me.

Got only one girl..
(Although I plan on playing a few more.)
She isn't really nice.

Most of my men are negative and pessimistic. Most of them do care about others though. With a few exceptions.
- Every person lost in war is two too many.
- Respect comes from two sides and must be earned. Nobody has the right to it because of a title, sex, age, race or birth.
- What doesn't kill you makes you stronger.
- I believe in True Love, do you?
