Also, on the topic of braids, how the game Braid got its name :l Did I miss something in it?

Lecturers who lose patience or hate people who ask for help.
I'm sorry, but if you don't have the patience to help people, you're in the wrong profession.

It takes more than knowledge to be a good teacher.

Why 95% of furfags are politically correct assholes. Only like 5% of the fucking people I can get along with.

I don't even know what 'political correctness' is anymore.

Douchebags who always have to 1UP everyone in politics. Well that's my interpretation. Pretty much 95% of furries who are left-wing. That's how it seems to me.

They called me this morning to tell me there was a problem with my address and then said there was no problem when I called them back. :I

I'm guessing your definition of 'politically correct' is actually 'people who I don't agree with,'.

More like, 'people who correct me'.

I have no clue what you are talking about. Could you explain again with a little less... slang?

That's because some bitches got no self-control. :V

But, whatever.

Whether or not you have self-control is irrelevant. By allowing RP on the forums, it opens up the gates and gives a green light to a lot of people who most likely don't have any self-control to speak of.

Yeah you have a point. And I could go on about setting rules and the threat of suspension or being banned if said rules are broken.

But RP here has obviously failed in the past, so I wont push the issue and leave it for other forums that allow it.

In all honesty I wouldn't mind an RP section of the forums for general stuff like adventure or whatever and I'd most likely not feel like participating. But it's the flood it can unleash which is a potential problem. The best case scenario is that it'd bring in a bunch of decent folk who happen to see RP as a selling point, but the worst will be yiffymurrpurrspooge all over the place.

And with places such as the General Time Wasting Thread being created, it's been shown that FAF's hiding older members or altogether new people are completely incapable of following simple rules and guidelines despite the threat of this fancy new privelige being completely taken away from everyone.

I agree. Honestly, the best place to roleplay with friends of the forum is in the privacy of pm's where no one else can see it.

I... just don't understand the appeal of RP generally. >.> I've tried it, and always just found myself thinking I should probably write a story instead and lose interest. Probably I'm a creative control freak.

Also: health insurance. A lady came to my house to help me pick a plan, and the thought occurred that this woman pays for her house and food by helping people sort out wtf kind of insurance they need, it is that complex.

At least I won't have to live in terror of the emergency room anymore.

I see how it's fun in its own way, but typing to denote my action makes me cringe inside.

I'm not a very good first-person roleplayer at all. I'm not the only person with this problem, apparently.

Oh blerg, I tried first-person maybe twice. Didn't care for that at all.

I've done the kind that's basically round-robin writing, a few paragraphs at a time from different characters' perspectives. I can see the collaborative aspect being a draw for some, but I found the pressure to be prompt and clever because someone else was waiting on me outweighed any of the initial fun of it. It always ends up feeling like an obligation that I don't care for.
