Oh my. What can we worse than unborn cubs wanting attention? Well, I think I know.
I remember roleplaying as a sexist, mean warrior cat. An then there was this she-cat, she was literate and seemingly intelligent. Well, I remember we were roleplaying near our camp and I said something along the lines: "You're pretty alright for a she-cat." That's a nice compliment considering my character's a bit of a meanie, but I think she took it too literal. It went downhill from there because she wanted to "be with me no matter what"... She made a huge fuss about it and joined our rival clan so she could kill me in battle ._.'' Some nasty comments followed and um, well, I wasn't even sure if we were roleplaying or not any more. Thankfully enough we've had a little discussion after our big battle and became friends (OOC) after both clans disbanded, but damn she sure was an attention seeker.
I guess the moral of the story is that bad things happened to us and we sure do have our differences, but hey, if she wasn't such an attention seeker, I don't think she would've been half as great as she is.
As for other types of attention seeking, I try to just roll with them and roleplay as I normally would. Who knows, maybe I'm the only one having problem with it? If more than one person has any issue with those people, that's when we have a dilemma. If it's just me, I don't really do anything about it. Yolo.
