Alright, so it happened recently on 7/11/13 and here is what happened:
I was on a Dartmoor character (black lion mixed with boar) And I found a pride, and they were realistic and i'm like "I'm el curiouso to see if they will take me in..." Now he is 5% boar, just the snout makes him that. And I spoke to the leader, and he took a long time and i'm like "why eue" then he came with a response with this "Sorry, lions only! :3" I'm like "You seriously need that face... IS 5% GOING TO STOP YOU?! -.-"
People are just too stupid now a days.
I must assign the Jersey Devil to kill them all... *facefallonfloor*

It's no fun to get rejected from a roleplay all because your character isn't the traditional or realistic kind of animal. It's happened to me before, too. There are times I wish people would be more accepting of something different, or something unrealistic. Sometimes whenever I try to include an unrealistic character in a roleplay, even if it's only for a few minutes, they will sometimes get rejected. For example, a few clan cats from a clan I didn't know of encountered my unicorn fox and her feline friend. When these clan cats first saw her, they assumed she was just an ordinary albino fox. When I hinted that I was a unicorn fox, they pretty much wanted nothing to do with me or my friend. They wanted to stick with the books and stick with being "realistic".
Some people just prefer doing realistic roleplays. There's nothing wrong with that, really. It doesn't really make them stupid for only liking realistic roleplays. I myself like the more realistic stuff, but occasionally I will participate in unrealistic and fantasy roleplays.
Just because they rejected you, it doesn't make them stupid. They have a right to say no since it was their roleplay. So they weren't the right roleplay for you. It would be best to find some people who wouldn't mind having a lion/boar hybrid in their roleplay. There are plenty of other prides out there to join besides that one, so there is bound to be one that will welcome you with open arms.

I have had to deal with this before. Ugh.
And I get that its their RP Lady Alizarin but at the same time I wish more of them would stop over-examining the tiny details and learn to politely ignore them sometimes. Telling someone to "go run and find a different RP that's right for you" might be ideal logic in an ideal game but its not an ideal game. While your advice is kind and well meant, the proportions of RPs are pretty uneven right now.
If you sit in Fluorite for five minutes you'll find the majority of the RPs are semi-realistic, and if not, realistic. That said, looking for an unrealistic RP? Good luck with finding one, particularly if you're looking for one that has some grammatical requirements or is not filled with godmodders.
(Sky's Rim is a bit of a different story thankfully but is a lot more limited in terms of who you can find, particularly since for some people it is difficult to reach.)
All I know is that I'm thankful for the friends I have that try to find means for me to join them. I have some characters who are familiar with different species in a positive light, sometimes to the point that they really do not do well in a RP of their own kind. Now, whether or not that is realistic or unrealistic...eh we've all seen the mother dog who nurses the kittens and all that jazz so lets not get into that debate but the point I'm trying to make is, I have friends who have purposefully tried to get permission (with a rhyme or reason to have my character interact with a group of a different species that my friend is in with already) for me to jump in the RP without having to change my character.
Sometimes, it works out great. Really great.Other times, because Im being slightly more "unrealistic" and "odd" than the majority of those in the RP already that my friend ends up being the only person roleplaying with me and sometimes even OOCly talking to me inside of a massive group.
The rest will pretend like I do not exist, in character or out. I can fully understand if it was someone's character openly ignoring my character, since it "doesn't fit" with the rest and that is fine by me. I have no issues with that at all but to flat out act like I'm not even there, even when talking in OOC and everyone in the RP knows what is OOC and what isnt.... is kind of irritating.
I'm not agreeing with this thread in that realistic-roleplaying players are stupid (They are not) and I'm not saying this happens all of the time but I must say, it would be nice if some of the unrealistic role players were treated a little more fairly by their more realism-inclined counterparts.
-
I personally think when role playing in public maps you have to be a little open minded because of all the people that might end up role playing with you. Say if your group is on a hunt, then some random person tries to hunt the same prey as you. For these reasons, I always accept anything I come across.

@Lady
@Silhoulette
I wasn't saying realistic rpers were stupid, its just they need to know that if 5% is going to stop them, then that makes them dumb-minded.
-
I would just like to point out, calling them dumb-minded is the same as calling them stupid.
Some people just have their own preferences, I mean, when are you going to find a half boar half lion in the real world? If someone doesn't want an unrealistic creature in their rp, so be it, even if it is only 5%, it doesnt mean that they have to let you in, does it?
Its their choice, since its their rp.
-
I rarely see groups that are 100% realistic. Such as a wolf pack that only has one rank, Alpha, and the rest are just normal. Or a herd of deer with only one or two males. It's a game! Why not be unrealistic? We're talking wolves and lions who all live together, how much more unrealistic can you get?
That said, I see your point where some RP groups are quite picky, but many others are not. I have a group that's both, really. We RP as Warrior Cats, but have and eagle as an apprentice and a wolf pup in our nursery. Other animals, sometimes entire groups, are often blocked by my group (I don't block them for trying to Rp with us e.e) just because they are disrupting the peace of our RP.
-
Ugh. If I'm not mistaken, you're the very same person I instantly threw on block for calling the entirety of Bonfire "dumb, immature kids" a few weeks back. :P
Even so, genetics don't quite work in a percentage manner; there's a terrible amount of criss-crossing of alleles, jumbled chromosomes and general muddly-duddly when two gametes bump into each other. If you're trying to get into a realistic roleplay as an unusual cross-breed-- you'd likely best aim for unrealistic ones; most hybrids are impossible. It very, very, very rarely happens in the animal kingdom due to all the hybridization barriers and limitations. It's common in plants though! They're being true to realism for declining you; they're not stupid. I'd never accept a bizarre crossbreed into my own realistic roleplays, but anything goes in unrealistic ones. I've some odd critters myself!
No one's stupid, daft or dumb for having their own roleplaying preferences! 5% boar will never, ever be realistic-- they had all right to decline you, if I'm honest. You'd best aim for unrealistic (or even semi-realistic!) with such a character! It's a neat concept, but it does limit the roleplays you can apply for.
-
Exactly what I'm trying to say Nemana, they have every right to have rejected you, they have their own preferences, that doesnt make them stupid.
-
Ugh. If I'm not mistaken, you're the very same person I instantly threw on block for calling the entirety of Bonfire "dumb, immature kids" a few weeks back. :P
I think Jersey was going crazy XD. Sorry.
-
If I am not mistaken... 5% boar is not possible in the real world, and is therefore deemed unrealistic. If you were trying to get into a realistic lion roleplay, as a boar/lion hybrid, which is impossible in the real world, they had every right to decline you. A boar would never breed with a lion, and if it did, the offspring would end up extremely mutated and would die within days of birth. It is just not possible. In a unrealistic roleplay, be whatever you want, but if it is a realistic roleplay, being 5% boar would automatically deem you unrealistic and illegible for a realistic roleplay. Realistic means something that is possible in the real world, which being 5% boar is not. Of course a realistic pride of lions is not going to accept you, as that would make it unrealistic. Just because they rejected you does not make them dumb, they could actually be quite intelligent. Making threads such as this is likely to get you flamed, Coda. I would suggest not ranting about these subjects in the future. ~Vio
-
Actually I believe if a boar ever did for some reason mate with a lion the lion wouldn't even fall pregnant and vice versa.
I think they have every right to not let you join, since it is up to them who they do and do not let in their role play. As long as they let you down nicely and so on there is no need to get mad. I've been rejected from role plays for silly reasons and they haven't even been nice enough to tell me why.
-

I think Jersey was going crazy XD. Sorry.
I know, Nemena. I was there too. That's not a very nice thing to do at all. There are those who take great offense to being called "dumb, immature kids". I can be very insulting, especially if you tell it to an adult player. You could be calling someone a "dumb immature kid" and they might be 24 years old or something. I don't mean to bring this up, but aren't you just a kid yourself?
Now if you were saying those kind of things in-character, that's a slight difference. It's understandable if it's part of your character's personality. Nevertheless, saying things like that to people isn't really kind. People will just think you're very rude ,insensitive, and a bully (even if it's part or your character). There are some that don't really know the difference between in-character and out-of-character.
Getting back on subject now...

@Silhoulette
I wasn't saying realistic rpers were stupid, its just they need to know that if 5% is going to stop them, then that makes them dumb-minded.
I was only really refering to the pride you were speaking of, not all those who only do realistic roleplays. For this particular realistic lion pride, 5% just wasn't going to cut it for their roleplay. It doesn't make them "dumb-minded" at all. If I were recruiting for a strictly realistic roleplay, I probably wouldn't have recruited an unusual hybrid into my roleplay. Like I said, it was their roleplay; therefore they got to call the shots on who joins and who doesn't.
I have had to deal with this before. Ugh.
And I get that its their RP Lady Alizarin but at the same time I wish more of them would stop over-examining the tiny details and learn to politely ignore them sometimes. Telling someone to "go run and find a different RP that's right for you" might be ideal logic in an ideal game but its not an ideal game. While your advice is kind and well meant, the proportions of RPs are pretty uneven right now.
I was being serious and honest with that. What else can you do when someone doesn't want to roleplay with you? You can't just heckle them about it, and tell them that they aren't being fair by not letting you join. Often times they DON'T want to hear it.
Yes, I know that the proportions of roleplays are uneven in the game of Feral Heart, but there is really nothing that can be done about it. Sometimes trying to persuade a realistic roleplay leader into accepting an unrealistic character is like trying to get someone who hates Warrior cats to like them. Often times you will get nowhere with it. You can try and persuade someone into accepting an unrealistic character in a realistic roleplay. If they don't mind the unrealistic character joining, that's great! But if it doesn't work, what's the point of standing around arguing with them when you can go out and find another roleplay to join? Sure, it was unfair that they didn't let you join because your character wasn't realistic enough, but it was their roleplay, therefore they get to decide who joins and who doesn't.
Realistic means something that is possible in the real world, which being 5% boar is not. Of course a realistic pride of lions is not going to accept you, as that would make it unrealistic.

I have to agree with you there, Purple Link. Rants like this are expressive, but they can come with the consiquences of getting flamed. It sucks to be rejected from a roleplay, but it doesn't mean you have to hold grudges on people and rant about it. I made that mistake a long time ago.

You're right. It is their RP and they can do what they want with it but my question is why can't they learn to ignore the subtle stuff once in a while? /Why/ are they getting upset about it? /Why/ do they "not like it" when in most cases it does virtually NOTHING negative to their roleplay? Yes, I know there there is no point at trying to make them budge or argue with them I'm just curious what the reasons are for being so stubborn about it.
Sure, I can understand someone not wanting a big neon-yellow wolf with pink spots buttswinging and headbanging its way around all of the other realistic wolves. THAT would have an impact on the roleplay but I'm talking about the little subtle stuff, things that do not have to effect the realism, looks, behavior, etc of anyone else in a realistic roleplay. And if it will not impact you or your roleplay, why show anyone the exit?
These are things that they /could/ react to [and if they chose to do so, could do so realistically quite easily in most cases I might add] but do not /have/ to. Ex: An oddly shaped snout, an odd eye color, a few spots where they don't normally belong, a slightly more "blue" in a blue-gray animal, etc. Itty bitty stuff.
If its an odd eye-color (or other insignificant trait) that is the only thing singling the character out from being perfectly realistic, why is it so hard for the person making the roleplay and others in it to say to themselves "I'll just act like its a mutation (which DOES happen in real life, even if it is not frequent) and react according to how an animal would realistically handle this" and go on? Sure, one could argue that turns the roleplay into semi-realism but so long as its not fifty people doing it at the same time, in the long run it does not impact the level of realism in the RP as a whole. Anyone observing would probably still consider it realistic. (especially in the case of considering it a mutation)
For example, with real life gazelle, there is a less common coat color of white. The "normal" Thompson's gazelle usually identify this white gazelle as an oddball and behave aggressively toward it, chase it around, etc. even when it belongs to their own herd. It is realistic behavior from real animals, right?
Now if this situation were a roleplay, gazelles in a herd, it really would not be that hard to "replace" that "realistic white gazelle" with say, an unrealistic rusty-red brown gazelle and have the other members of the herd behave in the exact same way because it fails to match their own golden-brown coloration. Or they could ignore it because the change is so slightly off that it really is not that noticeable to begin with. Point being, everyone who was behaving and looking realistically before will NOT be affected by the look of this "oddball."
It has no direct impact on the behavior of the other player's characters and does not take from the realism or force anyone to change, so, for what reasons does anybody get hung up on these tiny details that are so easy to disregard?
I'm genuinely curious.Is it just a need for "perfectionism" and needing 100% realism? Or maybe its just easier to tell someone "no" than work together and come up with a logical way to work things out? Fair enough, I can't explain Codaac's 5% boar/lion but when just looking at the exterior traits and ignoring the genetic insides, it really isn't that difficult. Can you not consider a role-play realistic anymore JUST because of a small number of people? I'm genuinely curious and I would love to hear from those who make realistic role plays on a frequent basis.
Personally, so long as the mass majority are being realistic, I would consider the roleplay realistic. (Like, out of a group of 100, if 10 are'nt being 100% perfectly realistic in their looks...its still a realistic roleplay thanks to the majority. If it drops to about 50/50 or lower then its semi realism or unrealistic at that point) I look at the majority of the characters and their behavior who are in the roleplay in order to call judgment on whether it is is mostly realistic, semi realistic, or not at all.
-
You should think about the group too, they've finally made a group with enough members for a good role play with how hard recruiting is at the moment. Do you really think they're going to want to start putting in members they think aren't right for them? What's hard about making a character that would be right for their group if you want a group so badly?
-
You're right. It is their RP and they can do what they want with it but my question is why can't they learn to ignore the subtle stuff once in a while? /Why/ are they getting upset about it? /Why/ do they "not like it" when in most cases it does virtually NOTHING negative to their roleplay?

You know what? I honestly don't know. I guess some people are just that picky when it comes to recruiting for realistic roleplays. Why they can't ignore a few little differences, I will never know. I don't speak for those individuals, so I cannot say.
Now that you mention all this, it does remind me of a time when I was recruiting members for my fox roleplay and I met a couple of players who didn't want to join because they thought my character wasn't realistic enough.
(http://i45BannedImageSite/2ily0t0.png)
My little character, Kopper, is what I like to call a semi-realistic fox character. She acts like a normal fox, barking, gekering, chirping, waving tail around, being a trickster, and so on. She has the realistic colors and markings of a red fox, but has a few unrealistic features. The only thing unrealistic about her is her eyes and the tuft of hair on her head. This one time I was recruiting some members to come join me in a fox roleplay. These two very realistic fox character came up to me and asked me about the roleplay. I told them that the roleplay was realistic (no powers or supernatural things of any sort) but then they said to me, "Well why does your character look unrealistic? We like to play as foxes with no hair and realistic eye colors. Sorry, but we will have to find something else, because we want to play realistically." And so they left to go roleplay by themselves. I couldn't help but feel irritated, since they didn't give my roleplay a chance all because my character wasn't "realistic enough".
And then there was that time when I recruited for my grey fox roleplay. There were some who came around and asked about the roleplay. I told them that this was an RP with tree-climbing grey foxes and that red foxes were also allowed. Well some of the people didn't know about grey foxes, and thought they were a made-up species. They told me they would rather go for a real fox roleplay, and left. They really didn't know is that grey foxes do exist and they in fact DO climb trees. Really what they were looking for is a realistic RED fox roleplay.
So yeah, I know what you are saying here, Silhouette. I wish people would look past the little differences in a character's apperance. But there are some people out there in the game who are difficult to persuade or to please. Why it's like that, I will never know. It's like trying to please someone with a "literate" roleplay sample. Some recruiters are more picky than others.
-
Realistic? One of my main characters is a leonine alien! XD
Although, I guess there is SOME realism in those rps, because most things which he does and can do have a good explanation.
-
Dear, I've never had the chance to stumble upon an RP that happens to be extremely realistic, and doesn't accept my character, but after reading through a couple of these stories, I hope it never happens to any of my characters. (It could possibly be because most of my character's are realistic, but getting back to the point)
I see the point there however. I've been involved (and typically are involved) with groups that set their realism standards high. Depending on what the character is, I sometimes agree with them for not accepting an unrealistic member. However, there have been times where a decent player has tried to join, yet are declined because of a certain flaw in their character design, a different species from everyone else. ect. It annoys me that super realistic RP's cannot be a little accepting of these kind of characters. I, personally don't care if your character is a little different from anyone else. I'll even take the chance to RP with you because your character is so different, because most of the time, I don't come across unique characters.
Most of the time, I'll make a "different" character and end up just going solo with it. I won't bother to find a group because I'll get that feeling I won't be accepted amongst their ranks.
-
I do feel that they do go overboard with this sometimes since Fh allows you change you char quite a bit and right your own bio giving your char that oc touch witch you really should expect something like this with all the features you can do I mean like yea you could just make a new char and take the easy way out but I wish realistic rps would mix with others sometimes cause being bland and the same sometimes gets boring and this is why I like to rp on my neon dog Dubstep ;)
-
They aren't stupid for having preferences. The pride was realistic as you said. And like others have said it's not possible for a boar to mate with a lion, so that deems your character to be unrealistic. They had a valid reason to deny you from the roleplay.
-
Even though I've never really encountered anything as such, I've heard about it happening to many players. Now, I can understand if one would reject another if one of them has regulations they must follow; like how a mapped Rp is nowadays. However, I find no excuse in thrashing out to another member just because they might be a bit different. That's just discrimination. It's best to handle it all OOC, explaining why they can't join and if they wish to do so, then let them make a few tweaks to their character to meet the regulations and then bam, you can accept them. No harm done, no insults (hopefully), etc. We can all be civil here.
Like Warrior has stated way, way, before me; nearly everyone these days are more semi-realistic to unrealistic due to the fact of ranks, amount of members in their roleplay, etc. So, all in all, those to fiercely discriminate any form of unique individual, especially if they're in a public map where neon wolves run about and flying muffins litter the sky, they're only being a tad bit hypocritical and close-minded.
Tis' just my perspective on things, however. Though, like Fatal has said before me, more than likely they are following some regulations or rules so all in all, they did have a good reason to reject you. It's best not to take it personally and move on instead of risking causing an argument.
-
I hate it when that happens, also I was a witness of this moment. That was seriously idiotic for the pride leader. I once was turned down from a realstic warrior cat roleplay, because they simply said I was "too blue" Even though I was more of silver.
-
Why would you even attempt to join and RP you know is realistic with an unrealistic character in the first place?
Even if to you your Dartmoor mystery cat, yes I know the story of the sighting...is a 'realistic' character in your eyes, an RP that is realistic and based on natural 'boring' if you think so for sticking to what is scientifically proven, creatures, clearly is not going to accept something 'unnatural' with a pig snout, even if it is 'only five percent.'
-
It's the opposite going on for me. I tell 'em I'm a feliyena, or cat-hyena hybrid, and they still want me in their pack. They even called me HELOG. Even my ebony blue warrior cat was accepted. Nobody seems to have cared that Heulog wasn't even 1% wolf though. Hopefully, I won't have that problem anymore, she died.
-

D--> Just because the pride leader rejected him for not being realistic enough, it does not make him idiotic. It was his roleplay after all, he had the right to say no.
You can't please them all.
-
Okay. They had the right to reject you, for this other reason: WHY would a lion pride want a character with a PIG SNOUT in their pride? Have you EVER seen a lion with a pig snout in real life? No.
-
I understand that, I can't get into any prides just because I'm not full lion, and part Tiger (Liger) it's quite annoying. I understand they want to play realistically, but sometimes they can be really rude when saying that you can't join just because you aren't to their "standards" You have to be a purebred lion, and that's that. And then there's the people who basically turn jerkish towards Liger Prides or Tiger Streaks. (A streak is a couple of Tigers that join together for a short while but in the case of the game, a long while.) Just because it's not realistic! If it's really that bothering to you, just ignore us, you don't have to say mean things and bully just because it's not the way -YOU-(By you I mean whoever's being a jerk to the unrealistic people.) want it.
-
I think it might have been dumb of them but it's up to them who they want to rp with :/ would it maybe have been cool to have a hybrid? yeah it might have but that's not what they wanted that time.
it's always better to just move on.
-
So.... I guess this whole thing is about how 'Idiotic' people think 'Full on' Role Plays are.
Well! Yes I have had been rejected many times by prides but I have learn't from that, Some people want the full on realistic. So I just let them be and I carry on with the game. I do find it a bit stupid that you MUST have full on realistic and some times even FULL ON Literacy, I mean... Come on, Nobody is perfect, We are who we are and we all have our different styles and likes in a lion, Wolf or be a Dragon, Horse, Fish ect.
So where I am getting at is that people cant be the way you want them, They can do it but they wont like it. But then what is the point of RPing if everything is Perfect and nobody enjoy's it but the creators. So, Getting it through yet again, No body is perfect everyone is unique and you are you and not what someone wants you to be.

Can never be too realistic in my opinion. But I'm just a realism junkie.
I'll agree, being rejected from a RP isn't pleasant. But we've got to understand that the people who made the roleplay have to right to decide who's in and who's out. It's nothing personal, it's just they'd prefer it if you're particular character wasn't in it, for whatever reason. And as the saying goes, 'beggars can't be choosers'.
-
Now, I'm speaking as someone who actually likes realistic RPs (which, so far as I know, has had no impact on my intelligence), but to me it seems rather narcissistic to expect an already established realistic lion RP to bend its own rules and let in an impossible hybrid that won't fit in with their theme just because you want to join it. If an elemental snow leopard wanted to join my post-apocalyptic dog RP, it wouldn't matter how good they were, or how few elemental leopard RPs were advertising at the moment, or that I actually like snow leopards a lot, I still couldn't let them in because it would throw off the entire theme of the group and everyone who actually joined because they wanted to RP city dogs would have to work around a giant elephant in the room. I know being rejected isn't pleasant (and seeing as I'm fond of robot characters, it happens to me a lot), but its doesn't fall on the people who run their own themed RPs to make exceptions and go out of their way for you.

I'm a player who prefers realistic over anything, I even join semi-realistic ones sometimes if there isn't much realistic groups around. Although, as it's stated above your character is 5% boar, even with that 5% they have every right to decline your request to join their group. If they advertised their group as realistic you should of realised, that 5% of your character would not get you into that group. At least the person had the decency to apologise for declining your request but yet you call them names. Perhaps you should of taken a nicer approach to this.
I know what it's like not to be accepted into role plays you want too, my fursona Dorian is a Barbary Lion but he's grey. Although I may role play him as realistic and like any ordinary lion, he is what's called unrealistic because when you do ever get a grey lion? You don't. You have to understand some people have different opinions on what realistic is. You don't need to be rude about it or call them stupid for declining you, everyone has the right to say no. All you had to do was say it was ok and be on your way, looking for a new role play. You didn't need to proceed in calling them names but good luck with any other role plays.

The thing you posted above, about your character being 5% boar, even if it's just 5%, they have the right to decline you. Anyway, I don't think you can be too realistic, unless you go around, sniffing and peeing everywhere if you were a wolf. I roleplay realistic only, and I have never been declined for anything. I say, you need to think about it. If you're character is a mix between a boar and a lion, I highly doubt he/she would be accepted into a lion RP.
Sorry if I seemed rude.
