Game Discussion / Re: Criticizing Others Roleplay Style: How Far is Too Far?
« on: January 18, 2013, 12:40:40 am »I don't mean to toot my own horn, but this rp guide I made has been floating around the FH community for a while now. I slightly touch on the topic of literacy, but I don't think it's exactly fair to call-out people who want literate rps.
As far as literacy is concerned, I have participated in almost every literacy level of rp known on FH; however I am probably going to be bias towards "literate groups" because it's an issue of communication. On the surface it looks like people aren't going to want to rp with somebody they can barely understand... But for me, it's avoiding someone who godmods. Yes, godmods. You know, that kind of player where their character is FREAKING PAWFECT and has thuper thpeshul awethum powahzz?1!! I find a lot of people want to go to literate rps because that's a huge drop-off rate in mate-beggars and godmods.
Using what's said in the title, there's a difference between criticizing Style and Literacy. Literacy is above. Style is things like Scripting or Paragraphs or Liners. Scripting can be just as literate as Paragraphs, and sometimes One-liners contain a hell of a lot more than a flowery multi-post.
Have a cookie, Kerri.
These days, I rarely visit the public maps to roleplay.
Mainly because I just roleplay with friends.
And in all honesty, no, I don't really prefer to roleplay with newer members. In the rare case that I do, I usually ignore grammar mistakes, (I make them all the time, dang it.) but rather give them tips to improve.
However, the vibe I'm getting from a lot of posts is that it seems that "literate" roleplayers are all the bad guys here.
Well first off, calling literates bad guys is just the same as calling illiterates savages. It's just as wrong. We're equal here. Some people just don't realize it, whatever they might be.
Anyways, Most of us, if not all of us, are guilty of making mistakes, both major and minor, as we roleplay.
Of course, it's good to point out mistakes from time to time, not harshly but in a kind, appropriate manner.
Otherwise, those who want to improve won't improve.
But if someone is happy with how they roleplay, then the other roleplayer should respect that, whether it's a single line or a whole paragraph.

But here are some previous ones, with a little explanation below them that I always use.

Dodging knights LIKE A BOSS.

Zoroark used Night Daze.
^
It's Lancing Time.
^
A true gentleman utilizes ninja skills.
^
Groose be Trollin'
And I've just noticed, each one is a little smaller than the previous one. O.O

Discussion Board / Re: do you think pewdiepie is funny?
« on: January 17, 2013, 12:00:23 am »Being a youtuber who is subscribed to many Let's Players like Chuggaconroy, Mindez, ScottishDuck, and Pewdiepie himself, I think this would be a nice conversation to jump into.
For one thing, I do love watching Let's Plays, usually of games I've already played or games I'm interested in.
I guess you can say I don't mind spoiling myself.
Either because the game hasn't been localized yet and might not be in a while,
or because I doubt that I will ever get it if it's exclusive to a game console I don't have.
It's also because I love to see how people react to the moments that were my most favorite or memorable in the game, if I played it myself.
I admit it, I've only just recently subscribed to Pewdiepie, when my friend told me that he was doing a Let's Play of Shadow of the Colossus.
I've been watching him since, and I focus on only three of his Let's Plays;
Shadow of the Colossus, Journey, and Scribblenauts Unlimited.
And I admit it, they always make me laugh.
I've come to ignore those more mature jokes, especially since they've apparently "died down" (I've never seen his Let's Plays of Amnesia or Slender, because I don't like playing games that are specifically made to give people horrible nightmares. :/)
He does tend to go a little far when playing Scribblenauts Unlimited,
but I'd say that he's improved,
since he doesn't make a lot of those jokes while playing Journey, and most of those few are minor.
But Pewdiepie is funny to me. Especially those Agro impressions in SOTC.
"But peeewds! Wait for me, I'm not a tree, I PROMISE!!"
