Alright people. Time to make your minds explode using things I have found out involving the game
And some other things revolving around real-life situations that I just really need to make other people realize.
OH WHERE TO BEGIN.
how about I make categories.
FERALHEART STEREOTYPES
Do I even need to explain?
Now for some reason, there are a whole ton of stereotypes revolving around people in this game... where to begin.
"People on FH have no lives outside of the game"
This is the most inaccurate thing ever. I am a complete social butterfly (Yes I'm of age to be doing everything I'm about to list) who goes to parties, enjoys herself with others (you may interpret that however you wish.), and LOVES being around people. And I'm not the only one! Ive met a TON of people who have quite frantic social lives. And yet we still find time to come on the game a ton c:
"If you have a social life like the one above, you cant roleplay or you're illiterate."
-points to self- I PROVE THIS TO BE COMPLETE STUPIDITY. You dont know how many times ive seen this happening where people just interpret the "popular" crowd or whatever you people call it to be illiterate. One of my very close friends is a FANTASTIC writer whos publishing a book... and shes more of a butterfly than I am.
"If youre really really literate and type long rp posts, you are a social outcast."
I dont even know how this got started but its completely ridiculous. Need I say more?
"Everyone on FH is either extremely unattractive, goth, little kids, or social outcasts."
I'd like to know who thought this one up. I hate spotlighting myself like this because it makes me seem like a real egocentric jerk but its proof so im using it xD I am incredibly attractive, that is not my ego talking, people say I should be a model, serious. I am not goth. I am almost considered a "prep" or "jock" or "skater-prep". Im not a little kid. Im turning 18 soon. I am FAR from a social outcast.
And again, Im not the only one. There are some incredibly gorgeous, sexy, attractive as heck, people on this game. (I videochat a lot with fhers. Because Im just that coo', yo.) Seriously. Dont even get me started on some of the guys ive met. Just.... Jesus... Eyecandy lemme tell you that right now.
"FH is segregation in a game."
Sometimes this is true. This is regarding the case of the Canines and Felines. But those are immature people who go around saying "ew. a canine/feline. my species is better." But other than that, no. just... no.
"Wolfaboos. EVERYWHERE."
Okay. Just because you have a wolf character does not make you a wolfaboo. Is there anything wrong with being a wolfaboo? No. But please keep your wolfspam to yourself. And you antiwolfaboos.... stop judging people.
"No one is original."
This is whack. I know theres some major mary sue /gary sue characters out there and some major cliches but you should seriously see the parts of those characters that arent... one character of mine would be considered a complete cliche.. her names Jarei. And she ran away from her pride when she was a teen out of fear that the lion she loved was dead, just to run into him again as an adult. (Her pride got attacked while she was gone)... and she is slightly mary sue. shes supposed to be absolutely gorgeous, fastest lioness in the pride (her and the male formed a pride), and extremely intelligent... and yet no one realizes that not only is she all that but shes not that strong... she doesnt sulk in her past... she CANT do everything... she asks for help...she is the definition of ADHD (the character is meant to have adhd)... shes bubbly as heck... and not too intimidating (unless shes running at you, but thats just typical)... she hates children unless theyre her own, infact in one case she hates her own children as well, BUT STILL. You see what i mean? Everyones characters are original. Unless you create a carbon copy of another... but thats different ouo
"There seem to be designated times of day for different rps to be advertised"
This is actually weirdly accurate in some cases.
Did you guys notice that warrior cat rps seem to be most common in the busiest times? (4-9PM EST in my case)
Lion rps seem to be the most common later in the day (for EST)
And Wolf rps seem to be most common earlier in the day (normally ranging 10am-7PM est)
Now these are just the most common rps to see around. But still. Isnt that weird?
"There are 5 main roleplay groups- wolves, lions, demons, Warrior cats, and street dogs."
This is complete stereotyping. Though these seem to be by far the most common roleplays to come across, there are much more.
"MODs are stuckup jerks."
NONONONO. LIES. D: Seriously. I know a small handful of the MODs and I gotta admit some of them are HILARIOUS and just overall awesome people. Take Redlinelies for example (Admin, if you dont know who he is, I suggest studying up on your Admins and MODs). Hes awesome. Though I barely talk to him, Ive seen his posts around and Ive heard what other people who are close with him think about him. And on the topic of Red...
"Redlinelies bans you for blinking."
Again, this is just... -sigh- People, he just wants the game to be safe and secure and he wants rules to be followed. Its not his fault that you cant follow rules. Trust me, ive been in situations where ive been helping friends out of things, dont bother changing his mind, if he banned you, I promise, its for a good reason. And even if it seems he bans alot, guess what, hes online a lot. and he hangs out in the areas where people are most commonly going against rules. So what does that make him? Incredibly smart. He does his job. And he does it well. Sure there may be a few cases where a ban really was a mistake (i.e you accidentally log into an area where the ip was banned without realizing the ip was banned)... but other than that... him, and the rest of the mods and admins, are just keeping the game safe.
"Making maps is hard. EXTREMELY HARD"
Lies. Its so easy a caveman can do it. -shot-
Theres no such thing as being bad at making maps. its like drawing... theres no bad art... there may be people who are considered masters of the map maker... but they got there by practicing and playing around. And I can bet when they first played with the map maker they were no picasso either. Practice makes perfect~
"SEMI-LITERATE..."
there is no such thing as semi literate. Like what is this I dont even...
"All trolls are idiots/jerks."
Lies. I go around trolling sometimes. And its minor too. A lot of times its just butting into an rp until I notice people are getting really annoyed then I go off somewhere. Now some trolls are complete pains and really are jerks, but a good bit of the time, its bored FHers who have nothing better to do at the moment because theyre waiting for their friends to come online or theyre waiting till they have to go do something IRL.
"NOOBS are illiterate"
Okay so that means you were illiterate when you got on the game.
Just dumb. Seriously. They dont know their way around yet, give em a break. FeralHeart is not the source of literacy in this world. Some people come into these games like a professional writer. And just because someone is illiterate does not make them a noob.
"Cant win an argument? Correct their grammar."
Just dont do this.
It makes the other person freak out and alot of the time when you go to correct the persons grammar you dont realize thats just a slip of the finger. Like if someone said "rok" instead of "rock". could just be because they didnt hit the C hard enough.
And not to mention this whole stereotype of what to do in an argument just causes people to blow up on eachother and we do not need that.
"Everyone on this game is a liar."
No. We dont all lie about our lives. A lot of people do, ill admit that. But a lot of us are genuine about who we are. Like myself. -ego-
"Everyone in the game is white."
Nope. One of my besties on this game is black. And I know multiple other black people in this game, as well as multiple asians, dominicans, mexicans, puerto ricans, and much more. Feralheart is a rainbow.
"Feralhearts new maps are a piece of poop."
Yes, ill admit, theyre not the prettiest things in the world. But with everyone constantly pressuring KovuLKD to make new maps, he ended up throwing a few together to shut everyone up (or so ive heard) the same goes for the wings, ya know.
