You know what grinds my gears? People coming up with overly-descriptive, and often inaccurate, synonyms for animal anatomy. Overcompensating is the word.

Example: The morose, malevolent canine tossed his mahogany orbs (NO) in the direction of the light-fettered fae. His rubbery snout curled deviously as he lumbered towards her on his treetrunks.


Description is great in moderation. Please don't be this person.

Personally the stereotype that tends to ruffle my feathers is the godmodding and powerplaying. Just because I run so many role plays at a given time. But I think my biggest peeve is the use of medical terms and words that don't even mean a body part. What FH has dubbed "Wolf speakers" I just rarely ever role play with them because of the fact some of them you just can't understand, or they're using the improper terms.

Otherwise I'm okay with other "stereotypes" on this game.

I must agree with Owlus. The only people that really bother me are the stereotypical wolfspeakers. Especially those that put themselves above others because of their "advanced vocabulary."

To be completely honest, all of them get on my nerves now and then.
I don't necessarily dislike one in particular, they all have their ups and downs.  One does not join this game, instantly knowing everything about it and how to roleplay perfectly.  Everyone has to start somewhere and gradually learn.  Noobs are normal, common people to come across in-game.  I'd gladly help one in or out of the game.  The same goes for 'orphans'.  Chances are, they are not the most experienced people in the game, I think they just need time to find out where they fit in amongst the different roleplay groups and people in the game.  Okay, trolls I will admit probably annoy me a little more than the rest.  They are just people who are bored/looking for attention and that's ok I suppose.  What I've learned by playing this game, is to know when to ignore or report someone.  Heck, even 'pros' act that way too sometimes.  I dislike it when people seem to think that everyone else is beneath them, while they dramatically stare down on everyone.
Now that I think about it, I think normal are annoying.  Who are they to be so regular?  They scare me.

One stereotype I don't really like is.... "If you roleplay as a mythical creature with magic powers, you're a powerplayer and a godmodder!" I sometimes see people say that they would not want to roleplay with a dragon, demon, or any other fantasy character because they think the fantasy character has infinite power, no flaws, and will insta-kill someone. That's not always true. I've seen experienced roleplayers have some very interesting fantasy characters that don't powerplay or godmod.

I really hate the thought that if you play as a TLK or Warriors character then you are automatically a terrible roleplayer. Same thing goes with characters with unrealistic colors for their species or even wings. Apparently everyone is a terrible roleplayer unless you are a dark colored wolf with a Latin or an edgy name and a pack-tag. I remember back in the day when wings were introduced, I was called a powerplayer because I used my own wings on my character to avoid people. I don't think a cat would call a bird a powerplayer when the bird flies away, now would they? :p

FeralHeart sure is an interesting place.

Probably wolfspeaking. I cannot fathom why people would go through the trouble of essentially relearning English in the name of looking like a more "Advanced" roleplayer. Although, I guess it's a close tie with powerplaying...
Back again, let's see how long I stick around this time.
