Are you shitting on my knitting? WOMAN. THESE ARE FIGHTING WORDS. throws down spare pair of knitting needles
But yeah, I try to be kind to those who play social PCs but may not be able to back it up. I don't play socially focused PCs because I'm an awkward git with a communication/linguistic disorder. It's best I just stick to awkward types.
Werewolves punching vampires punching wizards slapping fairies forever.
... Actually, I think I just liked a lot of the theme and story.
@dontpanda The thing is, in many places in the US, LGBTQ people do have to worry about violence and being killed. We had a Q&A with a gay guy who came in to our Human Sexuality class who told us of at least one time he went to a bar, left and got followed by a bunch of guys wanting to play 'Stomp the Faggot'. The cops just kinda shrugged at him.
This is without even getting into trans* folks who don't disclose or do disclose and get promptly beaten or murdered.
@Thenomain HR? Tetchy? HE MUST BE THE POD PERSON THAT ESCAPED FROM THE BLACK HOLE I THREW HIM INTO.
Just be careful not to hit critical levels of smug.
@Kay Hiya! I play Lumina, Mara, Rain, Inazuma et al. at CC. On the Reach, I was Maura. On HM, I was Zafirah, Rain, Saphir and Gale.
It's good to see you again and I hope things are well.
Man, aren't you a bastion of positive thought?
Why not tell staff if someone is harassing you or something? Sure, most of us can't make people fix their behavior, but a lot of the time it's derp not malice. Social ineptitude (captain semantic-pragmatic language disorder reporting in!) is not rare in this hobby, and most people stop when bluntly told so.
But what if I had one more question and wanted to let you know so that you know escape is nigh? 
I'm thechibi with a goldfish picture. The only problem is, some guy really into anime has a similar name. Gah.
@il-volpe I liked the idea. It makes sense that navy seal commandos or whatever at the age of 20 are probably incredibly rare to nonexistent.
People, especially when there's more than one of them, are often inherently noisy. I think expecting say, a toddler, to be one hundred percent quiet is pretty unreasonable. I've grown more tolerant and understanding over the years (gawd, I was so rabidly CF in the day) even though I still wonder why someone would bring an infant to a movie. That loud bass and noise cannot be good for wee ears.
@WTFE Yeah, but like I said, people mix up blunt and assholish very easily.
Honestly, I think a lot of it comes from societal attitudes. Some folks don't wear a whole lot here when it gets hot because holy shit, it gets hot here.
Staring like a creeper is rude, regardless of what a person carries/packs/wears. Some people wear things for comfort, not to put goods on display.
Costume is not consent, although Con Creepers are their own special breed of awful (I guess clothes if you want the non-con version).
Wow, he's so sexy he gave her a case of wall-eye.
It's probably not going to go over well if she ever finds out. I know I'd feel a bit weirded out someone totally needed to hide their hobbies.
I'd prefer to meet someone who was at the least okay with my interests, if not willing to share or be into them, too.
@Kanye-Qwest I don't know. The downvote pixies seem to be in full force all over the forums.
@mietze I get annoyed by those concepts because they are so numerous (and turn into ABSURDLY POWERFUL 18 year olds with - well, you get the idea), and because a lot of the time they rely on the special of the concept to carry the character.
Oh, bloobloobloo, I'm sorry your source of character conflict is that someone else is just as pretty type conflicts drive me nuts.
Also I am crabby today.
