    I do not feel good. Still. I just do not. I feel bad because sometimes I do not feel excited about an Rp because part way through I want to puke. This has gone on for a long time now and its just... TIRESOME. I am glad to have patient Rpers though, to deal with my grumpy. I try to hide it, and yet I worry I fail because it has nothing to do with you lot. I love Legos, I am not going anywhere besides I have nothing to do otherwise with the time I never sleep in... and it is fun. Honest fun that breaks through my Daria levels of not caring about anything.

    I just find... some moments I want to bite everyone for existing.

    I feel guilty this may have slipped out. If so I am sorry. If not, good but I am still worried it might. Its not your fault I do not feel well or mine. I could blame the doctors for not being smart enough I supppoooose...

    Awww Mo, I think I know how you feel. I wish there was a way to END this senseless anxiety, but please chalk it up to the fact it is NOT uncommon. I say its not taking rp personal its when YOU suspect you are rping with someone who IS taking things personal or who WILL take it to a personal level.

    Its for wanting to IM someone and discuss the rp situation and know if you do it MAY cause a shitstorm. Sometimes it may even be a little explanation of what went on or constructive feedback on how well the situation either presented itself or was handled.

    Rp on a popular sim is constant and consistently on going. Some other sims like COLA chain and DCS sims may chose to do SIM wide events...but Legacies is different because it leaves the player options to develop their char through quests which usually leads to other player involvement. Also we can create out own quests and sim events with help of ST's and such. But RP must go on some way or other. storylines will continue..if we waited for players to be online for it, we would all stagnate.

    But on the biting bits: Some may like that.

    If i find myself getting worked up in an rp..i think its marvelous..that means that char is DOING A GOOD JOB EVOKING EMOTION..like when you watch a movie and roll your eyes at the dingy damsel in distress and so on. But again, there are those 'feelings' we all get when we think someone is taking things out of context and using their char like a 'puppet'. i call this compensating and it is NOT a good thing in the rp world. Players compensate their dislike of someone's char automatically making the bad assumption the player is like the character. sometimes its envy or jealousy. You see an avy and because you don't like furries or dragons, you automatically make rp difficult or ignore the char. But this is the curse of SL..its virtual..so it means its meant to be like the real world and in the real world some form mal opinions based on race, creed, sexuality, age, body image and financial status to name a few. its bound to carry over into SL. Why? Because the typists are REAL PEOPLE..so we face real life social issues when playing together.

    Anyway..I enjoy and appreciate Legacies even the rpers I have yet to get the pleasure of playing with. The above statement is meant to be my opinions based on my own experiences as a roleplayer. Im sorry if I droned on..its a good subject and one that i think a lot of people are scared to broach.

    Well Contrite you were not on the mark but I do appreciate your comments as they do add up to some things. I was talking about puking blood and the doctors being clueless and worrying I am letting my agitation show when it should not. I want to do the good job of emotional evokation not slip up because I feel like shit.

    Also... DAS BEAR GET OVER HERE AND HUG ME.
