1.Insane god modding
I hate how alot of people make fan characters so impossibly powerful, like they have god-like powers!
"I'm (Random Name) The Hedgehog! I have a colossal attack power of infinity! I can destroy reality and all of manking with only a gesture! I can fly! I can run around the world in a split second! And I have hyper chaos powers that transform me into the god, (Another Random Name). I am also immune to everything! Everyone bow down to the awesome power of (Random Name) The Hedgehog!"
It's just not right. Not right at all. I never saw one fan character that is normal, with no special powers, whatsoever. it just takes the fun out of role-playing, when you have a god for a friend, who destroys the mani villain, when you just announce it, the end! *sigh...*
2. Killing off characters out of nowhere
Stupid. Idiotic. Mind blowing. Not Fun. Nuff said.
"So, where exactly are we supposed to go again...?"
"*Stabs ??? with a dagger* Nighty night, someone-I-just-saw-off-the-streets-and-decided-to-kill-him-for-no-reason.... *Turns the dagger, then ??? dies*"
"...dude... what the hell?"
It's basically self-explanitory on how stupid that is.
3. Destroying things, even though you're not supposed to yet.
Do people have enough patience to wait for the main character to cue an attack on something? Do they!?
"Okay, in order to proceed onto getting Eggman, we need to destroy these generators. One of them must be located somewhere around here..."
"*Warps out, destroys all of the generators, kills Eggman, then warps back* The battle is over now. Now rest our heroes!"
"0_o"
It just makes something that at least usually 2 hours, done all in 2 seconds! THUMBS DOWN
4 FTW. Adding things into the storyline, thus, changing the atmosphere of the story.
Let the main character make it up on his own, as it goes, you little trolls! Don't add your own stuff, unless if it's your own story, or if it's rolling along with the storyline!
"Great, Eggman's going to destroy the whole city, if we don't stop him!"
"*Destroys the entire planet, leaving the earth just a bunch of flying space rocks*"
"OOC: Okay man, GTFO."
"OOC: NO U"
Which links up to:
5. Annoying character who just won't go away, no matter how many times you tell him/her to!
Spammer uses "World Oblivion!"
It's Super Effective!
Johnny's RP has fainted!
"*Uses chaos spear to destroy a continent full of people.*"
"OOC: I'm sorry but, you need to leave. You're not following up in the story. we've had enough of this!"
"OOC: %*&% YOU!"
"*Uses a bat to bludgeon Louie* HOME RUN, MOTHERF*CKER!"
"OOC: URRRRRGH!!! Go away, man! Your're making everyone leave!"
"OOC: GO @%*^ Yourself!" "*Does something very dirty*"
"OOC: GET LOST, NOOB!"
"OOC: NO U!" "*Uses an energy ball to blow up all of mankind and existance, except himself*"
These guys just put RPs down the crapper, basically :-\.
That's all I have about what I hate about role-plays in general so far... I'll post more on what else I hate about role-plays, once I think of more on... Tell me about what you hate about role-plays too, if you want. That's why this topic is here!
I totally agree
LIER DUDE LIES
I agree with you 100%. Those kinds of things just ruin role plays and make them unfun. Role plays can be really fun and immersive, however, with none of that dumb stuff messing it up.

THIS SHOULD BE STICKIED WITH A DIFFERENT NAME
hi im jet
umm another thing
what i hate about roleplays
sometimes can we slow down just about ONE PAGE??!! evertime i leave (like i'm about to ) i see three pages added on, and i can't catch up. that's why i have left the sonic romance rpg, super smash bros brawl, and i'm about to leave a couple more to un-stress myself, trying to keep up.
lmao. seriously, he's right.
Roleplay characters are supposed to be NORMAL.
Not...godmodded.
lolz
I've never role played, so I can't really say... but I guess the "godmodded" characters do sound a bit over the top :P
ahh, I wanna do a role play now!
Hey, yourrrr back!
That's why I stopped. Because there was never a plot.
And you people don't detail your posts.
*sighs*

No by awsome gimick I mean RPG styled play (http://z3.invisionfree.com/Hart_Corp_Forums/index.php?showtopic=282)or something like "The Hunt" (http://z3.invisionfree.com/Hart_Corp_Forums/index.php?showtopic=193)were I give you scenarios to choose from and hunt you down like a madmad. :D
I'm a very creative child. ;D
besides, i've become a more MATURE roleplayer..that is, until BEN pisses me off.

if you mean by "plot" it's writing ridiculously long parts for simple rp's , then yeah. the only time when it's rlly time to make those long ones (not trying to put you on blast[DAMMIT!! STOOPID TOM JOYNER IN THE MORNIN!!!] or anything) is when you have a gigantic battlealso, to make it easier, you should do this
zapo: hey jkid
jkid: hey (slaps zapo)
zapo: okay..mhmmm.....(shoots jkid)
jkid: (gets bazooka, and shoots zapo)
zapo: (gets in ROFL copter, and fires 5 ROFL missles at him, and liek, three hit)I WIN!!!!
jkid: (pops outta explosion ) [okay these are the lesson parenthesis,okay? so, ppl it's okay to be invincible in my rp's, the only thing is, you can only be invincible about 5 times, from getting smashed, explosions, drowning, getting shot {reviving counts as one invincibility point} spikes, etc, okay??] I'M BACK!!! (jkid losses 1 invincibility point,4 remaining) (fires a grenade at zapo, a blows him 70 miles)
[okay guys, now, you saw ow i shot MISSLES the other stuff was like "minor " damage, k? the missles made a BIG EXPLOSION , not a bazooka blast, the bazooka blast fortunately takes up no invincibility points , but you can't just constantly collateral damage ppl until they run outta points, only 1 collateral damage every 5 pages, otherrwise, we'd all be dead in my rp's.]
zapo: (runs back, and becomes a momodo)ZAKAIR!! (or ZAKARE, i dunno blasts) (jkid) (zapo used one invincibility point. he now has 4)
[okay, so that is the end of this tutorial; about MY invincibility pont, and restrictions, so yeah, sorry for this , but jkid, i wanted to help you, now all you have to do is use YOUR ppl in this format, okay?]

Scrip format sucks. It's easier for the lazy people, but I don't like it like that. I'd rather play the RP in normal format, like it's a storybook or novel or something. Script format is just, bleh. No offence to the people who RP like that, but that just ain't how I roll. :sunglasses:

Sooooo.....that whole lesson was about IP?
And besides, the people on my site really enjoy my crazy gimmicks. Just because it's an RP dosn't mean it can't have someting other than:
Jkid: *fires 1000 rockets at xaio*
xaio: Oh noez! *blocks it with his [insert name here] shield*
for about 50 friggen pages...
And jkid loves script format but he switches off sometimes unless it's in the rules...

hey , just sayin, because it's hard for me to read it, so it could be more fair to the pppl with seeing problems.you don't have to, but it's just for the better good of all .
should i mention there's offense points?? (that lets you use super attacks, like chaos blast, or like jkid said 1000 rockets.) you have a total of 100 of them, and each one (depending on how effective it would be) will take up from 1 point, to 5 points.
for instance:
zapo: (uses ultimate blast on (??) ) (zapo has lost 5 offensive points, 95 remaining)
something like that.
also, just so you guys don't bitch, i'll raise the defensive points to 25.

I wasn't complaning about script format....
I was complaing about how everysingle RP is pretty much the same...think about it. How often do you see RP's like this?
Jkid: *Runs behind a boulder and shoots his pistol*
xaio: *Dodges it and fire bottle rockets*
Pretty often right? No little gimick. Just random posting and fighting...now how often do you see RP's like this?
Jkid:
You look down the hall way and see two doors. You cannot turn back because you know i'm behind you...slowly...i creep up behind you...do you:
A. Pick the left door?
B. Pick the right door?
C. Attempt to turn back? xaio: Um...i'll pick B! ;D
Jkid:
You run down the hallway and close the left door behind you. You look around for a light switch and when you find one you turn it on. Thats when you see me...standing there with my knife. That is the last thing you ever see...
YOU ARE DEAD...
Not often at all...so why is it that all RP's are like that first example? Why does no one ever do someting creative? THAT'S what pisses me off... :(
