Personally, I often try to avoid playing my own nemesis, mainly because that eliminates the whole arena of surprise in having someone else playing against you....
I think that it's more fun to ask someone whose writing I enjoy and respect and play well against, and who likes mine in return, to be my nemesis. It makes it...
I'm new here and i'll skip an introduction. ... Depends on the type of game, but for the most part I wouldn't think of starting a game without knowing I had a...
I am thinking that in a less constrained environment that proceeds for a long enough time, my characters would naturally form nemisesseses (ugh) with other...
Hmmm that really depends on the game and my fellow players. Mostly, though, if the hero vs. nemisis thing involves other people somehow, I do prefer to play...
I usually get someone else to do it, but it's someone I trust. Purgatory was completely good vs evil, and so I needed people to play the bad guys who could do...
Welcome to the list. And what's wrong with automatic signatures/ I used to have a .sig generator, but I haven't installed it on this machine yet. Shannon All...
So we've distinguished on this list before that there are two different kinds of online RPG players, the ones who are primarily gamers, coming from a table-top...
Again a well-worn topic over here, but it's always fun, so let's bring it up. My character pet pieve is and has always been helpless female characters. It...
shannon.. i agree with you there, and we have talked about the little wallflower, 'who me' kinda female that just sets my teeth on edge... i desperatly TRY not...
Character 1: "I come in and sit in the dark of the room. I watch the others, they are all stupid and foolish. I am so much better then them. I will sit here...
I concur with character number two. I find it really annoying when folks have absolutely no ability to avoid using out of character knowledge. And then they...
Number 2 I've heard so many times. My character is a telepath, and anything you think is automatically at the more mot of your brain, and even though I'm not...
... Or, what happens when *I'm* GMing: the GM sends a character to talk to the loner and the loner basically ignores said character and then whines OOCly that...
I only read the title of this and then went off to do something, thinking "Character I hate? My first one, in my first game. Silver hair and all." *cringe*...
I can't say much about characters whose sole purpose is to hook up and/or have sex...cause I've had a lot of characters who seemed to be that way. But at least...
Hmm I've got a few The Aggressive Healer: He *always* knows how to fix your problem and will fix it whether you want it fixed or not. It doesn't matter if...
... Or in Star Trek, it's the ex-Borg drone character, a la 7 of 9. In the show, whenever some obscure piece of information needed to be produced in order for...
Along the similar lines of the "Characters we hate" thread... Besides obvious things like horrible spelling/grammer and people who think they're such wonderful...
yup...i got quite an extinsive list as well. but the worst...the ones that make me bang my head against the keyboard... Elves. yup. elves. all of them and all...
i have never rejected a player based on their application yet, but there have been many that made me scream and make the person fix it or not play (their...
... Dude, I'm so there. :) I'm not sure it's that much of a big deal anymore - what with LOTR being over now. What do you guys think? More, less, or about the...
Considering I've been playing D & D Online, I think I spent an hour just kicking back in a tavern laughing at how many Drizzt or Legolas clones were running...
Personally? Grammar and the ability to use the English language without bludgeoning it to death are the *most* important things. No, I'm not a grammar nazi and...
I think elves have their place in a fantasy setting, but then I have a tendency to actually give my elves individual personalities. And they aren't all tall...
