16. No one is OOC to the point where I'm going to be a retarded RPer and whine that they are 'idiots' who don't 'deserve' a character, since a lot of characterization, especially changing the circumstances they are in, is subjective.

But I will say that the Lois Lane and the Gatts are freaking awesome. Farf sometimes goes off canon, but mostly stays IC. I love how you don't have Yachiru or the KH or D. Grayman gang up there, since they are the only ones OOC (aside from the rushed narusasu). I'm a huge Adventures of Lois and Clark fan, and I love how both of them are played. And Gatts? I suffer from having three older brothers, unfortunately, who have all been obsessed with Berserk from 1995. And while it isn't my favourite manga (not into the gore and rape), Gatts is basically spot-on and perfectly IC. I say this as someone who is perfectly caught up in the manga (and love the gatts and griffith there so much i've wanted to app as a berserk character). After the Sacrifice, Gatts remains very dark and brash and harsh on the outside, while being an emotional ball of angst on the inside. I haven't seen the player deviate from canon.

And I remember actually being impressed with Lois Lane. The RPer does her calm, collected, smart, sassy, and makes her value the truth above all, which is what she does. The Clark and Lois relationship is played out awesomely.

I haven't seen Vincent do anything OOC, either.

I am just laughing at how all of the worst players there weren't even attacked. The ones completely disregarding characterization in favour of stupid yaoi logs and recent posts. You seem like a h8r ;-)

♥ aww, I'm glad someone loves our L&C Love~ :D It fills me with warmth, because those two are my favourite to play, by far!!!

[shatters.livejournal.com]

I do agree with your points, but I do think the DGM gang is very IC- except for myself with Kanda right now. XD;; Then again Kanda's OOC right now is on purpose so~ hopefully he'll go back to normal soon.

[continuing.livejournal.com]

Thanks XD; <-- Vincent's player. I'm a little confused as to why he's on there XDDD

[(Anonymous)]

Vincent is one of the MOST out of character, IMO.

But nearly all RPd Vincents tend to suck monkey balls, so no big deal.


Stick to writing bad self-insert fics and get out of my games, people.

[attaining.livejournal.com]

I totally agree that characterization is subjective, especially given the circumstances surrounding Paradisa.

But, I honestly don't think it's fair for ANYONE to be attacked like this, you know? Attacking someone anonymously in a public forum is really mean, especially when some of these muns might be very young. Replying to the OP in defense of the characters listed by putting down OTHER characters instead? While your heart was in the right place, that's not cool either. That's just my opinion. &hearts

I rock at coming late to the party.

SO. Dilan's on there. Dilan is also mine. I find this interesting! Since Dilan has exactly ZERO hard canon to go off. None. His history is implied, just like all the other apprentices. So were you looking for the bitchy, cool, manipulative Xaldin? Because guess what THIS ISN'T HIM. Shocking I know. Though he'd be fun to play, I consider Dilan HUMAN, what with having his heart and all. So he's outgoing. Someone call the wambulance.

color me amused. bye now~

[aishiteru.livejournal.com]

although randomly, I'm kind of honored that Dilan's is the first name on that list. It's so nice to be thought of~

Because I am an oddling, I decided to check this 'paradisa' out and see what the wank was about. (Also, being a huge fan of most of those canons mentioned)

I didn't understand the big deal. First I checked the Lois' posts on the main community (using the tag system, thnx paradisa~) and she seemed pretty Lois-y to me. All about the facts, a truth-seeker, and a journalist at heart. Her relationship with Clark seems well-played, and I like how she is not caring what other characters have to say about her sharing the truth. That's the Lois I know.

Then I checked Gatts, fearing what I'd see. There are so many ways you can go wrong with him-making him too tragic or perfect, or too silent. Judging by their icons and their interaction with Griffith, and the comments in the page before, if it is Black Swordsman Gatts I see no problem with the way he is behaving. Before the Branded Sacrifice, I would imagine him to be much softer and kinder, but still an asshole.

The interaction with the Griffith is actually interesting (who is that griffith, btw? I love the way both of them interact~), since he seems reluctant to try and have things be normal again and, apparently, snapped and killed him. That uh. Seems pretty IC to me. Gatts has mixed feelings on Griffith (see; chapter of hill of swords, griffith's rebirth, sir owen asking him about griffith, schierke spotting griffith in his subconscious), and these two players act it out splendidly, not overdoing the friendship thing, keeping any slashy jokes very light-hearted and for obvious humour, and the Gatts is actually amusing. His fights with Ino have kept me up all night, reading. I'm tempted to join, but if it has this drama then nvm~

The Dilan is OOC? From what I have seen he is rather kind and dutiful, and outside of Xaldin there is not much canon to build off of. Dilan is pretty much open for interpretation. I ask you, OP, do you know your canon, well? So far the three characters I have defended certainly do.

The Vincent has done nothing OOC. Nor has the Brite or the Shampoo. Why is there any attacking of Toph or Yui? From what I checked on the tags, they post very little and do not have much interaction (yet I find them to be IC). Which Cloud do you mean, OP? And the Gatts has only had, what, four entries? All I see in them is his loud, angry self; and Gatts (post-eclipse) is very impatient with people and weak will.

What has the Yuugi done wrong? Or the Lucien?

Hm, the only characters I noticed that were off..., well, all but one or two are not on that list. Perhaps you need to reconsider your own canon interpretations, as these people are hardly not 'deserving'. I honestly expected to see something worse, but was pretty impressed with Dilan/Lois/Gatts.

Then again, I do not know everyone's prices :) Except the ones that have been named in these comments -has nothing better to do than to read them all-

You seem like a pretty big whiner, OP. This is just from an outsider view, of course. I wonder what character(s) you play? I'm sure they were probably the ones I was snickering at.

Re: re; 16

[(Anonymous)]

I agree with this whole post, and as a player at Paradisa I strongly suspect that I know who the OP is. Which makes it all the more funny, since, if it is them (and I'm pretty sure it is), well, I kind of hate the way they RP their character.

[ironjill.livejournal.com]

Honestly? This is the first bit of "drama" that we've had, and I think it kind of Broad-sided up like a 2x4. Seriously. The whole lot of us have made an anti-hate campaign in retaliation.

Seriously though, I love you for taking the time to look at it and make your own opinion, that's really commendable.

Re: re; 16

[shadhahvar.livejournal.com]

I agree with Jill; it's all the more impressive you took the time to form your own opinions by researching on the comm itself.

...And Gatts and Griffith are awesome. I'm biased, however, so the opinion is very much opinion. =)

And I keep saying this, but... Lois is hard for me to play. If I'm doing her wrong, I need to be told; and I thank those of you who say I'm pulling her off respectably (I hope).

Re: re; 16

[aishiteru.livejournal.com]

.... yay! 8D THANK YOU. there ISN'T canon to build off outside Xaldin! so it's mad improvisation. that's just how it is. And I know a lot of people expect Dilan to be Xaldin lite, and I'm sorry, that just doesn't work for me. He's a character that deserves a more complex background.

YAY IAWTC. A LOT.

but honestly? yeah. this is the first drama I've spotted and it hasn't actually affected the comm that much? it's worried and upset a few people but far as I've seen it's just made a lot of them more determined to carry on as they were. XD honestly this has all been vaguely amusing to me though I'm sad that some people were hurt over it. :( uncool.

I love the Gatts(Guts? Gutz? Gattz?) at Paradisa. I don't know which canon Lois Lane is from but she seems so sexy and fun with her dry humor! The Gatts' log with Ino was one of the more interesting ones I've seen posted, and I love his interaction with her and Griffith.

And I LOVE the Vincent there. And the Clouds. So stop being a lameass.

The only ones I can agree with are Naruto (well only as of recently with the forced sasunaru, but ^^; maybe I'm just jaded from seeing the pairing happen everywhere), and Swann (he should have a bit more depth and not just be used for comedy, but he is funny).

The Griffith there should be a bit more scheming or manipulative, maybe. He seems too nice! But then again he wouldn't have much to do ^^ without an army. (I watched the anime and then read the volumes that take place after the Eclipse, so my opinion on Griffith might be a bit off)


The worst ones aren't on there, so maybe the OP is one of them.

I don't want drama coming to such a great RPG already tho

Re: Sixteen

[griffith.livejournal.com]

:} griffith likes that you think he's nice. ♥ it means his plans are working. ohohoho. except the fact he's dead. ... oops.

O-oh my.

[dearweatherby.livejournal.com]

Well, even if you do not like me, I am still quite fond of you~!

Do drop by and we'll have a nice, warm cup of tea. Perhaps then you might change your mind? O-oh my, I do find this terrible. I never quite know what to say whenever someone dislikes me so!

Re: O-oh my.

[griffith.livejournal.com]

i bet they're pro-beckett.

[faggotry.livejournal.com]

Holay crap. I can't for a second believe my character isn't on there. She's as OOC as they get. What she lost causes that but this person doesn't appear like they'd realize that.
I mean...
Dilan? How the heck can you fault Dilanmun's ICness? Dilan is about as close to an OC as Paradisa can get. You don't actually MEET him..I just...*confused*

And Gatts? And Lois...I just don't......whatever. I don't get their reasoning at ALL, yo.

[clockworkclaws.livejournal.com]

Hayner-player is late to the game! Guess I slept through this.

Thank god for fandom wank. Without it, I would be so bored.

I'm sure once I start playing Gin people will be like "OOC ALERT LOL"

What a completely bitchtastic thing your friend said. I hope you dumped her.

That is, assuming this is even real. I think I'm going to have to call troll because I don't want to believe any thinking, coherent person could be that stupid.

You can get condoms for free from quite a few places - when you get birth control? Yeah, a lot of doctors will give you condoms at the same time. At least here in the UK... and even if you live elsewhere, I know for a fact many health clinics and the like give them away for free if you request them.

Some public restrooms have machines you can buy them out of. For like a quarter.

For your unborn kid's sake, do it a favour and get an abortion while you still can. I shudder to think of you becoming a parent to any living creature, human or otherwise. Here's hoping you'll wise up in the future. :/

This seriously made me LOL. You said everything I wanted to, only much nicer.

I'm convinced it's a troll but on the off chance it's not, TIME TO PUT SOME CHLORINE IN THE GENE POOL!

4.) Lul, this is why if you're only close with someone because of fandom bonding, you should really not put too much on a lasting relationship with them (this isn't always the case but usually). I'm sorry your friend is such a douche. I would have punched her and then impregnated her.

6.) Yeah except you'd be dead in that fire down there.

5.) Ouran host club boys have no depth and all look the same.

Yeah I went there.

11.) Wow you sure are too cool for school.

16.) Get a life and stop obsessing over things to complain about. God why are RPers such whiney bitches. Have fun with your hobby-oh wait. It obviously isn't your hobby and has crossed over to 'a crucial part of your life that boosts your fragile little go' if you're holding in some secret angst and anger over other players. Just play with yourself.

10.) If he did it constantly, then I'd say it was justified. If he just didn't like fandom, then you need to learn how to actually work through differences in relationships rather than just dumping someone who doesn't hold or agree with your interests.

4. Oh yes, because pregnancy should totally become a "punishment". LOL. I think it's already punishment enough. Ick. Personally I'd sooner fuck a furry than have to crap out a watermelon-sized anything from down there.

5. And I agree with you. I don't understand the appeal of that series. Then again I hate Naruto and Bleach too so maybe I'm just abnormal. :P

16. ...Agreed here, too. Fandom (especially celeb fandom) RPers are pretty much infamous for being the worst of the worst and fairly psychotic OOC. They all strike me as creepily obsessive. I've yet to meet ONE that didn't have any major psychological issues.

I love how all the roleplayers are over here like, "OMG I HOPE THEY MEAN MY CHARACTER! HEE! HEE!" when you know they went to blare shitty emo music and sob into their pillows immediately afterwards. Expect some locked "I cut myself, my black soul bleedz" posts later, too.

Because we all know roleplaying someone else's creation is SERIOUS FUCKING BUSINESS.

Re: 16

[ew-younerd.livejournal.com]

Hey, I totally hoped they didn't mean my character....

WELL I KIND OF COULDN'T SINCE MY CHARACTER WAS UP THERE. But a few people have already told me not to really take it seriously, and I am realizing how ridiculous it is to get worked up over :P a freaking another RPer's retarded comment.

IT'S PRETTY EMBARRASSING I HAVE TO ADMIT.
