Re: What turns people from RP?

Actually, I got turned off to RP because of the attitude that it involves some sort of great effort and suffering, an attitude usually expressed by those who claim to be "creating three-dimensional characters" but who are instead practicing wish-fulfillment and self-insertion of the most blatantly narcissistic kind (as witnessed by their propensity for personal OOC offense and dramatics in response to IC actions). If being creative and having fun is emotionally draining and you think that is what it should be, then frankly there's something wrong with you.

RP died when people started spending more time making character wikis and character DeviantArt pages and character LiveJournals and talking about the precious angst of their characters instead of logging in and playing the damn game by interacting with other people.
