Warning, Dumb B!&ch. Also the reason why people don't RP at #552NOTICE: NOT EDITED IN ANY WAY. THAT IS HOW PEOPLE ACTUALY THINK ABOUT A SEMI-REALISTIC HIGHSCHOOL RP BOARD.

Meh, I do disagree with one history policy on this board, but I'm still using it... Or well, I intend to use it once I get my ass around to writing it...
But fun to read, and a bit enlightening.

Heh, I'd hate to RP there.

Some people are just plain ignorant... However, this is not 552's stance. This is the stance of a single Freshman member.
This is also a warning by the way. Don't let this turn into another flame war, or all participants will earn themselves a 90% warning level, and 2 week ban.
Keep it clean everyone.

Maverik. Edit his post. No one will pay attention to you since Shamino put "522" in enormous bold letters. In all honesty, this board and the others are pretty much exactly the same in terms of required slots and realism in bios. Maybe if that girl joined XIN during the first two-three months of their makings, students would be able to have whatever hair, "Chi" attacks and unsaid histories. But, meh.
Edit his post, Nick.
Thank you.

I'm not actually against a lack or realism....it's just this boards standard is all.
I am, however, overcome with sarcasm at this post. How dare 552 require people have natural colors for their human characters while blizzard lets an entirely different but equally limited set of colors for a different species.
What a horrible travesty.....and analogy.
Also, I personally think that nationality is absolutely necessary for realism over other things...honestly, if not, I can see a good 5th of site members on here being from Latveria.
I know I would.

I doubt Shamino's aim here was to directly attack RP2 anymore than he was attacking the RPer herself. After all, it's clear she's being rather unrealistic in that statement, and you would'nt believe how hard it was for me to stop from busting a lung at her logic.
If a flame war starts from this, then ban whoever starts it. But I think you're taking this on a bit of a zealous level there Maverik. After all, we see Shamino routing out this sort of idiocy all the time, don't we?
Besides, I think we can all agree that no matter what board she had stated that, we'd all laugh at her. People like that have just as much chance of being here as there. So it's not so much flaming 552 that it is flaming people in general.

The last flame war ended most of them because I simply went to RP2 and told them to stop.
Also, there's an agreement between myself and the admin to take anyone who goes on a site and flames to give the other site the information to ban them.
Simply, whoever goes beyond thier native site losses the ability to post on both.

After a short check, I noticed something, Shamino.
YOU Rp at 552.
And took this particular post way out of context, that was her opinion alone, and wasn't acknowledged by any other member.
It's like watching a bad reporter trying to shame a perfectly normal town.
On Topic: That is an extremely ridiculous thought on realism, at least from my point of view. People like that deserve to get smacked.

Korin, notice a few things.
Title of thread: NEWBIES STANCE on Character Sheets. Did he say this was everyone's opinion on 552? No.
Having the screen shot: Means he'd have to be a part of 552, because unless they've changed it yet again, it's locked to non-members.
So, feel a bit sheepish yet?

1) He did say it was 552's stance, originally. Maverik edited it. 2) It's not locked to non-members. I went there to see the full context of the topic and I didn't have to join to view the board or that topic.

Did you turn a blind eye to the word 'Unless'?

No, I was just notifying that apparently they did change it.

That is the cause of my post. Also the reason yours is irrelevant.

The fact that Shamino has a account on 552 is not news to anyone who has any experience on this site....or at least, shouldn't be....
Furthermore why does anyone still actually care about this? I mean, I'm haing to keep an eye out so the thread doesn't burst into flames, but besides that I fail to see how this should be discussed any further.
Now, I'm not saying I could have missed a point, I just fail to see one.

I agree with Kurtz on this one. Unless someone can find a valid use for this thread, please just let it fade into the void of the next page. Else a mod will lock it.

Actualy? I don't RP on 552. I mean, i tried- I tried several times to show them normalacy. I gave up, and stay there as a constant reminder of perfected awesomeness.
Maverik, don't touch my thread, Thanks. This is a hilarious post, and the thread was trying to find reasons why people don't RP at 552, so my title isn't technically an insult.

I have an account on 552(unless they deleted it), but have yet to post more than twice there.
Besides proving the point that Shamino has an account is not a good arguement (sorry, my major revolved around that sort of thing), I still do not think this thread is a good idea.
I just don't think starting a confrontational thread of any sort with 552 will lead to anything good...for both sites...and I especially am not going to encourage it at all. While this wouold usually be the point where I would lock the thread, I am unfortunatly the same rank as Shamino for the remainder of the week, so I can't overturn his decision.
In short, when someone thinks this thread goes too far, ask the boss man to address it....besides that, I just would like to see this thread go somewhere constructive.

Maverik, don't touch my thread, Thanks. I simply changed the title to say that it was that person's stance, not 552's. Everything else was left in tact. In an attempt to get some use out of this thread... What does everyone think about the Bio system? What's YOUR stance?

My stance is that the vast majority of the internet does not understand the difference between nationality and ethinicity.
But I believe this problem of mine has been explored in-depth already.
