((Some bitter criticism to everybody who RPs Tiger&Bunny and a hiatus note. Don't read if you don't like critiques.
You probably noticed that I haven't been on much and I can easily blame that on college application process and such, but I think I need to be more strait.
I'm totally fine with RPing Keith but somehow I don't feel like I was able to . . . connect with everybody. Its not your fault, its just that I'm not too flexible with my character. My characters are usually envisioned and set in stone as is, and they usually don't change much as I RP so outsiders can still recognize that its my character. It irked me that many Tiger&Bunny characters just didn't seem . . . in character. I am not insulting anybody, you can take this as a critique, a rant, or simply ignore it.
I feel like a lot of characters can't even be called those characters anymore--I'm not saying names, but try rereading your own passages and see if you can actually envision your character doing those actions and saying those words. Your version of the character might, but try watching an episode or two of T&B and then try doing the same thing. I'm sure the result will be slightly different. Also a warning to those who are still getting used to their character: don't stereotype. Just because they're shy doesn't mean they stutter like crazy, or just because they're clumsy doesn't mean they are dumb. I mean it, it ruins the unique personality each character has.
I also noticed that many characters were dating other characters for the sake of dating. Its not their OTP, but they just didn't want their character to be single. You can notice it in the RP...its . . . passionless. Its not that I'm taking RPing too seriously--it's that I'm an script writer, though not a pro or anything, and I know when certain emotions are to be expressed and such. The script are simply words coming out of the actors mouth, it is the actors job to make them real. Show emotions, do some action, do some adlibbing. Reading some of the RPs I see on my dash pains me a little to see the lack of enthusiasm. I admit, I ended up like that too, which is why I decided to take a break from RPing for a while. This account will be on hiatus until I decide on what to do with it.
I hope you're all mature enough not to turn this into an anon hate rage thing. Being anonymous to insult somebody is being cowardly.
I apologize to anybody who felt offended when reading this, but I think the fact that you got offended means something in the passage is right about you.
You can go fix it or leave it be and never improve.
I'll be taking my leave now,
Bye.
