Yes, because these incoming f2p players aren't real people.

Quote:All I read were multi-paragraphs saying CO makes them look ugly! which is, again, not the fault of the concept, but of it's implementation in that specific game.Since we've given specific reasons why it's bad and you just keep saying, "Nuh-uh, you guys are doodyheads," I'm going to consider this a win on the anti-CO-character-editor side. Thanks for playing.
But okay, keep thinking you won. -
Quote:And you folks are still hyper-focusing on CO's implementation of it and screaming DO NOT WANT.
Ironik and Sam_Tow say words. -
Quote:No kidding.Specific portions of the theoretical design of that editor are decent, but the editor itself is some of the worst, least intuitive things I've seen in a while, and it's stocked with about 90% garbage. Also, because of how many of the things are rigged, it's next to impossible to make anything that isn't butt ugly unless you stick to a small selection of predefined body and face shapes anyway. As a thought experiment, that editor works. As an actual tool to use, it's horrible.
But I'm mocking the absolute refusal to even think about such a system due to fanboy tunnel vision.
Don't blame the concept when it should be pointed towards developer ineptitude. -

Quote:Any of the oldies might remember Angelus/Geisha. When Pocket D was still young, and before /getglobalname, Ang made a character named Mother Kindly. Going around the D, Kindly would read the bios of other characters and use the information written therein to abrubtly throw it ICly in the other character's face in a very cryptic and creepy way.This is useless to good RPers, and a goldmine to metagamers. I'd suggest not putting anything about your character in the bio that you wouldn't expect to come up during a casual interaction with another character. If they are secretly the lost heir of a small European country, which you are planning on revealing in a suitably dramatic fashion in an upcoming storyline? Don't put in the bio. The best thing that happens is that everyone who RPs with you will ignore it. The worst thing is that a character with connections in the international intelligence community will make a few phone calls and hack into a database, and announce their "discovery" to the entire bar.
Since this was before /getglobalname, I didn't know and raged in globalchat about it, while Ang basically smiled and nodded.
It really reinforced the whole 'If you don't want others to know about it, don't write it down in your bio.'
Sometimes I wish Mother Kindly or someone like it would make a return -

No, no, no!
But you can spill all the screwdrivers you want after that!
Although you shouldn't be spilling them in the first place..
Alcohol abuse, man. Not cool. -
Will you be the first person to make a non-objectified futa character?
Hmm.. catgirl with huge mammaries, penor and skimpy clothing.
I remain skeptical. -
And yes, AE is still killing the game

I suppose it depends what is more prevalent, the spoken part or the emoted part. If there's more spoken, and the action is fairly minor, then *****. Otherwise, italics.

Two way streets and all that.
