Oh, that's good I presume?

(Yeah, there are...)
(Jai, Jack, John, Johanna, hehe any more? a James or something? )
( My middle name is Jack :P )
No Js in my name!
( YOu made me want to guess again ughh :P

BOOM! -SOMETHING HAPPENS-
( ahhhhhhhhh something!!!!!!!!!!!!! run for your lives !!!!!!!!!!! (¬~¬)
@Keiron: Ooh, I like that. :)
What name do you think would suit me? I'm curious now!
*gasp*
WHOA
SOMETHING HAPPENED
it cool cause like, your both old and young at the same time! :0
(*Twirls his finger halfheartedly*)
(If only you guys knew what the something was, you wouldn't be so happy...)
(Josh and jack are my brothers ^.^)
BUM BUM BUUUUUUUM!!!!
WHAT IS THIS SOMETHING?!
Oh no, what is it Blake?
( I know baby :P )
Is it a bird, is it a plane? ...
( I dunnno Dug... I think something long that gets shortened a lot like Abigail .. :P)
Huh.
(for your name... )
Um no guys. Swirl basically made someone giant and they farted and now a massive killer gas cloud is coming towards us. Run!!!!!!
-Aquila, Swirl and me have vanished-
O>O *is ghosting* *ghosts shouldn't be affected by gas clouds* :p
(Shh just go with it johanna)
(Swirl doesn't make people huge. She shrinks people to mow them with a scythe... ^^ )
**silent hill siren can be heard as he puts on a gas mask* )
Con: *turns into shadow and sighs with relief*
Enphilia: *hides underwater *
Celbor: * is in his cloud should be fine*
Ragnarok: *burns hotly... if it comes near him it will set alight*
(Everyone wants to try and ruin my plots ;-;)
-blake and chi are immune to the smell because of the twins nappies-
-so are the rest of the mothers and fathers-
-juvia hides under water-
-cordelia turns into a scythe-
-everyone else hides and only passes out when it reaches them-
( *hugs Gemmy* :/ :P )
Enphilia: *sees Juvia and waves*
Con: *sits in shadow form waiting for it to pass*
Ragnarok: *sets fire to the gas around him making a chain of mini explosions*
*hugs gemmy* *thinks of something* *yup, think i am gonna do it this time* ^_^
(Forget it...i know it was stupid but people could have humoured me. The first origional plot i've thought up in ages. It was the first thing i thought of that could be the 'something'
-sighs-
I'm going to bed. What's the point trying to bring people together? We're all too far gone.)
( what you going to do Frank> )
(Do what, Frank?)
( ....babbyyyy !! -hugs tightly- it can still happen even if it wasn't swirl that made them big.. )
( oh make a wish !)
(No it doesn't matter, it's stupid as hell why would anyone want to rp with a plot like that?
Goodnight.)
(Gemma... aren't pepole together already? ... and sorry, I had no idea that plot meant so much to you... ^^
You can have it this once, if you want. ... just don't have her do stuff for you again, just like that. I'm a jealous person, when it comes to my OCs. ;P)
( not really Aq... we're all so distanced ... )
(You lot seem to get along, though? I mean, I did notice that there was a fair amount of moments where no one would do anything but ghost while two, or max four people roleplayed, but...
... maybe you just need more fun, short, in blogland set roleplay? A lot of the roleplay here is exclusive, and you can't just have your OC join... )
nothing.
( hence the plan to have an all out thing , like a giant person farting.... frank skype me... )
(Ah, makes sense, I guess.)
Aquila: -flew up high as eagle, hovering above the cloud-
Swirl: -blocking the edges of windows and door of her treehouse with wet towels, hoping for it to go past-
Me: -hopped through a door out of blogland-
*Walks out on to his porch, completely oblivious*
(Turns out today was a quiz in algebra, super easy and the professor let me out when I finished it!)
(Really leaving for now. Night all. )
(Aw, bye...)
..
My great grandma died today
*hugs Noelle*
I'm sorry... :-(
(If anyone watches Attack on Titan.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mqkzTyjZgPs
You can thank me later.)
(That is unfortunate, Noelle.)
(I agree, Star. Even when under some form of mind control it would be the character's author who would still be controlling them.)
You /cannot control people's OCs/. That is just pretty much THE main roleplay rule.
You can insist that you were just trying to bring people together, but that's a bit like me stealing a car and, when I get caught, saying "oh but I've got attached to it now and I've never had a car as good as this :(."
I'm sorry, but it doesn't work. The fact you have emotions does not justify breaking the law. Because the people affected by you breaking the law have emotions too, yes?
Laws are there for a reason.
Sorry, had to delete and rephrase to make it more neutral.
@Sophia: *nodsnods in agreement with your agreement*
(Perhaps there should be written rules concerning the roleplay.)
@Sophia: I'm of the opinion they probably won't last. It doesn't matter what other rules there are or have been over the years, "you cannot control other people's OCs" is just the Golden Rule. On this law hangs all the commandments and the prophets. :P
(*hugs star*
*cuddles Sophi!!!*
*frowns cause I can hear a weird noise very faintly that hurts my ears..*)
(It would, perhaps, help new people who join to get into the hang of it. Somewhere to direct them to rather than telling them the rules as they break them.)
(*she cuddles Jaimie back* Hello, Jaimie.)
:) *hugs Jai*
@Sophia: True.
(Hey Sophi. *noogies!*)
(I also think the act of writing the rules down strengthens them. There are several historical cases in which, due to a lack of written laws, flexible rules ensued, with no one obeying them completely, but no one breaking them either. Having such a situation hardly benefits anyone.)
-sighs- Star, Sophia, I DO let others have my two at times. The only reason I minded Gemma's attempt was because it was a bit off character for Swirl.
Just saying - if you catch someone with mine, leave it to me please.
Also, hello.
@Sophia: If you say so. I think many would argue that making roleplay less flexible takes some if the casual funness out of it, though. Plus there are a few different types of roleplay . . .
@Aquila: If they have your permission, it's different. It becomes borrowing as opposed to stealing.
No one stole anything, though. ^^
Well, I disagree wholeheartedly with the idea of this place having several different types of roleplay.
That is, if all the glorified slap-fighting that goes on here even meets the bare qualification of roleplay.
@Aquila: 'Twas a metaphor. Sorry for not making that clear. :(
Just, controlling other people's OCs without consent is never okay and no one should expect it to be okay.
@Sir: I would say we define the definition of Blogland roleplay as we go along.
It's nice that you tried taking my side, problem is the side you took isn't mine. I'll take offense myself when I think it's appropriate. Thanks anyway. ^^
Swirl: Even if everyone else was writing their versions of me, I stay hers.
Aquila: Same here.
Sir, why don't you try to change that, then? I'm curious what role play to your liking would be like.
Change Blogland's long, storied history of poorly written self-inserts?
Little old me?
Far be it from me to challenge history. The only reason I'm still around is deep bitterness.
@Aquila: I'm not taking your side. I'm taking my side.
(Sorry. Trying very hard to keep my argumentativeness down. It's a bit like listening to a song you love but having to keep the volume turned low enough that you can't hear it properly. You so much want to turn it up so that adrenaline can just soar through you, but you know you can't. When you are a person who is naturally filterless, it makes it harder. So, apologies if I slip up or have done already.)
It's fine Syar, it just bugged me that the two of you brought up something that had already been solved and judged the actions of someone not here to defend themselves. Isn't that exactly what you didn't want us to do to Sophia? I think Gemma deserves the same, then, no?
But meh. That's all I want to say on it, so have an attempt at changing the topic:
How are you?
@Aquila: Firstly, I was talking to Gemma. I'm fully expecting her to respond next time she comes online. Secondly, I'm telling everyone here that it's not okay. Thirdly, I'm ranting, because I was rather annoyed.
Alright. Topic change. Msd; at school.
I'm . . . feeling pretty angry and frustrated because of having to tap into my argumentativeness whilst suppressing most of it. You? :)
(Stating that Gemma did something in conflict with the accepted rules of roleplaying is not something that requires her to be here for. I am not mad at her whatsoever. I am not insulting her in the slightest. I am stating a fact, just as a matter of observation. It is not the same as me not being here to defend myself when I was actually being insulted.)
I'm fine, having a late breakfast. ^^
For this month, I get to sleep in on Thursdays, which is pretty nice. ^^
*nods at Sophia*
I think it's different to discuss an action of a person (when that action impacts others here) than to discuss the merits and shortcomings of a person. I'm not on 100% confident ground here though, so I'm liable to change my mind on the matter.
Sophia, I think I didn't insult you but just judge your way of dealing with Fera? Sorry if you felt insulted.
*can't really remember discussion that well*
(I was not talking about you, Aquila. I am aware of what you were doing - you seemed to have misjudged the meaning of a permanent solution but regardless - although I took no offence on the matter, I rather think Fera's attempts at calling me selfish and manipulative - both of which are laughably untrue - were meant as insults. That was what I was speaking about.)
Ermmmm first period starting now. Adios.
(Goodbye, Star.)
I'm fairly sure that's his honest opinion, actually.
... personally, I'd rather go with violent and proud.
@Sophia: Yeah, that helped me remember. Yep.
(Violent, perhaps, but in no way, shape or form am I proud, I can assure you. Rather the opposite.)
I think I get that from the way you interact with people that aren't your friends.
(It is quite ordinary to act differently and hide aspects of yourself when in the presence of people you do not like.)
Soph, there's a lot between being friends and disliking someone. At least for most people. So I wasn't only talking about with people you dislike.
(I agree. For most people here, however, I either like or dislike them, making them the two most prominent categories. With people I neither like or dislike, I act somewhere in the middle.)
How would you describe it, of you think proud doesn't fit? Because calm, neutral or even cold are not what comes to mind, for me.
(I do not know what your interpretation of me is, so I do not know how to describe it.)
I meant to ask you how you describe your way of interacting with people you do not like.
Off for university, bye!
(I caused an argument again...i always do this when i don't mean to...i'm just trying to bring everyone together...the last group RP we did was saving Sil from Hecate i think and that happened ages ago...
-sighs-
I want everyone to be involved in a big RP that we keep with for a while and that people can jump in and out of at any time. Whenever we RP it ends up relying on one person like the Erebus one, we couldn't RP without John and that lasted 2 days. I don't want that to happen.)
(My cosplay is here!))
(What you cosplaying as, Chlo?)
(-hugs Gemmy tightly- )
(Haruhi from ouran high school host club ^.^

((*huggles* no
