Unfunny wanky stereotypes

Rundown: [community profile] rpanons is an anonymous community for role-play related topics. This place serves as a forum for game discussions, canon discussions, RP solicitations (ATP, game ads, open memes), and advice. The occasional off topic comment is inevitable, but please keep heated social and political topics to their respective communities. Posting them here will only get them frozen. Subsequent threads made to bypass a freeze will then be deleted.

Rules:

Do not post pornographic or shocking images.
Do not share private entries, plurks, chat logs, etc.
Do not use this community as your social/political/hatespeech soapbox.
Do not be redundant. One page does not need three or more threads on one topic/theme.
Do not treat this comm like your personal Plurk or Twitter. Off-topic happens, but it should be open for discussion and not just a play-by-play of your life. No one cares.

1. nothing bad, usually. i've played against a lot of great ones, and the series is pretty much perfect for it.

2. i don't really care. even if they're nothing more and a name in canon, you can still turn them into an awesome character to play against.

the only thing that is a definite turn off are people who insist on how "canon" everything they're doing is -- bitch, your character has two lines in canon (if that), and that nearly twenty years after the point you chose to play them at. don't act like what you're doing is playing anything but a canon oc based on a very, very large amount of your own interpretation. as implied before, there's absolutely nothing wrong with doing just that. it can be tons of fun to play or play against. just don't get all high and mighty about it.

3. unf, can't decide. tons of first war death eaters and order members. dorcas meadows (not sure about the spelling), rabastan lestrange, the carrows...

i pretty much agree, i was curious about how much of the sentiment against it comes from outside of the fandom/within it

really, i haven't seen much of a sentiment against the marauder era (or earlier) characters.

now, next!gen? i've hardly seen anything good said about those.
