Rundown: 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.

I suspect part of it is a tendency for fictional characters to be have an emphasis on one or two traits to an exclusion to everything else, along with a trained RP mentality that you must inevitably pick faction A or faction B but not both or neither.

But yeah, this sort of thing is incredibly frustrating. I made the mistake of mentioning to a player in an OOC conversation that I was glad my character could be wrong about things, because sometimes our characters would be working together on a problem and I would've hated to be in one of those situations where the character is a genius who Is Never Wrong (the problem with playing someone like Sherlock Holmes). Suddenly, the other player's character was convinced anything mine said was wrong.
