help meme please

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. Your unfunny, forced memes also fall under this rule.
Do not treat this comm like your personal therapist. Threads about nonfictional suicide, self injury, rape, and abuse will be deleted. There are better resources out there for you.
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.
Shut up about Tumblr. If it's not a discussion about Tumblr RP it will be deleted.

I play a villain but it's difficult to get CR going for him.

I have to tag out a lot, approach everyone for plotting and when I post something on CR memes or anything it gets ignored. And I don't mind reaching out at all and I understand that CR with a villain is not what most people want. But I had expected it to be less difficult.

Who do you play? Because there are a few specific villains I can think of I avoid CR with because they're not written well.

i can think of one who does not write their "villain" much like a villain at all.

god i was judging that greed just based off their awful icons, guess it only makes sense their actual writing is bad too

the soundwave with the little girl avatar creeps me out, actually. is that like...canon? i don't know enough about transformers to know if it's just unfortunate canon or like. what.

i only curr about beastwars but a quick perusal in the wiki

https://tfwiki.net/wiki/Holomatter_avatar

they're a thing and can run the gamut of female avatars to babies to old men but they're usually like... kind of reflective of the bots personalities? megatron picks a holo that's a retired boomer man that looks like a super-villain. tailgate, a naive bot that needs to be liked, picks a baby. bumblebee picks a sassy hispanic lady, and so on.

soundwave picking a young woman/girl isn't completely out there but imo considering the nature of this game a better pick could have been made at the player's discretion, especially since the holo's purpose is to blend with the natives better. slap some cat ears on her or whatever and, yeah, still neckbeardy but a better fit because at least now she looks more like a prismal. or tbh just omit the avatar entirely.

you're going to be arguing personal tastes over this point though, so. shrugs.

it is absolutely not canon

but i haven't written with them, so i don't really know if they have bad writing in addition to bad taste

I'd say they're more boring than anything else?

I’m confused as to why that was let in with such an inappropriate and OOC appearance.

Re: +2

(Anonymous) 2019-06-04 01:01 am (UTC)(link)
because they're harmless. but if that player is wondering why it's so hard to get cr... it ain't because soundwave is a villain
