Is Friday for Sexident.

I still think the best closure you get in Armageddon is just moving on to the next character.

I try not to mudsex girls because I'm always afraid it's gonna be Is Friday.


You guys really give a hilariously inaccurate impression of me to people. I bet noobs in my clan be like "oh man I hope he doesn't try to mudsex me". Why would I mudsex when I still haven't tried all the neat torture methods on my list?

This makes it sound like you mudsex boys to avoid Is Friday.

That reminded me so much of Scissor Sisters.

Great. Same bunch of people nearly derailing a perfectly valid thread. What happened to our moderators?

Anyway, yeah. Habits die hard, and emoting them out in similar ways is fine. I am guilty of that, probably. If you're solo rping you are essentially emoting for yourself. Do whatever makes you imagination tingle. I know some people want flowery large emotes because they think they're impressive - I think the player is giving me homework to read sometimes..

I essence, don't listen to anyone in this thread nor myself. If you're not breaking any 'rules' and you're having fun then your roleplaying is perfectly acceptable, even with repeated small nods and clicks of your tongue or whatever.
Modern concepts of fair trials and justice are simply nonexistent in Zalanthas. If you are accused, you are guilty until someone important decides you might be useful. It doesn't really matter if you did it or not.

Hilariously inaccurate accounts of the player behind the character are an Arm benchmark, IF.

Some people, as in RL, do the same thing in the same way quite a lot. It sort of makes sense that you'd use the same or similar phrasing for those sorts of actions.

However, if you want to describe your nods as bobs, inclines, declines, positive shakes, dips, or whatever, go ahead. It's all good.  :)

Vennant doesn't appear to age because he serves drinks at the speed of light. Now you know why there's no delay on the buy code in the Gaj.

I use a lot of the same emotes, depending on the character, I don't focus on the detail of my ways of using the "say" command as much as I possibly should, instead focusing more on what's being said. I find dialogue to be preferable to describing movements and action, although I've been trying to pay more attention than I used to.
