Every RPer I encountered when I played this game was extremely weird. My IRL friends started on a RP server in Vanilla, sadly it was the one they got me to start on also.

I don't care what you do but if you think you're considered a grown man while roleplaying on a video game then you really need to reevaluate your life.


Anecdotal evidence followed by absolutist statement.

What exactly is it about being silly and playing pretend that stops you from having a successful job, life partner, intelligent children, or lavish material goods?

As adults we tend to measure being a "grown up" by actual benchmarks of success, gainful employments and successful family bonds for the most part, not how you get your kicks once the kids go to bed. Perhaps you haven't met enough benchmarks to transition from the teenage mentality that hobbies and personal quirks are more important than your accomplishments, im sure in a few years you'll drop the act and stop acting elitist and realize preference and difference is a thing. But maybe not, some people just never seem to grow up no matter how old the get.

If /kissing and talking in /e to your little friends makes you happy then go do it. I'm sure your parents are proud that they raised such a beta male.

PS: I haven't read one full response, I know you're one of those PARD dudes who likes to argue about current events.

too lazy to read one paragraph, brags about being a grown up.

pick one.

"/kissing"... you know misconstruing something in order to make an argument is a pretty childish behavior, perhaps you shouldn't brag about being grown quite yet.

I'm a kid at heart, what can I say?
I was joking, I read your paragraph.
I'm not grown up but I also am not a kid anymore.

Like I said, continue being a beta male.

Translation: I run from arguments and deflect with random buzzwords when I realize I don't have a leg to stand on.


its fun to see children run around calling each other names, but its really not helping your argument. At least you admit to not being a grown up, that's a start. I mean it doesn't make your argument, but it does make sense now why you're acting so childish.

roleplaying =/= /kissing

roleplayers =/= all wierd

feel free to argue either of these points with something other than anecdotal horseshit, or you could stop asserting them. Either one. Or you can continue looking like the kid who's mad that other people enjoy things that don't effect him to the point that he needs to join the conversation of a game he doesnt play just to tell everyone they also shouldnt play it, or at least to play it the way he played it when he played it before he stopped playing it. That's certainly a good use of your time.

All I said to begin with was RPing is for queers, followed by directing the OP to Moonguard.

I obviously struck a nerve.
Looks like my plan worked.
Got all the betas worked up.

Show me where I denied saying anything?
I'll just sum up what I said.
RPing is for queers, betas, losers.

Role playing isn't necessarily hugging and kissing. I've been on servers where role playing involves; questing from level 1( to the lore), pvping with certain transmogs and line ups, the list goes on.

I don't understand why people get so worked up about how others enjoy their free time. Worry about your own life and people you surround yourself with, not strangers on the Internet.

Try playing the role of real life, that's usually the best case of role playing.
