I'm convinced the GS consumer base over-indexes in mental illness. In truth, that is a big part of how Simu makes money.

451 posts for this thread alone proves that.

You know what... I once thought Gemstone offered the oportunity to roleplay any character you want and be accepted for it but I discovered it to be false. I cant be my own Guts or Geralt in this game and be respected and feared like them. I cant be my own Witcher no matter how I tried because of this community. I dont know...

Here comes this bullshit again. Then later on he'll say he wishes this thread would die.

You can be pretty much whatever you want in this game, within reason, i.e. you can't RP someone from Krypton and expect people to not shit all over it.

The catch is you have to be creative enough to do it in a non-disruptive manner that's still believable.

Setzier was a good old school example of how to RP a dick without being disruptive.

If you go stomping into a room swinging your dick around declaring your awesomeness to the masses about how you should be feared and respected, that's the best way to make the opposite happen.

Is there a log for this round?

Hlendril man, you're not helping yourself any. If anything, you're just making it worse on yourself. A lot of people here and elsewhere it seems have legitimately tried to help you and you don't seem to be understanding the root cause.

Here's the last piece of advice I'm going to give you before giving up:

People get preconceived notions about stuff once they know your name. They'll even go out of the way to try to find out who your alts are so they can treat them the way they've determined to treat you regardless of their interactions with those characters in game. They'll treat you the same on your main whether or not you alter how you're interacting with them at this point.

So my advice is: change your name. Start a new character. Don't tell anyone the name. Temper your RP with some more subtlety and less abrasiveness. Give yourself a fresh start where people don't walk up to you in character and ask you to tell them dad jokes. Seriously. That was an annoying issue for me that happened at least three times a week. Let me re-iterate, because this part is equally as important as developing new RP - Do not tell anyone your name, friends included. Be friends with them still if you want. RP with them with your new character. Do not reveal your alts.

Or sell your character and then buy it back a week later.
