Lately more problems than anything else have been cropping up around Dri and myself, and I've seriously begun thinking about just suiciding him in a thread and sticking around long enough to make sure his daughters get to good sires before giving up on rp all together. I suppose this thread is just more asking opinions and ideas than anything else, lately, and now more than ever, what with.. recent events, I have been seriously doubting my decisions to continue, and plotting different ways to kill off the character I've built over the course of the two years he's been in-city

i wouldnt 'kill off' the character you worked so hard on. instead, put the charrie to sleep...a long sleep....fall into deep shadows and step away for a bit. you may just need a little distance from the game and want to come back...i've seen it happen time and time again.

The problem there is, I always come back too soon, Dri is Dri, he's taken on a life of his own and it's gotten to the point where I pretty much just write for him, I don't mind that at all, but when people start taking it out on me OOC, then I just don't see it as worth it. Eh, for now I'll let you guys post, and see what your opinions are on the subject, then I'll think on it and make my eventual decision

i can understand that, after playing for over 6 years, i've wanted to kill nems off a time or two...but i just step back and ignore ooc nonsense. whatever you decide, its gotta be right for you, no matter what anyone says. ~nods~ i just hate to see anyone go..

Alright hon, there are times when people will take things out on you (trust me I know it from first hand and my actions in ooc things being taken to ic) all you can do is make sure ahead of time before someone talks to you who you think may be taken it out on you the human that if they want to "bitch" at you for something your character did, then they need to do it IC and make sure they're not crossing because "you" aren't the character, "you're" the player and the player and character aren't the same person.
I know it can be hard I've had people who I refused to talk to because they wanted to yell at me for something my character thought about their character, and go so far as to demand my home number to snap at me for Chiru. Just make sure that you keep things in track and that YOU aren't the one crossing. If you feel overwhelmed take a step back, say "ic only" or something along those lines. I would hate to see Dri leave but do what you need to do hon.

0.o Well, this is something new at least, apparently due to developments IC, my dear Dri is in the same state emotionally as the victim of a vicious attack or rape, so in future threads, expect him to be anxious, flighty, jumpy, etc, but- I hope- tis only temporary
