~Non Sequitur~ said: Almost all of them were good roleplayers
Just because they're good rpers doesn't mean they can't be toxic. I get there's a need for diversity among characters but honestly, just leave people the hell alone. It's okay to put your views on it out there, but you shouldn't be pressuring them I also think there needs to be more diversity. I look at my all-white human character things and feel self-concious, even if it doesn't have anything to do with me being racist. It's just that I'm a white female and so I make characters that are apart of my race, but I don't disagree that I should be more multi-cultural. I also hate wolf-dog characters with a passion, but I don't hate on people who like/have those OC's. I hate when people have characters who are good at everything while also managing to be perfect in any way, so I try and balance my characters. But do you see me putting them down? Hell no I don't give a shit about how literate you are if you're out here making people second guess every rp decsions they make and suck the fun out of it. That was NEVER what rping was about.

I agree with Glace totally on this Sequin. The reason my characters are all white is because I am. I wouldn't know how to play any other culture because I don't know them that well. And if I were to play them, the same people would probably end up coming after me for "misrepresenting." So just stick with what you know.

Okay, I do have that fear of misinterpretation too >.< I'm afraid to make a character from another race and make a mistake and get called out. I know you can research but it isn't the same as having that experience. Although, there is a black character I kinda want to make cause he seems badass. Like I PROMISE I'm not trying to whitewash I've just always bee afraid of making an asian/mexican character and be bad. Literally the only asian character I have is a fucking dog and I don't even thing that can be considered >.< Edited at August 30, 2020 06:05 PM by Glaciers Voice

Honestly I didn't realize they were toxic until now, which us bad. I guess cringe club should give me a hint and what they did in their spare WP time. It was a little oblivious of me because I'm not white but it didn't really occur to me to make a non white character. I'm pretty sure I had done a few before the club. I just did whatever I felt like doing. I guess I like doing white because they have more interesting appearances. The other races you can describe them pretty similar.

I've really only encountered Caucasian, African Americans, and Asians. I would have no clue how to roleplay another race, so I don't because I don't want to misrepresent.

Sorry my post took so long Ghosty. It's been a busy day >.< Hope you liked it, I've never played Margo before. And yes, my fear is misinterpreting is a big one. I'm white so I feel like if I play another race wrong, it'll sbe painfully obvious that I'm a white person and it'll seem like I'm just another racist pig.

It's really good! No worries! You played a mother figure absolutely amazing! And ya, that's my big fear as well. It terrifies me because people can be so jumpy and just assume you are homophobic or racist if you aren't like them or mess up a character wrong simply because you aren't them. It's a tough spot to be put in. And I do think I will give Nadya to Theo. I can age her up for this rp so we don't have an 18 year old with a 34 year old. ;)
