Title: I just had an idea
Post by: Arrow on October 16, 2010, 06:31:31 AM
Inspired by the costume month.

And shit like this.

Imagine a forum where you could only register as a character from something like a game or movie. You have to play the part as best you can and interact with the others as close to the way your character would as possible.

I think some really fucking funny shit could happen. The Joker shit talks to the riddler. Kirby can't type with his nubby flippers. The Terminator gets on everyone's nerves because he always posts the same topic, and the T-2 keeps trying to pose as everyone else/keeps getting banned/keeps ban evading.

Anyone else think this is a good idea?

Sorry, man. I don't think this is very funny. There are way too many anime people on this forum, so I can only imagine what would happen in a forum like you're suggesting.

That's a damn good point...

Unless they were penned into their own little arena?

I think the problem is there's too few characters, and if the site actually picked up you'd have people complaining that names were taken already.

Too few characters? You'd be able to pick one from pretty much any game, movie, book, anime, or whatever, right? That's a lot of potential characters.


I think it sounds like a neat idea, sorta like one big multiverse roleplay. I'd do it.

So to streamline it: Have sections for American and Japanese character sets, as well as a general set allowing everyone. This would be in an overarching roleplay segment. Beneath it, there's a discussion segment where you can talk as much as you like in or out of character. Anyone can post in the discussion segment, but there's an approval process for the in character segment. That way, no one 'who talk lik dis' can claim the name of Long John Baldry, and no one can take on a character they simply aren't cut out for / we can recast characters.

I'm pretty sure there ARE places like that. Seen at least one chatroom that had a set up like that.

and then the flame wars would start because Goku and Vegita and Yagami Light and L were already taken.
