[@girl1213]

This is what we call desperation my dude. It's normal to think about sex/relationships, but hypersexual behavior is a problem due to compulsiveness. Many people use it as a way to deal with loneliness, depression, anxiety and/or stress, making it an unhealthy escape mechanism, similar to alcohol, gambling, drugs, smoking and other unhealthy behaviors. Basically: they're not looking for any relationship, they just want to "kill" the bad stuff going around in their heads, so they don't have to deal with it. You, on the other hand, were looking for a relationship because you've had a long-term friendship with your best friend and wanted to see if it can go beyond the friend zone because that seemed like the next step. You found out "no" we're good where we were before, and there forth kept what you really wanted: your relationship with your best friend. People like this? Yeah, they're desperate for an escape, not a relationship.

About 15 years ago I developed a slight crush on one of my friends. One day I told him, he said he wasn't interested, and I let the crush pass from my mind since I knew nothing would come from it. We stayed friends and he eventually became my best friend and the brother I've always wanted. I honestly don't know what I would do without him and he feels the same. Also knowing him better now any romantic relationship definitely would have crashed and burned and then I would have maybe lost someone I've come to care for so much. I'm so glad he turned me down. My parents on the other hand have pushed for us to date all this time because they adore him too and it wasn't until him literally getting married this year for them to finally stop. Ick.

[@nicolebacon2747]

I (AFAB) became best friends with a guy when I was 5, until around high school when we went to different schools and kind of lost touch. I remember getting teased about it by my grandparents when they found out (although I think it only happened once. They're very supportive of LGBTQ+ and racial issues compared to a lot of older adults). During the pandemic I went through some stuff I had from elementary school and I came across a letter (probably a Christmas card or something) from my grade 1 teacher in which she asked my parents when our wedding would be.

In all honesty and my opinion, using asterisks isn't that bad if you are into actually roleplays with a story or something. And if the person you're texting with is hundred precent okay and will also roleplay with you. People just going in without warning and using asterisks just make actually good roleplayers look bad :(

[@brambleheart]

Yeah, I use them in warriors role plays. But these are just creepy and often one sided.

[@JonathanMandrake]

Yeah, the real problem is the creeps just sexualizing strangers. I don't care about how you sexualize me, see me as a f-ing person. Ask me on a date or learn a bit about me before you just start with the sexual stuff. Even for a ONS, why would I trust a random internet stranger without having talked to them a bit first? What's even worse is the dudes in their 30s or 40s hitting up 20 year old girls, esp if they are ugly. Or guys who are unable/unwilling to read my profile. It's just this wild combination of red flags every of these freaks waves around

[@akitokutikabanae7010]

OF COURSE if that's done in a consented context there is absolutely no problem. RP is a good thing. But not with absolute strangers who you never talked to before, and by playing yourself (and them)...

[@Lia_hier]

Every consensual roleplay (group) chat uses them because it works out extremely well but the consent is the important part here

[@moritzlinden7169]

It depends very much on where and how you use them. In roleplay, sure. Out of roleplay, they can be useful to add some cues that would otherwise be lost in an online conversation. But if you use asterisks to communicate thinks that you wouldn't purposefully communicate in a real life conversation, you are roleplaying. And that doesn't work without consent. And even in roleplay, describing your own actions as "attractively" and such is the wrong approach because you would be deciding other players' reaction and you can't do that.

as a furr, i can tell the the comunity despise those cringy peeps. they are the bad apple everyone notice, and because of em, we are badly seen, but i can assure you these are only a minority, and that the furry fandom isnt that crazy.

[@MELmel_133]

The thing is, there’s a good amount of furries (I being one of them) that would never ever do this sort of thing. It’s sad that these people are defining the community and that most non-furries only see a small, crappy/cringe part of the full picture when really, most of us are totally harmless, chill, and haters of this sort of thing just as much as everyone else. But alas, people will generalize us and think all furries are like this when really they’re not... But yeah I’m not the first reply to point this out and prolly not the last and uh sorry for ranting btw

[@riverstyx7251]

Blame iFunny and 4chan. My local high school’s furry clique was just incredibly creepy like this, and coincidentally they all were on *that* side of the internet. Personally it’s the only way I can rationalize why one of the boys from that clique thought following me around in school and taking every chance to get me alone long *after* I rejected him was a good idea. “Be persistent” is what the incels say right? Maybe when the IT furries are done doxxing anti-trans states they can take down iFunny and 4chan next. I still can’t believe the furry community is just out there doing that lol y’all are awesome

26:30 The person who just derailed the likely unsolicited and completely out of the blue roleplay is legendary. "It's not my fault you thought you lived in this IKEA" is such a great line.

[@zapheil]

Major rules for roleplaying: - Don’t write anything about the other person’s actions/reactions. That’s called godmoding and it immediately un-immerses the other person/people. - Don’t write something like “*grabs you*” - you’re denying the other person any option but to be grabbed. Phrase it like “*goes to grab you*” or “*reaches out to grab you*” or something along those lines. That allows the other person to decide if they allow the action to happen unimpeded or if they do something in reaction first. - Especially don’t do multiple actions in one post. This also doesn’t allow the other person/people to react to anything you’re doing before you’ve gone onto the next action, and feels very unfair. - If doing an instant message based RP like in most of these posts, limit each post to ~5 seconds of talking at most. If you have more to say than that, either space it out through multiple posts or at least let the other person/people know through OOC (out-of-character) that you’re about to post something long. Sometimes it’s ok to post something longer because it makes it easier for you to organize your thoughts and say what you actually want to say, but it does also limit immersion for others, so accept that they may say that they (or their character) would have interrupted at a certain point, not allowing the rest to be said, and thus having to retcon it. - Don’t mention anything physical about other people/characters unless they themselves have already mentioned it or have confirmed its veracity through OOC. That includes both physical appearance and physical actions/reactions. - Speaking of OOC, it’s always good (in my opinion) to have a dedicated way of displaying when you’re speaking OOC vs when you’re speaking IC (in-character). I would always put my OOC in double parentheses, ((like this)). Other people in my rp group had their own ways of doing it, such as (single parentheses) or [brackets], but it was always consistent and thus clear for each person. I’ve heard of some people having separate chats for OOC, too. For long-term roleplays especially, having OOC conversations amidst the roleplay can be a very valuable tool for making sure everybody is ok with what is going on, for establishing a setting, for suggesting plot points, for saying “hey how about we try steering it down this route, I have an idea,” and for other such things. For the record, these rules apply not only to things like text-based RP, but things like D&D too. As a DM, if a player ever says they do something to another player (such as trying to block them from leaving a room or trying to grab an item from them), I immediately ask that other player if they allow the action or if they try to counter it. It’s always important to give everybody agency in roleplaying of any kind. That’s how you build immersion.
