That moment when the heads of an OC RP group are elitist/hard to please.

That's when I make a character who looks super serious, but is, in fact, the cheesiest motherfucker of all time.
"why yes, I did stat him in a way that he actually has an ability to talk a sword out of hitting him. Not the enemy holding the sword, the actual fucking sword."

[Ironmonger]

What grinds my gears is that, before, I was getting made fun for making a lot of characters who were underdeveloped. Now, I'm getting made fun of for making one character that's overdeveloped? Fucking really, people? I mean, I know he's strange, but that doesn't mean bad.

It's just...eugh, I know this is going to end badly for me somehow.

Some people are dipshits. If your backstory isn't EXACLTY 500-600 words, you fucked up.

I popped into their chat on Cloudsdale to see what was being said, and the exact thing I found when my character was brought up was that "a character should revolve around one thing". Fuck. That. I'm not gonna crank out some half-assed character because it's simple. There's no fun in having a character like that around.

I can't wrap my head around that... You're character was so charismatic he/she breathed life into inanimate objects to charm them?

Yeah. There's a way in one of the DnD editions that if you double-class in monk and bard, you can convince fists, swords, arrows, etc. not to hit you.

character...revolve...one thing...

That's exactly how I feel. If I want a character like that, or one that's simple in general, I'd play a video game. However, I'm talking about a fucking RP group. The situation is that I crammed too much stuff into one character for their taste, and they don't like the idea that he's a big unicorn. Though, he's not Cast Iron big.

Honestly, I wouldn't care about their opinions at all if it weren't for the fact that these are the damn mods talking. There's the off chance that I'll be screwed over because they don't like something.

[CamoBadger]

Wait, aren't these the guys with the edgiest of edgy mary sue characters ever?

Here's their group. I don't know much about these guys other than that the head admin is dickhead.

EDIT: The "Combat Admin" guy. The other head is pretty cool.

So, I found the character sheet thread.
That first admin character...holy fuck I can't even describe the "what the fuck" I feel.
-always wears a hat and a cloak, is never ever EVER seen without them
-cloak is fireproof and acid-proof for some ungodly reason
-carries random things just in case he needs them
-is an expert thief, survivalist and alchemist
-physically very weak, uses his equipment to do everything he needs to do
SURVIVALIST, REQUIRES FUCKING TOOLS TO SURVIVE
-Daring Do's old partner (seriously? Make a rule saying no mary sue, make your OC a canon character's best friend?)
-his other character is supermysterious, except that she's older than CELESTIA
Then I stopped. This group is obviously horseshit because they say a complex character sucks, and their characters hurt my soul to know they exist and someone thinks they're cool.

[Ironmonger]

Here's the character that I posted. I based him loosely on Peter Steele from Type O-Negative. About the thing of him being "powerfully built", that honestly just means he's strong. He'd win a bar brawl, but anyone with the right training would make short work of him. He's a guitarist, not a fighter.

I honestly don't understand how that group thinks.

you wanna know what's fun? Rolling a character class almost completely random and ending up with Tony Stark and trying desperately to make him not be Tony Stark.

...What the hell kind of game were you playing? That sounds like a game to play with your buddies while drunk.

I'm pretty sure if I submitted any of my characters, they would have a stroke. 
Not even the FoE ones, I would do my first one, and they would say "mary sue, can't be here, not based on one trait"

Mutants and Masterminds.

Basically DnD with superheroes.

Based on what you're saying here I'm not sure why you would wanna play with those guys.

That group worries me, because if my character gets rejected based on their "issues", that means that the character admin doesn't really know what they're doing. Afterwards, I'll essentially have to guess what they will approve, because they use a different sort of logic than I do.

That actually sounds kinda fun in its own demented way. I'm personally not very big on superheroes, but there's a few that I'd consider gems.

@Last

I have two reasons at the moment. One, finding an RP group seems to be kinda difficult, and there is the chance that the next group that I find will be even more difficult. Two, even though I'm thoroughly aggravated by their antics, I'm not gonna let that make me see them as bad people to play with. I'm gonna give them a legit chance.

I'm actually one of the head admins of a low-key RP group, but most of the members are either lurkers, or have migrated over to the OC Roleplay.

EDIT: I just realized that's actually three reasons. My mind is a little scattered at the moment.

[Moodyman90]

The fact that the Celestia picture under that post was the one where she's raising her eyebrows suggestively made that even better.

Also, Taco Bell, trying to get you hitched or ruin your relationship trying haha.

I think you'd like it. Among the many things that have happened my character broke a sphinx's heart, Orm's character accidentally used a tornado to throw a house at my character, my character got seduced by a half succubus (which lead to the aforementioned heartbreaking), my character was also seduced by a villain and nearly killed by said villain (in his defense she was both cat themed and wore a skin tight catsuit), and XT's character was seduced by another player character while they were visiting his moon base.
