Ok, so I was in BB recently and saw some really, really horrible RP that made me cringe. I felt like I was watching an episode of Phineas and Ferb... or Ed, Edd, and Eddy. Listening to fingernails drag down a chalk board would have been more pleasurable. I was about to point, click, screen-shot and shame when I started to wonder if I make some of the same glaring mistakes myself. o_O

I've started out on Coth with character personalities that I am not accustomed to playing. The whole Wow setting is new to me too, so much of this has left me feeling a bit unsure of myself as a player, and unsure of my characters.

So I'm asking for feedback - good and bad, constructive criticism, etc..

Do I suck? - if so, why and what could I improve on?

Do my characters seem to be out of setting or out of character to you? ( There are reasons why they do the odd things that they do - and they make sense to me.. but I want to know what *your* perception is )

Am I corny, unrealistic, unbelievable, too slow, inconsistent, too eccentric, too exaggerated, a freakin mary-sue?

Am I trying too hard to blend in? Or perhaps I come across as someone who does not try hard enough?

Heh heh ... Thanks xD
I've had the privilege of having a few characters interact with Randian, all under different circumstances. What I enjoy most about the character is how different these interactions can be while it still feels like I'm dealing with the same character. I've gotten to see fear, snobbishness, ambition, and a plethora of emotions all played in a very realistic way.

He is one of the best characters I've seen in a goblin town environment, because I always feel that within his mingling, even with other races, there is this growing sense of manipulation, which keeps the character in context with lore. OOCly I can see that he is not a sympathizer, just someone out to meet his own ends.

It's a pleasure to see the character grow, hopefully to something big! So my only critique would be hoping that you can create this same feeling when interacting with other players and characters.
No, you don't suck on any single charge and you should lash yourselves thirty times for even thinking that thought!!
