tbh the reason everyone hates femchars is because barely anyone knows how to play one properly and so it just seems like "all femchar bad" and not "all malechars bad" because the latter is easier than the former to play as a character

Idk how well the characters are on helix but I'm sure there are acceptable femchars at least

a person acts like a person for the most part, if you feel like you're 'confused' just rp being you as a femchar for a bit until you get your own tropes set

i personally don’t mind female characters they’re quite essential to the server

what i do mind is that when half of them literally:
  • use overly young character reference pictures, makeup and other bullshit that’s just a cringe teenager dream
  • act like a very young character for the purpose of appearing “cute” or “innocent :3 hihi hehe”
  • both of those above combined
this is why we maintain a tight grip on the seriousness of cop characters and same should be enforced on the server, change my mind

Do you also agree that roleplaying a stutter doesn't make your character cute?

it's fine to a certain degree - after a traumatic event, an injury, whatever

there's only been a handful of characters i've rp'd with that didn't fall under the whole stutter ':3' bs tbh, @not tiger is a great example

i honestly just think it comes with the fact that 13-17 year old males do not know how to rp a female correctly, honestly.

with exceptions of course, but for the most part, not really.

it still looks retarded and you're way better off putting 'stutters' at the start of your physical description that shows up in chat

nah not a cute stutter

i mean a literal "takes 10 seconds to say a word starting with S" stutter like Drew Lynch

i guess that's fine? as long as it's conveyed realistically in a text form, on the other hand it's hard to take it seriously with female characters though

i feel like stutters aren't something you can fully comprehend through text, it's more of a speech impediment, it's not typically written without weird formatting to be understood, it just kinda feels weird.

considering one of my characters is like this because of their background, its overly difficult to not overstep a boundary in how i express the character

women in roleplay are killed less
women in roleplay are searched less
women in roleplay have smaller hitboxes
women in roleplay get more free shit

there's a lot more innate privileges to roleplaying a female character, whether its interactions with rebels, CPs, CAB, or anything.

personally i've never communicated with a woman that wasn't my own 'mother' so i'm not really sure how to rp those interactions, hence why i play a male char exclusively
