Quote from: Koltar;258439Well "J____T____" did join the group - playing a character that was originally based on her. She also started immediately always sitting near my GM spot as I ran the game...and a few thought she might have a 'crush' on the GM.

"Dear Penthouse Forum..."

!i!

Yeah - and screw you Ian, it was innocent.

It was mentioning that she sat next to you and that you thought she might have a crush on you.

You are seriously a very, very creepy dude Ed, and I really do think it's only a matter of time before you do something dangerous and criminal to a woman.  Probably an underage woman at that.

You totally remind me of this dude who went be the name "Kevlar" here in Seattle.  He used to run a Star Trek LARP group, a WoD LARP group, and a con security outfit called the Saberhawks.  Some long time Seattle gamers might know him.

He was also a fat, bearded socially maladjusted loser who was always taking a creepy interest in 15 year old girls in the gaming scene.

Jesus fuck, Jackalope.  That was really, really uncool.  No, no -- that was shitty.

I can't tell you what you can and can post.  I can't ban you.  But I can call you out on your shit, and I'm doing so.  That was a real asswipe thing to say, to anyone.

Okay, fine, it's a "real asswipe" thing to point out.  Doesn't mean it isn't a reasonable thing to think.  Ed has statutory rape waiting to happen written all over him.

Seriously man, he's clearly obsessed with young girls, constantly talking about them, constantly speculating about their interest in him, constantly fantasizing outloud about them.  It's so clear that he invites women to play with him because he's hoping ton "get some," but it's equally clear he's following a futile path.  Eventually the resentment, disappointment and obsession are going to come congeal into something really nasty.

I would, in all seriousness, never allow Ed to be alone with a mentally challenged teenage girl, as an example.  That would be a very dangerous situation.

Okay lads, stop picking on the Kilngon. You guys are just jealous that he lives the Boogie Nights lifestyle and you don't.....

I think Engine was being needlessly provocative, but literature does not have to be the only source of inspiration for these types of characters. Kids who kill for various reasons - ideological, psychological , professionally (soldiers etc) - are common in history and contemporary times. I don't see why one can't or should not transport these types of characters from their historical or contemporary context into a fictional narrative.

I have already mentiond the characters from my IHW campaign.

A fantasy example would be an old AD&D campaign I ran some time ago, that had the PCs beginning play as orphans. One of my players decided to base his character - a 13 year kid - on the Pe Ell character from The Druid of Shannara ( who started his "killer for hire" career, early).

This character was a cold blooded killer much like the character from the book and had a leveled much item which was extremely intelligent and acted as mentor then nemesis to this particular character. It's hard when all you want to be is the setting's "assassin number one" and your blade wants you to be a serial killer.

That's because from what I've seen, Jackalope is a bit of an asswipe.

I'm glad you have the qualifications to make this well-assessed statement.

Look, you know what?  I'm not gonna get into shit with you.  In fact,  have a better idea.  Hang on.

I did study criminal justice for four years in a university setting, and special victims crimes were my primary area of focus, so yeah...I actually do have the qualifications to make these sorts of statements.  I mean, how many college level courses about sex crimes have you taken?

I've taken none.  There you go -- you made your point.  Gold fucking star.  Now shut the fuck up please.

By the way, I've closed this thread because it went to crap.  If it turns out that it wasn't my place, then it'll be re-opened and I'll be OK with that.

I will only add the following: If someone really wants to open a new thread about underage pcs, though frankly I don't see the point, you are allowed to do so.

You are not allowed to de-evolve that thread into page after page of mudslinging.

And speaking of mudslinging, Jackalope, it is completely inappropriate for you to be hefting those kinds of personal accusations at Koltar. There are limits, even here, and the frequency and severity of the personal attacks you've made on Koltar borders on stalking.

You know that you and I tend to agree more than we disagree on most RPG-subjects.  Please don't make things escalate here.  Just stop saying shit like this, about Koltar. Its enough for you to say that you don't like him and you think he's a fuckhead. Next time you feel like saying what you said above, just say that instead, and we won't have a problem. Though frankly it might be wiser if you just ignored him.
