Hey everyone! Just something I've recently noticed that's beginning to affect a lot of people in ways that it shouldn't:
Judging.
Now, please don't get me wrong -- I'm not trying to signal anyone out here.
I am listing this as a concern. 'Cause it's affecting me now, too.
Once upon the time, the den was a much smaller place, with much smaller complications and much smaller restrictions. It was a simple-yet-complex place, where people roleplayed, and should there be a disruption, it was handled fairly easily; the person(s) with the confliction discussed it and worked it out in a way that they saw fit.
Even today, Crack Den remains a place where we're all connected in one enormous city plot. That means, somewhere along the lines, you might come across another someone, who will lead to someone else, and so on.
Now, I feel limited. I feel like there are people out there that are judging the Bloods and then I don't hear anything about it. So, I assume there is no problem. Why should I assume that an existing problem that has not been brought to my attention, exist?
I feel like nobody wants to roleplay with me as they might come in conflict with members in my group that they want nothing to do with.
I refuse to use names, but twice, I've had the same person pull a gun on the Bloods, one time in which I was there with them. Obviously we did not want to be shot -- and yet we hadn't done much other than loiter. In other words, we didn't do much at all to earn us a barrel in our direction. With the armed criminal position down, I do believe that none of my Blood have that privlidge(sp?) to pull a gun out their behind upon whim.
It affects my roleplay -- and I am not the only one.
I'd like to point out that many of my Bloods are very good roleplayers, perhaps better than myself. It is not fair to them. It is not fair to me.
However, I addressed this publically 'cause it is not just me. From my experience as a CD Roleplayer, I've had many people come talk to me about how they're outcasted by a group of people merely for not cooperating with one in that particular group.
Anyone feel that this is unfair at all?
I apologize if this is the wrong place for this. I'm really not out to smash my hammer into someone's skull...
...though I adore fighting scenes in roleplay.
*Grips her hammer tight.*

But yeah -- any opinions on this?
