Normally I don't post things here and prefer to spectate, but this little event is definitely worth of a BRPS post. Like many of the posts here, it concerns the Pern/DRoP fandom; big, sapient dragons who bond to humans and fight a biological terror that threatens their home, so on and so forth. The post itself concerns several former friends whom I

I'm still trying to figure out what "problematic" means in this context. Manipulative, maybe?

[ohhhlordy]

Manipulative as well as RPing problematic characters. I touch on some of their characters briefly under the cut.

Ah Pern. I love it? Like. I love it so much. nd have been considering trying to find a lil place to hunker down. Have like, one character and just RP that one character, so I can get my pern-love dealt with while not over exerting myself. But things like this make me hold back some? Which sucks. I mean, Metagaming isn't a unique thing. Neither is people getting upset about headcanons. But Pern-sites don't seem to handle it well, and I don't get why.

Yea, I love the -concept- of Pern but the people and the general tomfoolery that happens in the fandom? Yeeeeah, not so much. Metagaming isn't the end of the world but it's awfully bad rp etiquette, but... the rest? Classic Pern Fandom Awful.

I love pern so much?? And like this whole Mother/Daughter distrust could be SO cool??? It has so much awesome potential???

Is Mother/Daughter distrust a *thing* in Pern? Everything I know about Pern I learned from badrperssuck.

Oh man, can I get a link to this site? I love stalking wanky sites.

[lootchest]

Mind tossing one my way?

Ah, another bad Pern site to add to the collection. Lovely.

[technodeficient]

Actually, knowing what site this is now, I have to say that I am not surprised who it is. In a way I was waiting for something to pop out about them on here eventually.

[ohhhlordy]

Hope it was entertaining ;) It sure kept me laughing

[technodeficient]

That's one way to put it, that's for sure. Best of luck in finding another place if you're still open to Pern. Maybe look at the sites RPG-D has advertising in the DRoP fandom sub-forum?
