My Age of the Renegade Promo for Rick Tees is also bound to raise a few eye brows among people with conservative views. But let me say where I’m from (The New york city area.)There are far stranger things then seeing a leather clad bi-sexual woman walking down the street with a bullwhip. Some may think differently if they come from more conservative places in the world. Also the content as it relates to the stories told by this woman to Rick may seem taboo to some. However are fairly common occurrence either in general or behind the closed doors of someone’s bedroom. One is a perfectly natural occurrence anyway just with some assistance, and the other is a mundane Medical procedure that many perform several times a day. Its just both seem to become erotic when a persons lover becomes involved in assisting with the act, something I don't get personally.
Jon Tees.

uh-huh. If your purpose in NAPW is to challenge all the rules and our 'conservative' beliefs (which are likely mine), perhaps that's not a good deal.
any event. PG-13, there are kids here. What people do in their bedrooms is their own business. You seem quite bent on 'raising a few eyebrows'. Are you here to e-wrestle or 'raise eyebrows?'

This is actually an edited role play imagine, had if I would’ve printed the piece in its entirety actually showing a scene in which Rick Tees learns how with the help of Whitney to milk a female human breast extracting milk from a submissive female slave. But being there are kids here, I had to do some severe editing down to maybe something that could be considered R rated. But in fairness I will tone it down somewhat in the future as younger people are here now.I did place a warning at the top that the content may not be appropriate for everyone in my defense.

You've a PM with more information. But uh... you don't seriously think a 'warning' is going to prevent people from reading it?
Ultimately, and for everybody in NAPW, the rules are what they are. If you sign up with NAPW you are obligated to respect them and follow them, and I have all rights to enforce them. The rules clearly state that this fed is PG-13. This is not the place to have a discussion of whether full-frontal nudity 'ought to be PG-13'. I ask people to use their discretion and err on the side of caution. I'm not interested in shock value. I'm not interested in boundary pushing. I'm very much not interested in wrestlers who do not read or pay attention to the rules. They are designed to make NAPW a functional e-fed and an environment where people of all ages can play.

So here is the thing. Am I offended by the topic of the roleplay? Not really. Do I think it was edgy and pushed the envelope? No. If you raised any eyebrows in that, it was in the school-marm looking over a mediocre piece of writing sense. Here, in three words, each phrased as a separate sentence, is my biggest problem with everything that you have written so far that had anything to do with sex.
Trying.
Too.
Hard.
Honestly, some of this stuff sounds like a 13 year old trying to get into Penthouse Forum. I more than halfway expect Rick Tees to start the promo with "I can't believe this happened to me, but..." From what I have seen in the roleplays that do not deal with any kind of sex, Rick Tees is supposed to be your crazy badass character. All well and good. It does not help this image when it sounds like he is a kid about to pop his first wad alongside his first zit:
Rick Tees” Wow! That sounds hot you’ll have to allow me to watch sometime”
That does not sound like the hardened, aside from in the anatomical sense, wrestler I think you want to bring across. Unless a side note of his character is that he is also a giant nerdy virgin outside of the ring. In which case, bravo! Not only that, but the lines for Whitney are dry as a bone, no pun intended. You would get much more in the way of sex appeal if there was more implied and less... you know... listed. I was more intrigued by Static's grocery list than I was the step-by-step list of what Whitney loves to do to ladies. I don't want to say you should limit yourself in your roleplays to what you're already good at, but I would consider steering away from sex based stuff for now and maybe focusing on his intensity. Your character doesn't have enough build-up in that direction to ignore how he sounds in this kind of stuff.

i have to admit, my grocery list is pretty interesting.
seriously though, i agree with stein. while i'm not too keen on what women with bullwhips talk about, i'm not sure that they're as... blunt? as your rp put forth. it just sounds like boring porn talk.
think about triple h for a second, cos i think you're trying to get across a little game-uh in your rps. let's say they had explicit sex on wwe. would hhh sound like rick tees? i don't think he would.

more than interesting, it reminded me of a few things I had to pick up at the market myself!

As one who runs right up against that line too frequently...you crossed over it and thumbed your nose at all of us.
We have to adapt our styles and change a bit to fit the various feds we participate in. I've had to tone down my rps and adjust. We all do it.
And you going into detail about what you edited after the Pres told you that he is conservative is obnoxious and rude to him. Even if you don't agree with him, it wasn't cool at all.

Things have been settled via a Pm all I’ll say is I’m sorry if anyone was offended the rest of my stuff will be suitable for all viewers lets just say.

Trust me after reading Misery's pieces and Tommy Deathrow's first series of RP's no one here thats been around a few months will be "Shocked" or Raising there eyebrows at content. Both had to be adapt there style, Misery's character had to be let go of, and a new guy emerged: Chris Casino. Brion was kidnapping people or trying to if I remember. Diego can probably shed more light on his controversial content. As a new guy at the time, he PMed me to find out my opinions on the stuff. Brion got rid of that character and went with Casino who had a great run.
Tommy's stuff had to be curved quite a bit, and still does great rp's without breaking rules. We do have the censored word thing that used to not work all the time. But to make a long point short... Shock and awe should be done by merely a new style of writing "WE" haven't seen before, that doesn't end up being an updated version of HBO's Real Sex. You're not being singled out or censored more than others have, and in the case of Misery, he had new rules created by his rp's. Nothing offends me really, except blatant racism and religion bashing. With that said... Ryan is a great admin and know that we have people playing who are less than 18 years of age. Truth be told a kid's parents can get online read stuff and try to get stuff shut down. A slim possibility...but in a day and age where a lot of parents are starting to check more about what their kids do...you never know.
Whew... that's enough writing today... Let's go to work!!

While I wasn't offended (since I seem to share the sensibilites of some of the others here), I didn't really see a point of the whole deal, other than shock value.
And, like the others, I didn't really have much emotional attachment to it. Everyone in the promo seemed to be clinically detached, like they didn't have their own voice and some scientist was giving them their scripts.
I think in this fed, especially, most of the sex/sexual situations are all more of a wink and a tease.
Hell, people could argue that Kyle Roberts is one of the most lecherous, oversexed guys in the company, and all of his stuff deals with innuendos and leers. Anything else is behind closed doors.

What am I, your boy?The only Misery piece that I explicitly know was banned was a segment in which Misery "permitted" his underlings to rape a woman. I'd say that was Brion's second RP in this fed, and markedly different stuff than the material he's unleash with Chris Casino.
