[IG] 9 - Offensive roleplay

Post by Dec » Fri Feb 15, 2013 12:01 pm

Use this thread to post any sensible questions, comments, suggestions or ideas about this rule. We will endeavour to clarify anything which you may be uncertain about.


9. Roleplay that can cause offense to those around you, including sexual harassment and forcing any of the below types of roleplay onto someone without an OOC agreement between both sides is strictly NOT allowed.
    Unless prior OOC agreement is given by all parties involved, the following is strictly forbidden on this server:
    • Rape
    • Pedophilia
    • Bestiality
    • Necrophilia
    • Sexual harassment (forcing any type of sexual roleplay onto another person or touching their characters inappropriately)

    If prior OOC permission is given by all parties involved, the roleplay must happen away from anybody else where it will not be visible to others and also will not potentially be interupted by others accidently. Subjecting others to see this type of roleplay by roleplaying in an area where you are likely to be seen is included in this rule.
    Punishments:
    • Permanent Ban

So what about in a torture scenario, is one allowed to somewhat damage/kick the anal region or the crotch of one person. I believe it makes for much more realistic roleplay than just the whole /me swings his hammer onto your kneecap. And it's not anything that offensive really, /me looks towards Daniel with a wide smile on his face as he then deals a number of kicks towards his exposed crotch.

You should ask prior to engaging in any activities that involve private body parts, as your actions may offend the other party.

I think sexual harassment shouldn't have anything to do with torturing someone by doing painful stuff to their private parts.. As Daisuke said.

A boot to the groin is different than a grab and a twist. I'm pretty sure it's all about best judgement. And about your torture scenario, if the roleplayer is worth the time to do torture roleplay with, they're gonna' consent to most things that'll happen to their character. Usually it's better to err on the side of caution when on these sensitive topics.

As for torture or just sick violence, ask beforehand if you want to ensure they'll be alright with it. Although it's never been stated on an official rule I've always had it as a personal rule just in-case the person doesn't go well with reading and maybe imagining the sick violence or torture (such as biting their ear off or torturing them with cutting, and that). Just be friendly.

Exactly, this. Some people can find it offensive to read text of being cut with chainsaw, getting raped and brutally battered in private areas, and so.

I think you should just ask permission at all costs even if it's something light , just incase someone gets offended, I don't see what's wrong with PMing someone for permission, it just saves someone getting offended if all goes wrong.

What if one just says, "Man, I'd rape the shit out of you," or something similar without OOC permission first? This can cause offense (as it offends me OOCly), but it doesn't involve touching.

It something is making you feel uncomfortable OOCly, then let the other person know. There is no need to throw a hissy fit or shout "Reported!!" cause that just makes it worse. Just PM or /b mention that you're finding it uncomfortable and you'd like him/her to stop.

I agree with this rule, sometimes my younger brother (which understand English pretty good) watches me as I play LSRP, and I find it very uncomfortable when someone is '/me takes out his dick and pissing on everyone'.
If you want to RolePlay that, ask permissions from the other players around you, awsome rule.

I think the key to gaining any kind of permission is just to explain exactly what you plan to do. Not just the usual: "Permission to rape?". But I also don't believe pissing in public should require any kind of special permission - only if it's roleplayed very vulgarly - organs being mentioned and so on.

But that makes no sense then. In that case, we shouldn't even swear without other party's permission. It's your responsibility to not expose your brother or whoever you don't want to see it to the game, which contains visual drug/violence/offensive material.

This game (GTA SA) was made for a crowd above eighteen years old, if you don't want to see any sexual references or role-play then don't play this game. I find this rule unnecessary.

And so is almost every other game but that doesn't stop the average 12 year old tugging their mothers purse to buy it them in the supermarket. I'm sure that nobody here has done that but what is to stop a game getting into the wrong hands or simply just ignoring that big red sticker.
It's not what the game is for and if you can't get engaged without having to involve sexually orientated acts into your gaming then this isn't the game for you.
