I'm not sure I believe that you aren't an ERPer
Pretty much this.

Aren't all female toons in skimpy gear played by guys? I've always made that assumption lol Probably better off without that guild, but maybe they kicked you because your mog doesn't match?
11/07/2018 05:02 PMPosted by LucindiannaThere is a lot of stigma surrounding guys who play as female characters
Not really. I think it's more a you thing.
Bait thread is bait

There are plenty of real life women that like to wear skimpy gear. For them its more about feeling pretty or maybe just cause the mog happens to either look the best or fit their RP most.

wait, I need to do that irl. guess i'm the hypocrite then.
You. I like you.
I always play female toons as I figure, if im going to stare at the rear end of something for hours on end, its going to be pleasing. What I dont understand is guys who play guy toons..... but i digress... thats none of my business. =)
ok what's a ERPer. Second how is it bad. Not looking this up after the gnome dating site response.

Well. Thats because I am not staring at my characters rear the whole time. I usually pick male character since I want to look like something a bit more fierce of witty. Female characters for cuteness or sexiness usually.
Do people really do that?
Log into MMOs and create female characters for attention?

I don't care who you are or what you play. It's your choice given whatever reasons. Whether for gameplay, story, or just aesthestics.
People have got to understand that WoW is not the place for flirting or 'hitting it up'. Sure there are people who met through the game and got a relationship but that doesn't mean it's going to work for everyone OR that they're interested at all.
If it is something that bothers you, Grow Up. Who that person is on the other end and their lifestyle choices are none of your bussiness.
Play the game and have fun together while doing it. That's all that matters.

Okay so let me see if I get this straight so far. Lets do a bit of recapping.
1. You are through your own admittance a guy that boosted a female character.
2. On Moonguard.
3. Choose a really skimpy outfit and name.
4. Created a backstory in which you use sex as a weapon.
5. You say you aren't an ERPer yet YOU HAVE NO PANTS ON!
6. Guild finds out and then boots you because they think you are an erper and they know you are a dude.
7. You made a statement earlier that you only play female characters cause you say they look better.(I'm sure this has nothing to do with you being a dude irl).
8. And you still want to use the same backstory.
Come on! Any person with a brain can put the pieces together and see this for what it is. You love those staring at that beautiful feminine rear 99% of the time.

Do any real women actually hang out in gold shire anyway?

Recently I decided to boost this character so I could join my friends in MG for a bit of RP. There is a lot of stigma surrounding guys who play as female characters and I just so happen to be a guy irl who playing a female character alliance side on moon guard for RP purposes. I ran into a problem recently with my horde side raiding guild. When they found out about this character they accused me of being an ERPer. I was shamed in the discord and then booted from the guild. Now this character wasn't created for ERP purposes. The clothing style just fits in with the RP backstory of the character. She uses her seductive looks to distract potential enemies.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
My question
Now I want to know from other guys who play as female characters how often you've run into problems when people find out that you are a guy playing a female character. Same goes with people who play on Moonguard; Especially those in skimpy mogs? How likely is this to be a problem for me in the future?
Ok so much to talk about. So.
1) First and foremost I m sorry the way they treated you. It was really unecessary.
2) There s nothing wrong with being an ERPyer unless you re doing it in public chat or being disrespectful there s no reason anyone normal would care. It s the same principle as sex in real life. If both parties can and are consenting and you re not hurting anyone then it s your business only.
3) You should know people would get the wrong idea. You being a guy, rpying a sexualized female on Moonguard, so...get your thick skin on there cause this will not be the last time someone misjudges you.
4) What you can do is find a more accepting guild. Cause seriously. If a guild has that "No erp here" rule chances are I m not gonna join. Not cause I m a huuuge erpyer but because I know that if a gm wants to control what I do in my privacy chances are they will be the first ones pointing fingers at me trying to dictate how my character should act or think or dress or behave, I had enough bad experiences with guilds lile that to see this pattern.

I mostly tend to confuse people to be honest.
I'm female to male trans. So when people go "wait you're a dude?" I kinda feel like "It's complicated". It's hard to go "Yup" when I still sound female online in stuff like voice chat. Even then I'm aware not everyone is gonna seeing me as male anyway given the "controversy" that is "my lifestyle". Sorry for all the air quotes.
I just can't bring myself to change my character male just because I came out as Trans years ago. When I made her I was in the closet and tried to play girls. Yeah i was DEEP in denial.

Well I must confess(though many figured it out already). I actually did create this character for ERP purposes. What I can say? Being able enjoy beautiful booty while playing he game makes it so much more enjoyable. Least I am trying to take it to a much better quality level than most ERPers though. Gotta admit this makes a pretty nice skimpy mog for one.
And gold shire moon guard is actually pretty fun. Its quite an enjoyable party out there frankly. You don't have to ERP out there to enjoy it. Many people go out there and don't ERP, but other forms of RP.

The only problem i ever had (and have had many many times over the years unfortunately) playing as a female character is guys hitting on me. Even when i tell them i am a dude and my first name irl...they still ask stupid questions like "are you still up for ERP" and things like that, like how do you even get to that point in life where you need ERP in WoW in the first place?
11/07/2018 08:49 PMPosted by Lucindianna11/07/2018 08:43 PMPosted by GwenchanMy wife hated that my character is a girl wearing !@#$ mogs. I didn't get what the big deal was till she got an account cuz of pandas and made a buff human male priest as her toon....
With relationships thats were things can get extra complicated. Its like this. If you play wow with someone. I guess it kinda ruins your immersion if your so is playing a character the opposite of the gender that you are attracted to them of irl. Thats something that'd need to be worked out between couples though.
I really don't think it's all that relevant, honestly.
Yes, some people make a big deal out of it. No, it's not actually a big deal. Yes, it's all in their heads, just like many issues people come up with.
I play a female gnome mage, and my spouse isn't attracted to women (or gnome mages). Or any other females. Just rolls with it because "who cares?"
I'm not sure why it would matter if your toon is the opposite of your real life gender, or the gender your significant other is attracted to. Unless you're ERPing in game, or RPing in general, your characters bits matching your bits shouldn't have any legitimate impact.
I mean, in practice, the only response I'd give my spouse if they complained was "so... you want to be attracted to my avatar in game, as well?" If the answer was yes, I'd say grow up. If the answer was no, I'd say that they're being nitpicky and they need to grow up.

I usually choose the race and sex of my character based on the personality I 'perceive' it to have. A gnome mage really fits with the character I wanted to make, and a female just 'felt right' for that matchup to me. Whereas my paladin is a male draenei, because that felt more thematic and 'like a juggernaut'.
That said, I don't particularly associate female characters with 'sexiness' (or male characters), nor do I associate male characters with "fierceness" (or female characters). None of the wow models are really 'sexy' or 'fierce' in a way that I'd appreciate enough to make it a reason for making it.
Jerks will be jerks.
Try to find a guild that isn't full of jerks. Good luck with that.
Stop. Skimpy clothing and/or being from MG doesn't mean people do ERP.
