'The Randall Effect'

I will admit to the fact that I am lonely, and that it does not help when one tries to roleplay as a specific person or character that their name/avatar/name+avatar represents to me.

Maybe it is my fault for leading them on? I don't know, but one things for sure is that it pisses me off.
Now, this is what I enjoy calling 'The Randall Effect'. This is when the person roleplaying their fictional characters name starts off small talk and then it becomes a display of, after a week or two, "TOUCH ME PLEASE, VOLYR."

I thought it would get them to shut up, but they rely so heavily on this as a forum of entertainment that it keeps them coming back for more. I have no way of knowing if the Randall Effect works on them, because they're pretty much new friends to me.

Now I enjoy talking to my friends, I really do, but I do not like cyber action, touching, etc. (Unless it involves Patchouli)

Please stop doing this sort of stuff with me. You know who you are.

  1. Geez. Sorry you hear you're in that sort of spot.
    I've been there. So has Morichika and Tenko.

    If I were you, maybe a firm, not-in-character, "No - I don't cater to that sort of thing", and maybe a blunt expression of disapproval for them having pushed you into it, so they know you're displeased...

    That tends to work pretty well for me.
