Godmodding is a funny thing actually. We usually give massive examples of it (ie: killing, blowing up the world), but Godmodding can also be little things. One example is that there are two characters, let's say Kyle and Trisha. Trisha is running down the street to jump in her car when Kyle suddenly rips the battery out. That prevents the RPer of Trisha from doing what she may have planned. Now, something about smaller forms of Godmodding like my example is that only some would consider that Godmodding. I most likely wouldn't, and if I did, I probably wouldn't mention anything and work around it, that's the beauty of writing with others. Personally I would only ask you to change it if it was absolutely positively totally needed for the plot. Then there's things down the middle, like pickpocketing someone, or grabbing a gun right out of someone's hand when they were pointing it at you, or jumping on them. It's not controlling the character exactly, but you're still sort of forcing them into a situation. Again, I probably wouldn't raise a big fuss over something like that, I work around things. The best way to keep from upsetting people is get to know them, their quirks, their personalities. What is everyone like outside the stories? For antagonists, I highly suggest you start out with a neutral or good type person, to, again, get a feel for the RPs and the way others write. One thing about RPing is that you're going to be doing reading, a lot of reading, tons. If you're really worried about your character, feel free to post it and ask other people's opinions on it. |
