Does Anyone Play As Themselves?

[Mobil]

Joining "i play myself" team

[XHulkX]

Just play as myself but that don't mean i do not try RP with my in game wife  or that it always been like this. 

[TylerJ]

Good topic there I think. Personally, I know I enjoy the game more by playing myself, but I could see why someone would like to take the role of another person just for personnal enjoyment, fetish, etc.

 

Just always be clear with the players you are talking to, they are persons too. That's my opinion!

[Yamaguchi]

Why hide who you really are?

 

Yes, a lot of plays who think that they are themselves are not, but this topic has been beaten to death.

 

On the other hand, "role-players" either belong to the above group and just use role-play as an excuse to themselves and others when they mess up or want to have a break from themselves or wish to think in a different way then they do in real life.

 

Personally, I have characters for the last purpose, but usually play someone close to my personality, mannerism and appearance even though there is no way to be even remotely close to me given every game's limitations and how this affects other players.

 

EDIT: Even though the obvious answer for most is safety.

I AM just gonna say......Fine!!!!,I at times yes play with myself, pretending, and acting, and Fantasizing through hott and heavy descriptive dialog from time to time, Godd, who doesn't it's a damn sex game people, if you don't, your lying..lol.....Ok , oops, I just realized, The Question was, does anyone play as themselves, NOT with Themselves. .HAHA!!!.Well Wtvr, jokes...I had to keep beating this topic to death, hehe, damn someone had to put a funny angle to it..... .No but seriously, short answer for me, Is I play as me,whom I really am, a pain in the ASS, sarcastic, social lunatic , who is all about fun, fun , fun...well, And I will leave it at that. . I SECOND all the above hundred responses that have been said...lol...Haha, just of course had to re spin it a little ROBO style..haha

[Vermilion]

Sort of, but my avatar doesn't look at the floor enough and has too many female friends to be me.

[Chrisrm15]

I play as myself. The Chris that is is the game and the Chris out of the game is the same.

I feel like it would be too much effort to create a whole different person lol

[Callista]

I kinda agree with Yamaguchi, but only to an extent. It's very tricky to play as oneself in the sense a lot of people in this thread point out: "I'm the same me here that I am in the outside". Out of the simple fact that this is a virtual enviroment and the outside is a physical one. You will act differently just because of this little fact wheter you realize/admit it or not. Sure, you may carry your morality, sense of humour, tastes, personal background and whatnot in that sense I won't deny you are being yourself... my point here is not about those characteristics but how you react to other people be it posivetely or negatively. Will you be as mean to someone who did you wrong in the outside if you can see their face betraying regret despite them saying they do not regret their wrong doings? Will you be as kind to a person who is clearly showing animosity towards you in their faces? Doubtful, body language changes social interactions a lot and the virtual enviroment removing them is in itself something that will make a person not exactly play as "themselves". 

 

That all is without factoring how many people who are extroverts here are introverts irl and vice versa. Some people express themselves better through written words, some others through spoken words and hence can be more true to "being themselves" more in a certain means of socializing than another. 

 

Also, creating a fake personality and roleplaying their persona isn't that hard people, politicians do it all the time xD (this last phrase is intended as humour before someone responds to it)

[Guest Mason]

Sorry if this has been raised already, but seriously why are men playing the game as straight women? Why not admit you're gay or bi? It's pretty pathetic that you're tricking us straight men into doing stuff with you when you're blatantly a gay or bi guy. 

 

I'm sure there are plenty of cute gay and bi men in game, so why are you doing this shit and going after us straight guys?

 

Some of you are pretty obvious, coz you use pics of random womens vaginas or some nude model or yeah, even famous porn stars.

 

I realise some people play out fantasies and that's fine, but when it could potentially mess with someone, then it's really not fine at all.

 

Bottom line.....WHY??

[pashion]

I'm afraid that is the internet mason. People can and will be whoever they want to be that will never change. People play 3dx and other games like it for many diferent reasons, fantacys ect. If they want to play as a female that is their choice and the way they want to play the game. I am not saying I agree with what they do people close to me have been mislead here also. But it's just a risk you need to take when signing up. Maybe if you are looking for somthing more serious try asking them for skype or whatever. And I believe this topic has been covered in the past. But I'm to lazy to look for it.

 

P.s sorry for spelling mistakes im using phone.

[Guest Mason]

I guess I just have to avoid the obvious ones XD I guess same could be said about men playing as lesbian women. It just seems a bit silly. Each to their own I guess.

Its the internet, this product isn't exactly labelled a dating portal either. So don't really see how it harms anyone less you're looking to hook up IRL, but then again this probably not be the best option for that either. 

 

As there is probably a lot who see this more as a escape to have some fun without any RL strings attached. But then again that's just my opinion, chances are 70-80% people here not going to be their real life representation here either, think few of us can't really say we look like something that came out of a Bikini contest or for Guys Euroman magazine.

[Guest Twiggy]

I'm with you Mason, I think it's pathetic and to say it is just the Internet is a cop out.

This thread will end up being attacked and removed like all the ones before it, but before it does I will say the same thing I have said several times before.

Yes there is no way to completely stop it from happening, but like other web services have done there are ways to reduce it.

The way it is now we do not even have anything to report these people for and most of them will argue they have a right to do it.

They argue that because there is no rule in place to say they cannot.

Yes it has been brought up before, so many times people are sick of seeing it.

It will continue to be brought up until 3DXChat at least tries to do something about it.

If people don't care about the sex of the person behind the keyboard that is fine, but there are those that do and nothing is being done for them.

One thing I suggested they do was attacked and said to be denying people their privacy, what a load of BS.

They need to make it so these people can be reported for what they have done, which is not respecting another players wishes.

If a rule is put in place and they can be reported for breaking it then several things will happen.

 

1> A percentage of them will no longer do it as it will mean breaking a rule.

2> The ones that do it can be reported and face suspension or cancellation of their accounts.

3> Players can make it clear to these people they do not wish to participate in their type of games.

 

There are other benefits from it as well but they are the main ones.

For that to be possible they need to add just a couple of things.

 

1> A box to check in our profiles to say that the rl life sex of a player matters to them. (It needs to be like this so it is official)

2> A rule put in to say that players must respect that choice.

 

Something like...

 

It is against the rules of 3DXChat to misrepresent your real life sex to a player that has stated that the real life sex of a player they have sexual relations with in 3DXChat matters to them by checking the box in their profile.

 

It may need to be sorted better than I have just said, worded differently or presented in another way but it would reduce the amount that are doing it and make it reportable for the ones that continue to do so.

 

As I said, saying it is just the way of the Internet is a cop out.

 

We have to start protecting the new players that do not know what goes on in there and has so many of them leave the game because of it.

Bottom line.....WHY??

 

Yeah i have asked that question before too. but all i can do is to put up theories

 

1. Female Avatars will get more sex no matter how you look at it

2. some guys just arent lucky with their male characters... so they jump on something that is a sure deal

3. they live their fantasies to fill their own needs. (humans are quite selfish with all the mememes and i, i, i,'s

 

Me and a girlfriend had a LONG chat about that so we put up tons of theories why they do it, Is it because they can? is it because they are gay/bi? or is it just fantasy like you said?

 

To me those who play female characters as male remind me of the pick up artists. Bending their reality something so they can get success in life. 

 

P.s: Not all of them are bad people who deceive men.

 

Have a good day ^^

This time it is the gender, what is next?

 

... rl skin color?

... rl age?

... rl social standing?

 

If YOU are offended by it, then it is YOUR responsibility to point that out before starting something. Or do you tell anyone you meet ingame that you are the same sex as your ava? I bet not.

 

Please keep in mind that this is a place to life your fantasies. How many BBCs out there are caucasian and have a small dick irl? Does it matter? I guess not. But we have to protect our new players that don't know that fact! So please bring in the rule that you have to state the length of your cock irl as male player!!! (For those that don't get it, that was a joke)

 

The great thing about this place is that things like gender, age, heritage or money on the bank account don't matter. What matters is the soul and the character!

 

And to those that think this is a dating agency: it is not!

 

Live and let live...

 

If you are offended by something, hit on the keyboard and let the world know. Expecting others to change their way to be because of you is very small-minded.

 

 

Have fun all! (This is what this place is about)

Obvious solution would be to divide servers, one that required gender verification of some kind and other that is free for all, then i guess those it really bothers can pick the first. Only question is if the percentage of those who wan't to know gender specific of their partners RL would actually make up a large enough percentage to support a extra server.

 

I mean there going to be many here that wants to keep RL and 3DxChat separately, remember another company said somewhere when asked about making female protagonist in their games a option. The reply was that current marketed for female virtual sex game user were to small to make it viable, so think a lot of guys would find very few actual women on those servers, more so women who are interested in mixing RL with virtual experiences.

 

That said i can follow what your saying just don't think you'd ever really get a result of it where everyone wins, Take Yareel another example that is more of a virtual sex dating simulation, the girls vs men ration is like a 1:3 maybe even larger. Some the real girls i meet there which were there the brief time i tried it like me quit, because they thought it became to personal and felt they were harassed to much by guys for RL sex.

[MarMohan]

First off women don't get more sex than men.  Second it's how you are that makes the difference.  If you act like an a@@hole you won't get any or very little, act like a tw@t and it's the same.  The time that I have been on there, let's just say, I've seen more than enough to know who is who and what's done. 

 

There are women who pretend to be men and men who pretend to be women.  This is the internet you get what you pay for.  You want someone honest try striking up a conversation then you should be able to tell a little more about who they are, but not always.

 

I've come across very few that are who they say they are, so use caution when in game.  That is the only way you'll get around the bull that runs through the game.

[Albundy]

I think the issue here is choice isn't it? Or the freedom of choice? I don't think there is anything wrong with players being able to choose the gender of their avatar nor the sexual orientation of their avatar. I don't think there is anything wrong with playing 3dx with the hope to date others. However, I think it is wrong to deceive others. While it is a game the reality is that there are many who play the game to make friends and to have serious relationships. So there is the very real potential to be hurt by others in this game. I know that this has happened to several of my friends here and this saddens me.

 

So I think it would be a good idea for 3dx to have the option, for those who wish to use it, of indicating their preferences in terms of real life gender and sexual preferences. I'd imagine that it would be very difficult to enforce and there would still be some who continue to deceive others, but I think it would be a step in the right direction.

 

[XXXJessikaXXX]

humm yeah like you said..."here we go again"

 

"Why?"... "because they can"

 

but I'm afraid you all guys need to consider several points before starting making judgment about the "fakers"...

 

First one we all have to consider Virtual life's main goal is to give "EVERYONE" a chance to experiment something different of what ANY OF US have in real, and that generated already since the VL started years ago, Two separated groups of players... 

1.the "Real Ones 

and 

2."the Fakers"

 

As for me and my 3 years experience in virtual games i may say that the "real ones" (not pretending to offend anybody, of course) are normally ppl who doesn't have relationships in real, or much things to do, with large amounts of free time, and also have the clear intention to make something "serious here", the ones that even wants to meet in real their couples in virtual, and comes that "straight", that the simple idea of being having something with a "faker" gives them nausea, they also normally "replace" or "compensate" their real life with this...i respect that naturally, but i also learned that the people quite focused to the "real side of the things" in virtual, "Learns the Reality of the Virtuality" in the hard way, ends quite disapointed and angry about the way virtual life is, ends in the middle of terrible dramas, and eventually abandon virtual life definitive..(the way it must if they really wants pure reality)... but all comes the fact that a jerk in real.. is a jerk in virtual too.

 

The second groups comes diferent, are normally ppl who are married or have solid relationships in real, jobs and activites that wont allow them to play here longer..(but not all cases) and comes the virtual life (may be not just this game, but even Facebok, AshleyMadison, Twitter, or any virtual life game), with the clear intention and the chance to be "someone else". as for it... "everyone likes to ROLEPLAY" so a faker becomes the "Ultimate Roleplayer" and they not just pretend to be another gender, but comes more vast the varieties...

 

As for the guys may be to be straight females, lesbian females or even bisexual... pretend to be shemales, or go for some more "straight things" like a white nerdy fatty guys pretending to be "muscular Afro stallion guys", millionaires in real that seduce innocent girls, while they barely reach the end of the month with money... and blah blah blah... a sort of funny things.... and comes also for women... a real life women may play as a male... an old woman may play as a young one, another Futanary... or several combinations that in any case... that obey directly a sexual preference and mean to fulfill a fantasy., the same way... a jerk who fakes.. is a Jerk anyway.

 

BUT!!

 

nice ppl be Real or be Fakes. are nice ppl in virtual too...  

 

As for me I'm quite OpenMinded, and I have no problem at all with being living a fantasy with a faker in virtual, (may be disapointing in some cases yes) but then comes the fact that if some one enjoyed a time with a person in virtual... they did it with the "soul" or the deep escence of the person, not with the gender actually, for a "empty gender you may just call Bob or Betty"... is the personality what generates the simphaty. just like that.

 

And i also reject the idea to "punish" or cancel the subscription of a "faker" because that is a clear act of Discrimination against a sexual preference, Obeys only an spiteful and vengeful desire... and in this game, the chance to live fantasies that way, is the main reazon of the existence of places like this.

consider the fact that there is a large amount of "fakers", and sites like this may loose more than the 80% of their subscribers, and is nooooot such as a good idea

 

What i think... "Open Your eyes and Land your feets... This is a Virtual Life Game and things are like that"

If you dont like to "be played", then my humble advice is to meet the person quite preety well before you try to engage into something with them since casual sex... till a relationship..., chat, know their preferences, and if there is a chance exchange pictures with "special Unique messages" or even go for the video chat, then you will feel confident to do the next step...(But For What?... real life couples also fights and break all the time!!)...  

 

But anyway.. that's only my opinion... what do you think ppl?

 

thank you for reading this, and sorry the typos

Kisses 4U All...

1. Female Avatars will get more sex no matter how you look at it

 

Lol... then according to my experiences in-game, the male players must be monks... :/

Wouldn't it be better to just divide servers into those who want to attach their RL gender to their profile and can verify their gender, i mean if its that important for guys or girls to know their sex partners in here's RL gender, then they shouldn't want to be on a server with people who don't right?

 

Problem solved.

That would segregate the community into two sections which we do not want.
