Quote: Quote: Posters change. There was a time when poster-Jay and poster-Whitney were happy to depict their fictional characters sleeping together. That would have been a bit weird when poster-Whit got married so we moved things on in the PVB. Now poster-Jay's hitched too so maybe it feels a bit strange having his fictional avatar of the same name running around with a hot wolf-girl who's not got the same name as Mrs Boaz? I don't know.Quote: Maybe I have a different point of view but...hollywood does that all the time. Someone who's married will play a character with the exact same name as their real one. On TV they would be single instead. Or maybe they would be married, but their real life wife wouldn't be playing the wife, or they would use a different character name altogether.I think there's a qualative and quantative difference between a professional actor who has elected to live their life that way and an online poster who lent their name to a character a decade ago during a fervid time of poster silliness. Quote: Of course, the actor playing his or her self does have the right to say "I'm not comfortable with this". But generally, if the PV-story Jay Boaz is married, it doesn't mean it has to be someone with the same name as the actual Mrs. Boaz.I was thinking more from the viewpoint of real Mrs Boaz. "Sorry I was up so late, darling. I was writing stories about my fictional wife." | |||||||
