Besides, people should handle adult things like adults, and be mature about it. Going as low as insulting people and calling them cyber whores, or even having disdain for it and expressing it agressively, it makes you no better than the school bully.

I can honestly say I’ve never heard someone use the excuse that they only do it for literary reasons, either; in my experience, people have been just as critical and mocking of it as cybering. The only reason I separate “cyber” from “ERP” is that ERP implies intimacy between two characters, whereas cybering implies a level of intimacy between the people behind the screen. I don’t have any desire whatsoever to establish romantic or sexual connections with my RP partner out of character, and establishing clearly-understood boundaries is so important to the sanity of everyone involved that making that distinction is crucial.

While trust and vulnerability are certainly part of ERP, I don’t consider myself to be having sex with my RP partner. I consider it cooperative writing, like all RP–but in this case, it’s writing porn. I would never ERP with someone who viewed what we were doing as having sex and using our characters as proxies.
