So, Ziggy is a glam rock superstar, going on the decline. He's fallen into a pit of drugs and mediocrity, and is trying to pull himself out. One day, while walking home alone from a disastrous concert, he sees a simple message written on a wall.
This Ain't Rock and Roll, this is GENOCIDE!
Now Ziggy has been searching for meaning in his fucked up life for a while now, and he takes this message to heart. Why? It seems like a nonsensical out of context message someone randomly wrote on a wall in the middle of nowhere.....and that is pretty much what it is, or at least, that's what it seems like at first.

The year is 2013. David Bowie finds himself in a hospital bed strapped with white bandages and a burnt arm. He is then discovered by a doctor who reveals him that he has been in a coma for 9 years and that the government has officially disbanded the Diamond Dogs due to the deaths of Freddie Mercury, John Lennon, Paul McCartney and Marc Bolan. David Bowie is saddened by the loss of his comrades and especially sad at the death of his best friend Marc Bolan and almost manages to commit suicide before the doctor stopped him. David Bowie is then brought to high ranking U.S military officers who tell him that h they want to give him a mission. David initially refuses but accepts after finding out that the mission has to do with Bolan's death. He is then given a new team called once more the "Diamond Dogs" and formed by: Ringo Starr, The Daft Punk Duo, the current Pink Floyd and Justin Bieber. David asks why they put Justin Bieber in the team since he can't do shit, but is forced to co-operate with him. David is also warned that some singers have rebelled against the U.S government and might attempt to kill him in his mission.
David Bowie is then dropped in a South American jungle where he is tasked to infiltrate a large mansion in the jungle with Justin Bieber as his cover sniper. Pink Floyd Squad is also deployed to assist David, but as they attack the mansion, they discover that there was a lot of napalm inside it and are blown up. David is the only survivor and Justin Bieber flees. David is then captured and tortured for information about the day before he went into a coma. David is unable to remember, but has a vision of him and Bolan exploding inside the chopper. David is however freed by Ringo who escorts him to Mexico and reveals that the one who set up the mansion trap was Napalm Death.
The two track down Napalm Death and interrogate them about Bolan's killer. Napalm Death reveals that Red Hot Chili Peppers have something to do with it and that the mastermind is currently imprisoned in Nigeria. David goes to Nigeria and finds out that the prison has actually been mind controlled by Red Hot Chili Peppers and that the leader of the prison is planning a nuclear launch against America. David goes after the leader while Ringo goes after Red Hot Chili Peppers.
David however notices the similarities of the leader and Bolan and begins to suspect that Bolan might still be alive like him. After an intense chase, David can't bring himself to kill Bolan and surrenders himself. Bolan then knocks him unconscious and David dreams about the accident. In the dream, he sees the same burning helicopter from before and clearly sees Bolan disintegrate. He then wakes up, tied to a chair with Bolan next to him. He asks Bolan who he is and Bolan reveals that he is actually his son, Rolan Bolan.
Rolan reveals that the government planned to kill both David and Bolan because they found out about something disturbing. Rolan reveals that he plans to bomb the U.S for killing his father and offers David to join him. David refuses and just as Rolan is about to shoot him, Justin Bieber snipes Rolan from afar and reveals that Ringo hasn't answered his calls. David suspects that Red Hot Chili Peppers is just a pawn and finds Ringo's corpse along with the corpses of Red Hot Chili Peppers. He then finds out that Ringo left a mixtape before dying where he says that he left a hint for David to find and that he has to be a real Beatle to find it. David listens to the tape backwards and finds out hidden coordinates that bring him to Tokyo.
There he finds Daft Punk who reveals that they are purely robotic and made by the U.S to kill all singers, since they are more threatening than helpful and plan to blame Justin Bieber since everyone hates him. David fights them and destroys one of the robots, but the second one easily overpowers him. But just as the robot prepares to deal the finishing blow. Justin Bieber takes the blow for him and dies. David, enraged, destroys the robot and prevents the deaths of many singers. David then hides his face from the rest of the world and he like many others is substituted with a robotic copy. The people of Earth go back to their normal lives.

Nah man, don't be like that. Even if it doesn't get voted for in the end, you should still try to work on it up to that point. It's not the worst idea ever, really.
There's no need for you to act like that, just ignore their criticism if you like the idea.

Fuck it, I don't even want to do it anymore. I'm sick of you and Dere shitting on it. Maybe if you actually described more about it besides "ZIGGY STARDUST IN SPACE LOL" we'd stop shitting on it. As it Stands you just described a bare bones city with sci-fi added in it for teh lulz and I feel as if this is all one big pun which while funny, fucking sucks if you only do shit because it's "cool" and don't think about the context or purpose. I'm not trying to discourage you, but at least fucking try to accept our feedback instead of just saying keeping shit as it is. Change it around, rewrite some parts of it. This is a COMMUNITY site, not a site where we come to hear someone's epic tale. If you want to write something for others to read, make a spin-off written by you. If you actually want to make a place that is for RPing and not for some wacky shit with a plot, just think about you as a new RPer trying to RP in that setting. That's all I have to say on the matter.

The plot is the only thing that MATTERS! I only described a bare bones city because I want to tell a goddamn story, rather than telling you people everything before going in.

That's where you're wrong. If you wanna tell a story, make a fucking spin-off goddamnit. This is a COMMUNITY driven story for fuck's sake hello, how many times must I repeat this?

The point of the pitching thread or whatever it was called was to introduce the setting, not to introduce the story. Yeah, the story matters as you keep insisting, but so does the setting, and that was what we were doing in the thread. Maybe there'll be another thread where you can describe the story, who knows? But that was not the thread to do it in. there are rules, dammit!!!

It shouldn't have to be a spin-off just because I want o tell a fuckin story! What don't you people get about that? We don't RP for the setting! We didn't do it CCR, and we aren't doing it in PC. We RP for the story and characters, it's how it works.

We RP for the story and characters, it's how it works. Hello you got it all fucking wrong. Even Dere told me that my plot and backstory would be erased, because the plot doesn't matter for fuck's sake! What matters is the setting, because it gives us a place to RP and various places and locations to add little events that develop our character! In BMR we had a shit ton of events, some resolved and unresolved. That wasn't a plot in any way or form, just a mixture of subplots. PC is a fucking race too so there's no plot, it's just getting from Point A to Point B at the moment and most of the actual plot and masterplan is told from the shadows. So hello, please listen to me for one fucking time and respect the goddamn rules. Even I felt a bit sad when I got told that my backstory could have easily been discarded, because I worked a lot on it. However I respected the fucking rules so you better respect them as well for fuck's sake.

Look. All I want from this is a setting. A simple framework that we can work from. After we have decided this, we will decide the plot among ourselves, because I don't want the story to be too much in the hands of any one person. This way, we will create the RP that we ALL want to play in, not just an RP that one or two people want to play in.
And don't expect your RP to be popular if it is literally just about a singer songwriter that most people on this site aren't interested in. I don't know if you just think it's funny or if you just want to write a story about david bowie or whatever the fuck, other people aren't interested in him. Like I said, if you want to tell a story, go make a spinoff. Besides, we try to keep real life people out of the RP as much as possible, right?
