[M] With actual emotional truth & beauty & vision

Rundown: [community profile] rpanons is an anonymous community for role-play related topics. This place serves as a forum for game discussions, canon discussions, RP solicitations (ATP, game ads, open memes), and advice. The occasional off topic comment is inevitable, but please keep heated social and political topics to their respective communities. Posting them here will only get them frozen. Subsequent threads made to bypass a freeze will then be deleted.


Temporary Change: To reduce the strain on Dreamwidth's servers new entries will go up when a post reaches 3,000. Please refrain from spamming so we can stretch these entries for a little longer. We don't need several threads soliciting photo evidence of body parts, and we already know that we only care about yaoi. Failure to comply will only result in deletions and butthurt. "People may notice site slowdown/cache error pages. We're working on fixing. You can help: finish posts at 3k comments, not 5k or more." - Dreamwidth@Twitter

Rules:

Do not post pornographic or shocking images.
Do not share private entries, plurks, chat logs, etc.
Do not use this community as your social/political/hatespeech soapbox.
Do not be redundant. One page does not need three or more threads on one topic/theme.
Do not treat this comm like your personal Plurk or Twitter. Off-topic happens, but it should be open for discussion and not just a play-by-play of your life. No one cares.


Concerns?

how do you get better wording an arguement

like i saw someone on tumblr hating on my favorite character with some really stupid reasons and i want to point out how dumb they are but how do you word

(Anonymous) 2013-01-05 06:01 pm (UTC)(link)
you don't because tumblr

no one wins

Agree with them first. Say - well a lot of people might agree with you for the following reasons. And then, point by point, systematically take apart every argument.

This makes you seem sane. Which is a trick, given that you're arguing over fictional characters. It also has the best chance of changing the other person's mind. If you publicly humiliate someone for their views, the usual response is that they dig in their heels and hate you. And then you get a grudewanker following you around.

Sigh... you're both right. It's just frustrating because she gets so much unjust hate, and this person is making shit up about her to fuel their hatred. She doesn't have to be their favorite, but this is ridiculous.

wait...someone dislikes something you like?

THIS CANNOT STAND

It's not that they dislike her. It's when people call her a slut/whore/easy despite only being with one guy, or saying she should have died by the people who abused her so said abuser's daughter could eventually get with the guy that my favorite character gets with. I see this all the time and it drives me crazy.

why do boomerang taggers never backtag, and backtaggers never boomerang? i know you're online, my character literally asked you a yes/no question, is it that hard to give a reply in less than a week's delay?

(Anonymous) 2013-01-05 08:14 pm (UTC)(link)
because i have other hobbies that i care about way more. sit down, son, i'll get to it when i get to it.*

*disclaimer: i very rarely make people wait a week for replies unless it's a log, but the sentiment remains the same. i make it a point to say on plurk I AM PLAYING VIDYA/READING THIS BOOK/ARRANGING MY COMICS so that ppl know that i'm busy with other shit, too.

I think some boomerangers take it personally when you don't get back to them right away. They drop threads because they think you don't really want to play with them, and are tagging only out of a sense of obligation. I used to be like this, until I realized that there was a population of rpers who always backtag and never drop threads, and post thoughtful, high-quality tags every time.

So now, while I still prefer to boomerang, I will also backtag with this group of reliable people.

(Anonymous) 2013-01-05 09:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Timezones?

I mean, my RPing experience is currently all backtagging at the moment. I can't boomerang because i'm never online at the same time as the other players.

(Anonymous) 2013-01-05 11:09 pm (UTC)(link)
wait i backtag into infinity and can 'boomerang' if your definition of boomerang means within the hour

just i'm not going to fire off a reply within 5 minutes most of the time because most of the threads i get into i can't throw out good tags in that amount of time

maybe if i were in an ecats or one of those short snippy voice threads though, i've done that before

on average if i'm online at the same time the other person is, expect a reply within 15-40 minutes, 60-90 if i have to think some more about it

and because most of my rp partners live on the other side of the world or are active at odd ours honestly i don't have much pressure to get much faster than that...

sorry about being prone to overthinking anon

backtagger here

(Anonymous) 2013-01-06 02:48 pm (UTC)(link)
because i'm writing other tags

because i'm eating dinner

because i went to work

because gmail didn't alert me to the new tag

Two months, one week, three days since my last plurk.

Feels good, man.
