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.

Rules:

Do not post pornographic or shocking images.
Do not share private entries, plurks, chat logs, etc.
Do not post personal information. This includes but is not limited to full names, addresses, phone numbers and so on.
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. Your unfunny, forced memes also fall under this rule.
Do not treat this comm like your personal therapist. Threads about nonfictional suicide, self injury, rape, and abuse will be deleted. There are better resources out there for you.
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.
Shut up about Tumblr. If it's not a discussion about Tumblr RP it will be deleted.
Do not solicit money, Dreamwidth points, or other currency unless you are offering a good or service in return.

Wonder why that is? Do you think it might be that protags of this nature just aren't conducive to a collaborative hobby? Most other fandom spaces (art, fic) are singular endeavors that are shared rather than improvised with another.

no i don't think that, i think people here hate ocs

+1 Even if the OC in question is good, people on this site just hate OCs on principle. It’s a blind irrational dislike, one that is allegedly spurred on by a few bad experiences in the past.

Yet most of the drama on this site is caused by canon rpers fighting about their favorite ships. Does anyone remember the IchiRukia versus IchiOrihime drama? The same for Clerith and Clotif shippers.

Hell, if you want to rp Jayce from Arcane with a Mel over Viktor, expect drama.

And don’t get me started on the Hoyoshit shipping wank.

malleable protags are simply the latest type of characters DWRP has a bug up their ass about. it used to be ocs but the tide changed because stuff like critical role and tabletops as a whole got popular

and the tide will change again

can't wait to see what it'll be next
