Put the bunny back in the box

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.

I'd like to know which games these are too. I hear about people getting shamed for playing f/f or m/m but I have never seen this. I've never been in a game where bigoted shit of all kinds wasn't called out and shamed harshly.

Honestly, I've seen a lot of m/m shaming. Anytime someone mentions a m/m ship on anoncomm you get 'yaoi buttsex' comments as if just the fact that it's m/m means that it can't possibly be IC or well played. Also, you can't forget boarding. The mod was spammed with graphic gory images. That goes a bit beyond shaming and into the bullying territory.

Though most RPers seem to set f/f rp as the holy grail, any hint at all that it's being played by a guy and the entire brigade is screaming neckbeard. Apparently it's only okay if it's girls playing f/f. :/

okay thanks for bringing up boarding, that is a good example, but I am talking specifically about general games. I see people talk about getting shamed in whatever game they happen to have been trying to play m/m or f/f in but game names never get dropped in those stories when they should be. I want to know which games are enclaves of bigoted assholes.

Note I'm a mod and I sure as fuck wouldn't allow that shit to fly in my game so don't say all games are like that.
