[M] Just as planned

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?

Hey! This is the designated catch-all entry. This is not an invitation to spam to your heart's content. The same rules apply.

i have this friend. we met through rp, but it'd been at least a solid year since we played together. we were friends through all that time.

a couple days ago we started a thread together though and ever since she's been extremely PA that i wasn't tagging fast enough, even though i said i wasn't comfortable tagging with that particular character.

yesterday, she said if i wasn't comfortable tagging her with that character, we shouldn't be friends, said she was tired of dealing with my shit. she proceeded to sign off on me and defriended me from plurk. now, today, she's saying she didn't mean it.

is it worth it to even bother trying to talk to her again?

(Anonymous) 2012-09-01 05:34 pm (UTC)(link)
i want to fucking see an example of one of the above.

(Anonymous) 2012-09-01 05:36 pm (UTC)(link)
if this is unusual behavior, i'd try to talk about what happened. who knows, maybe something's the matter in her offline life.

but if she's been pulling this kind of shit on you regularly, then drop it like it's hot

Oops, linking dreamcodes was a mistake, but an anon below got the community I meant to type out. I don't know how that happened.

Okay. As long as there are no actual complaints, I won't worry.

(Anonymous) 2012-09-01 05:51 pm (UTC)(link)
hell no, drop them yesterday.

(Anonymous) 2012-09-01 06:00 pm (UTC)(link)
Tell her up front if she was being irrational and jumping to conclusions, and correct her on her assumptions. That kind of behavior is uncalled for, and not easily forgiven. (Unless you're a pushover.)

She probably harbors some resentful feelings about you, just get her to air her thoughts, air your feelings, and then give your so-called friendship some space.

Be the adult in this instance, don't get extremely defensive and PA

(Anonymous) 2012-09-01 06:12 pm (UTC)(link)

(Anonymous) 2012-09-01 06:32 pm (UTC)(link)
but what if you don't ship any of your characters with anyone.....

does this make me the ultimate winner or ultimate loser of this thread

(Anonymous) 2012-09-01 06:37 pm (UTC)(link)
me

it's usually after I've played the character for awhile and have amassed a fair amount of pics over time. might as well put them all to good use.

idk it's a fun thing to do when I've got time on my hands

shut the fuck up you blabbering tittybaby

Probably that it's largely populated with terrible RP, but if you keep at it, you can find some really cool people and characters to play against. I've had a lot of fun there. The trick is to not expect much. Then you're always pleasantly surprised when you find something good.

Yeah, I know. But I still appreciate this and Bill Nye separately.

(Anonymous) 2012-09-01 07:25 pm (UTC)(link)
What do you do when someone who's a part of your small circle of castmates is making thinly-veiled attempts to push her ship (your character + hers, which is not canonical but is a popular fan pairing)? I don't ship them and I've been steering our interactions into a more neutral and friendly/platonic ground but it doesn't seem like she's getting it.

(Anonymous) 2012-09-01 07:28 pm (UTC)(link)
Talk to her about.

"I'm getting the impression you ship these two characters but I'm not really into it. I love them as friends though and don't want you to take it personally."

or something

(Anonymous) 2012-09-01 07:30 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I just might end up doing that. I've considered it as soon as I noticed what she was doing but decided against it because she's very sensitive. Also, she's already turned everyone in our small circle onto the ship. I'm the odd one out.

Re: sa

(Anonymous) 2012-09-01 07:32 pm (UTC)(link)
If she's sensitive just make sure you're very tactful about it. IF (that's a very big if) it's something you could maybe see your character developing into, you could let her know you don't ship it but if their relationship naturally develops that way, it's something you would be open to, but at this point you're not seeing that.

sa again

That'll soften the blow. Good idea. Thanks anon :D

[personal profile] doublelips 2012-09-01 07:53 pm (UTC)(link)
This is literally the only one I could come up with. And it's probably because I don't play her in a game and don't think it makes any sense to ship her with anyone in canon.
