Rundown:

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. It doesn't look like DW can handle 5,000 comment entries at the moment so 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.

I have such a hard time tagging characters I find boring in canon.

Nepetas and Equiuses are my downfall.

when i can't sleep, i hug a pillow and pretend i'm my character cuddling with his girlfriend.

works every time.

oh god I do this too

When I can't sleep, I like to think up horribly wangsty, borderline ooc, dramatic shippy situations with my characters that I would never play out.

anon who posted the comment above yours, and i do this too

both shippy and nonshippy stuff

h&c gets me to sleep every night

i was afraid of joining the game at first out of fear of disappointing you

now i'm anxious because i feel like i'm disappointing you (and plenty of other people) and i feel like i should drop or something because you deserve so much better

... I can't RP with them. They all either take RP too seriously and stress the fuck out over every little thing so much that it makes me anxious and kills my fun, or they're just... bad at it. Not even in an egregiously OOC, but so focused on being what they think is IC that their characters are often really flat and boring.

I can't get interested in tagging most characters whose canons I don't know. I'm a nerd so I know a lot of canons, but still, it makes it hard to have fun in panfandom.

I get irrationally jealous when you spend all of your time doing smut logs with her, when I have to beg you for tags sometimes, and I really hate myself for it. I want to believe we're all really good friends, as long as we've known each other, but you really obviously favor her, and it gets on my nerves.

If you hate threading with me, the least you could do is say so. It'd save me a lot of heartache. If not, could you kindly stop sucking her dick so much and thread with the rest of us every once in a while? I'm not the only one who wants to play with you more.

I know you love playing this character but you make her so BORING and it kills my motivation to tag with you.

She wasn't this boring in canon, you know.

I have about four friends who will tag me until a scenario is done and none of them are willing to quite play out what I like to play out or, if I try and get them to, fight me every step of the way.

I have a whole ton of friends who will play out those certain plots and things with excitement. But only in one night. So once one of them goes to bed, the plot progression stops for good and I have to wait until the next time it comes up and just hope I can rope them in earlier in the day so I get more done.

Just.

Fuck!

Some days it is very hard to tell if I actually suck or if depression is messing with my head again.

Shipping makes me really uncomfortable. I don't know if it's just my hangups as a person getting in my way as a player, but I just don't like playing out ships. Even in memes, (where I usually avoid the shippy memes, obviously) sometimes it just shows up because the other person is interested and I start backing out slowly.

Whine more, get over it, it's just RP, but whatever. It ruins my happy-fun-pretendy-times.

Have you ever been in a game's chat and you see everyone encouraging each other to app characters?

I wish that, just once, I was one of the people everyone was trying to enable. I can guess why I'm not... I'm not into the right genres or don't know/am not super into the canon of the month... stuff like that. And I appreciate that people don't just throw whatever at me without considering what I like, but... Yeah. I'd just like to be "in" on it sometime.

Ugh, I need a plate of cheese for all this whine.

i wish people wouldn't claim that they're looking for people to musebox with and then they try to lure people into a game.

one, that's misleading as fuck and it's no wonder no one wants to join your cast. i should've taken your lone canon warrior complaints as a warning sign.

two, i already fucking told you i don't have the time for a game when we started chatting, why did you have to wait until i made my icons and everything to tell me how excited you are about the app i never told you i was writing? i NEVER mentioned joining a game, writing an application, anything. where the FUCK did you get the idea that i was joining?

I never feel like I deserve the positive feedback I get. It isn't a case of "oh noooo I suck really I do here is my ass please pat it" I mean I get good responses on my HMD and feedback memes and stuff, but I still feel like I'm not even half as good as others seem to think I am.

I've never even spoken about this before because I don't want to be one of those players.

the more games you're in with multiple characters the less likely I want to play with you.

A few games? Fine. And I'm sure somewhere out there someone can handle a bunch of games with a bunch of characters in each. But I have not run into them. But it usually leads to flat, boring, mass produced characters, or well played characters who's attention you can't get. And IDK which is worse.

I had always respected player x until they behaved badly on a public forum outside of the game. No, they weren't my favorite person, but I never behaved anything but civil towards them and I never let anyone in on how I really felt towards them. Still, to this day I can't figure out why everyone thought I hated her enough to wank on her. What's worse, I know who did it... I just never had the courage to say so because I never thought anyone would believe me.

Worse yet, I feel like everyone still hates me over it. Thanks to that instance I still freak out and freeze up when I see the people involved with that player on a friendly level in other games. It's my biggest regret that I was never able to tell the full truth, but now it's been so long I know no one would care and wonder why I was bringing up something ages old.

I get irrationally jealous when I see people in my game squeeing about the amazing threads they're in... because mine are never among them. I'm not the type who actively seeks validation, it doesn't totally destroy my confidence/ability to play or anything, and I never mention it because man does it make me feel whiny... I just wish that someone would squee over a thread they're doing with me once in a while. :(

I really want to play Calvin Candie from Django Unchained. Unfortunately there's no chance in hell that the web would let me get away with it. Playing him would be like walking through a minefield.
