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.

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.

The communication in this game seems crazy plurk-heavy. I wonder if I'd feel left behind in all the shenanigans, not having plurk myself and not willing to get it.

It's a well-founded concern, anon. I'm in the game and have a plurk account, but I get left behind easily enough by not being online at the right times. Plus, I'm feeling horrible for the handful of players that either don't have accounts or don't use their accounts frequently, because they are seeming to be left out of a lot of the major plotting and planning by both the other players AND the mods.

I'm intending to bring it up to the mods sometime soon to see if we can reach some kind of balance in communication. Right now, it's a little unfair.

we're actually talking about it right now, planning on adding in plot posts and stuff so everyone gets a chance at plotting with the group

sorry about that anon, we're going to try to be better about it

You read my mind, anon! Anon above me is right - we're having a discussion about this on Plurk. I think the lack of communication is unintentional, but that doesn't mean it can't be fixed. Hopefully we can figure out something that works for everyone and not let our excitement get the better of us!

we're having a discussion about this on Plurk.

the irony

There's nothing wrong with plotting a bunch on Plurk, but when so much stuff is exclusively planned on there and when NPC involvement is so (wonderfully, beautifully) integral to so much stuff that goes down, it gets problematic. I check my account on there reasonably often, but I keep coming in after the latest Plurk powwow has 500+ replies and figuring out what's been planned is a mini-headache by itself.

So, I'd love it if we could have more OOC comm posts like the one that went up for the boat plot recently. It's much easier to read up on what everyone's scheming in those and much, much easier to jump in on the fun even if you come in late.

I'm super glad that it seems working for you, anon! I know the mods have plans for more plotting posts in the future, and as a player I definitely don't mind putting more up as we need them. Especially if it makes things easier for everyone.
