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.

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.

Overall, I've found Luceti to be a very welcoming game in more than just people are willing to give about any character a fair shot. They also are welcome to play with slow taggers, backtagging for a long time and plotting. True, not everyone is like this, but the vast majority definitely are. As long as you tag around and play your character, it's not hard to get CR at all.

It's pretty easy to get started and I'll give a few tips to ensure you don't run into any troubles:

1. Make sure to make an OOC intro in the OOC comm with your character journal. Since it is a journal based game, people have to subscribe to see your posts. Since there are going to likely be 100+ characters showing up, I admit we are a bit lazy and hover add on intros and do the mass adding when the mods post it at the end of the cycle. Don't worry if you don't get added by a lot of the journals, many people have multiple characters and only update the reading list for one. The OOC comm doesn't require approval to join, so you can do this upon acceptance.

2. Make sure to comment to the add/remove post once you are accepted into the Luceti comm (usually takes less than 24 hours). This makes sure your character will get added to the master list so people who join after you will add your character. While sometimes there are some players who will go and comment for those who didn't do so, don't depend on that.

3. Post your intro on your journal. It's usually best to wait about a day after you post your OOC intro to do this so people will see it, but posting it early won't hurt your chances of getting tags. And just realize you may get new tags to your entry for even a couple of days after you make the post, so don't worry too much if you don't get a response right off. One nice thing about Luceti is that the majority of players are perfectly fine with late tags and backtagging.

Forgot to add to this one thing:

4. After you've posted your intro and you think your character has a feel for the journals, go tag other people's posts! Even if they don't have a feel, you can always action it up as well. Tagging around shows you are interested and having fun and people will notice that and be more likely to show interest in your character and posts.

You also can skip #3 and just go to tagging around. There's plenty of people who have introed their character on another character's post. I know a few this cycle have done that already and then that lets your intro be something besides a "Where am I?" type post that we will see far too much of.
