rpanons | Uhh

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.

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

I totally get that plurk can make you feel isolated, ignored and boring - definitely have felt like that more than once. But it's hard to explain that pointing out people are ignoring you when they aren't really doing it on purpose doesn't make you more approachable and no one really has an easy answer as to why you don't get a lot of comments on your plurks all the time. There's a difference between 'I feel lonely' and 'Why aren't you guys paying attention to me'; there's a difference between that and pointing out that people aren't giving you the attention you think you're owed because you're commenting on every and anything they plurk.

Or at least, it's hard to explain without coming off like you're punching into weak spots of their self-confidence even more. People like you but they can't hold the entirety of your self-worth.

yeah, pretty much this. like, it's great that you're commenting out, and it sucks you're not getting back much reciprocity, but.... nobody fucking owes you plurk comments, or likes, or snuggles or whatever. and plurk comments and snuggles shouldn't be mistaken for the, I don't know, the nuts and bolts of your self confidence

yeah there's a difference between being lonely and being an attention whore, and plurk is a good remedy for the latter only
