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. 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.

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.

there are very few, people just want to bitch for the sake of bitching and show how awesome and inclusive they are. almost all of them actually don't care about the issue aside from getting their slacktivism badge by screaming TRANSPHOBIC!!! at a stupid fucking internet yaoi game, and have no desire to app an ftm character anywhere.

What's more transphobic is people's responses in discussion about the game than the game itself. Anons are spouting off with some impressive ignorance and saying some truly fucked up shit. It's hard to see how people saying something back to them spreading such bullshit counts as slacktivism.

i think it's fucking stupid all around.

Well that's nice for you, and I'm sure you'll continue to enjoy feeling like if something doesn't touch your life then it doesn't touch anyone's and must therefore not really matter.

[(Anonymous)]

but what if im actually trans

and offended

this isn't fucking hard to figure out and isn't an impossibility

[(Anonymous)]

if you were trans i'd hope you'd realize that raising high hell over a boarding school game isn't worth it.

[(Anonymous)]

how is making one complaint 'raising high hell'

what do i even lose in this exchange

it's not like i burned down the head mod's house or something

[(Anonymous)]

are you the anon who argued with them on the other page? if so, you looked like a fool, and you're making other trans rpers look like fools too.

[(Anonymous)]

argued with who

on what page

what statements did i make that made me look like a fool

how does one transperson maybe or maybe nto acting like an idiot make other trans rpers look dumb

it's not like we're a conglomerate

patch sticking his foot in his mouth didn't make people go "omg cis people are so dumb"

[(Anonymous)]

i hate to break it to you, but that is how things are seen. every time there's been a m/m game, there's always been a gigantic transfit over it. this makes other rpers stop and think "wow these trans people are a bunch of dramatic shitheads."

[(Anonymous)]

well then they're fucking idiots if they judge an entire miniority by the actions of some dudes/dudettes on the internet so i ain't exactly crying tears of blood over here

[(Anonymous)]

you might not be crying but i sure wish you'd shut up.

[(Anonymous)]

They're not making me look like a fool. You're making yourself look like a fool for asserting that the actions of one person define your opinion of everyone within a certain demographic. Die.

[(Anonymous)]

fuck off.

[(Anonymous)]

You first. In front of a truck.

[(Anonymous)]

aren't you tough.

[(Anonymous)]

Learn to think.

[(Anonymous)]

learn to cease breathing.

[(Anonymous)]

Weren't you just mocking me when I said the same thing to you? You people have such short attention spans.

[(Anonymous)]

there's nothing left to do but mock you.

[(Anonymous)]

it's a role playing game

on the internet

.....

go make a difference in the real world where it matters ^_^

[(Anonymous)]

i do

no seriously you haven't explained why i shouldn't complain except 'it's not important!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (because it makes me feel funny)

[(Anonymous)]

I will never for the life of me understand this argument.

Do people who RP not also live in the world?

If people use RP as their mouthpiece for some thinly veiled version of "trans men aren't real men" does that not also mean something about how they think about the world offline?

Ideas don't stay in one place, anon. If a fucked up idea is encountered in RP-land, why in the world should it not be challenged just because of the place that it was encountered?

[(Anonymous)]

because it makes them feel funny inside i guess

[(Anonymous)]

If RP didn't have the ability to make people feel things, no one would do it.

And yet people get bent out of shape when people respond to feeling things about RP. :|
