Your privilege at any time is only as strong as the wifi signal

Rundown: [community profile] 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 only thing holding me back from opening a game right now is that I feel like both the idea and my modding skills are better for a forum environment (even though I don't forum RP anymore)

I know nothing about DW layout nonsense and profile coding or where you advertise around here. (This post is great but is really nothing near the size of RPG-D over in forumland)

It's not really that different. You don't need fancy code, you just need something more readable than huge blocks of unformatted text. Dreamwidth's default layouts are fine for most games, especially if you turn off some of the useless sidebar modules.

Profile coding is something people do for their own personal lists of characters they play, as a way to show off their design skills. It's not necessary at all. Believe me, a game with a solid premise and organization and clear writing will stand out even if the layout is ugly. You can usually find someone willing to code it up nicely for you, too.

I want to play in your game.

Bring your forum-inspired modding experiences and game ideas over here. As you can see several threads up there are plenty of us sick of the current state of RP and desire something new and refreshing.
