Unfunny wanky stereotypes

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.

Just dropping in to say thanks for sharing your side of things? Can I ask how you feel about castmates who play movie-only, but don't expect you to do the same? Is it a serious irritation for you, or do you not care so much as long as you're free to do your own thing?

not an irritation at all! people can play whatever they prefer and i certainly don't want to police their fun. if there was a strict divide between movie and book canon for them, which there isn't for me, i'd simply request to agree upon the fact we both played canon aus. both are correct and flawed to a certain degree, no one will ever be 100% right.

i can't speak for anyone else but i've found the rotg/goc fandom is very mature and friendly, probably because we're all playing such silly iconic characters ;) i genuinely can't imagine anyone would have a huge problem, either way.

Oops, pretend that "thanks for sharing your side of things" up there ended in a period, not a PA-looking question mark. Typooooos.

That definitely sounds like the kind of compromise I'd most like to go with, so I'm glad to hear that others feel the same way! Everyone in the fandom that I've played with in the past has been great, but as a newbie I didn't want to be That Person who came in and did everything wrong. This whole discussion has been really helpful in helping me figure out what I'm going to do, so thank you again. ♥
