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.

March is generally a slow time.

A lot of RPers are college students, and when I was in college, April was exam time and late March/early April was when most essays and projects were due. Unlike the November/December app seasons, summer vacation is right around the corner, so might as well wait a month or two to app instead of jumping in during a stressful time.

I actually liked apping in April because by the time I was accepted there was only a week or two of exams before summer and a new character gave me something to look forward to, so I don't think I ever apped anywhere in March when I was in school.

It's not March yet and the way I read OP'c comment is that they think it's been slow for a week or two already. At least I hope nobody comes here to complain about slowness that's only lasted a day.

In which countries the semester ends in April? I'm curious to know as I find it odd if people are as busy as you say in February. Seems like that leaves just January to do any RP.

OP is talking about reserves, test drives, and ATP which in most games would be people looking to app in March right now as most app rounds open early month and have completed their February cycle already.

I'm Canadian and the semester is from Jan-April.

I'm in the US and my semester always ended at the end of April, with final exams being usually the first week in May.
