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.

trigger warning: suicide mention

(Anonymous) 2014-02-24 06:24 pm (UTC)(link)
how do you tell when someone actually wants sympathy and when they don't? i barely know some girl on my plurk but we have a mutual game and she made a comment disables plurk yesterday morning just complaining about life and then tonight she just posted this. i want to try to comfort her but I don't know if i should just leave her alone.

*person*
If one more person says to me "I'm not asking much of you" I swear to god I'm going to murder so many bitches.

*person*
I'm aware you're not asking much but when there are so many of you not asking much IT BECOMES A LOT SO FUCK OFF

*person*
You know what. I'm going to quit my job. I'm going to quit the Jaycees board. I'm going to quit roleplay. And I'm going to jump into traffic because at least I could kill myself right!!


I know having comment disables means they don't want to talk about it with plurk but she posted it there to all of us to see. i don't have many people on plurk so what do I do?

do not engage at any cost

this is attentionwhoring at its most obvious

she has it comment disables, so I couldn't reply to that plurk no matter what, i just didn't know if i should bring it up to her or message her privately or something. I feel bad for her....

don't. at most keep your eye on her, but it sounds like she's potentially toxic, not to throw around an anoncomm buzzword. but this being a response to "I don't ask much of you" just feels like it could potentially be very telling of a poisonous personality...

to put it more concisely: ry vibes, tbh

(Anonymous) 2014-02-24 07:38 pm (UTC)(link)
if she wasn't looking for the attention, that would be a private plurk.

op, if you really want to engage, here are your best and worst case scenarios.

best: this is really a cry for help and she doesn't realize how passive-aggressive it looks. send a private plurk and tell her that if she is engaging in suicidal ideation, she needs to get help. link her to some suicide hotlines. don't get sucked into trying to talk someone out of suicidal thoughts, because you're not a professional and you aren't equipped or prepared to deal with it. you may very well harm more than hurt someone in a suicidal funk.

worst: this is exactly the PA attentiongrab it looks like. if you engage, you will get drawn into a buttpatting fiesta until you don't know up from codependency.

seriously though, op i commend you on having a big and apparently innocent heart, but folks like this should be seeking professional help either for 1) serious suicidal ideation or 2) serious pathological insecurity. if you're not a professional, don't engage.

below anon's claiming that she's just joking about killing herself. so looks like you don't need to do a thing, OP.

you should probably edit out super identifying personal details next time like the charity name

knowing this person, she's not toxic, just under a lot of stress from a lot of different corners. sometimes people need a place to vent and don't think it through, goddamn.

yall would cry toxicity if your cat meowed too long at you let's be real

for op - if you don't know how to help or are uncertain of doing so, don't. your health and wellness is important too. if you're honestly concerned and you feel like you're in an okay place for it, then reach out via private plurk. you don't have to force anyone to talk about anything, just let them know that you're there if they want to

that said she'll probably tell you to fuck off if you're leaking plurks like this to anon comms, dude

under a lot of stress isn't an excuse for this kind of bullshit

what's super identifying and personal about it? googling jaycee just gives me a wiki page on a civic organization.

She's under a lot of stress right now and uses plurk as an outlet to vent. It's really disingenuous to pretend that you can get an accurate feel for someone's person off of a hasty plurk made in a moment of frustration.
