rpanons | What the heckie?

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.

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.

I'm looking to app Maya Scott from Elemental Masters.

- Slow to medium pace
- Friendly to newbies
- No sex games

I'm kind of new to DWRP, I don't know what would be best to start out with.

Okay, I'll bite and try to help you, newbie!

I'm not familiar with the canon (sorry), but if you help me with your specifications, I can drop some deets and help drag your new blood throughout DWRP!

How fast is too fast? Does post numbers matter or is it how fast the plots are or how fast most people tag in a game? How frequently can you tag? Daily, every other day, less? Do you prefer to fire back and forth shorter tags without a lot of introspection or do you like something with a bit of (or a ton of) meat? Are there any genres or ratings you definitely aren't interested in? Any that really ping you?

Also, most games will claim to be friendly to those new to DW (or even journal) RP. However, there are a few that are known to be easy to integrate into with effort on your part, most notably

hollyheights (slice of life jamjar),

route_29 (pokemon jamjar), and

rekindleme (cute mostly slice of life jamjar). Route is a journal-based game, meaning you post your entries in the journals and can't reuse the journal in other games. Comm(unity)-based usually means you post in a community and can use a journal for multiple games (this is usually preferred and most games go with this format).

You might want to skim the resources (http://rpanons.dreamwidth.org/26116.html). You can also post over at

dear_mun or

dear_player if you don't mind breaking the fourth wall/meta-ing. There's

voicetest for voice test posts and

bakerstreet for memes, which you can either post or comment to.

Good luck!
