Swaddled in an unwashed towel

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.

yes you used OP right -- it means "original poster," so the thread starter

as for your question, maybe start out with memes first before jumping into games?

as for your question, maybe start out with memes first before jumping into games? <username=bakerstreet> is one of the meme communities. memes being strings-free RP without the pressure of AC (activity check -- most games require you to have a certain amount of comments or game posts a month in order to stay in the game) since it can be overwhelming when you're just starting out.

another option is <user name=dear_player>, though that's a little meta and not really indicative of how RP works here. Dear Player is as if your character is speaking to you/aware of your existence, which is a kind of fourth wall breaking that doesn't occur in games. still, a lot of people use it for voice testing (trying out a character's "voice" or personality).

unfortunately, a lot of games i would suggest for a newbie are either closing or on their last legs, so i don't have many recs there but maybe someone else does.
