rpanons | You're all idiots except for me

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.

maybe there could be some compromise with places with a cap?

the only thing i can think of is having different app phases, so to speak. so, if you had a cap of 50, you could have 5 different periods where 10 apps can be submitted. e.g. 10 at 12am GMT, 10 at 6am GMT, etc.

but that would be pretty complicated and require mods to be able to open/close apps at those times.

yeah, that sounds like it would work, but would be way too much work for the mods. and i don't want to make it more complex for any mod team when they're already putting in a lot of work, they shouldn't have to bend over backwards just to accommodate me.

i've put in a request on the snowblind faq to maybe move to a bit earlier since the game hasn't opened yet so it might not be too complicated to do so. but if the answer's a no, then that's fine too since it's the mod's prerogative to do it whenever's easiest for them.

i don't really think a staggered app cap would work, it might garner complaints of favouritism anyway, since it would seem like europe=anons were getting first shot at any character etc.

yeah, it's why i can't imagine it ever working. the last thing a game needs is more work for the mods. another option might be to change the time the apps open each round - February opens at 5am GMT, April at 5pm GMT or something. but that just means that waiting to app takes longer and someone would definitely complain about the character they wanted to app being apped by someone else during a round they weren't awake for.

i feel for mods, so much. rpers are assholes.

it would still be more work for the mods, but what if there was someone specifically assigned to posting apps for people who couldn't be around at the time? they wouldn't have anything at all to do with the rest of the app process, they could post apps in the order they receive them, maybe along with the reason the person apping couldn't do it (just vaguely)

idk. it would still bring complaints of favoritism but i can't think of anything that wouldn't tbh. we get those even with the systems we have now.
