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.

And I bet you'd be whining is all everyone said was sorry because ~they obviously don't care if that's all they can say~.

Instead of, you know, giving more than just a sorry.

But sure. Keep whining, attention whore. We all know you just want asspats.

if you honestly interpret someone trying to be optimistic in response to you unloading your problems on them as them implicitly telling you to quit your bitching, you need therapy

1. i never expected anyone to read my mind in the original conversation that inspired my initial comment

2. this thread is chocked to the brim with projection and overreaction

3. i haven't denounced anyone and "it could be worse" is the exact opposite of positive thinking because it blatantly emphasizes the negative/the negatives that you could be experiencing rather than your current ones

like i know that what i'm complaining about is the THING to say and a lot of people do it, but that doesn't change the fact that it's actually kind of a messed up thing

everyone complains about horror games being overdone but do we actually still have any?

i think you're really overestimating the amount that the average person cares about other people's problems

(Anonymous) 2015-07-18 09:21 pm (UTC)(link)
isn't tlv still one? haven? carvaka's sort of horror/smut.

i remember when i first came in, there was a huge amount of horror, or what it felt like. body horror, psych horror. games were either horror or au or memloss. not bad concepts but i think people are just worn out from them. anytime one genre takes the lead for a bit, people seem to need a cool down time from them and they still stay foremost in people's minds for a long while.

guys stop bringing your problems here

stop expecting commiseration

this is a comm full of autists who struggle with even the most basic empathetic processes you will not get the validation you are looking for

try the above link next time

(Anonymous) 2015-07-18 09:25 pm (UTC)(link)
barely? i think the general consensus is that it's too difficult to maintain a horror game as a horror game in the puppies and coffee shop climate of current dwrp, so no one really bothers anymore

i think cerealia and midnight syndicate are both advertised as having horror elements, aren't they? they aren't strictly horror games though.

I don't think that's what OP's talking about.

Prepping for the worst case scenario CAN be helpful. Sometimes it helps with anxiety because you confirm that you can handle the worst consequences, or at least prepare to handle them (or maybe the "worst" consequence isn't even that bad at all). And then even if something bad does happen, it's often not the WORST thing, so it's not so bad.

On the other hand, being told "well your situation COULD be worse" in a way that it's not going to be and is irrelevant to you is just dismissal and off-putting. Like telling me "You could have no job at all!" when I'm frustrated with a deadend job or something is just like yes, asshole, I am aware I have a paycheck, it still isn't covering everything I need. I'm pretty sure that's what OP meant.
