I'm bad at this

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. Your unfunny, forced memes also fall under this rule.
Do not treat this comm like your personal therapist. Threads about nonfictional suicide, self injury, rape, and abuse will be deleted. There are better resources out there for you.
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.
Shut up about Tumblr. If it's not a discussion about Tumblr RP it will be deleted.

some adults do fine but they have to be adults who'd be willing to engage with the teenage casts. the kotetsu from tiger and bunny who recently dropped had a bunch of solid cr for that reason. all my characters are 'kid' aged but i'd like to have more adults around and have actively sought adult cr with all my characters. of course, this thread would have you think i'm a giant lying liar who lies but w/e.

i think one thing that hasn't really been mentioned in the thread is that the adult characters who seem to do better (in my experience) are the ones who take the 'parent' label at least half-seriously. it gives them a reason to get involved in the lives of the teenagers and their friends, but they can also be teachers or even bosses and employ the munchkins. adults and teens don't normally socialize together so in a straight up sol setting (outside of events that randomly stick characters together) there needs to be a reason for them to interact. if these aren't ideal places to start then yeah, it might not be the right game for you, but if these are things you can work with then maybe try to get in on the end of this month's tdm or come into the next one.
