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.

If you think being gay or poor is a lifestyle choice you need to educate yourself.

You are not socially acceptable Phase. You will never be socially acceptable because a supreme court decision is never being repealed.

You are that cranky old neighbor no one is comfortable with on the block because they live 50 years in the past and rant about teh minoruhtees taking away their jobs, how black people are all thugs just waiting to shoot you and how teh gays are corrupting family values while you polish your gun on the porch.

if i meet anyone irl who alludes to being an anime fan, i approach with caution

speaking as an anime fan myself

there's just too high a chance they're a neck/legbearded weirdo with no social skills, who'll latch onto you like you should be besties just because you both happen to like anime shit

it's happened too many times before, i ain't taking my chances

It definitely helps to find a starting point to approach new CR, especially with lesser known canons.

There's a 25 character cap so who cares? It's too tiny to be relevant.

The way the FAQ was written is what turned me off. It feels like I'm 14 and on LJ reading it. I don't care about your perspective of point of view and I know there's a thin line between "professional" in modding and not but there are some things that just don't belong in a game's FAQ post.

The character/player limit thing is weird too. Who has a limit of 25 players but they can play 3 characters each? Why not make it 50 players and 1 character each or just have a hard limit of a certain number of characters and say you might make exceptions if you can handle more or get another mod somewhere along the line?

>6 anime characters from the same series or western children's cartoons (MLP, SU, certain Disney stuff) or series with a lot of OTT, immature fans (Homestuck, Undertale) and I nope out of there

It's not worth it, it's never worth it. Too often my hero older guy/girl ends up as the de facto dad/mom figure constantly pulling their asses out of the fire, being the brunt of REBELLIOUS TEEN ANGST or source of constant comfort, and players getting upset that my 30 year old character might prefer to make friends his/her own age :/

iunno, LA characters just flat out don't interest me. I don't want to play off them. There isn't any value judgment or stereotype dictating this, I just don't like playing against LA characters. Same goes for western comic book characters, really, but they're pretty rare except in very specific games built for them.

this. i don't care whether i know any of the characters in the game or not as long as the plot and setting look fun and like they'd be a good fit for my character.

animanga totally gets to dominate multiple games and rudely ignore people playing characters from non-japanese canons but suggest one western media or la only game and animu fans collectively shit the bed

so fucking done with the screaming and crying

better. and i've had other players of the character tell me they thought my version was the best.

i wouldn't put a cap on it because all that does is make people feel like they have to write that much for their app to be considered acceptable. in my years of modding i can count on two hands the number of apps i've received that had personality sections longer than 1k and most of them actually weren't padded with a ton of filler. i've found that most people tend to end up in the 500-800 word mark if left to their own devices.

players getting upset that my 30 year old character might prefer to make friends his/her own age :/

this chaps my ass and it's indicative of how immature players like that are, thinking it wouldn't be seen as weird for someone that much older to befriend a bunch of, say, 14yo teenagers

i wonder if players like that aren't like those fans I see sometimes at the anime cons here, still 30/35/40 years old wearing cat ears, a leash & collar and a soiled shirt, spouting dead tumblr memes and trying desperately to get chummy with the horde of awkward teen girls

it's not cute, it's bizarre that someone that age would constantly seek deep friendships and approval from someone so young :/

there was Institute, too, but it was subject to a very different form of trolling, with some wild anon accusing the game of being nothing but yuri neckbeards because of that fact.

my car breaking down and forcing me to start walking to and from work was probably the best thing to happen to me health- and weight-wise. even though it's fixed now, i still walk to work and back just because the regular exercise makes me feel energized.

the fact that you'd be turned off from games with more than 5-6 or a decent sized cast in them is what's really eyerollworthy.

ah, every response to kilgrave after jessica jones' release. sooooo many "if you like him as a villain you're disgusting/if I see someone cosplaying him at a con I'm reporting him/her to staff because they support rape!!!!!"

I'd care less if the people in question I've heard this from didnt RP characters just as, if not more so, horrendous than kilgrave, but "my sweet bae" logic applies
