When the cat masturbates its chin

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.

"i saw 4-5 people on my plurk line literally credit wank for their dropping" is overdramatizing it how exactly

4-5 people dropping because of the wank isn't a big dramatic death knell for a game with over 200 players, especially since there's usually an increase of drops at this moment due to AC. especially when there's over 40 new apps coming in.

"not to say that all of the drops are drama-related, but i think it's fair to say that at least a piece of them are"

i did not call it a death knell or imply that it was. all i meant was that its not really fair to chalk it all up to AC when multiple anons are confirming that a fair chunk havent been. there's still folks who might drop for wank-related reasons but won't be upfront about it oocly, so as to avoid drama.

this is far from the end of the world, but its still had at least some tangible impact on the game. i get that anons are sensationalizing the fuck out of it, but i dont know that it should be waved off like that.

tbh most of the droppers from wank that I've seen were friends of sean and Jan, most of the players I know are adopting a wait and watch stance.

the ones i know of weren't friends with either of them, it was purely disgust/unease about the mod fuckery that drove them off

so yeah, not game-killing, maybe, but it is worrisome that this has driven off so many players, many of them long-time members of the game
