Trapped in the city of one loo

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.

Calm down some, anon. I never said it is anyone's responsibility to fix Ryslig but the playerbase, but simply pointing out how no one can pick out the "sane players" versus the toxic ones going solely by anon threads. It's even difficult for some of the players, especially if they are trying to avoid the drama and solely play their own thing, which is what most of us try to do. Also, how could I know if the anon asking for lists of sane players is in the game or not?

That said, if you are seeing positive representation of the game in player plurks, I count that as a plus. There is not much else to reflect on games aside from the games themselves and anon comms, correct? And looking at the last RPA Ryslig thread, it was rather tame. No comment on the WG thread, however.

I am not saying some points are not valid, and I do not fault anyone for staying clear of the game if they have doubts. Many of the threads here have gotten out of hand. But it is a small percentage of anons yelling loudly on vent communities, and there may be smoke, but it is mostly coming from annoying cigarette butts than an entire forest fire.

It is likely a mistake trying to defend my game anonymously, but I have no way of telling those who are genuinely curious or concerned about the game from those who are here solely hoping it burns. I will say if any other anons are curious, please give it a chance and you will be pleasantly surprised. Is there a vocal, aggravating minority? Absolutely. Are they easy to avoid and have fun regardless? Yes, I promise you.

If it turns out to be too much, there is no shame in dropping, and I am glad games like Halloween Town are popping up to provide alternatives. But Ryslig is no where near the shit show many anons would like people to believe, and I hope the current playerbase, and future players, continue to mold it uphill.
