You sound fat

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.

Here's one I could find. Services for male victims of abuse, especially at the hands of a woman, seriously suck. Men are far more likely to be homeless or die as victims of violent crime, but there's so little energy given to preventing both.

i'm currently reading republic of thieves and toying with the idea of picking up jean

i'd love to try my hand at locke because his personality fascinates me but i know i'm not nearly smart or witty enough. also, jean's aggressive caring has been amusing me greatly.

no? a small minority of tinfoil hat wearing lunatics blame her for cobain's death. the rest of us just think she's a shitty person.

just because people are innocent of one thing doesn't make them flawless fucking angels.

video game subreddits have actually done a great job trying to purge gators and the like, or at least purge their rhetoric, from discussion since the majority of users are absolutely sick of it by now.

two best friends/super best friends play

i like having background noise while i'm on the computer and they're the best lpers i've found so far. all the other popular ones i've tried have been too obnoxious. plus i've ended up watching lps of games i wouldn't normally be interested in and ended up buying them to play myself based on their videos.

anon, name me one trans headcanon that doesn't vastly miss what it means to be trans and is backed up entirely by gender essentialist bullshit

this stuff is harmful because these people don't stop at projecting these ideas on to fictional characters. they do it to real people.

(Anonymous) 2016-05-15 10:11 pm (UTC)(link)
i understand that a lot of people say "this character = trans because they fall into these gendered stereotypes" but what about people who headcanon characters as trans because they want to? that's how my trans headcanons work, although i don't go insisting my headcanons are canon or push them on other people.

team pads all the way, usually a one to one and a half bumper packs a time. sucks to have minimum 7-day periods AND be heavy for most of it

sometimes i wonder about using a cup bc so many people swear by them but the whole idea just kind of grosses me out. it feels somehow... idk, unhealthy? to have all the blood just sitting there instead of coming away cleanly. also i always wonder how you cope in public bathrooms, bc i'd want to rinse it out before shoving it back up there but i can't just waltz out of the stall to rinse out my bloody vagina cup in front of everyone.

yes the last thing someone unstable and grieving needs is sympathy

it's not about trans people headcanoning trans characters as trans.

it's about a bunch of stupid teenagers who don't understand what being trans means promoting gender essentialist bullshit and basically bullying ACTUALLY trans people for calling them out on it. unfortunately, 90% of teenagers on there think 'i'm a girl but i like wearing pants more than dresses! that means i'm trans!' is what makes people transgender.

Yeah, that's a good point. Really, the "Super High School Level/Ultimate" thing is just a designation by Hope's Peak.

And one of the main themes of Dangan Ronpa is about people being more than just the talents attached to them.

Yeah, that sub is a shithole. For a place where the general air is that they're better than everyone else, you'd kind of expect them to rise above the lowest common denominator a bit, but nope.

what's another mass-rp site that isn't... f-list or tumblr, tho?

f-list is a big waste of time for anything serious, and tumblr anon culture is more insane, invasive and nasty than most wank on wg. i had a friend who was harassed for months, in both her ic and ooc askbox even when she turned anon off, for not adhering to a tumblr-popular headcanon with her character.

Yeah...no, there's more to engaging writing than if you're just IC as a character or not. Being IC as a character is the goal, but I'd argue that you can have a wonderful grasp on a character's voice and motivations and just be shit poor at writing actions with hooks, shoving out hooks, reacting to hooks given to you, and moving a scene forward in general. I can think of one thread in which someone reacted to my hook in the most boring, soul-sucking way, and it wasn't because they didn't have a good grasp of the character's voice. It was because they just ignored all of the interesting possibilities and took the thread in the most boring, obvious direction possible.

OP, identify what makes the character boring besides 'you're boring' and then crit them on that. Are they bad at the character's voice? Do they go light on the description so you tend to get sentences but no real action? Are they bad at reacting to what you thread with them? Are they poor at giving you things to react to?

First of all I'm SUPER EXCITED for this game - I've been keeping an eye on it for a while and this is my first time speaking up. Thank you for making something so involved and so innovative!

I do have a few questions, and forgive me if they've been answered somewhere before and this is repetitive:

1) Will there be a cast cap? Will there be a limit to how many characters from any cast that one individual can play? Will there be a limit to how many characters one individual can play at any given time?

2) Are you going to address R'hllor and the followers of the Lord of Light at all? Specifically, the mechanic in the ASOIAF universe that revives certain individuals from the dead.

Thank you, and again this is all very exciting!!

Hiyo folks! I am looking for a safe-for-work game with a low AC (like, under 20 comments a month) that accepts canon alternate universes. Like a character from the book adaptation of a video game series...

Which is, incidentally, the type of character I plan to app: Charlie, from the Five Nights at Freddy's novel. So uh yeah, if there's any games that fit these criteria, let me know please!
