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.

Honestly, it's a behavior pattern that I think is very common for many BNFs. They let a little popularity get to their heads and then basically start thinking their shit don't stink and treat people horribly. When I saw all the CC wank hit FW all I could think was that it seemed like they must factory produce these people en masse or something.

It was like walking through a Twilight Zone portal into a backwards dimension where people were incapable of acting like normal logical human beings.

I just hated it. I still have no regrets about dropping all that popularity and walking away. I stopped focusing on fandom stuff and focused more on my schoolwork in college and that's something I definitely don't regret because I did well in school and have a nice career now. I also learned to cut out people like that and surround myself with nice, decent people as friends both online and off.

Behavior is one thing but the "awful YA book" is pretty specific.

it's worse right now because i'm in a shit mood, but it's lowkey always there. i never let myself hold these snubs against anyone or even react to them outwardly because i know in my head they're not real, but it'd be great if i could stop feeling it in the first place.

[community profile] empatheias is a great game for character development and actually one of the key points of the game.

Re: former fandom BNF

No, I was actually pretty young at the time, younger than a lot of the BNFs I was hanging with who were in their late 20s and even 30s. IIRC the fics I wrote started getting traction when I was about 18 and I think I was only about 19-20 when I bailed. Most of it's long since taken down so I can't even check dates now. It all happened when I was in college and I was living on campus without a car so I really didn't have a way of meeting up with anyone and then by the time I graduated and had a car, I already had backed away from it all.

That was another thing that made it all so surreal. I was actually fairly young, closer to the age of a lot of the teen fans in our little crossover fandom than the ages of my fellow BNFs, and these people throwing tantrums were close to 10 years my senior, if not older. I think one of them was even 40 so she was twice my age.

That was part of why I felt like I couldn't handle it. I just wasn't emotionally equipped to navigate everything at that age.

as hard as it can be I'd recommend talking to people and clearing the air

I have pretty bad anxiety but being more communicative with people has helped shut up some of the more irrational thoughts

I never said it was YA. It was a fantasy book but it wasn't YA. And it wasn't HP fandom.

A lot of fanfic BNFs hold delusions of being big shot original authors, and a lot of people who write fic share original writing. That's how it's always been. She wasn't even the only one in that group that shared original writing, she was just the one that flipped the most at crit.

I like it more than most of 6B of the walking dead. Which probably isn't saying that much since I hated that. I honestly went into this show without many expectations, not expecting another TWD so maybe that's why I'm actually kind of enjoying it so far.

Most of the characters are irritating but I've really warmed up to Nick the last few episodes and Victor is fascinating enough for me to want to find out what his deal is.

It's not great but I think it has potential which is why I'm sticking it out. That and I have no hbo to watch GoT...

Rule #1: Realize that everyone has these feelings to some degree or another, especially in a place like this because DWRP is filled to the brim with insecure, anxious social rejects. They're as scared of you as you are of them.

And it's never going to go away completely for the same reason, but working around it is something you can practice and gain more confidence from. Encourage yourself to speak up, open up, and make friendly with people that you feel irrationally snubbed by, and over time it'll get easier.
