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.

are you really losing out on anything if you're getting ignored by assholes who believe everything they read on wg, though? i'd think they'd be doing you a favor.

did you just miss treegate entirely or

everyone reads wg. even the people who hate it and everything it stands for read it because it's the only way to be sure some gang of psychotic internet obsessives isn't stirring shit about you behind your back

i love how you're tossing out old instances which, btw, was universally condoned as far as wg's response to a troll (and the site as a whole) as some kind of proof. that went around because of the content, with people outright stating, 'i don't actually read wg, but someone told me this was (thing) and so i did and omg'.

now, we know that most of the 'i don't usually read wg, but' are lies, but there were people i know that never went to anon comms that saw treegate, so that's the shittiest of all shitty examples.

not everyone reads wg. not everyone wants to. not everyone needs to. but if something big like that happens? it gets linked around.

are you sure you didn't miss treegate?

i love how you try to dismiss it as a one-off instance and somehow maintain the fantasy that all of dwrp just paid attention that one time but the rest of the time they don't care honestly!

i mean, do you just live in your own little world? your perfect world where our numbers are still here and no one cares about wg but assclowns and namedrops don't have any effect at all on people's rp prospects? is that the world you live in? because if it is, fuck, i've got money, sign me up for a ticket. i'd like to live in that world.

unfortunately that's not the world me or the rest of dwrp have to live in

oh, right, it's only a minority that cares about wankgate. that must be why almost every game that's tried to open this year has gotten wanked out of existence, and most of the remainder are on life support.

if you think wg has anything to do with the games not taking off... i have a bridge you might be interested in.

i love how the people pissed off about dragon called can't shut up about it yet every chance they get they swear that wg had nothing to do with their game closing, their mod was just sucked into the land of oz!

i'm sorry, was a natural disaster supposed to be your proof or something?

Re: da

(Anonymous) 2016-05-24 07:06 am (UTC)(link)
as excuses go, "got sucked into a tornado" ranks up there with "drunk at a party" on the believability scale

and even if she really was transported to oz, i presume she still has her phone. why would this kill the game and not just delay it?

Re: da

(Anonymous) 2016-05-24 07:23 am (UTC)(link)
because so far no one's heard back from her. meaning she could be injured. meaning that a game on the internet is the last thing she's concerning herself with. or she could have family injured. or dealing with a destroyed home.

she lives in florida. around the time she went mia, there was a pretty big storm/tornado. do the m... i'm not saying that word. but do it.

Re: sa

(Anonymous) 2016-05-24 07:31 am (UTC)(link)
in this age of smartphones and tablets it's still fairly inconceivable to me that she just went mia because of a storm with no word at all

i used to live in a state that got hit pretty regularly with hurricanes. had to tough out some pretty bad, city-evacuating ones, and not once was i ever put out of touch for weeks. if i lost power, i just walked over to a friend who got it back (or one who had a power generator, they were more common than you'd think)

Re: sa

(Anonymous) 2016-05-24 07:34 am (UTC)(link)
again, you're saying it like 'getting in touch' with the internet is her main priority right now. lot of worst case scenarios crop up that could be a good explanation why she can't, or isn't. she seemed really keen on getting the game up and going, so i just don't see it being something she randomly decided to drop for no reason. i could see maybe handing everything over and fucking off, but no word or anything with things left hanging for this long? i'm more concerned than i am petty.

Re: sa

(Anonymous) 2016-05-24 07:35 am (UTC)(link)
how long has she been mia exactly? that's a pretty good indicator

Re: sa

(Anonymous) 2016-05-24 07:43 am (UTC)(link)
i don't know. you'd have to ask the mods. i didn't even know she was missing until it came up in a plurk.

Re: da

(Anonymous) 2016-05-24 07:26 am (UTC)(link)
i'm going with option d, "none of the above"

is there even any news evidence to corroborate this tornado story?

Re: da

(Anonymous) 2016-05-24 07:32 am (UTC)(link)
seems to be "the word" in the plurks i've seen. it wasn't in the update post, but they seem to be hoping she'll come back. i think if she's been gone for half a month or more with no updates, that's not a good sign.

Re: da

(Anonymous) 2016-05-24 07:40 am (UTC)(link)
if i knew the exact date she went missing i could probably get you something, but as another floridanon, someone gets a tornado pretty much every week once hurricane season hits. there was one six days ago and one on may 9 (probably the one the mod was in danger from if it's been a couple weeks). if there's no big news about it it's because a tornado in florida isn't big news.

forgot to add: just in the county where i live we get 2 or 3 tornado warnings a year.

Re: da

(Anonymous) 2016-05-24 07:45 am (UTC)(link)
as she seems to have been gone longer than six days, it could have been the may 9 one. the mod plurk posts seem to have been from one of the other mods, so i don't know exactly how long she's been gone, but i think that lines up with when she stopped being around.

Re: da

(Anonymous) 2016-05-24 07:54 am (UTC)(link)
hmm. i might have been wrong, because i can't find solid info for a tornado in florida on may 9. but there was two deadly ones in oklahoma that day, so it's also possible that news is just getting overshadowed (i'm not invested enough to dig past a couple of pages on google). or it's possible that dragoncalled mod is in oklahoma, not florida, or that there was another tornado somewhere around that date that i haven't found news on. idk. the point being that, while anon above isn't wrong to ask for concrete evidence of the tornado existing, that evidence may not exist or be easy to find whether it really happened or not

anon that ayrt replied to

this isn't about dragon called. i don't give a shit either way about dragon called. there's a dozen other games this shit has happened to this year.
