ゴメンナサイ

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 don't judge you for this, anon, but it makes me sad because it's the kind of thing that there doesn't seem to be any good disclosure for.

Like I start RPing with someone on memes, really enjoy threading together, characters have lots of chemistry, lots of potential for smutty threads, everything's going great until...

I somehow meet the player on plurk or something and get to chatting and we really get along and become good friends and that's great and all, but now every time there's chemistry between our characters that might be heading towards smut they drop the thread. All our CR has just fizzled because threads keep getting dropped just when they start to take off.

Meanwhile I know they're smutting it up with people they don't know personally. But with me? No dice.

I've had this happen and I wouldn't want to give up the friendship, but on the RP front it feels bad, man.

I mean, the character in question is an actual Nazi.

(Anonymous) 2016-07-04 12:03 pm (UTC)(link)
So crit them? Talk to the mods? Name and shame? You can talk about it all you want here but saying vaguely there are cliques isn't helping much. The problem players will keep being problems if no one specifically calls them out.

i get what you're saying, anon, but this is not the hill you want to die on. rip van winkle from hellsing is kind of skeevy by herself, considering she's literally composed of the author's fetishes and moe ideals.

it's not like there's respectful material there to begin with,

you seriously believe this?

when is the last time someone did a mass shooting who didn't plan to immediately kill themselves afterwards? these people don't give a shit if they die in the process of this, they don't give a shit if the people around them have guns or not. They choose schools because they feel they are the places that wronged them. They choose gay nightclubs because they're homophobic and closeted. They choose whatever space is going to offer them the most victims and the most press coverage.

because it suits the character in question?

you haven't even adequately explained how it's terrible and wrong. is it glorifying the nazis? is it insensitive to the crowd of ww2 survivors hanging around dwrp?

maybe whoever's playing rip van winkle just likes how it looks, god knows she wouldn't be the first person to think the nazis were stylish

driveby anon to this, but if you think only ww2 survivors can be traumatized or offended by a swastika, you're not really up on your racism, are you? you think nazis are the only ones to ever use it? neonazis? kkk? which is prevalent in today's society? hello? ringing a bell?

it's classess and tasteless in a public forum. see: the nazi obscure ebophile character that got raked across the coals for existing.

this comment is weird because while there's no ww2 survivors rping on dw i am positive there are jewish rpers whose families were affected by the holocaust

anyway

it's tacky and tryhard more than anything, and if anyone's uncomfortable seeing it itd be a dick move to tell them to get over it

honestly? the kkk and neonazis have no societal power. (other far-right nationalistic groups may, but none of them are quite at the level of consciously taking on nazi stylings.) living on eggshells because of groups with no power seems silly at best

yeah, sure, i guess

but it seems to me that there's nothing about a swastika that's particularly offensive compared to everything about rip van winkle

the author of hellsing is really weird

and look at her death scene

(the ova version is worse, she's basically blushing and orgasming as she's being devoured)

and her uniform she wears in the prequel

are you at all familiar with rip van winkle? if anything i'd consider swastikas an appropriate warning tag for the shit that hellsing gets up to.

we have cases of terrorists/crazy people trying to shoot up heavily guarded events already. they failed in this instance, but that's because of good security, not some grandma packing a .44 in her purse.

but honestly, and this is just me, even if it were the case that everybody having guns would drastically reduce the rate of mass attacks, i'm not sure that's the kind of world i want to live in. it sounds terrifying, knowing that everybody is packing heat.
