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.

eh. if you close at a certain time, you close at a certain time. not before then. suck it up. it's what you signed on for when you took the job.

-says a waitress who gets the complaint. still. it is what it is, and 15 before closing isn't closed.

OR

3. Consider that this game is not made for you personally and go find or make another one? Not every game has to cater to every player.

tbh, starbucks is one of the better retail jobs i've had, but experiences can vary from place to place of course. benefits are great as long as you can take advantage of them, which already puts em way above a lot of other retail positions.

i live in a very affluent area and so the customer base is pretty much entitlement central, but i've never hated it. if nothing else, some of the stuff i've seen has given me some good stories and i look back on it more in a "haha wow, that shit was fucked up" sort of way.

I've never met a random player from Mal'ganis who doesn't vastly (and vocally) overrate their own skill at playing the game.

Well, they probably assumed that they were boring you and decided not to waste your time any further. If you still had an interest in tagging the person perhaps a better thing would have been to just say you weren't feeling it anymore and see about handwaving an end so you guys can do something else.

frankly, it's never come up before. i tend to do my tags in the order i receive them (unless i'm phone tagging before i fall asleep or something).

You really don't get it do you. The hobby has gotten more and more toxic and has burned out most of its former mods so that the pool of potentials is much smaller. You're right that people are toxic in more than just in the anoncomms. All that means is that they're toxic on the anoncomms and on plurk and in game communications. That just means they're toxic everywhere.

The fact that you think rpers being entitled pissbabies is an inevitability and don't see anything wrong with it being an inevitability is exactly what's wrong. It doesn't have to be an inevitability. People have control over it being an inevitability because they have control over their own actions. They can keep it from being an inevitability by just not behaving like children.

I may not be good mod material but there's hardly any other mod material left. There aren't many people lining up behind me to create a sex game or any games at all. The more whiny and entitled dwrpers are, the less people will mod, because modding is entirely optional. They can go ahead and keep making that inevitable but that just means they won't get games now.

lack of no =/= yes. lack of no has never equaled yes with ANY sort of kink. what's your damage?

if all they ever wanted from the other player was a ship, then they never should have started a thread in the first place without asking about it first.

starting a thread with the assumption you'll get a ship out of it and then dropping when you don't is fucking entitled, yes.

Trust me, all these people responding to you are not the ones having trouble judging tone.

Re: da

(Anonymous) 2016-06-17 02:48 am (UTC)(link)
if it did, do you think that's how you'd respond? because frankly i don't know anyone who'd be that blunt about why they're prioritizing one thread over another. in dwrp culture on the whole that is just asking for trouble and a grudgewanker.

people always think they want someone to be that honest with them until they actually are. then you can see the ass devastation from space.

mal'ganis has been the designated Big Name Assholes hometown since release day. all of the big uber raid guilds formed on it, they attracted all of the wannabe ~hardcore~ players to the server, and as we all know, people that take video games super-seriously are always in their own class of dick.

(Anonymous) 2016-06-17 03:07 am (UTC)(link)
you think this is toxic? honest question here. we as a community have calmed way the fuck down in relation to toxicity and aggression since people have routinely been called out and had to deal with consequences for their actions. look at wankgate. rules have been instituted. how often do namedrops even actually happen over there anymore. people come here to try to be spammy fucks and even that's getting turned down. the ~toxicity of rp has lessened dramatically from the epic site dropping/home calling/life ruining that used to happen before. we're getting older. the amount of fucks we have to give has dropped.

i never said there wasn't anything wrong with the entitled asshole behavior, but people are people. if you think at any point you can float through life or work or even a hobby without running into a fucking tool, you're highly mistaken. none of this has gone into anything regarding namecalling until people started getting mad that there was contradictions in the idea thread. frankly, i'm surprised as fuck people are this salty over it when even recently in a lot of game idea threads, ideas have been picked apart with more vitriol and salt than 'nah, this is too eudio.'

if you want to look at today's players as whiny and entitled, you clearly haven't been here long enough to know what those words actually mean in reference to rpers. if you have, check yourself, because 'hey, i don't like this' isn't anywhere on the same level as second or kayvin or lock or jenn or any other number of genuine wankers that throw epic shitfits and chase people out of a game for 'reserve sniping' or putting an app in legitimately before their buttbuddy or whatever other bullshit is actually entitled shitbaby behavior.

like i've been saying this whole time, do what you want. op can do what they want. everyone can do what they want. people will join or they won't. but pointing out that 'hey, people likely aren't going to join this because it's kind of just like eudio' isn't entitled titfitting. this degree of defensiveness is ridiculous. i mean, have fun not making games? do what you want. there's new sex games that open frequently. they just don't take off because they're either same old, run by wankers, or badly put together. your game isn't/wasn't guaranteed to succeed just because you were going to make it, so stop with the 'look at what you did. now everyone's suffering because of you'.

you know why games are dying? because mods put work and effort into things and people hang off to see how it does before joining, hence no one joining and the game failing, or the game doesn't appeal to a wider audience and it stays tiny and closes. so the mods blame the players (and in the first scenario, they have every right to), and we go in this roundabout blame circle that gets no one anywhere.

exactly. 'i don't want to play something i'm not going to truly enjoy'. then maybe just state straight up all you want is ships and that's all you'll play because that's all you enjoy. then you wouldn't have 'wasted' time playing with someone that wouldn't try something they didn't want to do.

... as in the Weezer song? man it's weird to find people these days that know or care about the Pinkerton album. it's like one of those things music critics always praise but no one actually bothers to listen to.
