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.

There's a massive learning curve for the OOC stuff but in my experience the community itself is pretty welcoming and willing to help if you reach out on plurk. OOC friendliness does not always translate into CR but you probably won't hurt for it if you put yourself out there.

I have two crossdressing/femboy requests!

1) Very silly attempted dub/noncon thread. A finds out that B, the cute girl he knows, is actually a crossdressing boy and tries to intimidate him with threats of violence and rape. Turns out that B is actually really into it. The worse he's treated the more turned on they both get until they just end up having fully consensual but very rough sex. Open to orientation play with this one.

2) A is approached in a club by B, a crossdresser who is intent on robbing A or gathering blackmail material on him. Somehow or another A already knows that B is a crossdresser, doesn't let his guard down, and manages to keep him for a long night of kinky sex.

For prompt 1 I would rather play the crossdresser! For prompt 2 I can play either party. Leave a sock if you're interested and we can hash out more details over PM.

Made an account for this little lady because it occurred to me how many time I've seen characters reference The Princess Bride in threads. I need to watch the movie again and concentrate on her a bit more before I toss her around but thinking I might bring her as a second character to my main game.

I would love to play out Seifer+Squall, Rinoa+squall, hell, even his dissidia bros like bartz, zidane or cloud+ squall.

I play Victoria chase, and I would absolutely love to play with a Nathan ( does anyone even play him anymore? ffff)

I'm also open to playing with anyone else from this series.

(Anonymous) 2016-06-14 04:19 pm (UTC)(link)
ok, real talk: why do you even want to play her? she has no personality other than generic sexy evil, she has no discernible history or relationships with other characters in the cast, she's pretty much a complete nonentity that does nothing but cackle evilly and wreck shit. what is the appeal of this particular character, out of the very large and diverse cast of sailor moon? even black lady is a more workable take on that trope. what do you even intend to do with her...?

Yeah, that's what I've started hashing out. The canon variances could make for some neat IC discussions/introspection, too.

I'm on my way to watch the Voyage one. Are there others you'd recommend? I'm fond of the Death Busters, clearly, and the Outer Sailors.

Depends on the character, I say. As someone who is a bit more programming-savvy (but not nearly to the extent of the character I play) I realize that not everyone wants to have to slog through a tag full of technical jargon. Luckily, playing a character who's the type to be all "you wouldn't understand if I tried to explain it to you anyway" really helps, and it could help for you too!

If you do have a character who's a bit more generous with their explanations, then you've got a bit more work to do. Still, I think that the most important part is to understand that good programmers typically have a very logical approach to problem solving, and it's the mindset that you should work on showing in writing. You should be able to find basic deets on various problem-solving strategies just by searching "problem solving computer science." In short, your character is generally going to look at a big problem as a series of smaller problems to be tackled.

Honestly, don't try to be super specific with your terminology unless you have to. The broader you can make it, the more basically-correct it can be (even if it's at the expense of maybe coming off "less expert sounding.") If you're worried, just put a disclaimer in the subject line that it isn't your area of expertise so you don't get someone being a dick and ICly correcting your character who should know better. Try and watch some documentaries on network security (I'm pretty sure there are some on Netflix) and those should give you a layman's list of terms that you can look further into on your own time and drop into your tags as appropriate. Unfortunately, I don't personally know many textual resources online that aren't meant for people in the field.

A lot is really going to depend on the character. Computers is a huge field and no one is going to know everything. So concentrate mostly on what they seem to know well.

Since you mentioned programming and digital security, those are two good starts. For digital security, I'd recommend this site to start: https://www.allclearid.com/personal/resource-center/

That's a online identity protection service and they have a good blog with resources and basic info on security that is written in a way that even the average user can understand. That's going to get into not only the how to protect yourself sort of deal (which is always useful) but also into the whys and hows on how this stuff happens. Anyone into security is going to know something of how thieves think because that is key to protection. A big idea with security is to make it so you aren't an easy target. This is more on the personal side though, if you are going to need to look into security on a corporate side that's a more tricky beast, but as long as you know basic terms you should be okay for RP. Definitely good stuff to learn even if RP isn't involved since security is important.

As far as programming goes, keep in mind that HTML is programming, so you already have some basics. If your character uses specific programming languages, try and learn something about those. If there isn't anything specific, I'd advise to try and learn a bit about CSS. CSS is a nice addition to knowledge of HTML and can be useful to you and learning some basics on it will give you some more in depth knowledge on programming and how programmers have to think. Try just learning some basics on it and see if you can play around with tweaking some code for your journal or plurk layouts. That will give you a better idea of what your character does and it's good practical knowledge as well. Even stuff like changing around your color scheme teaches a bit about how the code works.

Good luck to you! It's a complex and vast topic, but at least there are some things that are good to learn that you'll find here. It's never a bad idea to learn more about computers since we all use them and that is a valuable skill in life too.

From the 90s, I was impressed she instantly set up all these defensive measures when she first took control. She recognized her fatigue/weakness and didn't play around. There was also her quickness to use things to her advantage (Sailor Moon believing Hotaru was alive, Souichi still seeing his daughter in her).

The manga and reboot gave me their life source dying, her apparent relationship with and devotion to Pharaoh 90, the brief appreciation of her cohorts efforts, her exclamation that there was nothing left for them to fear, and her hate of her human body.

I'll have to fill in a lot of blanks, but it's the same with any character. As for my plans, I mean to throw her around Dear Mun/Player as a test drive, and depending how that goes, will probably turn to memes. Games are 90% out of the question.
