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 apologize if anything i said came across as accusatory or implying that you are definitely the problem, full stop. it wasn't my intention. if i engage in these sorts of conversations, i always try to cover the bases, because frequently those are the issues, and a lot of people aren't aware of how often they're being negative or how difficult the things they talk about are to incorporate into a two-way conversation. i've seen a lot of it on my own timeline with people i like but find difficult to engage for various reasons.

if you've already done all of the above and it's really not a matter of social awkwardness, then yeah. it's the people you have on your list and that you're all a poor fit for each other, which sucks but sometimes happens.

you also said that you were in games years ago, implying that you aren't now? that could be a huge contributing factor. a lot of people don't or won't engage with people they're not in games with. their socializing on plurk, even the stuff that seems non game related, is still tangentially game related in that they're cultivating ooc relationships to maintain ic cr. you may have people like this on your timeline.

anyway, again sorry if i ruffled any feathers in my response to you. i was hoping it would come across as just open ended questions and clearly came across a little more accusatory or judgmental than i meant to.

anon, you're fine. i didn't mean to single you out in particular and no feathers ruffled here. i thought i was replying under me to catch everyone, but your comment was the most thorough and i really do appreciate it. apologies friend.

you made a great list of things for me to check through and make double sure on. i don't believe i'm making it difficult for people to interact with and i'm not a screaming meany. i hear you on seeing plurks that are difficult to reply to, and no one wants to see negative stuff all the time. its frustrating though when others on the plurk list only have to go waah and everyone goes running and here, not a waah in sight and its all crickets. i'm in a couple of games now but they're small and that's probably the problem, i'm just not an ooc fit. icly is a different matter, which makes it more weird when i had no problems with getting chat on plurk previously

thanks for your replies anon, and yeah, they've actually helped me double check myself here. keep up the good work.
