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 really wish you had shipped our characters or at least had been willing to give it a chance with an au. when you said you didn't and implied you never would, that's why i dropped our thread.

it sucks because you play your character really well and the chemistry was there but since you weren't open to it, i ain't wasting my time on threads i won't be able to enjoy completely. sorry.

i wouldn't say pushy, but definitely entitled. they only want to play with someone for ships and when they can't because someone doesn't want to, fuck cr? no one has to be 'willing to give it a chance'. they sound like every dudebro that wants a date with a girl. 'she could have at least given me a chance'. no.

dropping a thread instead of ship pushing on someone who wasn't open to it?

oh yeah, that's super entitled and pushy. totally.

entitled in that they only want to play for a ship and 'you should have just tried the au', which means that it's not even canon, so not everyone's going to want to.

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.

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.

this pretty much. it's not at all wrong to want to play only ships. i mostly play just for ships. but if you don't communicate this and then get pissy at the other person for not wanting to ship, that's... the definition of entitlement.

dropping a thread you no longer want to do isn't pissy or entitled. you guys got this shit totally backwards.

ship pushing is fucking entitled. dropping a thread that you no longer enjoy is the same thing as dropping a thread with a shitty rper. no one has to keep playing a thread if they don't want to. expecting them to, even if they aren't enjoying it, is way more fucking entitled. jfc.

you're completely ignoring how and why the thread got started in the first place. starting a thread with the unfounded assumption that you will get exactly what you want out of it without directly asking the other person first if they're down for shipping (which a lot of people aren't) IS entitled. the entitlement started at the front end before anything got dropped.

"we started playing and it was awesome and i originally started playing because you're a good version of this char and i ship it hard, but when i brought it up, you said you didn't ship it and wouldn't even try an au and i hate that you won't cater to my needs."

the fact that they mention the au in the first place makes me think there's something fucked up with the original dynamic to make shipping something someone doesn't want, like siblings/family members, or the relationship being strictly platonic because of someone being married/interested in the opposite gender. not everyone's okay with au. i certainly don't like it. so if i were to start out playing the canon dynamic and was asked to au so we could ship and i didn't like the ship, no, i'm not going to au to ship. expecting that off the bat is totally entitled.

Have had this "surprise I ship it hard" sprung on me and bad feelings result when I said no. father/son incest was not my jam.
