Ticky tack clicky clack

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.

it's a combination of steve being a character that attracts flaky shiny hunters who don't really want to play him as much as just looking at his evans face and people who do want to be active with him getting way too much demand than they can keep up with and then getting called cliquey and flaky for it when they just can't tag all the things and they drop because fuck that, rp's supposed to be fun.

mcus are always shat on in most games, but there seems to be a disproportionate amount of attention paid to steves than any other character. most mcus are flaky, but steves are the ones that get all the complaints. it doesn't really make any sense.

the reason steves get more complaints is because they flake way harder than any other mcu character, in my experience. like, sure, other mcu characters can be incredibly flaky, but steves take it to a whole new level.

i'm in another game where we just had a steve drop after two months where they hadn't so much as made an intro post. the last steve before them made a post and a log the day they came into the game, then we never saw them again outside of ac for three months when they finally idled out.

The only MCU's I've seen be reliably around in games are Tony Starks. Those players stick to their characters like burrs to fur, even if they seem fairly insular.
