All the pretty little anons

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.

Yeah, I'd probably drop funds into the local battered women's shelter and/or the safe injection sites our city is experimenting with so that the people who actively need them have a better shot of breaking the cycle.

The first part is getting away from the abusive situation (or out here, the drug addiction) the second and often even harder part involves not going back.

To answer the original question, I might set up scholarships for kids actively looking to create upstart energy alternatives to oil, like some kind of uber of power generation for local communities or developing countries. a PowerShare network where people can generate electricity, store it, and sell excess to one another would be really cool but I don't have the background necessary to figure out where to go from there. As for how to screen applicants... I would probably hire someone to look into their backgrounds and check their grades and extracurricular activities, along with possibly associations with current proprietary associations. The last thing I'd want is for someone to research how to do this and then lock the patent down so nobody could use it again, as a lot of other ideas have flopped in the past.

There's a thought. I tried that a couple of times when I first joined DWRP but it felt awkward and out of place. I came here a try-hard and the edges are only just beginning to wear off.

I don't know if you're still checking this thread, but I've been wanting to try layout commissions but wasn't sure if anyone would bite!

I have a layout comm you can check out, [community profile] betterdolphin, but with the caveat the layouts there are a few years old and I haven't fixed up old code (I'm a front end dev/webdesigner by trade, so my skills are up to date, but I've just been out of the DW layout making hobby for awhile, but it'll be easy to get back into).

If you PM this journal I can give you my email and hash out details. (Or if anyone else interested wants to contact me for a layout commission, feel free.)

b-b-but they have to run ahead! they have to! don't you see that the mean old dps and healers will pull for them if they don't? what else are they supposed to do?

back when i used to tank, i'd just let people who pulled for me die, same as i'll let a dumbass tank who charges 10 miles ahead of the rest of the team die when i'm healing. again, have fun sitting around waiting for another healer if you kick me. lately i've found healers are harder to come by than tanks. wonder why that is.

i was going to joke about how my dog thinks that he's entitled to food/belly rubs but i just remembered something from years ago as i was typing.

it was like 8-10 years ago on a webcomics forum. one of the members drew requests for cutesy chibi furries for people's avatars/signatures. she also had her own webcomic. now her art wasn't awful but it wasn't that good. as long as she sticked to the chibis, her art looked fine enough.

a few members were talking about how nice she was and how mean other people were for talking shit about her art after she ranted. i privately asked one of them for details and he told me "she said she has a condition where she can't take criticism at all" apparently she threw fits and deleted everything when that happened. i didn't really pay attention to her tbh so i had no idea until then.

ngl the fact that he told me it wasn't anxiety or depression (i asked if it was) pointed to the fact that it was either A. made up to make it look "legitimate" or B. something unstable like a personality disorder. i can't imagine why you wouldn't just say it's really bad anxiety though??? quite a few members at the time were open about a/d and no one bothered them.

immense entitlement is telling your friends you have a "condition" where only asspats are acceptable instead of saying "i get anxious." i honestly questioned how bad the criticism she got was seeing how accepting and asspatty furries are. idk how she got to adulthood with a "condition" like hers tbh.

fwiw this is her art: http://web.archive.org/web/20060202085448/http://furfire.org

This is very simple, you little Trumpet: Fucking someone with a different skin color from you is not a kink. Sure, it might be a porn category because someone might be more attracted to people of a certain race, but that doesn't make it a KINK.

That's all well and good, but don't turn around and call out caster DPS for not being able to keep up with your (general 'your') fuckery. I have to stand still to cast. I have a maximum range for my spells. You constantly running away from me makes it so I spend very little time doing damage and a lot of time chasing you. I only have three charges of Ice Floes and I shouldn't be using them every time they're available because of you.

Also what the hell happened to just letting problem players die? "You spank it, you tank it", remember? Afraid you'll get kicked? You have a goddamn insta-queue!

Nah, honestly it seems like you guys are just doing what you want, and what you want is to charge ahead of everything like an asshole. Many of you don't even let people pick up quests before you start charging ahead, ffs.

I'd raid with you anyday, anon. If I still played. You and I could sit back and watch the idiots die. And if any healers run ahead of their tank, they're shitty healers and deserve what they get for not letting the tank do their job.

And yeah, there are few healers because it's a thankless job. Don't heal an idiot? Shame on you, healer! Heal the idiot and then have no mana left because you had to spend it all on a moron who kept getting their ass kicked because they ran off without the rest of the group? How dare you not conserve your mana, healer! You can't win, and I learned just not to try.

Dear you,
I know you like my character and have played a lot with someone else's version and that's great, but please stop assuming my character's reactions to things and answering for me when people ask questions. I barely know you. Slow your roll.

okay but while I've seen that post, it's a single fucking post, and I haven't heard a peep otherwise. one person being stupid =/= an entire demographic being stupid.

Holy shit, Furfire.

When I was a wee tiny babby internet, I had an internet boyfriend who was into Furfire. He was into it enough that somehow he managed to wheedle himself a very important "script-writing position" with the comic (as well as making up a truly atrocious self-insert character, the beginning of his descent into the furry lifestyle which fifteen years later he's still deep in).

And oh god, that comic. I wish I remembered specifics, but it's been long enough that I don't. All I remember is this impression that the internal workings of that comic sounded alternately like the most buttpatty echo-chamber of mutual cocksucking that you can imagine, or at other times exactly the total disaster of passive-aggression that the above comment sketches out. Meltdowns, people quitting only to come back once the fandom begged them to, behind-the-scenes creators getting into stupid feuds, etc.

I'm getting the most delightfully terrible nostalgia right now. I haven't thought of Furfire in years.

the real reason why you have such bad luck isn't because the world hates you. it's because you make stupid decisions which turn vaguely bad situations really bad, and the reason why you do that is because you're addicted to people fussing over you and giving you pity. and your timeline does it every. single. time. i don't know who i hate more at this point negl you or them but you'll be gone soon so it won't be my problem.

hahaha yes this is also a case of "breaks up the main (CANONICAL) ship" too so it's a double helping of oh no. i even ship the main canonical ship too so it's not like i want to break it up i just also want this other thing on the side :(. it's hard out here for a multishipper.

anyway ty for your kind words. i might try that once i get up the nerve. <3

ahhhh I would anon, but I am pretty much happily ensconced in one fandom/ship and don't generally play outside of it :/

self indulgent rper is self indulgent, but what can you do.

You'll find the other half of your evil ship, I found mine!

(though if for some reason we're playing the same gross ship on the sly, give me a hint at your fandom?)

blatantly invaded an online stranger's privacy today to the point where i made myself nauseous. i don't miss you often (or at all, most of the time), but you were good for moral compassry and i miss being able to have someone else tell me when i'm being a creep.

yeah yeah, suck it up and maybe don't be a weird shitdick. i know.
