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.

there are as many justifiable reasons to hate tumblr as there are atoms in the universe

why would you even be a game with a mod you know is a shithead? this is like people joining a quix game and then bitching about it

"creep crew"? can we get some elaboration on this?

maybe i'm just out of the loop but afaik all but the most insignificant of creepers have long since been driven out of the meme scene? kayvin, mike, antman are all gone and does anyone even tag made by me ever? i think him and that lauren are tied for most widely and easily avoided bakerstreet stragglers

Sometimes when I've wanted to critique a mod decision I'd rather do it without my name attached. The mods all seem reasonable but truth is I've gotten the cold shoulder before from reasonable seeming mods after giving critique and I'd rather not risk it again. Individual players and their characters I can crit in person, but if I'm critting moderators as moderators I'd rather go anon.

And there have been times where I've wanted to bring up an in-game issue without pointing the finger at specific players I've played with recently. But, honestly, I mostly think it'd be a step in the right direction to open up one anonymous route of contact in this game. We're still kind of stuck in the "anons are evil" Rei ages in that regard. Even the meme comm of all things doesn't even allow anon comments, and I think some people are harboring a lot of paranoia about anons and what having a single anon-enabled contact page would lead to.

Someone please put up a meme, it's so slow here right now and we haven't had a meme in months.

I would but I have no ideas.

because nobody knew beforehand, presumably

that being said i haven't seen any drops from this or even talk of dropping so i'm pretty sure people are just going to grin and bear it, regardless of any handwringing done here

there were people who were interested in the game who are now turned off from it, but that kind of thing isn't going to bother seth, much less cut into the game's potential tbh.

(Anonymous) 2016-10-13 04:08 am (UTC)(link)
that meme was fun as hell

Re: da

(Anonymous) 2016-10-13 04:10 am (UTC)(link)
seth being on the mod team definitely isn't ideal but i still love the game and i'm sticking with it

i'm sorry for the people who were warded off by it, but given this is the only troublesome aspect of the game so far? i'm willing to take my chances, and honestly these days it's becoming harder and harder to find mods that AREN'T problematic in some way

it could be better, yes, but it could also be a hell of a lot worse

I'm not paranoid about anons, I just don't see how it's necessary to have it.

Re: TLV

(Anonymous) 2016-10-13 04:25 am (UTC)(link)
I'm not saying you're paranoid in particular, and it isn't necessary but it wouldn't hurt, either. There's a poll going on right now and people are actively voting against having anon contact, which is what puzzles me.

i will never understand what the hell did people see in kaiba/jounouchi, nlg. it's not even rivalshipping, these two just hate each other.

Re: op

(Anonymous) 2016-10-13 04:31 am (UTC)(link)
kaiba/yami is where it's at

and it's got way more canon basis too with that delicious one-sided butthurt obsession kaiba has, which was cranked up to eleven in the movie

i'm one of the nos.

specify screened anon comments only, fine. being able to crit the mods anon wouldn't bother me. anon discussion by the entire game, or worse anyone who got tossed a link? fuck no.

Re: TLV

(Anonymous) 2016-10-13 05:05 am (UTC)(link)
I imagine the anon comments would be screened and even if they weren't, a vast majority of games don't get their anon mod contact pages trolled by outsiders, let alone a game as under-the-radar as TLV. If it was about HMDs I'd understand the concern because someone outside the game with a grudge against a player could be posting rude comments it, but what could they even say on a mod contact page? I doubt the mods would take someone posting 20 anon comments saying "raise the activity check now!!" or something like that seriously without polling the playerbase in a non-anon capacity.

(Anonymous) 2016-10-13 05:18 am (UTC)(link)
Yes, but it's different from the one where the focus is finding a character that is compatible with yours (be it shipping or not).

(Anonymous) 2016-10-13 05:58 am (UTC)(link)
Eh. A lot of gay advocacy groups in my area encouraged telling your coming out stories on social media. A lot of teenagers do gauge the experiences of others to see if it's so horrible coming out of the closet, and more than a few adults who were too scared to come out at a younger age as well. It isn't a "share your sexuality" meme so much as "the majority of us are happier out of the closet. So come out, come out whoever you are~"

it's disheartening to see certain players reserving popular characters they already play in other games, especially when there's a cast cap. inb4 i want to app said characters, i don't but i was hoping to tag someone who'd actually play said characters instead of just tagging a handful cast mates before idling out in a few months.

Re: ATLAS

(Anonymous) 2016-10-13 06:19 am (UTC)(link)
atlas is the new mass appeal sci-fi game so of course all the flakes and shiny chasers are going to pile in

i hate to tell you this anon but if you didn't see this coming you weren't paying much attention

Interracial sex. Live-action canons or LA OCs. Leave a sock I can PM and whether you prefer m/f, m/m, or f/f. I can do all three.

i'm pretty sure one of them either idled or got kicked out from their last game, i'm a bit chafed about it actually

(Anonymous) 2016-10-13 07:11 am (UTC)(link)
well, burgerland anons just don't want to admit that their taste is the shittier one so they have to shift the blame.

someone's new to the fandom and you send them to tumblr? What kind of monster are you!?

but here you go. I went tumblr diving and found this and it seems to encompass things pretty well as far as I can tell.

http://autumn-sweet-fae.tumblr.com/post/147280614564/so-what-is-this-keith-alien-theory-it-started

Personally I think it's just a fan theory that's never going to be anywhere near canon but until we hear otherwise some people like playing with the idea of it and I've seen a couple of Galra-Keiths floating around BS if you're interested in exploring that angle.
