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.

How do you get more game CR for an at best socially awkward character from an obscure twenty year old canon? I've been trying to tag out as much as I can and use as many hooks as I can in my tags, but I haven't been getting many replies back. it's getting to the point where the only way I'll make AC this month is if I tag every open post I can reasonably tag into. Help??

define "socially awkward" in this scenario?

Lack of a brain to mouth filter, coupled with a paranoid, abrasive personality that's more or less a shield for a damaged spirit underneath.

I played one of these a couple games back. If you have a hint of close cr, tackle that and stick to it. Keep your tags short and bend a little ooc if you're worried about ac, just to make the interaction easier.

I've tweaked the char to be less abrasive, though that has me worried someone will call me out on a HMD for ~not being in character~. It seems like anything will get you jumped on, these days.

It's an old canon and you're essentially in lcw or even oc territory. If you aren't getting tags AND you get critted, it's time to try a new game.

Wish you luck though. The abrasive types can be tough but worth it.

Have the character be make and reasonably attractive. Good luck if it's a woman.

Character is male, but he's not exactly attractive: for starters, he's short, and secondly, he's odd-looking in a non-glasses-wearing nerdy sort of way.
