love ur lack of an ic/ooc divide

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's definitely been a lack of mod activity and there has been for a while. They were pretty okay with the few event things we've had and they're good with apps.

Everything else has been a mess, which is discouraging to new players, no doubt. A lot of this game is make your own adventure People have charts and plans for what they're characters do from the day to day. So, mods overseeing things isn't terribly necessary. And since there's not a lot of modding to be done it would have been nice if basic mod duties had been taken care of.

We didn't get a heads up about no AC for last month. A quick plurk is not too much to ask. It's the bare minimum and they couldn't even do that.

I know now there is some mod shifting but there have been issues for a while. This isn't a recent thing with a sudden mod shift by any means.

On the positive side they are opening up apps and I hope these new people clean things up a bit because the game absolutely needs it. I'd like things to be done a little neater and cleaner from AC to pretty much everything. I hope the new mods do a good job :)

If you don't mind the disorganization (for now?) I'd really advise apping in. The game is a lot of fun and players take care of themselves for the most part.

i've got no problem with a game running itself, but having the most basic things taken care of like reserves, taken lists, an accessible/visible test drive, a clean faq, links that go the right places, calendars (if you have them) to be updated (or mod posts about events or whatever in a kinda timely manner), and maps/info that isn't sloppy (and maybe have links to what the places look like and what businesses are in the city, also i noticed a lot of locations are included on the pokemon availability page but not on the map?) are pretty basic.

i'll probably sit out then and hope it sorts itself out. it's too bad, route always seemed a great place for people new to rp or dw and really welcoming, but this is quite a mess. hope things work out for you guys.

As someone who's been in the game since LONG before this mod batch, I hope you'll keep an eye on us and consider joining once things get sorted out. It has always been and hopefully always WILL be a welcoming game to new players- it's one of the things I've always loved most about it and I've never hesitated to give it a glowing recommendation, especially since the players have all been carrying on and holding the game up pretty much on their own.

But you're completely right and I don't blame people for passing the game by with the state it's in. We're all pretty frustrated about the current situation. :(
