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.

I think it's more than people have always been very attached to the dragonflights, and Blizzard's apparently interest in exterminating them, or in this case, making the player do it, is depressing and frustrating,

Death in this canon means about as much as it does in Dragon Ball Z. One of the many reasons I checked out of it after Cata.

It really is. That's how they've always been since Wrath.

Although, not going to lie, I do want to see some paladin retribution against the Ebon Blade for their actions. Not on behalf of the dragons, but because of them resurrecting Tirion Fordring as a DK. Outrage from the orcs on behalf of Nazgrim would be great too.

As a mount collector and a main druid, I'd hate everything if I had to kill dragons for my mount's quest line. That quest where you have to kill the mom dragons to save the babies from being brainwashed seriously made my stomach turn. If you want us to kill the animals, stop making us attached to them. I legit dropped skinning when a quest asked me to kill a family of... whatever they were back in Draenor.

I can only speak for like... 10+ years ago when I was actively searching for jobs before finding a more stable career, but, I had absolutely no trouble landing interviews. I cast out a LOT of lines and sent out a LOT of resumes to prospective employers for any kind of office work. I'd send out 5-10 resumes a day and get maybe 1-2 interviews a week? Sometimes I hit dry spells and wouldn't be able to apply for anything for a week or two because I'd hit literally everything up I was remotely qualified for. This was in a more densely populated county.

Clerical/admin/ata entry, law firms, yachting, veterinary, dental, and medical were always hiring for someone who could work microsoft word and excel and type anything faster than 50wpm. Restaurants and retail too but I learned really fast I definitely don't have the right personality for those kinds of jobs. :(

Getting interviews wasn't too hard but sticking the job was a lot harder. It was always the "we want someone with experience" when you're trying to get experience catch-22. I also graduated college with an art degree so trying to get a clerical job was often met with a lot "what the hell are you doing here" and concerns I would leave as soon as I found an "art job". It was very difficult escaping the stereotype that if you're an "artsy" type you can't possible be proficient in ANYTHING else, especially if it's "technical" or "left-brained".

The short answer is NO. He should not speak and understand Spanish.

As others have pointed out, actors have been encouraged or discoursed (depending on the actor) to use their regional accents, like with Diego Luna, but if you watch how he talks, he never once uses a Spanish WORD.

Brit accents tend to be labeled from Coruscant or some other planet, just to give it all a feel that different planets have different feels to their accents. So YES, it is very possible that the planet Fest (his home planet) might have an ACCENT that might sound like our Spanish, but it doesn't mean they speak Spanish.

It's baffling why anyone would think that taking a Mexican Actor who is in a space fictional drama, and say he speaks Spanish... as an act of Social Justice. Is that what I read right in all this? That she's giving him the Spanish language to make him socially acceptable? Can someone clear this part up for me, because it doesn't make sense.

Riverview: Opening March 10th

[personal profile] riverviewmod 2017-02-21 02:43 am (UTC)(link)

riverview


FACT: Alternate realities exist. All of them were born into existence at the same time, in the same way, containing the same things, and just like any other space that people were born into, they can only make the best of what they have.

And the inhabitants of reality 5561A have really screwed theirs up.

After discovering interdimensional travel, they immediately managed to pick a fight with the next universe over. A few hundred years later, and The Great War was over, leaving reality 5561A decimated, with only stragglers surviving on every planet in the reality. They packed up their portals and were left with only one remaining natural portal they couldn't close - their only real option to recover from the war and repopulate their dying reality.

Thus was founded Riverview Quarantine, a vast city nestled in a valley on a small moon orbiting the Capital World in reality 5561A. With the portal still active, anyone from any reality who feels, even for a fleeting moment, like they don't belong where they are can be pulled through to their new reality, where they can find a new home in a new community on any number of planets...after a pleasant 5-year stay in the Quarantine, to make sure they're not a danger to themselves or others.


Riverview is a relaxed choose-your-own-pace panfandom city game, with options for involvement in an easygoing plot that includes elements of exploration, fighting, and moderate worldbuilding. Set in Riverview Quarantine, a beautiful modern city in the middle of a lush forest in an alternate reality, characters are drawn into the city by a device that senses their displacement to a society that wants them to feel at home. The government is genuinely interested in the characters' well-being. Characters are not trapped forever, and if they were brought by mistake, they may go home after a certain amount of community service to compensate for the difficulty in sending them home.

i think about how much a character like pidge would have meant to my childhood tomboyish self. during the reveal rather than express any doubt because she's not girly enough, the team tells her they already knew. it's an important message to young girls that their gender isn't defined by "traditional femininity".

this cartoon has woefully few female characters but allura and pidge are handled well. the fans need to catch up.

Casual Sex game. Either a jamjar or an AU, where characters there lose their taboos about sex. A set up for a lot of exhibitionism and group play and that kind 'sex as social interaction' thing where meeting new people might involve banging instead of handshakes because that's just normal.

Never worked on the framework much beyond that basic idea in my head because I'm pretty sure most of DWRP would freak out about consent removal and such.

After taking a long break from rping, I came back and started voice-testing a new character. It was a little shaky at first and didn't get much response to really test them out, but recently I managed to get a few threads going and I'm having a lot of fun with them.

it was brought to her on the game's hmd and she's claiming that there's no canon proof he doesn't speak spanish and because she grew up in a highly spanish speaking area representation is important to her. that's her justification.
