good luck to your dad on his path to downton abbey BNFdom

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.

da but I don't get why people constantly jump the gun with this kind of finger pointing.

"I drop things when I get bored." "Well it must be because YOU are dull and boring!"

"I wish people in this hobby would communicate better and tag back more." "Well it must be because YOU are shitty so it's probably your fault!"

"I'm a pretty good writer and I make sure to give people stuff to respond to." "You can't say that about yourself, only other people can judge that and since you think you're good you must really be bad."

are you seriously so threatened by even a hint of self-confidence that you need to try and undermine it at every opportunity?

do you really want this to be a community so riddled with insecurity that no one can talk to each other without crumpling over in hand-wringing anxiety? WHY would you want that??

I mean I get that misery loves company and all but damn, give it a rest dude.

that's amusing considering the devs themselves apparently don't give a shit, given they put major spoilers into the launch trailer and the achievements descriptions.

(Anonymous) 2017-02-23 04:49 pm (UTC)(link)
Well it looks like they finally have, here's hoping the new mods are better about communicating.

(Anonymous) 2017-02-23 05:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Mine got pissy when I did and I told her to suck it up. She took forever to get back to me with tags and hardly showed any enthusiasm for our threads so I went ahead and started tagging someone who actually tagged me back. The amount of fun I was having actually being able to finish a thread was so worth it.

if you and another roleplayer were avoiding each other on neutral terms and you were both going to join the same game, would you feel obligated to let the mods know about the situation?

or if you're a mod, what would you prefer in this situation?

deets for my situation: i don't want to rp with them or talk to them unless it's unavoidable or just the occasional thread. i won't flip out and cry STALKER!!!!!!!! if they tag me on bakerstreet not realizing it's me, send me a pp to ask me something, or occasionally want to chat, but they just don't seem like someone i would want in my life ooc. we've never had an official falling out, i just sent them a simple pm saying "hey, i'm not interested in rping with you and, since you asked nicely, here's why." they do have a wank history but i don't consider them a "threat" to me.

their identity is nobody's business but mine, theirs, and potentially the mods' so don't ask/guess who it is.

lmao it's bc anons' self esteems are so low that they feel personally attacked every time somebody makes a general complaint about this hobby

(Anonymous) 2017-02-23 05:36 pm (UTC)(link)
as a mod, no. if you're on civil terms and you're not wanking on each other or causing trouble for each other and have no reason to think anything might start, going to the mods is premature. if you're doing it to be like "hey please don't assign our characters housing or events together" that's cool. but if it's just like "we're ignoring each other" we don't need to know.

(Anonymous) 2017-02-23 05:38 pm (UTC)(link)
speaking from the mod perspective: if you're castmates, or if the game has plots that use rng to group people together you should probably let the mod know

the former just so any complaints about being ooc for character a avoiding b can be neutralized (ooc comfort always trumps ic) and the latter to avoid any awkward groupings in plots

you don't have to explain any particulars for what's between you two, just give a heads up saying you and that player have agreed to avoid each other ingame for personal reasons

YURI ON ICE

(Anonymous) 2017-02-23 06:02 pm (UTC)(link)
most sports anime bore the fuck out of me, how does it compare?

i thought pretty rhythm was good, haikyuu is tolerable, and chihayafuru seems okay from the few episodes i've seen.

sincerely,
a fat weeb-ass shut-in who gives absolutely no fucks about real sports

(Anonymous) 2017-02-23 06:25 pm (UTC)(link)
pripara, pretty rhythm, aikatsu/stars, maho girls precure

basically i need more sparkly girly shit to watch. i like sailor moon and other seasons of precure, esp smile and suite.

Re: YURI ON ICE

personally i loved it, but there are some valid criticisms of it

firstly, the show is hyper focused on the central two characters, the rest get screentime, but not really any development, and their personalities are mostly there for gags. they're still likeable, just not very deep or rounded out unless they get a focus episode (but only one episode, usually, which in a short run series, is kinda understandable)

second, and people have widely differing opinions on this, but the central pairing of the show is Highly Controversial, and not for anything racy, but because some people think it's boring, others think it's realistic, some thing it's poorly developed, others think it evolves pretty naturally. the best approach is to completely disregard what anyone else things about it, positive or negative, and approach it neutrally, and form your own opinion


the animation in the skating scenes is great, the costumes designs are great, actual pro ice skaters fucking love it idk if that's worth anything or not, and it's a relatively short series, so you don't lose much by giving it a try.

(Anonymous) 2017-02-23 06:30 pm (UTC)(link)
flip flappers. it looks weird at first, but it's sparkly as shit and the animation is completely ass on head bonkers, in a good way.
