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.

considering an app here but I'd like to know: how easy is it to get CR if you're playing an OC?

As with most characters (anyone not from a popular fandom), I'd say it's a matter of how much you tag out. The game's big enough that most people have established CR, so putting up starters and hoping people hit you up won't always work out. That said, there are a lot of friendly people in the game who'll bounce tags until forever, and half the mods play OCs. I wouldn't say there's much bias.

As someone who used to play an oc there, it was very hit or miss. I had some successful threads in my time and some unsuccessful threads where I was ignored/flaked on for established cr. The oldbies seemed a lot more insular and closed off so I would suggest focusing on newer players for meaningful cr.

get ready to put in the time. you can make it work if you're willing to tag out and be fast and consistent, but accept that there are a lot of people in game who just aren't going to care.

As a player here, I wanted to say that I'm always interested in playing with OCs, so long as there's enough information in their journal that I can actually get an idea of what I'm getting into! I've passed up playing with a lot of OCs on memes and stuff because for some reason people just don't have any information about them available, which seems completely stupid to me, because then potential CR has no way to get to know them at all or determine if their character is someone they'd click with.
