The mysterious depths of his manly cave

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 have several characters who would never be comfortable with taking a child soldier with them on a mission. That's actually a pretty HUGE moral line for a character to cross if they aren't from a canon where child soldiers are apparently a totally normal thing.

Original anon poster here - I was really hoping to do a canon game but a dressing room is almost as good! I'll hit you guys up!

I'd rather see a suitability section than a hard age cap. It's not like its a sex game and not all adults are going to be suitable for such a game either. I can get not trusting a child soldier right off the bat, but give the character a chance to prove themselves rather than lock them out.

i didn't say my character was FINE with the idea. of course they think those worlds are fucked up. i did say having to get used to it at first. but on the long run, conversation will be easier with those soldier kids. working will be easier with those kids than with a skater or a swimmer or a disney princess. my point is about op's mention of friendships and cr. anon above mentions missions, but that's not the only thing happening in games, even those mission based. my character will interact with people outside their job. he'll want everyone's mission to go well too. your chara doesn't accept kids in their missions, totally fair, but are you telling me they'd accept osomatsu or ariel? now if it was age cap AND suitability, i'd understand a little better and even agree with it. but age caps won't stop vampire lolis that behave like teens.

and yes, of course there will be other games. first thing i said was mods can create whatever game they want. i'm just expressing why i think age caps don't work by their own.

how have you been doing recently, anons?

I'm sorry, you're not making any sense to me. Both are bad (well, kinda. I signed on knowing a bad end was possible and have been joking about it for a year so it's not exactly horrifying to me), but either the game dies or it makes it to the planned endgame. It can't do both.

(b) unless the PM is because they want to assume some serious CR/have a possibly divisive character/something outside of normal circumstances.

if i get (a) i'm just gonna ignore it.

i don't care which i get when people tag me.

in my own tagging out, i lean toward b, but i do a pretty often because i prefer to tag out cross canon and i like to check if the person is okay with whatever au or scenario i'm thinking of before i write a starter around it.

Nah, this killed my interest completely. Best of luck to anyone who tries, but I'm moving on.

i like that they hurried to clear the drop queue and it filled right back up again. at this rate the game won't even make it to friday.

I played a teenager in Tower of Animus and that game got pretty damn dark at times.

my character is a military guy, so when it comes right down to it, he's going to have a lot more in common with a child soldier than with an osomatsu or a yuri on ice character. he'd be bothered by the idea of child soldiers, of course, but it's not like they don't exist in his own world and if push came to shove, he would be way more comfortable going on a mission with one of them than with an adult who had never picked up a weapon before.

I've been debating, since I do adore Howl's Moving Castle, on trying Sophie. I'd need to figure an account for her, and rewatch, but it's only a movie so that wouldn't take long. If you were okay with me also joining in voicetesting, pm [personal profile] anonsocks?

I have a Howl ([personal profile] slitherer) that I'd really like to bounce off a Sophie! Shoot me a PM there.

RECOMMENDATIONS FOR NEW THINGS TO LEARN/STUDY

(Anonymous) 2017-03-22 04:00 am (UTC)(link)
what are some practical or interesting things that you think i or other anons should educate ourselves about? giving reasons why is optional but appreciated.

bonus points if there are free/cheap study materials online such as non-subscription websites, youtube channels, MOOCs (massive open online courses), or just plain old "acquiring." please post serious answers and not things like "how to properly keep fucking that chicken."

i have no preferences otherwise. other anons are welcome to make their own requests.

Cooking! Learning how to cook well is such an undervalued skill.

I really want to make one, I have for a while before Eluvio opened up. I'm worried people would be too soured to a copy cat right now though. I just like games where you can travel to different settings.

(Anonymous) 2017-03-22 04:43 am (UTC)(link)
+1 to all of this. none of my characters would be okay with children in battle or traumatizing situations, no matter how well suited they might be

fuck's sake, forget ~suitability for once. let there be at least ONE game where it's grown ups only. you can take your child badasses to any other dark/violent game (except eluvio lol)

Re: ELUVIO

(Anonymous) 2017-03-22 04:55 am (UTC)(link)
I'd join your game, anon! Just don't make it a complete copycat then - give it the things you want but put your own spin on it.

I'm not soured to the concept, just to the psychotic mods.
