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.

Wow, that's shitty of them?? Why would you lie about pain for bux. Especially if they have RA? It may have been the factor or whatever, or maybe the level of inflammation. Plus, there's mild RA to severe -- mine's severe, if i skip a dose of my shots (i have to inject) my fucking joints start to misalign. which could be a combo thing with the lupus? I also have raynaud's disease which pops up during fucking cold months and AC too.

It's such BS, dude. None of that's your fault. And... like, for real, are we just supposed to eat bananas until we fucking die? If I treat myself to a can of soda it's "oh no what are you doing :( that's not good for your illnesses :( it's processed :( you have to drink water only water and do yoga :(" lmfao i can not

Ah yeah Ive heard that one too. "I don't know how to help you, so I feel sad and awkward when you mention you're in pain" uhhhh well you ask me how I'm feeling and I answer according to how i... feel. and lmao have you gotten the "you have to rise above it!" speech? "you have to work twice as hard to be active and healthy! don't let your pain keep you from doing things that cause more pain!"

Hmmm. Idk anon. I'd tag a 16 yo and I'd tag a 30 yo. I guess for me it'd boil down to personality. Ages alone are difficult, though the game does seem to be veering to characters that are... 20+ish? Not that there aren't younger ones! Seems like they aren't the vast majority though? Idk.

if you like narita in general, baccano is also being professionally translated! all of vamp was fantranslated a few years back too (it's only 5 volumes)

log horizon does fun stuff with the mmo genre (imo. it's nothing crazy innovative but it can be fun), and I can't confirm/deny rokka no yuusha's quality for myself but I've heard nice things. same for toradora (just fantranslated I think?) and legend of the galactic heroes

and if (also fantranslated) webnovels are in your wheelhouse too, I had a fun time with the other world dining hall!

tbh i think it's just one anon carrying on about how terrible it must be to not have every person tagging you immediately interested in smut, but the idea of being more welcoming to possible female characters isn't a bad idea, either, even if what we already have isn't something to be ashamed of.

we could always use more of a good thing.

is it even possible to get a "good career" (very stable, good enough pay to live comfortably off of, cares about you as an employee) without going to college?

it's really hard to talk to my parents about how the economy has changed and i can't just go get a good from the good job tree. lots of jobs sound awesome and great but they don't just hire you right after sending in an application. it's stuff we all know, but i'm curious if any of you anons have some kind of dream job you didn't even have to go to school for?

Re: Fate

i'm also gonna add that the original Fate/Stay Night VN suffers from a lot of really suspect writing/translations. While part of it comes from Nasu's stream of consciousness style, the hentai scenes in particular are terrible-hilarious since Nasu (the writer) got Takeuchi (the artist) to write them for him. Plus F/SN was one of the first VNs I can remember that got a full translation in the days before the days of any sort of quality.

because, as you can see from the first batch of replies, rpers are very sensitive and self-conscious people.

I think it's possible, but it's not something that is going to happen right away. The key seems to be similar as it was when our parents were our age: get in with a good company, stick around and move up. It's not always easy because you need some edge to make up for the lack of degree and experience in those higher positions, but a good proven track record of performance can go a long way with the right company.

this is definitely the best advice.

also, to add on, if they start it and find they don't like it (no matter how many episodes they've watched/chapters they've read/hours they've played/etc), don't give them shit for it or push them to give it another try. accept that not every person will like every canon recommended to them.

i give no fucks about smut games and have zero plans to join one because of dumb attitudes like this, but lmao what the hell are you on

literally nobody joins smut games for gen cr. completely gen cr with no plans for shipping/smut in smut games is considered a nice extra but it's backburner. why the fuck would someone join a smut game and value gen cr over smut cr? or even really consider them on the same level? that's like joining a plot-driven psychological horror game and going "nah, i'm gonna spend my time equally between the scary stuff and cutesy friendly mingle logs. actually i think i like these parties full of pointless small talk more than the horror aspects!"

and yes i know some idiots do this to be contrary but they're not who i'm talking about

point out where anyone said they were only going to get gen cr.

it's pretty much implied, anon. quotes from this whole thread:

"the old adage 'beggars can't be choosers' comes to mind.
but seriously even if you don't want to fuck them, people could tag them on the test drive and give them gen cr so they know people want them around." - beggars can't be choosers, so be happy with what you get.

"the game isn't JUST fucking, holy shit." - it's not JUST fucking, but fucking is what people are signing up for.

"so you just refuse to tag characters you don't plan to bone." - implying that they have no intention to bone the char and are happy to tag them (which no one's saying that gen cr is bad. but just gen cr in a smut game is shitty)

"you're still insisting ship/smut cr is the only cr worthwhile. even in a smut game. that's still a stupid thing to say, and it still isn't true." - it's not the only worthwhile cr, but it's what people sign up for. again, no one's saying gen cr is bad.

"i'm going to tag whoever i want for whatever reasons i want. if you don't want my gen cr, fuck off, you ungrateful, entitled baby." - admits it right there.

"in your mind, gen cr = scraps" - again, not contesting they only plan on playing gen.

the arguments are split here and there's two discussions going on. one is that people expect smut cr in a smut game and the other is that gen cr is just as important. no one argued that gen cr in a smut game is bad, but it's not what people sign up for.

please do make female characters feel more welcome, but do it in a way that isn't luring them into the game with promises of things they're not actually going to get. because otherwise it falls into that shitty category of 'well, my bi guy totally sleeps with both genders, but i ftb all m/f scenarios because i don't like playing it out'. okay. that's nice. but when you say you're shipping with x female character, it's unfair for them if they don't get to play out smut in a smut game because their 'ship partner' is allergic to vaginas.

fuck that wank. driveby anon who loves the idea of a sex game where a woman character can get reliable ships/smut. I had all kinds of trouble last time I tried. can I get a link to the game so I can check it out?

(Anonymous) 2017-03-18 02:36 am (UTC)(link)
i have older relatives who insist that i should harass (my words, not theirs) employers until they hire me.

if i call them and beg to talk to the manager everyday, then they'll surely know i'm willing to work! no, they'll think that i'm fucking annoying!

no, i can't just chat with the manager about hiring me, it's tyool 2017 and most employers will point me to their online job applications, especially if they're a franchise.

and fuck no, randomly organizing shelves at kroger or cleaning tables at mcdonald's isn't going to be my foot in the door. do you seriously believe that managers watch out for that shit?!

shirobako

it's a work place dramedy but it definitely has extremely tight plotting and the characters move along their arcs at a good clip.

If you want something with more of an action/high stakes bent, Trigun, though it's from the 90s if that's an issue.

yes

my job is one of the ones that would make most people roll their eyes and tell me to get a "real job", but the truth is that i have secure hours, benefits, 401k, 3 weeks of paid vacation a year, and i make a good bit above minimum wage. i can live comfortably by myself, and i was a homeowner in my mid-20s

i wouldn't call it my dream job, but i don't know what my dream job would be anyway. but it's not difficult and it lets me live pretty nicely so it's cool in my book
