Re: More Comm Ideas

most of those have fallen by the wayside for various reasons. [community profile] milliways_bar exists on dw, but it's at the periphery of dwrp these days. the audience coming to rpa mostly doesn't use it.

the primary non-game communities we use now are:
[community profile] bakerstreet - meme community and hub for other meme communities, a lot of memes are crossposted
[community profile] fortanon - meme community with anon enabled
[community profile] dear_player - replacement for dear_mun, first-person RP with a meta angle
[personal profile] enablemeplz - replacement for appthisplease, a place to find games and PSLS
[community profile] rpanons, obviously, but you found this one

[community profile] the_love_hotel and [community profile] sixwordstories also still exist, but they don't have reputations for drawing good players.

people have been interested in reviving various communities and styles of RP, but very few have been successful. dwrpers will talk about missing dressing rooms or nexus communities, but the bulk of rpers are no longer interested in actually playing in those settings and the people who try to revive old comms often give up.

if you're willing to adapt to the current landscape, there are still plenty of ways to get both first-person and third-person RP, but they might not look the way they did back in 2004.
