makes ur butt happy

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.

Political topics are still banned. Report threads and they will be deleted.

DA loves the heck out of this TDM. I am currently wriggling impatiently for tagbacks on the thread I'm using as my network sample.

looking to practice playing Misaki in general, so bouncing off any of the girls from any band would be fine by me! i like most gen memes, but i've got a fondness for the stuck in the rain type.

if you have something else in mind or an idea of where we can start, i'd like to hear it! PM this journal please

All right. I think I can manage that

when your cr spontaneously stops paying attention to you both ic and ooc

and explicitly ignoring you

feels bad to respond to one of those plurk cr memes and get ignored repeatedly

idek what i did

they can't be that amazing a writer if they have to resort to pretending to be a second person to play with themself to show off their ability. if that's the whole point then surely they've got at least one person they can do a random thread with?

DA

in my case, because I've seen a total of two other journals for the other half of the ship besides my former PSL partner's that left, and neither of them recently.

small fandom problems :(

(Anonymous) 2018-05-28 03:57 am (UTC)(link)
the most likely scenario: I get so few tags because my fandoms aren't big on bakerstreet and don't overlap with most of my friends'. the ones that do overlap are busy with games.

the scenario my brain always jumps straight to: nobody wants to tag with me because I'm annoying and a shitty player, but they won't say that to my face

I miss RPing :(

Same! Waiting ten days to get an app verdict kind of sucks, I usually like to get to know everybody else in an intro post or something before the game starts, but I get why they do it this way.

(Anonymous) 2018-05-28 04:01 am (UTC)(link)
how do I get past being too shy to post to the "things you want to play" threads?

especially with my main since I've only seen a couple other people play them, ever, and so I'm worried about being too obvious

Re: RP WOES

(Anonymous) 2018-05-28 04:16 am (UTC)(link)
DA

I'm in a similar boat and I want to ask! but I'm afraid I'd just look creepy and needy since they do still reply to non-RP-related stuff

IMHO, it also pays to be a little bit selective when you're tagging out, even if that seems counterintuitive

like, say you want to start a thread with character X, who you don't have much CR with, and they have a post up but none of the starters really grab you or make sense for your character

if you just force yourself to give a mediocre or sliiiightly OOC tag for the sake of not being cliquish, it's going to be WAY harder to follow through on that thread

either wait for a starter that works, or approach the player on plurk or something directly, and figure out a dynamic interaction that can hook your characters in and give them a *reason* to build more of a relationship than just 'banter about how the jamjar sucks' or whatever

also, when something dramatic/event-y happens to your character, consider giving new CR dibs on first encounters, because that kind of thing can be great for starting CR off strong and in unexpected directions, even if it might be more "likely" for them to be around their regular CR when the event hits or whatever

(Anonymous) 2018-05-28 04:47 am (UTC)(link)
consider more crosscanon with your friends who aren't game busy

98% of my characters are obscure as fuck but some of my best PSLs are cool crosscanon dynamics

(Anonymous) 2018-05-28 05:12 am (UTC)(link)
just fucking do it, man.

if you're not trying to rp diaper fetish or something, nobody will even care if they recognize you.

(Anonymous) 2018-05-28 05:25 am (UTC)(link)
recognize that you're really the only person that cares
im not trying to be rude btw. im saying it's unlikely that anyone that you know is that obsessed with keeping tabs on you so just go for it. you're the only one psyching yourself out

(Anonymous) 2018-05-28 05:25 am (UTC)(link)
You have everything to gain by going for it! Don't be afraid to ask for what you want, because there's no other way you're ever going to get it. You're also probably not as obvious as you think.

Good luck, maybe we'll meet again in that thread once you post it. :)

the cr meme is 3 days after the game opens, what do you need before that?

Re: ayrt

(Anonymous) 2018-05-28 07:01 am (UTC)(link)
I agree that if that's what they're doing, it's a really, really weird tactic, but fwiw, it's kinda hard to rely on anyone else for Bakerstreet threads. If they know what they want and want to get it done fast, you know. If you want something done, you gotta do it yourself, I guess.

op= original poster
da= different anon
sa= same anon

ayrt = ???

anon you ridiculous turtle
anon you really tried
anon you're really terrible

(Anonymous) 2018-05-28 07:35 am (UTC)(link)
you're on anon op. no harm done if you say it right?

(Anonymous) 2018-05-28 07:41 am (UTC)(link)
ayrt = anon you replied to (as in you're the anon i'm replying to, so you would type ayrt if you replied to me. sa is for if i were to add another comment after this, indicating i'm the same anon that just posted)

that seems to be where most people screw up on sa/ayrt.

also, nayrt = not the anon you replied to (another version of da)
and na = new anon
