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.

It's cartoon violence that isn't explicit, genius. How hard is it to understand that a community of women might have some objections to how young women are portrayed as sex objects in a game? Especially when studies have shown that yeah, fictional media does have an impact in how we're viewed and treated. this shit doesn't occur in a vacuum, and Fate fans and those outside the fandom are allowed to be critical.

In fact, if you and your buddies weren't scrambling to defend the honor of a lolishit in a bikini and mysteriously taking it so personally, this conversation would probably be over.

i can't imagine why you're this mad, then. people insult other folks taste in character designs all the time in this fandom, idk what you're hung up on, especially if it's a character you don't even like.

because after the 5,000th time HEY GUYS THIS DESIGN IS SO GROSS DID YOU SEE HOW GROSS THIS DESIGN IS IT'S REALLY GROSS BTW I HATE SEXUALIZED DRAWINGS gets old

you keep saying don't be surprised that people think a design is gross while not taking into account that you shouldn't be surprised when people get sick of the discussion revolving around this same point every time

drop the game already if the designs upset you ffs

with Rape, one of the problems is we had a literal, self-admitted rapist playing rape kinks and almost anyone I've seen that play Incest (like that awful Alphonse) tend to be extremely pushy and fail to properly label their content given Incest and Rape are genuine triggers so those bad apples make everyone else skittish about things like this being played in general games.

this works!

but there are at least four plurk emotes, so you're going to want to grab the urls for all of them as you see them and repeat this line with the correct urls.

dup people, be sure to make separate plurks for this game.

(Anonymous) 2018-10-27 07:55 pm (UTC)(link)
i really don't think this is the issue. at all.

the sudden vehement push against these kinks didn't start with an incident of a rapist playing rape kink, they started with the rise of anti culture. the backlash virtually always resembles anti culture in rhetoric and started to come around well after tumblr became the main fandom hub and LJ had long been left behind (and as far as i know, ken was revealed to be a rapist when we were still on LJ). the excuse of people not labeling stuff doesn't hold up either because there are other kinks that have been sprung on people by surprise in large numbers--for instance cannibalism, which doesn't evoke anywhere near the same response as rape/incest/underage.

that would be my rule if I were running a game too.

lmao no. i'll give credit that some anti culture has gotten into dwrp because it's gotten into all fandom discourse, but rape/incest/underage were always side-eye'd in DWRP well before that.

and a lot of it came down to them just being associated with shitty players, people not putting up warnings, getting pushy with their interests, etc. this shit still gets played out on smut memes and in the kink thread here on rpanons with very little backlash, too, so i really do think you're off the mark.

good taste all around anon

re; amakusa and achilles, do you think they'd be better without their stupid hair, maybe? konoe is a really hit and miss character designer, but that's the thing that stands out the most to me with those particular characters.

AYRT

(Anonymous) 2018-10-27 08:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, the hair is the main reason I marked Amakusa and Achilles as one of my least favorite designs.

Amakusa looks a bit better with the other hairstyle he gets in his third ascension imo, but I've never really been fond of the spiky shounen protag hairstyle in general.

Underage at least is something that has had a vehement push against it for longer than that. That came with far more strict enforcement of laws regarding child porn and people being paranoid that writing porn involving an underage character could get them arrested and labeled as a sex offender.

Even on LJ people had serious issues with smutting with underage characters, which is why most sex games tended to require underage characters be aged up. People would also freak out if they found out they played smut with someone under 18.

I mean you got people playing Dramatical Murder characters in even regular games so I think you'd probably be fine?

Damn you went hard. I will say that they're going through some stuff, but I agree maybe they shouldn't tag while it's going on, or just keep it to one or two threads they can handle

I also want to ask, what would be more interesting? Said OC succeeding, or failing and dealing with that fall out? I'll have to figure out which will happen at some point, but I think just the mention of that struggle will be interesting.

my experience too. she alternated between sweet and pa so much i got the feeling sweet only came around when she wanted something from me.

i thought it was me. i was reading too much into it, i was doing something wrong when she was upset etc. i left eventually, then the deets started to surface.

smut games only *recently* loosened up on character age restrictions. if anything we're less strict about underage characters in smut than we used to be, at least in actual games.
