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 joined MoM within this last year and I really love it! I think you'd also be picking a good time to join. A lot of the stuff people were worried about earlier in the year (burnout from a lot of players, the OOC pages needing to be updated, plot confusion) seems to have gotten better over the past few months (the pace of events slowed, the OOC pages got updated, etc).

I will second what the above anon said about how you'll want to keep SOL/plot in mind with whoever you app. I came in with a character who was 1. interested in the plot and 2. has a strong voice (plus some other stuff that would give me away lol), and that really helped me get into the game quickly in a way I don't think I would have if I was playing someone low-key. Having made connections with other players via that character helped once I apped other, less involved characters too, although I'm sure that's true of any game. Of course, if you want to play SOL, you'll get plenty of SOL! Depends on what about the game interests you.

Other than that the game is pretty welcoming! It's been around so long that the plot seems confusing, but you really don't need to know all that much to understand what's going on. I also agree that player plots are far more common than mod ones, and proactive player actions usually seem to function in the way that events would work in most games, if that's something you'd be interested in.
