Rundown: 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.

then maybe it's not a game for those kinds of people

nevermind that radios in the game, at current, auto-translate characters using them, which is one work-around: "But anything filtered through radios, devices, or other items found in the setting (i.e., "native" items) automatically translates."

like, why is this even an argument happening in this game's thread?

because we're far enough away from a time when language barriers in games were more common that we have a whole slew of people who have no exposure to the idea and have no idea how to react to it.

i mean they have a valid point. rpers were, at some point, able to function in games with language barriers just fine, as games with that particular element were more common. one can only assume a fuss is being kicked up now because it's been a minute since then.

i mean they have a valid point. America was, at some point able to function with segregation just fine.

no one's fucking saying it can't be done, just that it poses a fucking problem for a lot of people jfc.

we get it it doesn't effect you so you don't give a shit about it changing. calm down it probably won't and your life won't change in the least. thank god.

are they, though

i have a sneaking feeling that plutogender anon was 100% serious

(frozen comment) ayrt

[(Anonymous)]

let me dream, anon!

but if plutogender/"language barriers are problematic" anon is for real, it looks like the game dodged a bullet

is your aim to kill credibility of the position you're taking by making weird, offensive and baity exaggerations and comparisons?

you know how i spot an idiot?

they can't parse a parallelism or metaphor without plugging their ears over the literal meaning.

(frozen comment) Re: EVERY SHUT UP YOUR GREAT-GREAT-GRAND NONNY IS TALKING

anon you compared a language barrier in an online pretend game to the real life, living memory atrocity of segregation.

that's not parallel. at all. you're either *way* too upset about something that ultimately doesn't matter, or deeply belittling a real life historical struggle for civil rights.

no one is going to think you're making that kind of comparison seriously, because you shouldn't make that kind of comparison seriously, and if you are, for fuck's sake, touch some grass.

oh no someone used the same rational in a different and significantly worse context to point out that the logic is still flawed in a superficial context! the horror.

ayrt didnt say the consequences were the same just the thought process you degenerate.

They both have mustaches, but that does not make them the same

But it does mean they both have moustaches. so the same in some ways.

lol yeah ok every comparison is a false equivalence.

or at least all the ones that hurt your feeeeelings.

(frozen comment) Re: EVERY SHUT UP YOUR GREAT-GREAT-GRAND NONNY IS TALKING

[(Anonymous)]

i mean you could have made a relevant comparison to some issue in rp that was similar, that created a barrier to character interaction, that actually was a problem for a game.

instead you tried to say language barriers in games were the same as de jure racism.

relying on fallacies for "critical" thinking isn't critical thinking.

who the fuck taught you how to argue if you think that's a perfectly rational parallelism?

who the fuck taught you to argue if you can only take things 100% literally?

dwrp's conformist culture has gotten to the point that it's become mindnumbing, apparently. are the rpers here really that incompetent at thinking and learning new things? i didn't think they were.

ayrt has a valid point. just don't app, pass it by, and let the players who do find it appealing enjoy themselves without sabotaging the game for them. if a game isn't going to be for you, then that's all that there needs to be said and done about it.
