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.

museboxes require too much creativity to come up with ideas on the fly for most dwrpers.

that's why you get people who join games that aren't sol focused but then only focus on sol things. they want the fun setting without the work involved in making it.

i want this so bad. i'd make a holly heights-esque game with mechanics like genessia's. that's so much work to do tho

Re: +1

[(Anonymous)]

what are the mechanics you like about both these? (sorry in ever played in either)

Re: +1

holly heights: slice of life, characters are arranged into families (easy cr). i'm more into character relationships than big action plots

genessia: no apps, no ac (there's a check in every few months, i think?)

I dig SoL way more too. I'd like to hear more about this one— were people families as in they're actually deemed related by some rule in the premise? or like they're faction and housed together for some reason? How small was the setting? What did plots/events etc look like in the hollyheights comm?

Re: +1

they weren't actually related, but housed together in parent/spouse/child roles. i never got the chance to play there, so maybe another anon can chime in about events

the comm is still up if you want to look around https://hollyheights.dreamwidth.org/profile

oo thanks! I'm dead curious!

that makes sense. so what about a musebox with constant prompts? (which is basically a meme comm i realize as I'm writing this. so maybe i should be wondering what a different take on a typical meme would be.)

you're right about people joining genre games with plots and then doing SoL stuff there, but I'm so put off by the idea of having to keep up with AC on some premise i don't care about just to get some good CR out of people. so i guess i wonder, do people need the setting or just the prompts?
