help meme please

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.

More like they don't want to deal with the inevitable hissyfits that will come. First from someone who lost a username they wanted and second from people who have to get a rename token to claim those usernames.

as opposed to the comments they probably get on the regular asking for exceptions to be made or for them to consider doing this or asking when the next purge is going to happen?

Which do you think is easier? Telling someone no, you can't have this thing someone else claimed or telling someone that their thing was given to someone else who wanted it because they weren't using it?

Trust me on this, the former is much easier to deal with. The deployment thing may seem absurd, but it does say that Denise and the others aren't willing to deal with the backlash that is likely to come if they purge usernames that aren't deleted.

no, that's not it. virtually every other platform with a username mechanic does it. denise just has a moral stance on it, and it's dumb.

even tumblr did it

(Anonymous) 2019-06-06 02:50 am (UTC)(link)

dw devs just straight up don't feel like it, evidently
