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.

hmm, i'm not saying at all that it's weird for people of different ages to share spaces online in general–i'm talking about rp. to me the rp community is more insular and intimate than like, some random anonymous forum because of its nature as a shared writing hobby, and even adults can weirdly project their feelings onto other adults in it. people wank about that all the time. and lbr, a huge portion of the community IS centered around romance and smut and shipping, etc, and that's something that's not going to pop up in a knitting group, which doesn't really make it interchangeable–again, even if you're only rping gen stuff with the kids/teens, it's still happening there in the background, whether that means it's being referenced in anon comms, plurk, elsewhere in the game, etc. you WOULD have to tread lightly to make sure to keep it all separate–again, just to err on the side of caution–and while i could do that, what if someone else doesn't?

i just think it's so important to be safe rather than sorry about these things. maybe 9/10 kids would have a great experience rping with adults, but to me it's not worth it for the sake of that 1 who doesn't. that stuff has the potential to mess you up for life.

i mean, how old were you at the time? and would you prefer then that you had waited until you were 18+ now?

i was young, and at least in my circles rp was younger in general then, so most of the people i rped with were other under-18s. there were a few adults, though. i don't think i should have waited, but i definitely wish that i'd only rped with people my own age. i ran into a few things with adults that i thought i was equipped to handle but looking back i absolutely wasn't, and i regret that.
