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'd say it really varies a lot. I definitely know more than a few players in their 30s and older. I'm 40 myself and definitely from the generation before computers and the internet were so entrenched in our lives. I started RPing in high school when I was about 16-17. Back then having a computer in your home was still rare, but most who did had some sort of dial up internet connection. I think a lot of people back then were into text based RP because it was quite easy to find various groups to RP with, but a lot also have drifted away from it to other hobbies or their lives have grown busy from things like marriage, careers and children.
