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.

no matter what you should have an opt out post imo. idk if they ever get used, but i always feel like it's a "better to have" type thing.

but it kind of depends on the context, to answer your question. i tend to play a lot of incendiary characters (more on the shitstirring side than anything). i think the hardest thing about it is striking that balance that keeps them reasonably ic without also just being Awful To Thread With on a constant basis. sometimes that means toning it down, sometimes it means not even starting with the trait in particular.

also, something else to keep in mind is being prepared for consequences. no one likes a character that starts shit and then flakes out or whatever when they piss off the wrong character/start something bad
