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 post personal information. This includes but is not limited to full names, addresses, phone numbers and so on.
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.

true. tbh i've been away from dwrp for a long time and only came back to see if anything has changed.

- last i checked we are still p dependent on plurk for OOC communication & game announcements. plurk's format isn't exactly my favorite tbh.

- blurring ic/ooc is debatable. while we're not as bad as other places, there are still cases of people getting too attached to their rp/ship partners even here.

- sometimes it feels like pulling teeth to find decent writers who will not drop threads five comments in and/or are clearly just threading just to meet their activity requirements.

- not sure if this is an unpopular opinion but i really don't worry too much about writing quality. then again i'm not sure most people here care either but. idk. as long as the other person is trying and not being treegate levels of OOC, i can roll with it even if their writing isn't the best.

that said i think you and other anon who replied to you have a good point. rp culture itself can be p immature sometimes. maybe it's time to move on. :(

what i did when i was feeling this way anon was i cut out rp as my main-ish hobby and focused on other things, and whenever i do feel like it i have a couple of friends i thread with who don’t mind delays and who i don’t mind delays from. then i started checking out memes and found a couple people who looked like they reliably tagged back and whose writing i liked and tagged them. i got rid of plurk and i communicate with bakerstreet strangers via pm or even just subject lines, and that’s about it.

taking out the largely performative social aspect of rp, outside of friends who i talk about things other than rp with anyway, and being realistic about my time and interest have made me enjoy the hobby much more. varying my hobbies has helped a lot too.

idk if any of this will help you but fwiw i don’t think it’s bad to have grown out of the hobby either. it happens sometimes and think of it as having time to pick up something new you might enjoy!
