sorry that people are sick of your majestic mcus

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 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.

if it's the default, then why do we have a meme specifically for tagging crosscanon?

Maybe for the very reason that many players aren't normally clear enough about their preferences? When you choose to play in a crosscanon meme, no one needs to ask "are you ok with crosscanon", which is what I see happening in other memes. It takes away that one step.

it's a meme that was created as an attempt to make people tag characters outside their canon

which sort of implies that tagging outside their canon isn't default for everyone. that's the point i'm making.

i think you're misunderstanding the point

"tagging outside their canon is the default" doesn't mean everyone has the same preference. yes obviously some people don't like tagging cross canon, and that's ok! that particular meme was created for those that do want cross canon and have trouble finding on other memes because lots of people only want castmates.

what people mean by "crosscanon is the default" is that if your top-level doesn't say you don't want X (it can be crosscanon or certain prompts or ANYTHING) then (general) your top level comes off as open to everything. that's the default in bakertreet: open.

if you aren't open to everything, if there's something you don't want to play, then you should say so on your top level. this is something we've repeating for years now. idk why everyone is so shocked. and don't give me the wank excuse, because i've seem "castmates only" used on top-levels before and nobody gave a fuck. +25 or +21 is being used a lot, too, and that saves teen players a lot of time.

the same reason we have the book character meme and like four separate texting memes serving different niches that can and often are all be covered by tfln, genius

to facilitate a hyper specific thing happening and to get people to do exclusively that

those memes are always fat flops because every meme is for tagging cross canon

it would be like having a ‘role playing meme’ where the instructions are a) post b) roleplay c) repeat

I don't think I've ever seen a full thread under stuff like the crossover couples/crosscanon friends memes
