Help! My rp partner hasn't invited me to play our OTP in their game! (´・ω・`)

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.

Is it just me or there is a strong preference for MCU characters on the tdm? I can’t help but notice it.

mcus tend to flock together in every game so it's not really that surprising

there's a strong preference for mcu characters everywhere atm. everyone's feeling the phase 4 fever, i doubt it'll slow down anytime soon.

no? i was being serious when i wrote this. op isn't the first person who's talked about dating and wanting to date in the community. all i'm saying is that for people who are interested in dating other rpers, it would be cute if there was a post or something for them to find each other.

i get that anons are pressed about abusers and toxic people in dwrp. granted there's a few of those in every hobby and we certainly have our share of offenders. but people shouldn't be shamed for wanting to date rpers if they choose to. plenty of players in this hobby are together despite being rpers themselves; the rp is just a springboard, they can choose to meet up or conduct their affairs outside of it like adults. imo the paranoia is understandable but unwarranted.

you should parent up before going off

This is such a weirdly hostile reply. Did your rp partner break your heart or something?

(Anonymous) 2021-08-24 03:23 pm (UTC)(link)
yeah we should all just die alone instead and spend our glory days getting mad at anons on rpa

(Anonymous) 2021-08-24 03:24 pm (UTC)(link)
holy shit, what do you do if people want to hang out at a convention or something? "NO you just want something from me it's my fault for trusting you fuck off!!!"

Ah, basically the game is going to be open world, but it started with a more narrow focus (with players only having access to a small portion of one kingdom instead of the full map) to ease people into the story. An event was originally going to be posted on the 13th that removed those limitations. Shortly before that date the mods made a plurk saying that they needed more time to set things up so that they wouldn't get overwhelmed in the aftermath of 50 players getting unleashed on the setting at once.

Given the scope of what they are probably working on, a delay is absolutely valid, since it's probably a lot of work. It's just that we haven't heard anything from them about it since the 12th and nobody really knows how long the delay is meant to be.

why are the options

1. pick up someone from playing internet barbies together
2. die alone

It hasn't even been two weeks yet, so I'm not worried. It sounds like the players are way more involved in the plot than they planned for, so they just need time to make the things they give us as detailed as possible.

(Anonymous) 2021-08-24 04:08 pm (UTC)(link)
those aren't the only options, but you gotta start somewhere

(Anonymous) 2021-08-24 04:09 pm (UTC)(link)
no! I have a lot, but those are usually the people I click with.

I can see the logic in starting from the assumption that most dwrpers are socially awkward enough to not have a life outside of rp

(Anonymous) 2021-08-24 04:20 pm (UTC)(link)
lmao calm down it's not that serious, you're making leaps and bounds with this logic. random posting about how i want a girlfriend with similar interests is creepy? how do you socialize if you consider that creepy?

roleplayers dating each other is by no means rare and i could have easily posted "rp community" because it's a big hobby of mine and sharing interests is ideal.

i was posting like every other person who does here, so no reason to be bitter.

you're valid nonny, don't let forever alone anon get you down

(Anonymous) 2021-08-24 04:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Isn't it more like they're already here anyway, so dating someone else here would be nice? It does save the issue of trying to explain dwrp to someone.

It's the people who think ic shipping = ooc feelings you need to look out for.

early 30s for me as well! I'm a fan of all genres in mediums, but I enjoy fantasy and sci-fi best! I'll honestly read anything if I really enjoy the characters and story. I think the most recent thing I've read was Made in Abyss, which I enjoyed!

so many! since you're a fan of shoujo though, my favorite shoujo series are Cardcaptor Sakura, Kamisama Hajimemashita, Fushigi Yugi, and Magic Knight Rayearth!

people should know how to separate their characters and themselves if they're in this hobby, it's a very visible line. most people don't interact with others in a bid to get with them though, even if they are single and looking.

are you really so maladjusted that the only way you can imagine two rpers dating is by them projecting through their characters?

The event just went up! It's all good.
