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.

would u like a hint uggo-seeking anon

yeah, this is exactly the problem. it's easy to say "i'd love to play in a game with x" because you're not the one who has to actually implement x into the game. there are a lot of things that would be fun to have as a player that would be a nightmare for the modteam.

yes please

he is purple

thought so. couldn't find him on recent memes tho

hopefully i'll see him soon

the actual cringiest is easy to pick out of a crowd lmao the last meme i threw him on is AMA, i'll be doing more top levels after work tomorrow and all weekend so pls bother him wherever you see him friend anon

tag, you're it

we could encourage input from players without being condescending and nasty to them, though

I remember there used to be an AC scraper that could find threads and count them a long time ago, is that what you're talking about? Or is there something new?

the things we are most thirsty for are the fastest to dry up

i still think that one thing that might help is actually sharing with the playerbase and trusting them more to come up with ideas that wont break a game

a handful of mods doing all of this themselves is a lot of work but i still feel player suggestions are a workable solution. sure, its still work for the mods to review the suggestions, discuss amongst themselves, and then adapt if something doesnt work but i feel like discussion and review is actually less of a burden than coming up with unique ideas wholesale

that said if a mod team really did want to take all of this on themselves they dont have to implement this idea every ac. try making it a recurring mini-event instead, something that runs every other month or every three months or every four months. have it be something like everyone wakes up to something special and you can come up with bonuses inbetween mini-events. if someone drops? save the idea or adapt it

Both characters are taken away from their homes like in the jam-jar game, and in this new world they're assigned spouses upon arrival. This time, you're supposed to make it work and find a way to be a happy couple. Though the age difference is making it tough, on top of being from different worlds. We can add tropes like sharing a bed, breeding, fake dating and parenting (if you prefer they get assigned a kid too), and adultery if your character isn't satisfied with their assigned partner or wants more than one.

Open to add kinks you want to play. Preference for drawn icons. Not interested in live-action or iconless. Leave a sock!

sa

also lee was hot af, would thirst for desperately in the realm of rp

you can find vash and wolfwood icons here: https://malagraphic.dreamwidth.org/tag/%21trigun from

malagraphic!

i hate that this is so true every mcfucking time

hell yeah

Oh my gosh, I just saw it- it looks so cool!

I thought we're not supposed to discuss games that aren't open yet?

I think we're allowed to show excitement for a community that's not open yet but it seems to have plenty of potential. I think you may be thinking about wankgate...? Maybe? IDK.

wg has a 'no wanking on games that haven't opened yet' rule. this is rpa. you can discuss a new/unopened game.

just speaking in general, there tends to be a lot of mistrust and aggression towards hypothetical players from "mods" who participate in these threads (all probably earned tbh), but if we could just can that for a hot second, maybe a fresh mind and pair of eyes can come up with some creative workaround like you've written here. not every potential mod on RPA is a burnt out husk of their former selves, so even challenging ideas could work with enough creativity and the right team of mods and players.

and that's the purpose of brainstorming threads, isn't it? does anyone expect a game to spring forth fully formed from this thread? i don't, but ideas for people to think about are always good

and ftr i agree that a game like this would require some faith in your players to be workable without burnout

i want to start a game. i have this idea i love and did a ton of work for it. its mildly unique and there arent other games in its niche currently. id love to play in it. people ive spoken to said it was a good idea. but im a very quiet player. my CHARACTERS in games are popular but i dont talk out of character to people. i dont have a huge group of rp friends. im too afraid to try and fail. feels lame.

Majority Rule is a panfandom space exploration game where characters find themselves traveling on an AI-guided ship which operates under the "Majority Rule Protocol". The path the ship takes and the ordinances the crew operates under as they travel are determined entirely by regular in character and out of character polls run by both the moderators and players.

First test drive! We would appreciate replurks.

My concern would be: what happens if players make suggestions and the mods ultimately say 'no'? Back in the LJ days, I was in a small game where the mods did take a couple of suggestions but turned down others for being time-consuming. The suggestions they took were good ones. But a handful of players started resenting the mods for not taking their suggestions as well, with open accusations of favoritism, while the mods were left in the awkward position of trying to explain why their idea wasn't workable.

Which isn't to say that player suggestions are bad, or all players would react this way. In some games, this might work great. But I've also seen the bad outcome on this.

I think I'm burned out. I have no drive to tag at all. I don't even want to sit and talk about my characters on plurk like I usually do, I just have no creative juices left. Every time I think about tagging I just sit there staring at the empty text box for hours and then give up. I've had this before but never this bad :(
