if ur breath were baited, it would smell fishy

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.

will dreamwidth ever show up in google results again because its impossible to find icons now

big shrug. they blocked the scraper bots that let you index search with google so unless they have a change of heart and unblock them for some reason id assume no.

the only thing i can say is to find some icon comms and track them, or the dwrp disco server, as it has a bot that posts links whenever certain ones update. [community profile] dwrp_icons still seems to be pretty active and well indexed

i've never used google to find icons. i just go to bakerstreet or dear player/mun and check where the other people got theirs. nowadays dwrp-icons too. tumblr has shifter their icon making and is using a style/size like ours so if you go on the tag "(canon name) icons" you may find some

the only time i used google was to search on insanejournal, which you can still do. ij is a great source of icons

if enough people ask Matt about it on the public maintenance posts there's a strong possibility he'll put it back, to be honest

he's already said that he's considering changing it back again so users just need to request it in namespace

i hope people do not do this because it would be nice to keep our hobby off the radar of wider fandom presence and rubberneckers and lessen random traffic to dreamwidth now that it's not on something as robust as cloudflare. "but muh icons" is not a great reason to put the site under more strain or scrutiny.

"i do NOT want more people to participate in my hobby actually" lmfao shut up

anon dreamwidth existed just fine in Google searches for the last decade and nobody tried to invade your smut games or whatever you're worried about

it would be nice to be able to search for old threads and icons again though

+1

IJ shows up in search results and I've never once been asked to account for my Star Trek tentacle porn. Nobody is looking for this.

I agree I don't want it back, but not because of random non-dwrp people -- because of other rpers stalking my bakerstreet threads.

lmao

don't need google for that, sweaty

https://www.dreamwidth.org/search

you can search much of the website (at least for profiles/communities that haven't selected 'don't make me searchable') with this.

I get all my icons on IJ. They're catalogued better. Check wikicon if you haven't.
