oh, dreamwidth park is lonely in the dark/all the horny memes have no tag-outs

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.
Do not solicit money, Dreamwidth points, or other currency unless you are offering a good or service in return.

Morally, I think the best answer is 'as soon as I realize they're interested', whether that's on a TDM or interest check.

Realistically, though, I would pretend to not see it until they give a more concrete indicator of interest, like reserving or apping.

I know everyone is saying School A, but the fact that you admit School B is an anecdote in which your partner "felt a noncon scene had been strung on them" ...I need more info here because that's a huge red flag.

Most people do want School A, not School B, because most people aren't looking for IC negotiations. However, most people are looking for ic affection and kindness, so if your character isn't going to be kind and considerate of theirs during a sex scene, then you need to specify that beforehand.

Like if their character is crying or nervous, or says "that hurts," your character shouldn't just proceed with business as usual. That's noncon, and against what you discussed. If their character seems at all uncomfortable with what's happening (or about to happen), then your character should show concern for theirs, or else it becomes dubcon at best. IC negotiations like "can I kiss you?" aren't usually necessary or wanted by dwrpers, but a "Hey, are you okay?" from a top character or "Yes, that feels good!" from a bottom during a stressful or painful moment can go a long way in making sure a scene stays consensual.

Kink negotiation doesn't have to be a forced, ooc-feeling lessons in SSC/RACK. It can be "You know, you'd look really sexy in handcuffs." And then if their character is into it, you thread it out, or if they're not, your characters laugh about it and then use it to discuss what they ARE into. Some of my favorite threads have kink discussion like this.

+1, it can literally be part of foreplay

i'm actually baffled that there are people who find it boring unless they're thinking of it as something that people just have to write that can't possibly be in-character

idk it turns out non-consensual kisses are a BIG DEAL in some games

"ironic pain is being that person"

joke about proofreading being my real issue here

Unfortunately, a lot of times that's exactly how kink negotiation is played out. I actually love it as a kink but I avoid a lot of fics with that tag because 90% of the time it's an excuse for the author to flex the 5 minutes of BDSM research they did.

It sucks because kink negotiation should be an intimate and trusting back and forth, or sexually charged interpersonal power play, but so many writers just treat it like a boring lecture.

i once knew someone who moderated a game and let someone they disliked app so they could have the "joy of rejecting them". people can be weird.

that said +1 to reserve or if you decide to ban them at the emp or tdm stage and know they're on there.

why'd you reach out to me twice letting me know you were still interested in continuing out psl if you weren't going to continue our psl...? ;~; i miss our thread though, so i do hope you'll come back to it

i'm school C (as above anon described) with a dash of school a. when i play smut/kink threads it's usually in a situation where the general gist of the scene and associated kink are already on the table (foerex, it's the abo meme, or a detailed kywtp prompt), i'll look at the other character's kinklist if they've got one, and then just go for it. i always make it clear to the other player that i'm down to change tags or fix things if they want, and maybe if the thread goes someplace i'll reach out ooc to the other player to discuss new scenes and more kinky stuff.

but i play very few characters and threads where much if any kink/smut negotiations would be IC, so that could change if i pick up a new character who's savvy about bdsm stuff or cares a lot about making sure their partners are comfy

I'd say it's Other/Mixed Genre. It's a Survival game, but it definitely has Horror elements.

"earnestly: is it somehow a given that you're not supposed to suggest characters someone might recognise?"

In ye olden days it was actually a pretty big deal and people would get annoyed if you picked a too popular character/actor as a PB, both because of overexposure and a judgemental "how dare this OC upstart try to trick people into thinking they're a canon character" sort of way.

These days people don't care about OCs and PB choice as much, but OC players generally don't want to be mistaken for a canon character anyway.

is it actually possible to mute a plurk user? if so how do you do it?

if not, dang

(Anonymous) 2023-12-13 12:40 am (UTC)(link)
hit the unfollow button?

you can unfollow somebody without unfriending them, so you guys would still be on each other's friends lists, but their plurks just won't appear on your timeline at all

(Anonymous) 2023-12-13 12:40 am (UTC)(link)
you can unfollow them if they're your friend. you just go into their profile and click unfollow or do it from your friends list. however that just means their plurks don't show up, you'll still see them in plurks they don't make.
