rpanons | something big going down in clown town

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

you breaking our engagement off over text is always going to hurt and i hope your marriage fails

a couple of months ago I had a good couple of threads with someone on bakerstreet. they've since disappeared and I hope it's just life being life! when they reappeared, I hope they're still up for what we were planning.

I want to RP from genuinely old movies, like stuff from the 40s and 50s, but have a feeling no one else here would want that :(

Holy shit I would love that

What movies?

right now I'm really obsessed with Dial M for Murder (1954) so that! but there's so many interesting characters and canons to pull from that we could be here all day :)

haven't thought about this show in years, decided to check the tag of a canon ship only to still see discourse about it vs. two others.

never change weebs.

as someone who rps characters from that era, i would soooooooooo want that

omfg which characters, anon?

teen pregnancy where they keep the baby and the consequences that come with it. couple could be together, a hook up, fallen out, idc. i just think it's an interesting scenario.

nah, it was never just wg. it always blew up on plurk and/or rpa at the same time

tired of the "well once in every year or two they call out actual shitheels" as an excuse for them being allowed to drag down the entire culture of dwrp the rest of the time tbh.

+1

I tried to start new things with them and got no reply despite the usual "I'd love to do more with [character]!" lip service

one day I'll accept that it's over

Longer than a year, shorter than two years, give or take.

we're keeping this broken clock around because it's right two whole times a day

i'm sorry, i should clarify! i play characters from contemporary things that are set in that era. don't want to get your hopes up, sorry

but i would still be excited to see your characters out and about!

I'm really enjoying the tdm of this!

caught up with the manga recently and completely fell in love with the development between these two and their complex relationship. i would prefer writing katsuki! up for pro hero timeskip, past/present canon, or au.

In my current game, I've had great CR but a few people I've threaded with had dropped our threads recently, which isn't a big deal at all, life happens! It's just when they dropped the threads we were doing but then continued to tag other threads, or tag into new stuff (I only knew this because they do tag plurks), it was a bit of a "feels bad." I've tried to brush it off, it's just they had specifically come to me to plot and say they wanted to do things, rather than me seeking them out, so if they dropped our stuff, it makes me wonder if maybe they didn't like my writing or felt we didn't vibe.

All of that is totally okay, but since they haven't reached out to plot again, I am left to wonder in the unknown, and then I don't know if I should just take that as a tacit sign not to reach out to them to plot since they haven't come to me since. I know this is nothing new in the sphere of RP, but just kicking up my anxiety extra.

As someone who has had to do this in the past I promise it is just life being life. It’s also possible that I’m not feeling the character anymore and I just don’t have the courage to tell people. I’m sorry if it was me, anon. :

i had lots of great threads going on bakerstreet as soon as a few months ago and then hit what has become one of the most stressful and busy periods of my life and that absolutely strangled my drive for tagging outside of a handful of easy threads which have also slowed down tremendously

i think theres a lot of life hitting people rn op, dont take it too personal
