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.

A plurality of players don't want to put in the writing effort to flesh out a character and would rather RP on vibes. Word association is just about the easiest meme for lazy writers to get engagement.

ftr I'm not condemning it. If you're having fun sticking a character icon next to one random totally unrelated word and vibing out, then I guess that's RPing for you.

But I don't even click on that meme anymore. It's the opposite of what I want out of RP.

This describes that meme and its purpose well. I think a lot of its players know this deep down which is why a lot of comments to the op are hostile lol

"i think a lot of its players know this deep down" lmao anon please, they know this up top. it's not that deep. i promise you the ppl having fun in the word association meme rn are not writhing in shame over the idea of a rando thinking they're rp shallow

op crowing that it's bizarre for people to enjoy the meme and ~real writers~ should turn up their noses at it is an incredibly pretentious take on the barbie-mashing-for-kicks website, tho. of course people are rolling their eyes

comments to the op are hostile because it was a stupid fucking thing to say about people who enjoy the hobby differently from you

look i can be hostile even without participating in vibes-only rp
