rpanons | the masses thirst for the smallest drop of wank

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.

it's okay to put this down, anon. i can't promise that other hobbies won't bring their own drama, and that other friendships won't sometimes bring abusers into your life, but if this has become a toxic place for you it's okay to step back.

it might be scary, it might feel like there's nothing else to fill that void. but there can be, and there will be, with time and putting yourself out there. you can't take it all back, but if you want to make a change, there are lot of new memories ahead of you to make. you're always allowed to change your mind.

i'm sorry that you're going through it. venting it is healthy, whatever you decide to do.

they weren't patronizing you. they took the time out of their day to write a comment to try to make you feel better.

lol jeez i think at 34 years old you can find a new hobby because clearly you are unwell here

assuming she's an rper too, if the only thing she's "thriving" and "getting off scot free" is getting threads on dwrp then like...... ok? this hobby isn't that serious. it's just writing in the end. the irl stuff you went through though, i'm sorry that you suffered like that and i hope you can get help to unpack that. but it isn't going to be in an rp woe thread where you explode at a person who was being perfectly kind and understanding

bruh you have gotta block this site and move on

gonna be point-blank with you here, anon: you need therapy because you're not mentally well. none of what you're saying is at all reasonable on any level.

you need therapy anon

if you don't want to talk to faceless strangers, i get it, but i'd really suggest you talk to someone. even if you don't think they'll understand. there are resources for SA out there, and you don't have to give more details than you want to. ive found RAINN really helpful, with the disclaimer that I'm based in the US. I don't want to discount the rest of what you're going through, but from what you've said here, that experience has shaped how you see your time here and the hobby.

don't worry about being polite or nice or whatever to some rpanon replier. that doesn't matter right now. there are people out there who want to hear about how it feels, and some who have felt it with you. there are communities out there. when you have the bandwidth, you're worth trying to find it. that doesn't have to be tonight.

you're right that no one understands what you are going through because they aren't you, but this anon isn't patronizing you. they have nothing to do with what you feel, or what you are going through. it is not on them to understand you, and like others have said, you need professional help that a hobby cannot give you. i'm sorry about what happened to you, but a bunch of faceless anons in a public comm is not where you should be sharing this.

🤨

Leave the hobby and go to therapy. You can actually change your life at any time.

I feel this so intensely but for a different hobby that involved spending a lot of $$$ just to hang out with elitists and unfriendly people in a niche hobby. my point is, I feel your pain and I get it. all that money and photos and for what?

I guess the only thing we can do is accept that we did the best we could with the knowledge we had at the time. I would try and remember the good times you did have, and try and put a lot of distance between yourself and rp in general. don’t visit the site, don’t engage in fandom behavior that reminds you of it, and avoid anoncomms for a long time. I’ve left dwrp without a care a while back and came back with the idea that I can leave anytime. you should feel the same, you’re not a prisoner here.

if it doesn't make you happy, then quit. find something that does. there's a million things out there that you can do. it's a hobby; it's meant to bring you joy, not stress.
