Makin' my blorbos smooch is what gets me through the hard times

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.

The point is y'all were reacting to a thing that was not said by me, at any point, as if I were one of the other anons you were having an argument with about white lies. You are ascribing sweeping additional statements to a single line joke about weird people in this hobby, and the dogpile of "actually YOU'RE the problem, you white liar" responses to a seemingly entirely different conversation than the joke I made is why it comes off as aggressive.

Also, if you're trying to persuade people that communication is ok and safe to do, it helps not to downplay people's experiences. We have stories on here every other day about overinvested rpers being weird at someone for one reason or the other, and I'm sure there are people who have had some pretty upsetting experiences that, while not the majority, have still stuck with them in a bad way. Talking down to them as if they're worried about nothing, no matter how right you may or be, isn't going to convince them.

i think people have a right to share their experiences as equally valid, though? which is what they have been doing in this thread. the fact that they are doing so does not negate yours. the only person who can be said to be downplqying is the anon who effectively said if 90% of (generic) your tagmates are wankers, maybe you're the problem - but even they said, '90%' (at which point, yeah, if someone keeps running into that extreme of rotten apples, possibly they need to curate their space a bit more)

what, exactly, was your joke. i'm so lost.

you mean "I want to live in the alternate universe ayrt inhabits where socially maladjusted weirdos aren't painfully common in this hobby"? because yeah everyone got that was a joke, but you also gave +1 to the previous comment, which is why you were included in the group of "the other side of the argument".

i don't even care about this argument anymore. i'm genuinely shaking my head at how you're taking this. i'm not saying this in a condescending way and i apologize if it comes off that way. but you keep saying things about anons attacking you for things that you "didn't say" and that's just taking things way too personally. we've always used the general you/we to mean all the people on each side. people just happen to reply to the last comment in the chain. no wonder you think people are using "personal attacks" if you think they're for you specifically
