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.

NA and it’s the former examples that get me with this kind of thing. I’m not gonna blow up at anyone who white lies and whether or not someone is feeling tags on a particular day is harmless enough to fib about; the other examples are a lot more serious. I would like to be able to talk to my rp partners and trust what they’re saying when we’re planning out a smut scene or a serious plot, and if I end up feeling like I need to second guess everything my partner says that’s just exhausting.

I think also the problem is sometimes there's no need to even tell a white lie about it. Just leave it be, tag what you want, if someone comes to you, and they're a close friend then just be honest.

But in reality, not everyone in rp has only good, close friends. ppl are in games, have big groups, and don't always wanna engage deeply. So I guess I get both sides here.

AYRT

Good point regarding games, being thrown in with a bunch of random strangers, etc.

At this point I think a lot of rpers getting frustrated with these behavior patterns would be doing themselves a favor to just gently distance from the CR that is frustrating them. There's no arguing another rper into tagging faster or paying you (general) more attention in a way that isn't incredibly toxic, so it's better to just go find something else to do. If the player who's not feeling threads or telling white lies or whatever really wants that cr, they are fully capable of reaching out for it too.

Agreed anon. In the end, the people who love your tags and your writing will make it clear to you.

I’m sympathetic to this mood because I’ve struggled with really wanting cr with another person to work out when they’re just not that into me TM, but again: you cannot argue or nag someone into caring about cr with you as much as you care about cr with them. You gotta have some means of coping with the situation that doesn’t make it the other person’s problem.

with that kind of approach... it probably won't happen for you, so yes, absolutely. hobbies should be fun and joyful, if you go in with that vibe, you'll get it back.
