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.

chiming with other anons that most of the time i'm canonblind to the other character in rp. in that sense my enjoyment is mostly proportionate to the writing quality, the level of fun & engagement i'm getting, and whether or not the personality being portrayed at least has an internal consistency and logic to it. all the pieces needed to spin up fun stories and plot future ones

ofc on the odd occasion i do thread with castmates i do actually know what to look for personality-wise, though idk i'm still not super fussy about specifics? if the other player mixes up a little backstory detail or smth every now and then idc, as long as i can still at least hear the character's voice in the tags and the player can hit the broad strokes of the character concept in a way that's fun to play against

i think in all my years of rp i've only had like...exactly one time? where i was literally like "he would not fucking say that" about a castmate tag? it was a rando hitting me up on a meme with a guy who's an actively suspicious and distrustful stern cop type towards my guy in canon, and in the handful of tags we exchanged i got nothing but flirty eye-batting dialogue trying to get my guy in his bed. which was like. man that was my fave ship in the canon specifically for the potential of enemies to lovers...i love this pairing....but literally who is this

like did you even consume the canon at all or did you just pick up this man based off some sexy doujin of this pairing you found somewhere. surely even the doujin would have at least had an erotic arrest attempt or a sexually-charged interrogation first tho?? tbh maybe that's what annoyed me more than the actual oocness lol, like i'll roll with a lot of character-bending for the sake of a fun pairing but there's no fun at all in an unrecognizable castmate actively sucking the fun aspect (slowburn ust) out of the ship in question...

coughs anyway. yeah i've found that the vast majority of dwrp isn't that off-base with their characters, so there's a 99% chance you're probably fine op

Have had this happen to me with a ship too. Though he wasn't trying to get in my char's pants, but it was a case of 'Yeah he would never say that' sadly it was a mod playing him, and badly. I ended up dropping from the game, partly because of them and partly for other reasons.

For the most part though I'm pretty canonblind with a lot of stuff, but I'm not that much of a stickler either. When it's something really ooc for a character with no basis, I will generally not tag with them. Haven't run into too many people like that though.

for the most part i think most castmates i've had are broadly ic. i might not always agree with their interpretation for smaller details, but generally they sound the same until they angle for a ship.

there's probably only one or two in recent memory i could think of that was ooc enough for me that made it difficult to play with them, and their writing wasn't engaging enough for me to want to keep them around either. one shipped the characters and stripped all the negative traits of their character towards mine which made it weird to tag them, the other just flipped the personality entirely and sounded more like the player than the character.
