Rundown: rpanons is an anonymous community for fictional character 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.
Do not solicit money, Dreamwidth points, or other currency unless you are offering a good or service in return.
Discussion of or soliciting RP for celebrities or other non-fictionalized versions of real people is not allowed.

is the anti-spam thing not working for anyone else? i'm trying to make a new journal and getting a "Sorry, the anti-spam test is not available right now. Please wait and try again" error.

i wanted to check if it was a me issue or a site issue before sending an email to support.

[(Anonymous)]

Site issue and apparently there is going to be a maintenance post about it?

dw tools

[(Anonymous)]

dw tools question... (probably a dumb one, i'm sorry)

i just downloaded it for the first time. i know some people said it doesn't work but some people say it does. so far it looks like the text/action tag feature works and the browse icons one for non-paid. but someone mentioned the bulk upload icon feature, where do i find that?

Re: dw tools

[(Anonymous)]

bulk upload tool has been broken for a while. another anon mentioned they were fiddling with an alternative

Re: dw tools

[(Anonymous)]

bulk upload still works for me anon, but i've found it only pops up from this url: https://www.dreamwidth.org/manage/icons

if you're in the url that has your username in it, the bulk upload option won't appear

Re: dw tools

[(Anonymous)]

it shows up on the upload icon page, but for me it only works on chrome, and has never worked on firefox (for years now)

shout out to the people who reply to their tags in order
i appreciate that so much, thank you

[(Anonymous)]

Does it bother you that people don't? If so, why?

[(Anonymous)]

what does 'in order' mean? chronologically, oldest to newest? from top to bottom on their notification page (dw or email)?

[(Anonymous)]

I try to do this but sometimes I’m just itching for that latest tag I got.

[(Anonymous)]

How do you know they are?

[(Anonymous)]

if you're reading this, don't feel bad if you aren't answering your tags in order

it doesn't matter and your partners won't notice unless 1. they are stalking you??? or 2. you are booming another thread right in front of them (which is allowed, but you know what you did)

[(Anonymous)]

this is such a bizarre comment

stop stalking your thread partners
maybe ooc behaviour pushes you to the bottom of the pile

[(Anonymous)]

test

stop getting threads frozen because you're all projecting over stuff no one said

thanks

thanks

I do a lot of commenting around on other people's rp meme plurks. No one ever comments on mine. Occasionally someone will like and I'll glance at it but the like has vanished. Probably into a mute.

But they all like my roleplaying and can't get enough of my characters and want to know more about them, promise.

Expecting reciprocal validation from this community is only going to lead to disappointment, nonny. If your threads are fun, focus on them instead.

RP Partners vs Friends

[(Anonymous)]

Basically, do you consider RP partners to be friends? More specifically, do you tend to talk to previous RP partners once your threads ends or after you share a game?

I’m sort of seeing that once I leave a game and people who I talked to daily (OOC, about both fandom and RL things) no longer have active CR going, we sort of drop each other. Is this the same for most people, or am I just unlucky?

Re: RP Partners vs Friends

[(Anonymous)]

There's different levels of friendship. I have over a hundred plurk friends and speak to most of them solely through plurk or sometimes on ooc comms when we share a game. I don't remove people I get alone with after we no longer share games, but my plurk friends aren't people I speak to one on one with a lot of frequency. They're like, if this was high school, friendly faces I'd go sit next to in a classroom but probably not people I'm hanging out with after school. Not because I don't like them but because we're more casual. I would hang out if asked! But it's just not our usual situation.

People I talk to daily, like in your example, I mostly speak to on discord or in private and I continue to speak to them after we drop games or such. Some slow down on speaking as often when we don't have shared CR but I don't remove anyone I'm at that level with and I try to speak to them every few days or once a week if nothing comes up.

I think it really depends on the people involved. It takes effort to keep up a friendship when you stop sharing specific hang out times (RP, or IRL meetups) and you need to make new hang out times/activities to keep things going strong. Maybe a mini book club or watching shows together. That's been my go to.

i don't really go to dwrp anymore (and when i did it was very briefly), but i do be reading rpanons and such every so often —

who the hell are ultradude, moosechangerpat, and oddeyes i am asking so innocently thank you

What games are friendly for anime and video game/gacha game characters that aren't locked sex games?

[(Anonymous)]

most of them i think

[(Anonymous)]

anyone having problems with other people's plurk friends lists not opening when you click on them? seems to mostly happen with custom plurk layouts for me.

[(Anonymous)]

that's generally by design. in settings you can turn off the ability for other people to view your friends list so it pulls up blank or whatever. is that what you mean?

[(Anonymous)]

Notifs down for anyone else?

[(Anonymous)]

seems to be working for me

[(Anonymous)]

thinking of deleting my plurk. all it does is make me paranoid. i notice i comment a lot on other people's stuff but i don't get the same energy back. i notice how many people prefer to talk about rp instead of rping. i was happier without plurk. it's not netting me any more rping than i got when i didn't have one. kinda wish i never made one tbqh
