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.

Between full time jobs and mismatched time zones sometimes that's the best that can be done, nonnie. You learn to cut to the heart of the thread quickly.

and honestly I'm overjoyed if I find someone that tags a thread once a day. Three tags a week is common when so many people are in three games and devote Friday to TFLN.

genuine question, why do people keep acting like full time jobs have anything to do with it? all of the people i know who do 100+ tags a month have full time jobs and the vast majority of them can't/don't tag during work hours.

ime it's the people who don't have full time jobs who are the biggest flakes and i'm honestly fascinated by this because they don't even have the excuse of working full time.

people who have full time jobs often manage their time well. they usually dedicate a specific time in the day to rp which means consistent tagging due to habit and momentum

unemployed flakes get caught in the trap that is “i can rp whenever, i have the whole day!” so they fuck around all day then whoops it’s bedtime with nothing done. rinse and repeat

I think it would depend on what kind and how long the hours of the job is. Some people definitely find it hard to tag after work and can only manage on weekends due to being tired, and some are able to schedule it daily and keep up momentum well. I'v seen full time jobs affect people's pace in different ways, some because they use rp to feel more energized and others finding it too much for their tired brains.

That said it's a factor for some but not for all. From my observation a lot of it comes down to energy levels, time management, and number of other hobbies/distractions. Also mental health.

your experience is not universal. "my friend can tag after work so everyone should be able to" is a dumbass thing to say.

the unemployment and the poor time management might be connected, did you think of that
