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.

Decide what potential pvp looks like and how it will be moderated very early on. Some people can do it but competition can and will bring out the worst in some people.

Keep the group small to start to give yourself time to get used to modding. Run an interest check and keep in mind that plenty of people can be encouraging but not actually app. If you want to make it private, consider whether you have enough reach to pull in a sustainable population.

Have a pitch that's a bit more direct than what you posted here, because "themes of" doesn't tell people as much about what the game is meant to be as something like "this is a zombie horror survival game set in the ruins of city x, where characters wake up from a coma with no idea how they got there and have to band together to survive" would. Also, figure out what will distinguish your game visually and play-wise from other horror and horror adjacent games, and make sure you lean into that.
