#IK there are discords for RPing but I have NO idea how to get into those and again. I want to RP my random OCs not like. Warrior Cats

the need for me to develop the tons of new characters I’m getting myself vs not being good at characterizing without specific situations to imagine them in vs the fear of being cringe for randomly starting to post open RPs vs not being in any places where I can just RP random characters vs not being able to start a dedicated RP because I lost all my RP buddies years ago when I stopped RPing as much vs this really not working as a “this vs that” post now that I’ve added so many issues/clauses

#idk what this is #uhhhhh I have only ever RPed on Scratch so #if you know good places to like. RP as random characters (pref. furry/animal oriented?) then. let me know? #and I mean like free-form RP not like RPing systems like D&D or Pathfinder I just mean text RPs #stuff like P1:((OPEN RP)) River the wolf was hunting when she smelled an unfamiliar scent P2: Aspen realized he couldn't hide and said 'Hi' #and then they just. interact from there no real rules besides your standard 'no OP characters' & 'don't kill others w/o permission' #y'all know what I mean #also I have checked Scratch but all the furry/fursona RP studios without a pre-made world are inactive #IK there are discords for RPing but I have NO idea how to get into those and again. I want to RP my random OCs not like. Warrior Cats #altho I'm sure there are just. general furry ones. #maybe amino??? #OR if anyone would be interested in RPing my OC world... #like I mean I could make something dedicated for that #y'know... I'd love that... #doubt anyone is but you never know #ThornShadow.said

honestly your post is the reason i stopped rping on tumblr and only do 1x1 on discord. i get to just chill and have a good time with my friends without the anons and the stupid rpts. like they make jokes about how, "why haven't we bullied abc for xyz reason?" ik they think they're justified bc of the reason but joking about bullying and actually fucking doing it is not fucking funny.

this might not even be what you're talking about lmfao idk i'm just over it honestly. all the posts about how you have to do your research and do everything absolutely fucking perfect is tiring and i'm over it. like i rp instead of writing a novel bc i'm fucking lazy and don't want to spend 287 hours researching every detail of a plot i want to write. and having to play fcs to the exact specifications of who they are in real life to the point where i'm like, am i just rping as this person now??? yeah like 1x1 where i get to do whatever the fuck i want without rpts whining about about little damn thing people do was the best choice i ever made. sorry this rant makes no sense lmfao i just... hate the tumnlr rpc lol here's my advice guys. go to jcink. go to discord. go LITERALLY ANYWHERE ELSE.

exactly! i agree whole heartedly. i’ve been roleplaying with my small group of friends on discord for a while along with a bit of 1x1 here and there. though, its just upsetting to come back to a platform that shaped you into the writer you are and find these fucking awful people.  roleplaying in a group is not worth the mental fuckery that some of these admins and members put you through. its a group. it’s a roleplaying GAME. admins are not some sort of hierarchy who can judge other people based on if they “like them” or not. some admins act as if they’re bigger than the entire group. it gets down to the idea that you have to devote your entire life just to write this one character because god forbid if you have to be absent for a week.  hiatuses exist, yeah. but i still just dont understand what gives these people the right to be so fucking awful. and you know, i’ll be the first to say it. i’m not innocent. sometimes you do things to fit in places and sometimes you do mean things. the difference is that people who are actually sorry and want to grow from their mistakes ADMIT it and apologize.  thank you so much for sending me this ask. it helped me get some more thoughts off my chest. i really hope you’re doing well and taking care of yourself through this shitty time. you can always rant in my ask box, nonnie. i know sometimes we just need to rant together.
