  • The reason it will be a long time until I join a group RP (or at least a large one) is because I enjoy making characters and seeing other peoples characters more than I do dealing with the chaos that is a lot of people posting in one thread.

    Also the fact that I enjoy really long posts (1000-ish words) and do not post often (once a week) but those are different issues entirely.
    When done well, one of my favorite things to do in RPs is for you to describe your character and then I describe your character but from my eyes. It's adds perspective and often is very different

    For example, I was once playing this tall noble dude (tall, dark, and handsome of course) but my partner looked at my face claim and had her character respond describe him as cute but with spider like limbs! It was great!

    Sorry, no can do. School is crazy at the moment I can barely keep up with my current RPs.
    I only get to have 8 hours worth of REAL alone time a week when my roommate goes to work. But this week I didn't even get half of that because of the holiday. I like my roommate, I do, but I need way more solitude than what I am getting.

    There was a chance of her sleeping over at someones house tonight (which would have been the first time ever) but because of shitty weather I may not get that either.

    I don't mind having a roommate, I just wish I had one that was away from the room a bit more often. Still, I wouldn't pay more to get a room to myself. I'm cheap!

    Both apply to me, actually. I do enjoy being around in the presence of my friends or simply people who are enjoyable to be around, but I also need my fair share of time to myself. I'm cheap too, so when the time comes I may have to make a decision between my level of comfort and price. eek

    I'd at least try a roommate. If you find that you can't deal with not having unlimited alone time, then the next year you get a single. Better to try the cheaper option first, then go from there.
    Doing a project in Anthropology where a different student (stranger) will study an aspect of your culture first hand. The problem? I have no life, I sit in my room and do homework all the time, and I have no friends either. A possible solution? I talk about this site but dear god I do not want to show someone I don't know the RPs I do and the site I do it on. Its embarrassing but I have nothing else.

    OH of course I don't mind! (And btw I didn't mean to imply you were doing something wrong or anything; I mentioned it 'cause you were embarrassed at the thought of sharing and I wanted to ease your mind on my end.) ^.^ YES THO! MAKE HIM SAY "ALOIS" OUT LOUD, SEE IF HE DOES IT RIGHT.

    Nah I know you did not mean anything was wrong, I just wanted to ask rather than assume you would be okay with it :)

    OF COURSE! :D And I do plan on getting to my reply soon heh heh.
    I cannot handle getting bad grades on essays. It's the one thing I let myself think that I am good at and if teachers start giving me bad grades for them I am going to break. I know writing skill is not the only factor when it comes to grades but getting a bad score means I did bad at everything

    It's even worse when my roommate, not a good writer at all, may have gotten a better grade than me. I can't help comparing
    The joy of school... you can work your ass off all year but when your grades come down nearly completely to an exam or essay, it doesn't mean shit. My grades are not even that bad but I know that for all the work I put in I should have better.

    My good mood is ruined now. Lovely.
    What did I learn today at Declare a Major Day? Not what majors I'm interested in, that's for sure!

    No, what I learned was that I am a much weaker person when I have companionship. I talk less, am less likely to take even low risks, I'm less assertive, I don't make as much of an impression, etc etc. It's not (always) that I rely on them either, it's more like I'm hyper aware that I am not alone and getting observed
    The world has yet to realize that if you make me use realistic face claims in a setting that has fantasy, I can almost guarantee that I am going to go get a cosplay image because even if I am playing a human, it was way to hard to find a magical (or medieval) looking face claim among all the shirtless, personalty lacking guys google gives me.
    Here is a problem has caused multiple issues with new partners. When I say I like dark topics there is a line that I draw between dark violence and dark depressing.

    For example, I am okay with stalkers, obsession, and anger issues. However, I do not find it fun to play against suicide, cutting, and teen pregnancy characters.

    Is there a better word to describe what I like rather than the word 'dark'?

    No problem. If school is your preferred setting, I'd be happy to plan a plot with you. :)

    It is a favorite setting of mine, however I don't know if we would match as partners. For starters, my average post is around 1000 words. I can shoot you a link to one of my past interest checks and/or PM you if you are truly interested though.

    Maybe maybe not, as I tend to write paragraph long responses, more sometimes. But about one paragraph is my average, which I understand just isn't for some people. That's okay. I'll pm you.
    If I started a new RP, I don't even know what I would want to do. It's a strange mix of having too many ideas but not having anything even remotely set in stone.

    As cliche as it is, I am determined to one day have a successful school RP. I love that setting and I fully believe that it can work long term and be original if you get the right partner. Same deal with the seven deadly sins, my number one favorite trope.

    There are more important things to a post than word count, yes, but personally I enjoy and need length in my RPs. It is impossible for me to like a RP with only a handful of paragraphs since most RPs that I love have posts at least 1.5 pages in Word. To me, quantity is a large part of quality. Other people can have their preferences and I do not judge them for that, but these are mine.

    most def! people have their preferences, i have my own of course! id just rather base my judgement off of the content of the post and not how long it is. long posts are great, i love having tons to read and reply to.

    Of course the week I have about 2/3 papers to write is the week I feel like being creative/write. If I didn't know I would regret it within two days, I would look for partners....

    See, I find brainstorming, making characters, and coming up with a plot more fun than actually RPing... It's a problem honestly. It's rare that I keep the same excitement that I have during the planning stage during the writing portion. Due to this, I always have WAY to many rps and have to be the bad guy because I won't write for an RP that feels like a chore now. Even if I love the idea, I may not love to write it.

    Ooh interesting! For me it’s like, I love them all but don’t have time to devote. ^.^ Anyway you should have a post this weekend!

    Looking forward to it!
    It's such a small thing, but I rarely ever write stories (I barely RP either) but today I wrote 3 pages and would probably do more if I did not have to go to bed for school tomorrow. I'm not a big fan of what I wrote but I am glad that I did it anyway. Better to write lame fan fiction than nothing!
    I don't care how many times I do it, I adore making stories/Rps centered around the seven deadly sins. It is my favorite trope and nothing will change that.
    I normally try to keep offline drama to myself, but hey, no one is awake where I am so this is the only place I have to vent. Oh well! I won't make a habit of it!

    I smiled at that. I can relate so much. That is why I tell others they can vent to me because I know the struggles. Besides it is okay. Like an eye for an eye, you vent to me and I will vent to you.

    It's a sad day when people on the internet are nicer than those in real life... But RPN has always had nice people so why am I surprised! I may just take you up on that offer if I'm still enraged by the morning, but I doubt I will be even if I have the right to be. Thank you for your kind words!

    I'm flattered you called me nice. I have been working on being nice and glad it is being noticed. Don't hesitate to pop up in my page and say hi. Without school in sesh, I get lonely and bored so always awesome to just talk in general.
    Well... today sucked. I was in a bad mood for various reasons and my only friend/roommate does not even have the decency and/or ability to notice. I did things today that I have never done in the months that I have known her. Not even a simple, "Hey, are you okay?" or even a goodnight as we usually do. I was ignored.

    I am pissed off honestly. Unfortunately, I am unable to hold a grudge for even 24 hours...

    Hey! I know we just met. But if you ever needa vent I'm normally on for long hours. I can try my best to help or just listen if you need. <3

    Thanks :) I don't think this is really a thing that can be fixed, as my roommate and literal only friend, I am going to get over this if I want to or not. It is sucks that I had way better friends in high school than now, when normally it is the opposite. Plus, I KNOW I have asked her if she was okay before, so it's not like I never acted like I cared. I have cried in the same room and she never said a thing/laughed

    Not trying to excuse your friend's behavior, but I'm wondering if she simply doesn't know how to express her concern for you, so she just backs off? Like, maybe she can tell something is wrong, but doesn't want to upset you further by asking about it....? Idk.

    Either way, I'm sorry to hear that you got ignored. :(
    As truthofself truthofself says, we're here for you if you need to scream.
    Is there a way to filter threads so that they always show newly created threads first? Not new posts, but entire threads that were created today or yesterday.

    I have played around with it for the 1x1 search and the roleplay discussion areas but so far I have had no luck...
    Second day of school and I'm already mentally done. Plus, I think I already have a cough :( Can I have another month long break please?
    I always try to be polite when I tell someone I no longer want to RP with them. I take the blame. It's a shame they cannot be polite in turn
    I used to have such a good constitution, I would rarely get sick and I would never puke. But for the second time, I'm throwing up :(

    I like anime, but I'm always angry when watching it and I just figured out why. My favorite character is never the underdog/main character.

    It doesn't look too bad, I'll put it on my (long) list of anime I need to watch!
    Idea

    That and One Punch man may just be the perfect anime for you, as the MCs in those are both quite overpowered (so the opposite of an underdog) and as MCs they win. Hopefully this should solve your problems for a couple anime :)

    Honestly, that sounds perfect.
    I'm so cool, I play Betrayal at House on the Hill by myself... It's a multiplayer mystery/ deception game. It could make a fun RP though...
    I'm reaching the dangerous point where I want to rp/dont want to abandon them, but I REALLY do not want to write. It's feeling like a chore

    If it's really feeling like a chore you should just leave them. For your own sanity, trust me. I've been in that spot before.

    Typically I would (and have done before) but I like most of the RPs I'm in right now and know that once I get past this funk, I'll want to continue them. I'll probably be forced to in a few weeks due to school restarting anyway...
    Piper Sue Who
    Piper Sue Who
    Well I hope you really do get past this funk, especially if you have some RPs you really do enjoy. ; u ; Hopefully when you are able to get back into roleplaying it won't feel like a chore again, cause that would just suck. Goodluck in school by the way! I start soon too.
    I just want the Winchesters to openly call Crowley a friend and Crowley to be respected by his loyal demon followers... Please Supernatural!

    I can always use help fighting the zombies in the Hollywood graveyard... I hate that mission with a passion.

    But it's a brilliant reference to Mr. Romero, hehe. However, it does break sometimes.
    Viper
    Viper
    Not even the breaking, I just can't ever seem to beat it without multiple tries which is extremely annoying since it takes 5 minutes each time. It's the least fun mission in my mind, even the sewers or the Nosferatu camera quest was as bad.
    On the plus side, I have a lot of RPs now. On the down side, they are all harem RPs and I have 12 character to make and not enough time
    Either I do not like RPing Fandoms or I have yet to find my preferences. Do I want to play canon characters or just use the universe...?
