    Viewpoint What's the scariest part about finding roleplay partners?

    Heyyyy fellow chronically ill person. I know exactly what you mean. At this point in my life I’m physically unable to work, so I have a tonnnn of spare time to RP lol, but sometimes I use my spoons on eating meals through the day, taking a shower, taking my needed supplements and electrolytes...

    Viewpoint Do you read RPs for fun?

    Yes. I've always done this lol. It depends on what my attention span is like that day and if I'd rather be doing something else, but there've been times I get invested in other RPs and I'm sitting there rooting for these people's OCs as if I'm reading a book. lmao

    Other Roleplay Pet peeves

    "Please be [insert gender] irl!" Honey, maybe just log off and get on Tinder instead. This isn't a dating site, it's a writing site.

    Viewpoint Unpopular roleplay opinions?

    Honestly...? Yeah. I agree with this. As much as I personally don't wanna RP that kind of stuff anymore, I remember just how much fun it was back when I did it as a young and edgy teen. I dunno if I'll ever recapture how those early days of RPing felt. Even if we don't like it, and even if we...

    Viewpoint Unpopular roleplay opinions?

    I’m a woman and I’m aromantic/asexual... so that basically means I don’t want any romance or intimacy in my life, at all, ever. Does this make me an emotionless robot? Absolutely not. I’m a pretty emotional person, and I’m a huge softie tbh. Just because I don’t like romantic/sexual relations of...

    Viewpoint Unpopular roleplay opinions?

    oh I totally agree. I neglected to mention groups because I only ever do 1x1. But CSes are pretty necessary in groups, I understand that (especially from past attempts at GMing lol) 1x1s though - yeah. A short, simple paragraph just to make sure we're both going in the right direction is good...

    Viewpoint Unpopular roleplay opinions?

    Man... I agree. I like making character sheets. But I tend to write a lot of stuff on a character sheet that other people would consider useless - like maybe my OC plays piano as a hobby but has never taken lessons, he just tries to figure it out on his own. Maybe he's also obsessed with coffee...

    Viewpoint Unpopular roleplay opinions?

    Oh I totally agree with you about shorter posts and one liners! I’ve been RPing for years now and I used to love writing multiple long paragraphs every post and would get irritated when my RP partners wrote any less. But as time passes... I dunno, I’ve gotten really sick of the “novella” style...

    I totally agree with this. We’re really not trying to be mean or harsh, we’re trying to help you find the best RP partners possible! So we’re just trying to help - please don’t be intimidated. Maybe this will help... When you create a search thread, make sure to answer these questions: 1...

    Other Confused

    yeah forgot to mention this. Once a day is good! And like @middleagedgeek mentioned - having just a few things about yourself and your writing style + your preferences is a good thing to have in an interest check. You don't need to make a huge long post, so please don't let that intimidate...

    Other Confused

    I agree with @Idea - and yeah, it's not a good idea to make multiple interest checks. Most people only have one interest check that they continuously bump whenever it falls behind a few pages. So it's a good idea to make just one interest check and bump it/update it when it needs updating...

    Other Obscure fandoms you'd like to RP

    dude, sounds awesome, but unfortunately I've been having a hard time writing too much lately. So my posts may range from a couple lines to multiple paragraphs; it all depends. :')

    Viewpoint What makes you nope out of a search thread?

    It doesn’t necessarily have anything to do with homophobia. It’s the same thing as liking one genre and not caring for another genre. I like medieval fantasy but I don’t like futuristic space-travel sci-fi. It’s the same thing for pairings - tbh, I don’t often like romantic pairings in the...

    Viewpoint The Roleplay Killer

    I feel this on a personal level... but for 1x1s, not groups. And I feel it mostly for myself. :') Often I come up with a cool setting I'd really love to RP in, aaaaand then I have no idea where to go from there. Or I come up with a plot that somehow doesn't seem nearly as interesting as the...

    Experiences Best person you’ve roleplayed with?

    My cousin, actually. We'd always been good friends, and when I was a young teen, I introduced her to RPing and explained how it all worked. She, being a writer, got really excited at the idea of writing just for fun along with me. We created some characters and some plotlines and started RPing...

    Advice/Help How do I force myself out of a writer's block?

    I agree with that. It's usually a good idea to try something before knocking it (not always, but it's a good idea in general). So I do feel that people should try pushing themselves at first - and if it works, that's awesome. But some people may start feeling like I did, and in cases like those...

    Advice/Help How do I force myself out of a writer's block?

    @Idea You disagree with my experience that it’s harmful for some people to keep forcing themselves to write when they're in a creative block. And I disagree with your idea that it’s beneficial for everyone to keep forcing it. I’ve been trying to write novels since I was six years old. I’ve...
