The OOC RP Discussion Meme


[How To]

1. Discuss anything to do with RP-ing - Plots you want to try out, characters, characterization, head canon/fan theories, game ideas, meme ideas, fic and fanart ideas, AU and crossover ideas, Verse/PSL ideas, etc, etc. Game and comm promotions are fine, too.

2. Comments can be anon or non-anon, it's up to you.

3. Please do not bash, flame or name drop any mun or game in a negative fashion. No wanking, please!

4. Have fun!

Yes, we can. Hate memes have devolved from a place to "vent/warn about bad players/etc." into a place for cliques and those with too much time on their hands to just rant and wail on people and then condemn those who don't agree with everything they say. Entirely needless; if you want to be a douche, go do it in private with the rest of your cheerleader-squad friends and be publicly civil like the rest of us.

That isn't true of all the anons that go there. I have to wonder if you even go there, because it sounds like you're picking and choosing things just for the sake of strengthening your argument. Seriously...where are the cliques? We're all anon. It's kinda hard to form cliques under those circumstances.

Anyone who tries to condemn someone else for not agreeing with them will often find themselves shut down, argued with, or laughed at, or even none of the above depending on the circumstances. It might not even be any of the above--some people are actually very reasonable, and will freely admit that they might have been/were wrong after gaining some perspective on some matter. Of course, you're right in some respects, because that's the thing about anon communities--you're going to find all types--but trying to blanket an entire group with one narrow set of traits isn't particularly smart, nor accurate.

But, it's still Wankgate at the end of the day.
