rpc… it’s time we talked about this… honesty hours / days in group rps
i want to start this off by saying this is NOT just up to the admins to take care of, and i actually hate the idea that admins will SPECIFY that in order to receive anons you should send some out and its still ignored.
tldr for what im about to say: yall fucking SUCK at honesty hours/ honesty days
the last four BIG group rps i’ve been in have had honesty hours / honesty days. this is SO much fun and so amazing, and it can create such a laugh, or character development, or even just a lightness to the rp!! i highly encourage and adore honesty hours / honesty days!!
in all four of these rps, the majority of anons i’ve see on the dash have been… from myself. i’m not tooting my own horn or anything, but no joke- i hate anybody feeling excluded and will go onto so many different accounts, and spam out to AS MANY PEOPLE AS I CAN questions, because i think everybody else will do the same. maybe i have high standards. but how fucking disheartening and just SAD is it to see, that everyone seems to be putting up links, begging for questions, and the only anons / qs i see are ones I’VE SENT OUT because nobody else is sending anybody questions.
to put it plainly, y’all are fucking selfish when it comes to honesty hours and honesty days. you will put up your own links, and then just la de da, skip off into the sunset and expect your box to be filled, but not send anything to anyone, or send two qs out to your friends or a muse you find hot.
this is AWFUL. it makes me SO FUCKING MAD.
now i totally get that real lives can get in the way, or being mobile can be really hard to see whos posting what, and when… but if YOU ARE PUTTING UP A LINK, ASKING FOR ANONS, THE LEAST YOU CAN DO IS SEND AT LEAST YOUR HOURLY LIMIT OF TEN ASKS OUT IN RETURN. thats all!! i’m not saying you need to spam out accounts like i do, or wait until the hour refreshes and then go again. i’m just saying, we all in the rpc need to get better at this. we need to send out things instead of just asking for things all the time. it is NOT the admins job to remind us to give out questions in order to receive some. we are not in kindegarten and learning how to share. do NOT put up a link to ur inbox if u are not willing / able to send anything in return!!
I KNOW YOU MAY ASK- but g, its so hard to think of qs! or- this person only just joined the rp! i don’t know anything about them, so what on earth would i send them? YOU ARE RIGHT TO ASK THESE QUESTIONS!!! coming up with questions can be so hard. not every one of them needs to be super serious and character hitting. you can send something dumb like ‘what are your five fave songs at the moment?’, or if you REALLY can’t think of anything, i highly recommend just looking over HERE. there are so many questions. you can literally just copy and paste any q from that tag, and send them to people. IT’S THAT EASY!!!
if you want qs, send some out. i’m sick of being the only one actually sending qs out in group rps, and i’m sure many others feel the same way about group rps THEY’RE in. i’m sick of spamming and spamming, and coming back to my inbox to one question in return. y’all will happily and greedily take anything you can, but you won’t ever return the favour, and this needs to change. the rpc has a lot of problems and issues, but i’m hoping this is at least ONE (1) we can actually work on solving without too much discourse.
