Site Update
Well, we didn't see that one coming!
so now the morally superior powerpuff girl icon is going to preach to us
hey, i can post inflammatory statements for attention, too
how dare you be concerned with your own writing. caring about things you put work into isn't allowed, there are rulebreakers among us
i miss mystic.
like i get putting it as a warning and then letting people pick âtrans womanâ to go with it is a bad look, but i think having it as a gender legitimizes it as a gender which, imo, is a worse look
You know shitâs fucked when even one of the annoying people has a good sense-making opinion
suck my ass and get off your high horse im unfollowing
My bad bro be sure to leave me a scathing review on trustpilot xoxo
you want to fuck me so bad
Guess weâll never know now, huh! Like ships passing in the night. Promise you wonât forget about us?
hedgehog x cherubark. 500k. slowburn. enemies to lovers. petplay. dont like dont read.
I think part of the reason why I've lost so much motivation/interest when it comes to things on Cherp is because of how turbulent it is, both in site development/coding and community/"rule"-wise. Don't get me wrong, I appreciate that the Cherp team is more active in responding to questions from their users. But, the community has proven itself in the past and quite recently to be a veritable dumpster fire, where the impulsive and usually unjust/uncalled for actions of a single higher-up has almost permanently instilled an underlying atmosphere of toxicity and fear, where people are so scared of messing up that they'd rather watch everything from a distance, too filled with fear to potentially bring the wrath of mods/developers upon them.
Rather than accept the help of the original Cherubplay developer, the site has been basically rebuilt from the ground up, with more changes planned that I think will hurt the site in the long run, i.e. the front page getting axed in favor for a strictly Directory-based site. (Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong here, these are just my interpretations of the information I've gathered over both Tumblr and Discord.) Speaking of Directory, that leads me to my next concern, the constant changing and amending of the site's tagging rules. I get wanting to have a universal system for labeling things, it always sounds nice in theory. But for something as complex and, more times than not, situational as roleplaying, a one-size-fits-all system isn't always going to work. ESPECIALLY if the rules were initially designed with personal biases against certain fandoms in mind.
Part of what made Cherubplay so popular/successful, in my humble opinion, WAS the fact that it was just a site for people to roleplay anonymously with others from pretty much any fandom you could think of. There were no strict, vice-tight, ever changing tagging rules present like there are on Cherp currently. Looking over the current rules on the offical Cherp Tumblr, I can VERY QUICKLY see how easy it would be for someone migrating from such a loosely guided site like Cherubplay to get overwhelmed by the sheer volume and specificity of Cherp's Rules, possibly leading to them deciding that Cherp just isn't worth the effort of constantly having to refer to the rules over and over and over again just to post a single prompt in the Directory...
-sigh- I dunno... Maybe things will be different after the rewrite, but for now, I think I may just abandon the hope of being able to relive the simple, stable glory days of Cherubplay, a platform that gave so many creative writers like myself the freedom to roleplay whatever they wanted, without of the constant need to look over their shoulders out of fear for what a single wrong tag on a prompt might bring them...
is this your king cherub vevo server
Oh no!!!!!!!!!!!! Iâve been calloutposted!!!!!!!!!!!! Sound the alarms!
im going to expose you you menace to society
i can't believe cherubark is fucking CANCELLED
im surprised the beta was open to everyone and wasnt a closed thing, that could have been some damage control
a hundred people isnt that much of cherubplays userbase, iâm pretty sure (i remember some old stats he put out saying there were a lot more than that), and its putting a lot of unnecessary burden (like, server housing costs) on some poor person that probably doesnât anticipate that much work.
also... planning shutting down the website for a year and a half doesnât sound like itâs without a thought, but ok

'if you're going to talk about child porn and bathroom fetishes can you at least go to the nsfwe section or something to complain or tag your shit properly so people can blacklist it' omg fooound uuuu
