how do you keep from getting disheartened when no one expresses interest in your rp?
itās unfortunate that this is happening a lot more recently, like it breaks my heart. but here are just a few ways, in my opinion, that can help you stay upbeat and excited about your rp.
post several times daily!Ā donāt just have one post per day, it gives the impression that the admin isnāt dedicated and could lead into a potential flop. show that youāre dedicated and passionate about your roleplay and what you like! donāt give up!
new theme, new graphics!Ā i always find it refreshing when i give my blogs a new look, whether it be a new theme and or new graphics, and iām sure a change of look and style will bring in a lot more traffic! if photoshop isnāt your thing, you can always send in a request to rphs that do theme makeovers! iām sure theyād love to help you out!
ask for opinions!Ā thereās nothing wrong with asking an rph about whatās working and not working for your rp. if criticism is involved, donāt take it as harsh, take it as them wanting to help you and wanting to see your rp succeed! but do remember that it is just their opinion, and whether you want to take their opinions is entirely up to you. just make sure that you ask each rph nicely!!!
take a look at your plot!Ā is there any way that you could expand on your plot, or shorten it so itās less confusing if you have a lot of information, or can you take a different twist with it? try and play around with different aspects! add a supernatural twist! or a disney twist! or instead of having a small town rp, try out a small haunted town rp! the possibilities are endless!
create an inspiration blog for your rp! Ā i always find that a super easy way to not lose muse not only for your character, but your rp as well. like, if you have an rp set in a circus setting, then definitely make sure to make a sideblog where you can reblog a lot of circus-y things! that way you get more absorbed into the rp world youāve created!
overall, these are just my thoughts that you may take into account. iām sorry if you feel disheartened, but do take in mind that many people are off at school or have jobs, thus making it a bit harder to balance between rp and ooc. but i do hope this helped !!
