[Hey there! Ghidorah-mun here.
I know I said I was on hiatus earlier, but I've noticed something that's become a rather recurrent issue in this RP community.
There is a mindset of "us or them" that seems to be going around, where specific blogs(no pointing fingers here, folks) seem to believe that there is an overall "canon" for this community.
This is a roleplay community.Â
Some people roleplay with everyone, and others prefer to roleplay with close friends, or a small circle of people. This does not make those who rp with everyone good and those who RP with only a few bad.
Roleplay is here to make us happy--roleplay is here as stress relief, and if a roleplayer shows no want to interact with your muse, don't take it personally!!
Sometimes, we as the muns just don't feel comfortable rping with specific muses, and it's nothing against you!! It's just our comfort zone!
Do not demonize people for sticking to their comforts!
As well, the idea that there is a CANON and NON-CANON list of blogs within a community is ridiculous.(this is in reference not to the canonical characters from the fandom the community is centered around, but rather, that there is a universe within the rp community where certain characters are accepted, and others are not.)
that sort of thinking is TOXIC, and only helps to create bitter tensions and spawn schisms between roleplayers within the community.
EVERY ROLEPLAY BLOG IS IT'S OWN UNIVERSE.
EVERY INDIVIDUAL ROLEPLAY IN AND OF ITSELF IS A CROSSOVER OF SORTS.
Even if two people roleplay together, their muses could hold personally to two separate timelines. Nothing is canon.Â
Specific muns may talk behind the scenes and decide to make their characters canonical to each other-that's OKAY. They're ALLOWED to do that if that's what they find would be fun!
What's not okay? Attempting to emotionally manipulate and run train on a pity party of yourself in an attempt to be accepted into this "prestigious group"Â some people seem to idolize.
We roleplay with those who we'd like to roleplay with, because we want to enjoy our time here as stress relief!Â
WE ARE NOT OBLIGATED TO THREAD OR INTERACT WITH YOU TO MAKE YOU FEEL GOOD IF IT WOULD, INHERENTLY, STRESS OURSELVES OUT.
THIS IS HERE FOR FUN, NOT FOR PROFIT. THIS IS NOT OUR JOB.
Please, if you hold onto some mindset that you "aren't good enough" rethink that train of thought. Because that is toxic and you will only harm yourself.
It has nothing to do with you. You did nothing wrong. Rejoice and create a world of your own with the roleplay partners you DO have instead of trying to appeal and cash in on those that you view as some sort of roleplay idol, because that will only make awkward tension.
We are not here to be some end-goal for you, we are here to have fun.
You are here to have fun.
Do not force your muse upon other people, respect their wishes, and instead roleplay with those that HAVE shown interest with you.
NO HARD FEELINGS, but the idealogy that there is a TUMBLR ELITE that you need to infiltrate and join is ridiculous, because there is not.
Thank you for your time.]
