Reblog Karma (which will be called RK) isn’t a thing that works. It singles out people who don’t feel like sending memes and what not and like it or not, that is an individual choice on behalf of each roleplayer. So, instead of RK which does nothing but cause resentment and confusion, I am suggesting the simple alternative of Pay It Forward.
There is no time limit on paying it forward, nor is there any obligation besides the fact that it’s a nice thing do to. If a meme doesn’t work for your character in regards to another, you aren’t obligated to send them it. Not now, not ever. Some memes do not work for certain situations, for certain blogs, for certain writers. Memes are not universal, and not everyone is interested all the time. But part of pay it forward is this: so you reblog a meme and don’t send an ask for it to the person you reblogged it from. Okay, you had your reasons and you don’t need to defend them. But next time they reblog one that you can respond to comfortably, IC or OOC, do it. Because maybe someone will do the same for you. And if we all took some time to pay it forward and send a mun a meme or say hello or initiate a conversation, then no one would be left feeling ignored or used simply for their memes to be reblogged.
Roleplay is an interactive game, and it’s very hard to play when people won’t interact with you. It doesn’t matter how many followers you have - it’s the ones who talk to you, send you things, and to whom you can do the same that make the experience fun. So maybe you don’t send a meme everytime. Maybe you don’t vote in someones poll or help them with something they’ve asked about on the dash. But maybe once in a while, you could. We all could. Help make the experience positive for everyone. A little goes a long way. A hello, a kind anon, liking someones graphic, replying to an open, or even just sending a meme instead of only reblogging them. PAY IT FORWARD.
