Happy Friday! Ever since our Anniversary post (and the introduction of the Rings system and the Members' Shop) I've been hard at work buildi

We're happy to launch two new features for the #SonicTheHedgehog Community on the Sonic Stadium today; Gallery and Blogs! Check out our update post for more details!

🌴 Person A: posts an rp search for an erotica partner in an all-ages rp search blog

Person B: comments how it's a shame they're a minor because the prompt sounds fun and happily wishes Person A good luck

Person A: wigs out because how dare the MINOR read their ADULT post, even though they literally didn't ask them to roleplay, or break any actual rules or laws, and says they'll tell all their friends to avoid them

Me: sigh, it's time to block someone else, and it's not the minor

🌴 if you're not in a position to accept all kinds of opinions topics without bias you're not in a position to be running your rph blog. stop pretending you're a ball of shining light when maybe a third of my asks have been published and none of them say i support what is in them. you have a tracker too even though you say everything is incognito and i have a feeling you know who most of the regulars are even though they go on anon, that is wrong. don't you think people deserve to know you're watching them. they entrust you with their secrets. i have to use the onion browser just to visit now and i can't visit any more because it feels wrong.

🌴 I think the roleplay help groups really need to get off their moral high horses and stop acting like they’re pillars of light and are so much better then the rest of us, because they’re not. They need to just stop with their bullshit posturing. They need to quit filling up the tags with such meaningless, nasty ranting and psas no one but them cares about. The reason most of us need confession blogs is because of people like them. People telling us to stop talking or to stop writing our feelings out. You’re not gonna be able to stop the problems in the community if you snub the one place people have to talk about these issues without being shot down. It’s annoying. I honestly wish the rph would go away, they cause more problems than they help solve.

🌴 Can rph blogs go back to their original role and, oh idk, do rp-related resources instead of airing their dirty drama for clout? It's worse if said rph blogs take the wrong side of things and starts blaming the victims instead.

682170227784663040 - This is why I check the source code of RPH blogs before I follow them now, and why I routinely check again down the road. Not going to name any names, but I've seen too many blogs that pretend to be safe, anonymous, and accepting spaces, then go against it and have a freehostedscripts, statcounter, or both secretly hidden in their code, and abuse the hell out of it. I’ve seen blogs use these counters to identify people who publicly reblog/comment and send anon asks at the same time, then use that knowledge to delete all subsequent asks that come from them if they don't subjectively agree with their public comments (even though their blog claims to be unbiased). People who visit RPH blogs just to "like" their posts can also be identified, simply because the blog owners can see the timing of a certain user liking their posts and when someone was viewing those posts on the blog url. Now they have their IP. I've even seen a blog misinterpret those views and assume an IP address belonged to a certain person, even though it didn't, it was just coincidence, and barred them from participating any more, not even because the person had done anything wrong but because the mods didn't agree with their opinions. So vet your RPH blogs, everyone. It will save you a lot of potential trouble. Try this: pick three RPH blogs you visit, go to the url of each one, right-click the page and choose "view source", then press ctrl+f and search for "statcounter", then for "freehostedscripts". If nothing comes up, you're golden, but something might. It pays to avoid blogs that have those codes, especially if you're talking about sensitive topics, privately or publicly, or even liking the posts. You have no idea how that information could be used against you, or what circumstantial situations could be used to pin stuff on you. It's not worth it. Find the good blogs and stick to them.
