drpcq #0025 ; what are your mun pet peeves ? anon response round-up!!!
when ur muse only really gets interactions when they respond to someone elses post, but only gets like 1 or 2 responses on their own post
I agree with communication (or lack there of) as a pet peeve. Real life has to come first, but just a heads up would be nice.
drpcq: when you're plotting a potential ship and you can tell the mun has no idea what health or boundaries are and self-insert these issues into their muses to romanticize unhealthy, toxic shit
When muns act upset that your muse doesn’t react the way they think they should to their muse. Ex: their muse is popular and hot so everyone should either be impressed by them or want to fuck them or their muse is smart so every word they say should be as revered as a famous philosopher’s.
Pet peeve: when someone REALLY self inserts, especially when they were fine before but then they really start to self insert and its like ik this post is self insert and I dont feel comfy interacting because, ok this is gonna sound cold but, im not your therapist. Like if u wanna talk ooc about whatevers going on thats great, but I dont want my muse having to deal with your ooc/irl problems. I dont even know if what im describing is self insert but both are pet peeves.
When your muse and another mun's muse are dating, and the other mun expects your character to be super sweet and friendly with all their characters, even when they're being assholes and it's against their personality.
when people beg for plots but never reach out, when they beg for plots and never even bother posting an intro, when they clearly only take up characters for ships, when your ship partner writes the character flirty and whatnot with everyone else (as in yo ship ain't special), when they LIE about a hiatus need, don't lie, i don't need a reason, you could just say low muse, when they're active in the ooc but never post.... there gonna be a pt. 2 when people complain about anything but haven't tried to solve the issue themselves (i.e. no threads but never replies to starters or posts an open), when they make an admin come to them to ask about hiatus/whatnot, when they talk in the gc about needing a hiatus but never message the main then get mad when they're unfollowed, when people are clearly only taking up a character to look poc friendly (ignoring the ethnic background)... there gonna be a pt. 3 (you got me heated today, sorry) when a player lies about being busy but you're in another rp with them and they are posting multiple times daily. when members try to act like admins and boss players around, when people assume to know your character better than you and then argue when you correct them, when people try to guilt you into a ship/plot (oh nobody wants my female muses), when players try to get you to side in their drama (leave me out of it) there might be a pt 4, there might not
drpcq: muns who seem to want admins ( sometimes even other group members? ) to build their characters for them. i think collaboratively building something is great! but i've seen this be extremely one-sided a lot more than feels right
when someone is clearly only in the rp for ships. Like their characters are great when they're not in a ship, but as soon as they get in one thats all they ever talk about. And then they post an unfollow if their partner posts their unfollow. Like one: dont make your muses only personality trait their S.O. and two: platonic relationships matter too. Like I want a ship, but you don't see me only seeking romantic connections, if anything my platonic connections are deeper than my romance ones
drpcq0025: okay but i really am tired of seeing the character that is a bitch, will literally threaten to slice your throat with a knife around most people but around their boyfriend/girlfriend? is like silly puddy. it was cool for a while, but now it's getting tiring and like people have watched too much riverdale.
