gather around the campfire for story time meme.
✂ A fandom that you feel isn't open and accepting? i literally despise the d*ng*nr*npa fandom. i don’t follow people who are in it unless i know them personally, saying this as sb who i guess was a prominent part of the fandom for, like, 4 years in the rp comm. idk what it’s like now-a-days but the fandom was so vile back in like 2015-era that it made me actually actively hate the game. i never played v3 bc i just couldn’t stand dr anymore, which is a shame, bc i did - do, kinda - still like it in theory. :/ i hope it’s gotten better since back then, even if i never personally go back to it.
✧ Do you agree with reblog karma or is it forced interaction? This is prob one of my less popular opinions, but I hate reblog karma. I think it has little kindness towards people who have extreme anxiety disorders (read: me.) It’s gotten so bad that I don’t even reblog musings or anything from people anymore bc I’m scared they’re going to be mad about it. I understand feeling put out if ppl reblog smth without sending something to you multiple times, it sucks, but I also feel like reblog karma is passive aggressive and causes undue anxiety in the community. The idea sb is just using xyz as a meme resource if they reblog smth from x person seems ridiculous and dramatic to me. I wouldn’t call it forced interaction bc everyone just ends up reblogging it from the source if they don’t want to send something and then the og poster prob sees that anyways 😭 That being said it’s not like I’m going to go around fighting ppl on it. I just rb everything from the source even if I’m sending stuff bc rb karma anxiety. 🥴
❥ Has someone ever ruined an FC or character for you? Yes lmao. I’ve met a ton of nice and kind ppl on this site, but I’ve met equally as many nasty individuals who made me wanna personally kermit their face claim or portrayal of a character into the abyss. I still can’t look at some characters without remembering them and cringing. That said, these were mostly VERY very bad individuals and it hasn’t happened for a long time. I try to let prejudices towards fcs / characters go after a while cuz then it’s just me being petty.
✖ How has Tumblr RP changed since you started? People are less shitty tbqh. I know drama both petty and serious still happens now-a-days too, but a few years ago it honestly felt like people were ONLY on tumblr for drama and fighting. Couldn’t go a single day on my dash without seeing people at each others throats. Granted I realize I had like 4k followers on my blog at the time so I was seeing a lot more than most normal ppl, I suppose, but it was... so bad. It seems like tumblr has calmed down since then. It’s either a much nicer and more chill place or I’ve simply finally learned how to curate my space so I’m surrounded by ppl I like ehrjbgnnjegrn.
