Hello, a couple people and I have noticed 2 twrp RP blogs that have cropped up and they appear to be making everyone except the people running them more than a little uncomfortable. I was wondering if we could take a hot second to discuss why this is Not Ok, and why these blogs should probably not exist, considering that twrp is made up of real people and all…
Hi there!! Mod Hogan here, your resident roleplayer.
After a little discussion with our mods, we’ve come to the conclusion roleplaying is no different from writing fanfiction in our eyes.
Sure, it’s a little strange… But acceptably so, as long as they remain SFW in nature and are clear that they are roleplaying blogs. To be honest, because of the difficult divide between the boys and their characters, writing fics is a little weird too. But two of our mods do it, and they and I do our best to adhere to a personal set of decency rules.
As long as writers know their boundaries and stick to portraying the CHARACTERS TWRP are, then if you’re writing fics traditionally–or nontraditionally like through RP–it’s Gucci, fam. I just hope they’re having fun and forging friendships, since that’s what our hobby is all about!
Be as creative as you can be in this fandom and you’ll go places, but make sure not to breach privacy and decency standards. What’s good for the goose is good for the gander.
