no shade to the kg2 rpc but like, if i may, a list of things i never see from rpers ( at least in just this community ) anymore that i wish would make a comeback bc i miss seeing these:
random posts about just. rambling about hcs for ur muses just bc ur that excited about it and want to talk about them
ask memes that Don’t have to be prompts related to starters for an rp,,,,, like, i haven’t rbed a lot of them myself bc i was rlly shy and also didn’t have the energy to keep up doing those posts like-- expression memes, “ send an emoji for me to badly draw your muse on ms paint ” memes, thinking of hcs specifically between one person’s muse and your own, or even ask memes directed at the muns themselves to say what they think about other blogs or smth like that
literally just. evidence we’re hanging out on this site and having fun with managing rp blogs bc no offence but holy Fuck i’ve realized p much everyone in this rpc just feels so,,,,,, detached? from their actual blogs that it feels rlly scary and like,, as if we don’t even want to be here
like. i feel like it’s my fault bc i distanced myself from my rp blogs for a vv long time thanks to stress and health issues and school. and then i treated it like a job and got stuck on the insane amount of replies that my brain decided i have to finish in a specific order.
and it’s been going on so long that i forgot what made rp blogs fun for me in the first place. and it’s been so long since i did any of these “ fun ” type of rp customs myself, plus the fact a lot of the people in the kg rpc are new to tumblr rp in general and then for some reason looked up to me to get started, that i feel like i wasn’t a good role model for you guys in that sense.
and i know it’s not my responsibility but i feel i never rlly was an example of the Full Rp Experience that made people like me fall in love with tumblr rp. and i feel like it wasn’t fair to the people who wanted to join in and instead got my halfassed one-reply-a-month attempts at managing my plethora of blogs that i wasn’t even capable of handling back then and still can’t.
i think at the time, i was even kind of aware of it too,,,, i think i wanted people to spread out and follow rpers Other than me so they could see what it was Actually supposed to be like bc i knew if it was just me, i wouldn’t be good enough of an example.
i know that ofc not everyone loves rping like i do, and not everyone cares about meticulously taking care of their rp blog, or are as attached to the characters, or towards writing, or cares about making friends or memories or content that they wanna look back on over and over again in the future-- but it’s like. it’s for the person out there who’d maybe grow to feel the same way i do about this. the someone whose entire life would be different if they never got the chance to be introduced to and try this one thing. the same person i used to be, cause if i could help someone find a purpose and happiness and fun through rping just like i did, i think it’d be nice to be able to partake in even a small part of spreading something i adore to someone else who will end up valuing it as much as i do
