if you dont have a tag on ur blog but you want to start sorting posts dont feel bad about the posts left behind. gone but not forgotten. you'll be grateful for the separation between pre-tag system and post-tag system in 3 years anyways.

rpc trends i have lived through: a compendium

this is by no means hate to trends ( "trends" in this case being something a large majority of people have participated in at some point, whether they're good or bad - not for me to judge ) bc i am a slave to the aesthetic as much as the next person. i've just been in the trenches, is all.

no promos, no formatting, no icons, no tagging system. we live in the wild west and if you can find someone to write with? godspeed.

small text and that's it for formatting. maybe a little italics for flavour. the beginnings of "omg you're so elitist for this" surfaces.

themes by manatopia ( if you were in the anime rpc ) or octomoosey ( if you favoured the rl fcs ).

simple one-word straightforward tagging system with no fancy text or symbols. ( ie. appearance, musings, closet, etc )

more complex tagging system, with symbols and quotes/lyrics using a generated font the tumblr tagging system can't actually read

one-panel simple promos with full resumes in the description ( ie. 10+ years experience, literate, etc )

2-panel simple promos

3 and 4-panel promos of varying complexity

the signerica font

text promos with icons

big, unedited gifs of varying sizes and colorings used interchangably

smaller gifs, but same as above

no icons

simple icons with simple one-line borders and whatever the fuck that checker texture was that everyone and their grandmother used

triggers? and you tag them???? wild. never heard of. we stumble blindly through content like god intended.

follower milestone/giveaways - essentially your speech at the oscars and here's a little incentive to keep following me. usually for large milestones like 100, 500, 1k, and 3k followers. if you had more than that, you had killed god.

photoshopped replies - as in, we wrote up replies into a graphic

fancy image dividers, usually something small and ornate and centered, the precursor to the dividers we use today.

container themes, with the containers getting progressively smaller. if you didn't use agirlingrey's themes, were you even an rper? quickly followed by container themes with pop-ups. look out. don't forget the floating orbs. or the little banners on the side that told you who the blog was for and the writer's name.

which reminds me, if you weren't using the spark/fire overlay on promos/graphics/etc, you were excommunicated from the rpc and sent to the dungeons.

magic anons. usually of the sexual variety. no, my muse will not be horny for 24 hours straight and they sure won't have an orgasm every time someone says their name, thank you very much. sometimes it was fun though. your muse as a neko? like, nya.

y'all i haven't even gotten past 2015 yet.... the rest is under the cut. feel free to add your own. im sure im forgetting so much.

burn blogs. enough said.

positivity blogs to counteract the burn blogs, but ultimately became a breeding ground for jealousy because the same three people were endlessly complimented. it's the thought that counts though!

memes/sentence starters, but they were made on your own rp blog and if it garnered 20k notes, there was nothing you could do to stop it. rip your activity feed. we learned. boy, did we learn.

prompt/aesthetic sideblogs.

missing e, the predecessor to xkit.

xkit. then new xkit. then xkit rewritten. missing e let us down, but we won't let this fucker die.

url trends im lumping together: latin urls, "of___", urlisms, random 'x's tacked on before and/or after the url or in place of a vowel. 'c's tacked in place of e's and o's. numbers in place of letters. changing your url just for holidays/seasons.

graphics that were either desaturated or so vibrant they were crispy

themes by eternalworks

themes by hyruleshop, isaworks, or other major creators.

the rise of callouts, for better or worse

the rise of purity culture, for better or worse

receipt/callout blogs

purple prose

extra af formatting ( no hate ), coloured text, spacing, etc.

elaborate graphics.

mains. affiliates. people you should be following. the successor of 'follow friday' and milestone 'thank you' announcements.

dni lists, for better or worse.

multimuse blogs

rp sideblogs

the current trend of ripping a canon from their og universe and re-writing them as an oc bc shut up that's why

probably a whole heck of a lot more i cannot remember. i've blocked out the trauma.

[helloiamduck]

The fifh master list has got to be my favorite way of looking at current blogs.

Okay, I have been meaning to say this for a while, because I think this is a noticeable problem in our community:

Every ask matters And yet there are NONE

Do you feel bored in this RP fandom?

Tired of browsing a rarely updating tag?

Notice how half the community is joining ask games?

Ever wonder why many OS RP blogs go almost completely inactive?

Notice how there's half a dozen boring and slow as hell arcs going on recently?

This is because many blogs get NO asks at all. Popular or not.

Even OS Game RP giants like @diginiko-asks and @nyat-a-cat (currently shadowbanned so ask @the-kerfus-machine ) can experience a complete lack of asks sent sometimes!

And we need YOU to send some to the blogs you follow!

No matter what you send, no matter if they get answered or not, having asks to answer is good for everyone!

If you find yourself constantly waiting for asks all day, without actually sending asks out yourself, you are a part of the problem!

This community thrives on interaction, not waiting!

Want to help this community? Want to improve people's days? Try sending three or more asks to random blogs a day!

Feel anxious to send asks? Nobody in this RP will do anything to you, and the characters do not reflect any of the blog runners intentions. Also, the anon option is there for a reason! Always remember that you have good intentions!

Feel like you will worsen someone's day by sending an ask? As long as you follow the rules set by the blog runner, you won't! At worst, it's a forgivable annoyance.

And if you are running an RP blog, remember: you are not obligated to reply to any asks sent, do not let this hobby cause you burnout.

"Oh, but I don't know who to ask!"

Just browse the "#OS game RP" tag, it's more effective than you might think at finding new blogs!

Check the blogs you follow, there's likely an RP blog or two you forgot about.

There's already large lists of OS game RP blogs out there, check out Mapmaker's interview list and the fifh masterpost!

"Oh, but I don't know what to ask!"

Here's some ideas:

Philosophy, hobbies, and specific preferences are simple topics to form questions in, and can tell a lot about a character!

Ask something as YOUR character! - Have a casual conversation between two different characters with someone else in a thread, share lore on the way, tell stories, and have fun!

Question some lore! - If you can ask something regarding a character's backstory, especially to fill in the potential plot holes, that can be very healthy for the writing side of running an RP blog!

A lot of blogs are actually fine with M!As, if they are simple or interesting!

Found yourself questioning or answering something interesting out of RP? Great ask!

Found something interesting in a quiz? That's a great ask idea!

Came up with something that would probably cause funny reactions? - Ask away!

Heard a silly question in general? Great! Guess who you can redirect it to!

Remember: Questions do not have to be complicated! Don't feel bad if something of yours does not get answered, because you had good intentions in the end!

But I am never going to tell you to send people random nonsense just for them to not have empty inboxes, so try to avoid:

Random memes/words - These are hard to work with and are unlikely to lead to interesting things.

Basic compliments - Most characters will probably say "thanks", unless they have a backstory for it.

Repeating jokes - No one's gonna have fun if you just send "Fifh" to Freeware entity for the 15th time without putting a unique twist on it.

Spam, NSFW, exc. - Just no.

In general, it's best to put thought in your asks.

If you have anything to state on the topic, please do so in the reblogs. I encourage you to check them.

Share this around and tell your friends to send out asks regularly!

Anyways good night, sleep deprived ramble over.

Icon commissions available!

Hello, and good evening! I have a vacation coming up next month where I need to raise about $500 before then, so, I figure- what better way to help raise money for my trip than spreading the word of my comms, as I'm getting back into iconing again!

I specialize in making simple 100x100 RP icons. I do not make PSDs or borders, I enjoy making large quantities of RP icons, on some good days of upwards 50+ for a single episode or chapter. I like making enough expressions for threads. Basically, my goal when I make my RP icons is so less on things like borders or their edits as opposed to giving RPers enough expressions so that they can respond to most situations in their RPs.

For example: for my icons of Miku Okazaki from Gal Gohan, I have made over 1220 icons. For Ann Takamaki from Persona 5 I have made 966 icons from the anime (I still need to do the Dark Sun specials) and 137 icons from the manga. For Maggie Lacivi from Ava’s Demon (on request) I made 396 icons. For Cardia Beckford from Code:realize (only iconed episodes 1-6), I made 347 icons. For Milly Ashford from Code Geass I made 377 icons. For Doona Cheon of Sadistic Beauty I have made 945 icons. Basically, when I make icons, I make a lot, and that’s what I’m offering for you if you consider my services!

10 cents per icon, so $10 for 100 for example (I might consider adjusting this number if I make a ton of icons to be slightly lower, but this is unlikely). These icons will be published publicly; if you want this to be private (available only to you) I will up-charge you 5 cents per icon (so $15 for 100)

In order to make the time worth my while, I am currently only accepting commissions where I feel I can at least earn $10, so 100 icons at minimum!

Icons from games such as Genshin Impact, Final Fantasy XIV, etc are on a case-to-case basis. These are more time consuming for me to make as I must find cutscenes on youtube, and make use of both a screenshot extension and a frame-by-frame extension, and as such these icons take much longer for me to make than television or manga/comics. And as I'm trying to get icons done quickly, please understand to take these comms means I will have to take more time than I normally would for other. I will likely accept them, but be aware I will likely request an upcharge per icon due to the extra time taken.

I am willing to icon virtually any source, including that of most “problematic” media or N/$/F/W things like an h-manga or films showing graphic scenes (I’m not stranger to iconing things most dislike just for a FC, so I understand what you want) and even full out dead dove content. I however have a personal right to icon something that does not make me feel comfortable. If you’re going to be ask me to do something extremely sketchy please understand for my own personal comfort and for the sake of reputation I might reject it entirely. We will discuss this on a case-by-case basis, I will likely accept most commissions but I have my personal right to reject business I feel will make me uncomfortable.

I will give you periodic updates on what’s going on, the quality of your icons, etc.

I care greatly for the quality of my icons and your icons as well. When in the process of iconing JJ from YOI I was dissatisfied with the quality of my torrent and halfway through redid the process with a new torrent to ensure my customer had the best quality icons I could make. Even for my personal iconing projects I care about using the best quality possible so that the icons look good. If you want an anime (my specialty) or tv show quality I will look for the absolute best quality, 1080p or better to ensure you have the best quality icons you can have once I’m done cropping and resizing to 100x100.

In addition to the 100x100 icons I keep the original sized expressions as well. So once I take a screenshot and crop and resize, you will still have the original sized icons as well. This is not an upcharge or anything; I always do this. Good for expressions for personal use, I believe.

If your source is an exceptionally long-runner (like HxH, One Piece, or Yu Yu Hakusho) I will not icon the whole thing most likely; somehow I doubt most people are willing to pay for an icon commission that might be hundreds of dollars if you asked me to icon Gon or something. Most likely I will icon a specific arc of your choosing.

I do not icon fanart. If the character is very obscure and there is little official media, then I likely can’t make much. I am only willing to icon official media (such as anime and tv shows), official art, and perhaps doujins that were already being sold for money.

I can now make icons efficiently from youtube videos, so video games and the like provided there’s an LP of decent quality can now be iconed!

I do not do extensive editing, but with manga icons, I try to do very minor cleaning such as removing kanji from the background and and removing speech from speech bubbles. Basically, whatever I can do with Paint’s erase button, but that’s it.

If your source is a youtube series or the like, something I cannot easily torrent and convenient download in order to take screenshots and icons, there is a chance I might upcharge.

Below are examples of icons made from me from various sources, 100x100 and some full size icons! For the sake of length those (the full-sized ones) will go under the cut. I hope to hear from you soon! Please send me an ask or IM (IM preferred) to discuss business, and I will use the IM feature to keep in contact with you!

I hope you’ll consider me, and consider hiring me!

"oh my god, gail?" alexa's new girlfriend had convinced her to go to the reunion more or less against her wishes. alexa knew she'd been successful, and she didn't need the validation of her old classmates for that, but she had enjoyed some of her school years once she'd come into herself. why not reminisce a little? "is that you? you've definitely… filled out well, god. you look amazing." maybe it was a little bold of alexa to say, but she'd already sipped down half her drink to defend with. who knew what the second half could bring, especially when her old flame looked that good?

open to: everyone plot: gail [bottom, they/them] is attending their high school reunion. your character is there. old friends? exes? old bully? go crazy with it! please do not like my starters

"oh, thank you darling. i hope you have a wonderful evening-" gail nodded once, flashed one large smile and slid away from the line. placing the name tag sticker right on their cardigan, the heels on their feet carried them into the reunion proper. maybe others would find a ten year reunion a little pointless in the modern age, but gail got excited about seeing old faces and where they were at nowadays.

hello!!

21+ looking for discord rpers! itching for some casual but long term ocxoc (any gender) rps. i use irl fcs and love to chat ooc (casual talking, pinterest boards, brainstorming, headcanons, etc)!! i have a variety of ocs, but these 3 are currently at the front of my brain:

character #1 is a gruff, confident, charming biker with lots of tattoos. he does what he needs to get what he wants — he's been involved in his fair share of crime and he's rough around the edges, but there's a soft spot in there somewhere! character #2 is a mad scientist, plain and simple. a doctor, he loves to play god and test limits. he's suave and refined on the surface, but what lies beneath is a monster. character #3 is a hard-working, southern sheriff with a very strong moral compass! he's headstrong, but good hearted. his stubbornness sometimes leads him astray.

if this interests you, interact and i'll reach out! thank you! 👑

give a like and anon will get backt o you

[thrpr0phetuseek]

♡ • *head kiss* You seem like you need one.

[ smiles ]

“Thank you. You have no idea how much that helps.”

—

ooc ~ I’ve had waaayy too many mental breakdowns today and it’s been healthy and refreshing and stuff but like- I have not been able to respond to any rps I have had today and istgs seeing yours just felt like a weight lifted. Like, it’s not overbearing or asking me to put much thought. Just a simple “hi, love ya, hope you’re doing okay, bye” kind of rp. One that’s calm and comforting and warm. That’s exactly what I need today; so many mental/emotional/physical battles and I’m afraid I haven’t quite won any

also to any of those said rpers seeing this, o swear I didn’t abandon you, I just could not and can not pull myself together rn. I’ve been crying for hours. I’ll be better eventually I think, I just can’t do the large rps rn. That being said, if anyone wants to start non-complicated, easy-going, lightweight ones, I’m open for that, I’ll just be on and off my phone bcz stress is manifesting physically rn.

I’m reading the Odyssey and writing annotations and feeling a little better, I hope this explains today simply and sorry Aph for using your post as an explanation, just didn’t quite know how to respond or when to explain 😅

but yeah, hope none of that was too complicated to understand; I’m good with words in rp, I suck at communicating things irl/ooc

[stillnotawayne]

That anon is the disgusting person and pussy for not turning off anon.

If you're going to talk shit don't be scared to show who you are imbecile.

It is horrible that you got that ask, I don't even understand what the rper did that was sooooooo disgusting and bad in that anon opinion, like don't like don't interact, it's literally that simple.

ooc. FUCKING EXACTLY

I haven’t gotten asks. But my friends have. And fortunately for that anon my friends are too nice to make callout posts.

I, however, am not.

I don’t care if people think I’m a bitch. I am. But I’m also protective as hell over my friends.

And Cassie mun did NOTHING. She made a silly post. An in character silly post.

I will continue to call out the people who are sending undeserved hate or acting like we rpers are puppets. I don’t care.

[xxroleplayfanaticxx]

HOWDY! I’m Cipher! Bill Cipher! But you can call me your worst/best nightmare!! I would like to do a mxm roleplay. with that being said, the ship I usually do is billford,me as Bill or Ford! Aus are encouraged! HOWDY! I’m Cipher! Bill Cipher! But you can call me your worst/best nightmare!! and I would like to do a mxm roleplay.

with that being said, the ship I usually do is billford,me as Bill or Ford! Aus are encouraged!

My favorite au right now is uncle bill. Where after Bill tried to break into the portal room Ford crushes him. Upon realizing it he resurrects him through sacrificing a piece of him

Other aus I like..

amnesiac bill, bill pines, mystery shack bill or even evil Ford x Bill? Meglomaniac ford x simple bill or blank slate au!! Or theraprism billford au or reversefalls and the list goes on!

Ooo and for all my platonic rpers out there the au where The pines meet BABY BILL?!? Maybe have to take care of him or something.

I am semi-literate to advanced literate.

Rules: no oneliners, no controlling my character, no being Op or helpless.

I love slow burn! Love angst! Love romance! You name it! Looking for 18+ rp partners just in case, down for 18+ i am a bottom!! Down for anything besides vore, scat, watersports or feet fetishes and I believe that is it! Dm me if you’re interested! HAHAHAHA!
