rp trends we should start in 2016

  • people stop judging their own worth based off of their follow count and comparing them to other blogs of the same muse
  • people accept and appreciate their duplicates ; they need not write with  them but people learn to respect them, stop stealing from them, being  jealous of them and being paranoid about losing partners to them
  • people stop romanticising/fetishising genuine issues/people and write ‘dark’ topics appropriately ( if they’re going to do that )
  • people stop sending anon hate, being passive aggressive, manipulative and unkind/cruel ESPECIALLY behind the anon shades
  • people accept the plethora of differing opinions, ideas and preferences  from people in their community and learn to appreciate and understand them rather than demonising a person for them
  • people stop putting ‘popular’ rp’ers  on a pedestal and accept all of us are just losers who love our characters behind a screen
  • people stop becoming friends with people for what they can give them ( graphics, followers, attention, art ect. )
  • people stop using anon so liberally ; if you aren’t willing to deal with the  backlash of having your face on an ask because you think it can/will  cause offence/drama/anger DON’T SEND IT ?   If you aren’t willing to stand up and behind your words then you don’t believe them enough & you shouldn’t use anon bye 
  • ship wars stop. People can ship different things without being abused wtf
  • we all get along, appreciate we’re here for the same reason and learn to love and look after eachother rather than creating pointless divisions
  • end the 2015 trend of calling people who are popular or practise exclusivity ‘pretentious’ ‘toxic’ ‘ELITIST’ ‘unapproachable’ ‘mean’ ect. 
  • honestly pretentious and elitist and toxic have to be the most overused  rp words of 2015 I don’t think I heard a single person offline I know say them all year on tumblr I’m lucky to go an hour 
  • I hope like ‘endless chill’ no matter what becomes a trend
  • lets all just look after and love each other in 2016

“It’s nice, to not be judged,” she said, taking another sip of her tea. “I’ve never really known anything but judgment. My father expected certain things of me, especially after–well, you know. The  s c a n d a l .  I swear, he was more concerned about how we would look to the pureblood community than he was about the fact that my mother and brother were murdered in cold blood.”
Just speaking about it filled her with anger. She had cut ties with her father, finally, but the wounds were still far too deep. “I just wish there were a way to get rid of this,” she said, fingers lightly grazing over the Dark Mark on her left arm.

Dropping his hands to the table, he pushed his mug away and reached for Celia’s hands. It felt oddly right to try and reach out. After all, she fought on the same side and had clearly suffered as much as his family.

if not more.

     “Now listen here,” he spoke softly. “All you can do is go forward. You did your part and now you’re alive and well. Never look back.

NEVER.

He was a man of few words, but what he did say tended to cut deep.

     “So we all know about the Hungarian Horntail, the Chinese Fireball, the Norwegian Ridgeback… but did you know about the Antipodean Opaleye? Or the Transylvanian Tăciune? Highly endangered! It has this rather unsightly boil on the back of its neck… fascinatin’, eh?!”

PSA PSA !!!

there is an rper on tumblr whose account is torridxdesires though they have also gone by the name eightholyterrors. they are rping rape, pedophilia, and racism. i never have really paused and taken the time to really READ their threads before but now that i have i’m .. disgusted honestly. if everyone could do me a favor, flag the blog. flag the threads. or at least reblog this so other people are aware of what’s happening in our community thanks.
here are the two threads that i noticed in particular be sure to report both people who are in it if you do please ~
(x) (x) (x) (x)

well, people is free to write whatever they want the owner of that blog is tagging everything accordingly and it says in their RULES that they write that kind of stuff it says they are old enough to do it and if YOU are NOT ok with it, then avoid the damn blog so…???? also it’s fiction; they’ve said it’s bc they enjoy to write that kind of stuff doesn’t mean they would do that irl or something omg people

SEE WHY IS IMPORTANT TO READ THE FUCKING RULES?? geez rp police wannabes everywhere man

child pornography (even written) is illegal dude

L O L

These are not official sources by any means, but let’s just focus on something, here:

          THE FIRST AMENDMENT IS INCLUSIVE OF, GEE, FREE SPEECH??? If you’re not in the United States, remember that Tumblr is headquartered in New York, NY, U S A.

Headquarters35 E 21st Street, Ground Floor New York City, 10010

As long as you aren’t committing these acts yourself, or bullying someone else into doing them, and ACKNOWLEDGE THAT WHAT YOU’RE WRITING IS A WORK OF FICTION, WHICH THE AUTHOR HAS DONE, IT IS FINE — CONTROVERSIAL, PROBABLY, BUT FINE.

Here, lemme take a snippet from Tumblr’s own Community Guidelines:

What Tumblr is for:

Tumblr celebrates creativity.    We want you to express yourself freely and use Tumblr to reflect who you are, and what you love, think, and stand for.

What Tumblr is not for:

Malicious Speech.        Don't encourage violence or hatred on the basis of things like race, ethnic origin, religion, disability, gender, age, veteran status, or sexual orientation.        We encourage you to dismantle negative speech through argument rather than censorship.        We will, however, remove anything that is overtly malicious.Report malicious speech
Harm to Minors.        Be thoughtful when posting anything involving a minor.        Don't post or solicit anything relating to minors that is sexually suggestive or violent.        Don't bully minors, even if you are one.        Being a teenager is complicated enough without the anxiety, sadness, and isolation caused by bullying.Report harm to minors
Promotion or Glorification of Self-Harm.        Don't post content that actively promotes or glorifies self-harm.        This includes content that urges or encourages others to: cut or injure themselves; embrace anorexia, bulimia, or other eating disorders; or commit suicide rather than, e.g., seeking counseling or treatment, or joining together in supportive conversation with those suffering or recovering from depression or other conditions.        Dialogue about these behaviors is incredibly important and online communities can be extraordinarily helpful to people struggling with these difficult conditions.        We aim for Tumblr to be a place that facilitates awareness, support and recovery, and we will remove only those posts or blogs that cross the line into active promotion or glorification of self-harm.Report self-harm
Gore, Mutilation, Bestiality, or Necrophilia.        Don't post gore just to be shocking.        Don't showcase the mutilation or torture of human beings, animals, or their remains. Dick.Report gore, mutilation, bestiality, or necrophilia

I don’t see anything in there about writing fiction regarding such things? Or about roleplaying characters who are into such things? Hmm, makes you think.

What I DO see in the guidelines, however, is this:

Harassment.        Don't attempt to circumvent the Ignore feature or otherwise try to communicate with someone who has asked you to stop.Report harassment

And hasn’t torridxdesires expressed, on numerous occasions in just the last hour, how overwhelmed they are by their anons and the hate they’re getting? I think that counts as harassment, don’t you? 8) If you don’t believe me? [PAY SPECIAL ATTENTION TO THAT LAST SCREENSHOT]

Moral of the story? Don’t bully, don’t try to push your beliefs on others who aren’t doing so to you [or just don’t do it in general because that’s childish and pathetic], and for the love of god, stop the persecution.

If anyone should have a problem with this, it’s me. I work in the Mental Health field so I see some messed up shit, and believe me darlings, this is nothing but creative work from a fictitious source. Stop making it more than it is. Your dickishness is showing.

Slender fingers DANCED IDLY over a steaming porcelain mug. The warmth that lifted from the liquid like a sweet gesture of comfort kissed at his palm but brought no desire to drink such tasteless coffee as the wizard gazed absentmindedly out the window and onto the horizon beyond this eyesight.

Companionable silence wasn’t something Charlie was unfamiliar with. He often welcomed it when there was too much noise in the world around him.

But something about this particular silence was unsettling. His big brother was never usually so melancholy.

     “Talk to me, Bill.”

“I knew things would be different after the war,” Celia mused. “I expected persecution. Ridicule. I was  p r e p a r e d  for those things. I was prepared for everyone to think I only did it to save my own skin; to think the worst of me, because that’s just what people do with Slytherins, isn’t it? I was completely ready to be faced with judgment and scorn–I was not, howeverprepared to be invited to dinner by your mother.” She turned to Charlie Weasley, the only Weasley currently in the room with her while the others were either preparing for dinner or upstairs.

“She welcomed me in, with open arms, no questions asked. I’ve–well, that’s not something I’m accustomed to.”

Tapping a finger against his mug,

pumpkin-spiced cider, his favourite,

Charlie listened to her worries and found himself unconsciously nodding along.

     “I can understand that; respect your decisions, too, because no one knows better the hardships of the war than my own family. There’s NO place for anyone to judge an ally.”
