OC STRUGGLES IN THE RPC

honestly writing an OC in this community is another set of issues.

• the soul crushing feeling when you see “no OCs” in someones rules
• constantly having to dumb down your canon
• adjusting to adapted canons
• the amount of your own canon and lore you have to sacrifice to do that
• when you mention wanting to write a canon, people that have never shown any real interest in your OC jump out of the woodwork to encourage you to do it
• when you do it, and that canon gets more attention than your OC ever did
• the alternative of that: when your first character was canon and you transition to writing an OC, people suddenly disappear
• fandom OCs that outgrow their fandoms and muns that feel they have nowhere to put them
• endlessly worrying if your character is too sue-ish, even after x-amount of years
• TRIPLE THAT IF YOU’RE PLAYING A FEMALE OC
• oh my god female OCs need their own post
• female OCs constantly being underestimated and dismissed; being held to a different set of standards than other OCs
• honestly i know people that are straight up afraid to write a female OC for these reasons. they’re discouraged before they even start because they know they will never get the same acknowledgement
• people assuming simple, stupid things about your muse (can we all agree to stop guessing whose muse is taller and just look from now on?)
• feeling like you have to jump through hoops to keep up with everyone else and keep your character fresh and interesting so people don’t lose interest
• canon blogs that shit on OCs– you realize you were OCs too right? what would the original writer of your canon think?
• no seriously, it can be so discouraging writing an OC. how many ideas are you killing by snubbing OCs? the future of creative media is in our hands!
• has someone stolen my canon?
• is my canon too similar to someone else’s?
• do they think i stole their canon?
• and what do you do when somebody does steal your canon? it can be so hard to prove and it’s so easy for it to be dismissed
• having your OC written off because of the face claim choice– that face is constantly typecast, nobody can take it seriously, they’ve been overplayed and ruined. (we love you, nina dobrev and 1D OCs, you’re doing gods work)

honestly, i’m sure i could keep going. if you ask your local OC muns, they’ll be able to tack a few of their own struggles onto this list. hell, i encourage you to!

Because I’m an OC blog, I feel like if i don’t reply fast enough people will forget my character and drop the thread.

hey guys, its miles && this new post will have old && new information since things have happened a bit. 

those that don’t know me && are just now seeing this post floating because your mutual reblogged it ( or something ) i am mentally && physically disabled which makes it hard for me to work certain jobs ( if at all ) due to them.

i moved from Australia && in with my partners because of my emotionally abusive && toxic home environment.  

I found a job !! however, i won’t start until the 11th of march so i still need help in the span of donations because i will not get paid for another three weeks once i start && i’ve only got $230 in my bank which will be nothing once i pay my phone bill && maybe two other bills.

hey guys, its miles ( again ) with a updated post ( since the other was getting swamped ) && lo && behold i still need help.

those that don’t know me && are just now seeing this post floating because your mutual reblogged it ( or something ) i am mentally && physically disabled which makes it hard for me to work certain jobs ( if at all ) due to them. 

i moved from Australia && in with my partners because of my emotionally abusive && toxic home environment.  

i am trying to find jobs with little luck as all jobs i apply to seem to be denied because i either don’t have the skills required or god knows what else. i have a physical eval with the disability determination service on the 13th of feb ( this weekend )

this new post is to explain what help i still need && basic figures: 

$70-100 USD - To try && fix the pain to my back with Massage Therapy, I suffer from major back issues ( due to the curvature of my spine ) && not having gone to a therapist or a chiropractor for it has caused significant pain that i can’t put off any longer. 

??? USD - Alternatively I can go to a doctor for pain medication to subside the pain though it doesn’t fix the problem, && I’d likely be sent to a chiropractor which would probably be expensive. 

$22.50 USD - Internet ( For March )

$17.50 USD - Electricity  ( For March )

$15.00 USD - Gas ( For March )

$50??? USD - Half of Food per week ( it changes in lieu of how much we buy )

$230 USD - Rent for March 

$??? - Extra donations for things that come up.

if anyone can help it is much appreciated but if not && you can only boost this, that is the best i can ask for.
