as a writer, as a roleplayer; i just need to say something
if you value your writing partners as nothing more than a thing to get writing out of, you need to check yourself, like seriously badly. Your RP partners are people too. They have feelings, they have lives, they have things that could potentially hinder how much they write.
If you get butt-hurt over someone not replying, or someone dropping a thread or someone losing a muse, or anything of the such. Rethink your reasoning. Put yourself in a situation that would keep you from writing and ask yourself how you’d feel if someone ceased contact with you because you weren’t writing. It fucking sucks, right?
Being blocked by someone you might consider a friend because of personal issues keeping you from writing is the worst feeling. Can you imagine feeling like nothing more than a tool?? I’m not a tool!!! I’m a person. It’s so sad, because i have lost multiple friends for this reason. People just stopped being interested in me because i stopped being able to consistently write the muses of mine that they liked the best.
RPers aren’t tools. They’re more than just their writing. If you can’t get that into you head, then take a step back and reevaluate some things.
If you want to write with someone, make sure you respect them first.
