#i'd say i'm also much more easygoing about personals and minors following my RP blogs than a lot of others out there

What current rp trend do you hate?

'hate' is really wayyyy too strong of a word but i'm very lightly annoyed by what seems to be the current method of dash commentary, which is just making separate consecutive posts on your respective blogs Responding to the other RPer's posts instead of. reblogging. and making an actual back and forth thread out of it

idk how long this has been going on. i can't remember when i first noticed it lmao. it's nothing Huge, it just makes me feel frustratingly Out Of The Loop on everything if i don't follow all the blogs currently interacting with the commentary

so it ends up being just this one-sided stream of nonsense almost entirely divorced from its context orz unless i want to try to figure out the other blogs involved and search through their posts in the hopes of painstakingly piecing together The Full Story rip

How do you feel about vague posting?

mm, it's kinda up in the air a bit. for the most part i don't really think much of it when i see other people do it-- i might have a moment of Intense Curiosity and some brief worry that it's me they're complaining about lmao but. it usually passes pretty quick. and tbf i don't feel that i see a lot of it on the dash anymore

it also probably kinda helps that i'm not. or at least i don't think i'm that heavy of a presence on the dash either, not these days, so it's easy for me to assume whatever post i see isn't about me

on the flipside i kinda hate that it's even A Concept at all bc i'm constantly trying to figure out if my posts veer into it!! bc most people don't like vague posting, which is understandable. and i don't want to irritate anyone XD;; or make them Nervous. it's easy enough for me to kinda shimmy past that sorta insecurity when i spot vague posts, but there's probably plenty others who aren't so lucky and will get Stuck and overthink. there's a lot of posts i write up and then. delete bc i'm scared it falls into vague posting or that it might be taken that way orz

case in point: me squinting at my answer for the first question here wondering if it's too harsh or specific

What’s one thing that other people seem to hate that doesn’t bother you?

oh i feel like there's a lot but off the top of my head it's reblogging posts that aren't RP memes from me instead of the source. it very honestly makes me feel kinda sad when someone reblogs an aesthetic post or a musing or Anything Else from The Source instead of me orz and i know that's silly and probably makes no sense

idk if it's that i'm some kinda old school or something but it's always been a sorta happy Ping for me when followers find posts they like on my blog and reblog them. i start to feel a little Invisible?? perhaps? when it's just a trickle of likes on reblogged posts (if that) followed by spying the same post on the dash but reblogged from the source

and realistically of course i know it Shouldn't-- like in the former's case it's obvious my blog is where they saw the post so i'm clearly not invisible. but it still just ends up feeling a bit lonely for me, haha ;;

i've also never personally had trouble finding my replies in my activity page, even when i had a popular* blog, but that doesn't necessarily mean no one else does or has
