Fandom Roleplay - Tumblr Posts
I know you promoted Emerald Chat, but Rolechat.org is also a really good alternative which is active and specifically for roleplay - it's a bit better than emeraldchat because there are less weirdos.
I do have an upcoming post about them both. Part of the reason I promoted EmeraldChat is that site offers a bit more transparency and filtration of the people you're chatting with. Although Rolechat does also offer some pretty decent safety features, including blocking, which would've been a godsend on Omegle.
(Still praying one of the old moderators manages to take legacy of Omegle and reinstate the site. Hopefully with better functions and less bots.)
There are also weirdos on any chat site. That's unavoidable. I don't judge websites based on weirdos. I judge them based on what functions they give me to get rid of the weirdos.
That said, I haven't actually come across any on either site in ship tags, yet. I've probably jinxed myself with that, but hey ho. Its also important to remember that it was violently easy to code bots for Omegle, so a lot of the weirdos you ran into weren't actually people.
Have you tried litphoria? It looks amazing
I have not, I did try to check it out but the site was slower than me solving a calculus equation, so I gave up after watching it struggling to load for 10 minutes and put it out of its misery.
Could've absolutely been a me issue, so I'll try to check it out again another time.
so im making this ANYWAY for a friend and it got me thinking, im curious if anyone on this weird little site (/aff /pos) would want this
would anyone be interested in a kinda "guide" to improving your written RP skills? i've had.. a lot of years experience doing various text-based RP, both fandom and OC (mostly fandom, though). i would be including screenshots of my own roleplay messages (some of them with things highlighted for emphasis) for reference on what the hell i'm talking about with some points
over that time i've picked up a LOT of little things that i've found improved my writing skills and style, my ability to be "in character", and adding a little length to messages to make them more interesting, a little more than just a sentence or two describing the bare bones
honestly i'm probably gonna post one anyway, i'm mostly just curious what kind of interest to expect lmao
(also, if anyone sees this, and wants to suggest things to add in OR things to give tips on, feel free to let me know! i definitely have enough stuff to make the post on its own, but as we know, i like long rambly posts, so the more the merrier or... something! /gen)
