^{me @ people who drop threads:  i aM SO *clenches fist*…. not angry at all because it’s your blog and you can do what you want and rping is a hobby and you never gotta force yourself or your muses to do anything thank you. seriously guys i need you to remember that it is ALWAYS okay to a) drop threads  b) reply to a MILLION other things first  c) let things sit in your drafts for AGES if necessary. this is your hobby and you shouldn’t stress over replies. please keep in mind that you don’t owe anybody on here. also please keep in mind that i am awlays open for NEW things if you are not feeling a certain thread. take care, have FUN– it’s what this website is for. improve your creativity, have fun and, if anything, REDUCE your stress. not add to it.}

just a small psa because i’ve seen this reoccuring on my indie a few times the past week and it concerns me. okay, here we go. ROLEPLAYING IS NOT YOUR JOB. it’s a hobby, cupcakes. please, treat it like one. i mean, it’s absolutely okay to be dedicated to your blog, your characters and your roleplay partners – i mean, if you are, then you’re a superstar and you rock and you’re a true treasure hidden in the rpc. but, if you aren’t online every day because you have a life outside of the internet – then you’re just as much of a superstar. i’ve seen so many people myself included have panic attacks and anxiety merely because they owe a lot of replies and don’t want to disappoint anyone. you’re such a wonderful, kind soul, my love… but please keep in mind that it’s O K A Y to take a break sometimes. you know ?? it’s O K A Y to drop a few threads if you aren’t feeling them anymore or the amount of replies you owe scares you. no decent roleplayer E V E R will hate you for that, or like you any less. as i said – it’s a H O B B Y. it’s for F U N. and the second it becomes any more or any less than that; take a break for a while. roleplaying should not jeopardize your mental health. roleplay should not give you anxiety or panic attacks. as soon as logging on and doing replies feels like something you H A V E to do rather than something you W A N T to do, something’s W R O N G. don’t be afraid to say N O then. don’t be afraid to D R O P a thread or two then. don’t be afraid to take a H I A T US until you feel better and more confident again. DON’T BE AFRAID TO PUT YOURSELF FIRST THEN. your roleplay partners would most likely do the same thing if they were in your situation. they will understand, and if they won’t love you any more for caring about yourself the same way they care about you, they sure as hell won’t love you any less either. and if they do – then dump them, honestly, because they’re toxic people. so please, bottom line is, ROLEPLAYING IS A HOBBY. A GAME. A RELAXATION. AS SOON AS IT TURNS INTO AN OBLIGATION OR A REASON FOR STRESS: PUT YOURSELF FIRST. YOU ROLEPLAY FOR YOU, AND NOT FOR SOMEONE ELSE. and never, ever, ever be afraid of losing threads or roleplay partners you love dearly over that. because i’m sure they won’t go anywhere !!

matching length does not bother me one bit. but matched enthusiasm and commitment is desired. if you have no muse for the thread then please drop it rather then give me a reply with no love or feeling or thought.

just a heads up, if i ever weird you out on any level, too friendly, too flirty, anything at all, i encourage you to be very vocal towards me about it to make sure i dont continue to make you uncomfortable. i dont want anyone feeling like im not someone they can trust and be comfortable around.

I am an impulsive roleplayer.

I let my muse take the reins and decide what threads to start or reply to in a given day. If the muse doesn’t feel it, it isn’t happening. That doesn’t mean that I hate you or that I no longer want to interact with you; I probably either lost our thread or my muse just said, ‘nah bro.’

I’m sorry I drop threads.
I’m sorry I don’t reply to memes.
I’m sorry I ignore my asks.
I’m sorry I plot things and then don’t do them.
I’m an impulsive roleplayer: my muse guides me.

Roleplaying isn’t my job: it’s my hobby. I do it for fun. My muse isn’t my coworker: my muse is my friend. We have fun together. If I started treating this as a job, it wouldn’t be enjoyable for me anymore, and the quality of my content would diminish greatly!

And while we’re on the subject, just because a thread gets dropped does not mean the relationship between our muses is dead!! Thread =/= relationship! We can start something new and continue building their bond! Relationships are important to building new aspects of our muses!

I always want to roleplay with you. Just…perhaps not with that thread. You feel?
