This this this this a thousand times THIS. This is a wonderful way to make new RP friends, to expand your RP networks, and find yourself swimming in hooks and plots and the rest of that. Popularity, if we want to call it that, takes effort - can't be popular if you can't engage and interact with people. Bad interactions will come along with the good of course, but being open to the possibility of interaction is hella important.
I feel that these two statements actually embody the majority of RPers in this community and a great many in game as well. That is why I'm so shocked that we need things like the OP created, as amusing as it is. Well said, both of you.
What a colossal waste of time and energy.
