Been struggling with this again. Feel like I've made a topic on this before.Â
I tend to find myself struggling to find RP outside the quicksands. That's not to say I have any particular dislike for the RP inside the quicksands - I actually find it quite fun. But sometimes I just wanna run into people in the world, and I've found this is often times near-impossible to do without scripting events heavily up front.Â
Then there's the people who go to the Tavern to create their own clique RP that seem to baffle me. You'll see this more often than not, where people go there specifically to meet someone to RP and seem to be moreso broadcasting "THIS IS MY PLOT ARC - but you can't join."Â
This is probably the part that frustrates me the most. Is seeing people and feeling like an outsider to the group - not having positive interactions with people. It's noticable the most iwth FC's and plotlines... people want things to go a /very rigid/, /very specific/ way that highlights their character. In that case, why not RP somewhere else...?Â
I dunno. I just tend to find myself for a loss on RP outside of events. Perhaps it's my own characters that create the issues. Perhaps I'm just not finding the right circles to RP with. Most of my RP is prompted - /l# "Anyone want to RP?" and then it's often one-on-one. I crave for some more open world / random RP's but even I'm at a loss for -how-.
