enablemeplz | April EMP Meme

ENABLEMEPLZ
meme goes up on the last Saturday of every month
FOR GAME ADS:

➤ Put an ad up with the characters / crew / pairings / fetish you want for your game under the correct game header. This meme is primarily going to be focused on DWRP games but IJ and LJ games are allowed.

➤ PLEASE NOTE A RULE CHANGE HERE. ABSOLUTELY NO obnoxious coding (no font size > size 4 or 3 "big" tags, no oversized banners (they must be 250px in height or less), no blinking text, no obnoxious table html that doesn't collapse easily, no sparklies, no large pictures). Use all the colors you like, but please remember 3 "big" tags is the limit and that's only for headers or title text rather than for all the text in an ad.

FOR GAME QUESTIONS:

➤ RPers interested in a game can create a header for the game and ask questions about that game that aren't easy to find on faqs, such as the actual pace vs. what's listed/what kind of plots are run/if the game leans more towards plotty or slice of life/if a game leans more towards network or logs, etc. Both anon questions and anon answers are welcome in this section just like in the rest of the meme.

➤ This thread is not for speaking about wank or drama in a game. There are anoncomms that exist for that. This thread is specifically for general questions about a game that rpers want to get perspective on from players already in the game. Answers can be slightly negative (such as saying app response is slow or that the plots are repetitive or similar things) but this should at least be worded politely. Unnecessary vitriol, any mention of personal drama or wank, or mod teams/individual mods/players being singled out, will be screened and/or deleted.

FOR CHARACTER ADS:

➤ Put up an ad about the characters you are offering. For PSL/1-on-1 ads, there is a separate subthread but for character ads for games, post directly to the meme post. Others will comment to you with the games/casts they want you to join.

➤ There is a "Find a Castmate" section, where you can talk about a cast you play in at a game, and try to lure people to join it. Not all games post to the meme or have a "wanted" section, so players that want to tempt people to their cast on their own can use this section for it. Please format this the same as the PSL/1-on-1 section, where you post the canons in your subject. For the actual text of the ad you must use the "Find a Castmate" form provided at the bottom of this post so that these ads don't get huge. When listing who's currently in a cast, please do this in sentence form (with commas) rather than in list form.

➤ ABSOLUTELY NO obnoxious coding, with the same rules as the Game Ads Section above.

➤ If you're recommending a game to someone, try to match your suggestion to their needs. It's okay if part of your game rec is copy-pasted (such as what the game's about), but at least some part of the rec must be personalized to their ad. Try not to recommend the same game to every single ad, either. Ad spam that isn't individualized in some way will also be screened.

IN GENERAL:

➤ Don't be a dick. This isn't one of the anoncomms, so any snide comments or unnecessary commentary on the RP plans of others will be screened.

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

Hey there! Welcome to DW! I hope you have fun with us. If you don't mind, I wanted to comment here to give you a heads-up. This place is to find new games and I want you to find one easily, so something to take into account:

>>> Slack or Hangouts group chat
You won't find this here. We use plurk or discord. Maybe a player or two will give you their personal Slack/Hangouts to chat, but it won't be group chats. You aren't obliged to join those sites, you can use the ooc comm of the games to communicate and that's it! But if you like chat groups with your playmates, those are the way to go.

>>> Para style
We don't have the whole "para style" here either, at least not in games, you can ask for a psl partner that sticks to long tags. In games, tags are usually of the length that matches the topic. Action tags are usually a bit longer, but even those can stay short if they're just like, having tea or something. You won't find a whole game that sticks to long tags - usually the network comm is more short and spammy, and the log comm has longer stuff, but they aren't hard rules and they vary. One thread can have both in one day.

>>> Detail heavy bios
Only OCs do that! Fandom characters usually link the history to a wiki page, and the main description is about personality. And this is talking about game apps - each game has different standards on word count, but don't be surprise if a character journal has no bio/info at all. Many games screen their apps too, so it's not something you'll even have access to.

I hope that helps! Please don't take this as me trying to shit on your list or anything, if you wanna stick to the way you do things that's fine, but I want new blood in DWRP and I think you'll have an easier time finding a game if you understand how we do things a bit different over here. Good luck!
