April EMP Meme

ENABLEMEPLZ

meme goes up on the Second 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 either frozen or screened (based on what seems right based on the content).

FOR CHARACTER ADS:

Put up an ad about the characters you are offering. For PSL 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 section, where you post your character's 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.

There is a "Find Crosscanon" section, where you can talk about a character you play and and desired crosscanon for that character. Please make sure this is not too generalized a search, because just wanting general crosscanon can be accomplished with the other sections of the meme. This is for specific characters or character types you're looking for. In the subject, please list the "Looking for [canon you're looking for]" rather than your character's canon. If looking for a character type, list the character type in as few words as possible. Do not make the subject huge or I'll screen your comment. For the actual text of the ad you must use the "Find Crosscanon" form provided at the bottom of this post so that these ads don't get huge. This section is only for game crosscanon as in the psl section people can list their preferences.

Examples of crosscanon you can search for: You play The Flash from DC Comics and your dream CR is fellow speedster Quicksilver from Marvel. Or you might play a witch and want cr with other witches in general. Or maybe you play a good character messed up by evil parents and want to play against a villain character you know has evil parents, because you know it'd lead to some interesting negative CR.

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 frozen or screened. Keep in mind this needs to be more specific than "this game has easy AC like you're asking for but meets none of your other requirements." Make sure you're advertising games that might click with that specific character, where a few elements fit what they're looking for. You should be thinking about the story reasons of how the character might click with the game.

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 frozen or screened.

All mod responses regardless of whether they're rule breaks, correction requests (like someone posting in the wrong section), or thwapping someone for spamming copy-paste ads, have always been and will almost universally be public. If someone sends a PM and the conversation gets combative, this will also be made public and posted to the comments of the mod contact page. This is for the sake of transparency so people can judge the emp mod's communications for fairness themselves.

There are times where the player's post may be screened (such as if they posted to the wrong section) but the mod's response will be left unscreened.

Players may sometimes be allowed more than one strike for copy-paste ads since this is often just enthusiasm behind it, but game mods should know better. They'll get one warning for copy-paste ads, and if they spam anymore copy-paste ads after the warning, they'll be banned from the meme.

MOD CONTACT:

If there's trouble, tell me HERE, please!

Important note: IP logging has turned on due to multiple instances past and present of problem players trying to return to the dwrp community via emp after being banned other places, so I'll be IP logging from now on, and will compare notes with the rpa and wg mods (as well as game mods) where appropriate if it seems like someone that has been mass banned. I will not pay attention to IPs otherwise. I don't care what people like playing or who's who. So please feel comfortable to keep doing your thing, anon or otherwise. The knowledge will only be used for really egregious problem cases.

Spy x Family, My Hero Academia, Genshin Impact, Camp Half-Blood Chronicles, Vanitas no Carte

[personal profile] bethorns 2023-04-09 04:35 am (UTC)(link)
OFFERING
» YOR FORGER 🌹 SPY X FAMILY » Yor is a government civil servant and mother by day and an assassin by night...her canon is essentially the fake dating trope but make it fake marriage, and Yor herself is a fairly sweet person as long as you don't trip her protective reflexes and/or aren't ~traitorous scum~ she's hired to kill. She's also not the sharpest person alive though she scores very high in instincts. I'm definitely interested in playing her off of Loid Forger if anyone has him to offer, but I'm very happy to play her in cross-canon ships as well or just do gen stuff! She typically does well with people who she can see as "good" whether or not that's true and people who accept her oddities as normal and encourage her when she gets down. She's 27 in canon. In terms of what I'd like to play with Yor..."everything", since I'm still in the throwing her everywhere at the wall stage of things, but especially shippy stuff if I'm honest. I'd love some AUs for her too? Maybe something about bodyguards with her as the bodyguard.

» IZUKU MIDORIYA 🐇 MY HERO ACADEMIA » Izuku is a superhero in training with the quirk "One for All" - basically, he has super strength and a few other things. Determined to become the best "hero who rescues" with a smile on his face, Izuku is a super nerd who can be pretty awkward but who is super friendly with a heart of gold. He can get a bit anxious at times but he always means well and always wants to help others no matter what. I'm happy to play off of any castmate (I do have a fondness for Katsuki Bakugo as they're a top favorite ship of mine) and am willing to do cross-canon things with him as well. He's 16 in canon right now but I'm happy to age him up for memes or PSLs depending on the scenario. I'm always in the mood for shippy stuff when it comes to what I'd like to do with him, but also have a slight interest in bad-end canon AUS or the fantasy AU for him.

» KAEYA ALBERICH ❄️ GENSHIN IMPACT » Kaeya is the Cavalry Captain in the country of Mondstadt - even though the entire Cavalry is elsewhere at the moment, along with all the horses. He's a friendly guy who many people think is shady, and honestly maybe he is a bit - but he usually seems to be doing things for the good of Mondstadt so far and just seems to like to be kind of vague about how he goes about that. He'll occasionally give people a hard time just for the fun of it too and can be a bit hard to pin down...but he's pretty willing to talk to whoever. He also likes to drink, but he can handle his alcohol pretty well. For him I'd love to find a Diluc Ragnvindr to bounce off of but I'm wide open for any Genshin ships with him in it...or cross-canon, if he sounds up your character's ally! Definitely interested in AUs for him as well, especially royalty AUs and like, dramatic kingdom political stuff. He's in his twenties probably, I'll age bend if we wanna.

» NICO DI ANGELO 💀 CAMP HALF-BLOOD CHRONICLES » The demigod son of Hades and an Italian woman, Nico wields several death-based abilities. He's a reserved and somewhat anti-social person, tending towards quiet sarcasm and keeping secrets he doesn't need to keep alongside those he does, but he is ultimately good-hearted and will come through for his friends when they need him. I'm not looking for specific canon mates for him though I'd love to bounce off of anyone who happens to still play from this - though I admit I'd do a lot to do a gen thread or two with a Bianca. I'd love to do cross-canon stuff with him as that's what I usually end up doing with Nico! He tends to do well with sunny or less cynical characters to play off of, but he gets along well with cynical types too. In terms of shipping I'll only do m/m for him but I'm happy to do gen with any girls. He's around 15/16 in his latest canon point and I'm willing to age up for scenes if we like.

» NOÉ ARCHIVISTE 🩸 VANITAS NO CARTE » Noé is a vampire with the unique ability to view memories of those he drinks from. He's a fairly simple guy but is complex due to that simplicity - he has a very honest and straightforward way of viewing the world and takes things at his own pace. He's kind-hearted and moral and is moved to help others and do what he thinks is right. He's also pretty easily distracted due to a sheltered upbringing. I'm interested in pretty much any castmate for him for threading, though of course Vanitas or the de Sade siblings would be neat? Canon stuff, AUs, I'm pretty open here. I'm still in the voice testing stage for him and would love to get people to do that with.

While those five are the ones I'm seeking actively for at the moment, I'm also willing to play anyone listed here in the active or semi-active/voice-testing portions. I can occasionally be persuaded to bring back an inactive character for a PSL as well.
PREFERENCES
» Feel free to hit my OPEN POST if you'd like to test me out (some favorite generators are the soulmate one and "what the fluff"). If you want to jump into something serious without that, my PSL WISHLIST is available to kickstart discussions about what to do. I'm especially into canon what-ifs and AU scenarios and given any pair of characters I'm happy to offer up ideas for what we could do if you don't have a preference.

» Gen and smut are both fine. For shipping, M/F, M/M, F/F are all fine with me but may vary depending on character (for example, Nico is only open for M/M). For smut, kinklists can be found for guys and ladies but are essentially the same thing.

» I prefer brackets to prose but am flexible. I am willing to discuss scenarios not on my wishlist and I am happy to do crosscanon PSLs or threads.

» My timezone is EST but I do keep weird hours outside of work, so it isn't unusual to see me tagging very late or very early for that timezone.

» While I love long-term stuff, I'm very happy to do one off threads as well. My open post requires no discussion to hit, so please feel free to do so if you're interested in anyone I have available.

» That said, I am currently looking specifically for long-term thread partners, be it meme partners or psl partners! I'd love to find people who are willing to get into new canons with me and pick up characters on the fly and I'm happy to do the same. OOC chatter isn't a requirement but I'm happy to make new RP friends if the interest is there. However please note I'm perfectly happy to do long-term play without much OOC contact if that's more your style.

I'm about to hit up your open post for some bakudeku fun. do you have a journal you'd prefer me to pm (to hash out the fine details of what type of starter we both want) ☺️?

W e l l.

I've been needing an excuse to dust off my Vanitas again lmao! Your open post really looks quite enticing and I admit i'd like to hash out some details for something that could go long term? Some of the best RP threads i've had have been in-depth, long threads and canon does give us a lot of options on how to do that.

If there's a preferred journal to PM, please let me know and I'll toss a message over to it!

Oh that's absolutely fine! ^^ I've gone ahead and sent a PM that way all the same!

[personal profile] vandalizer 2023-04-09 08:34 pm (UTC)(link)
Hello! I have Van here to throw at Yor if you're up for something cross-canon related! He runs a solution office that involves working with taking requests from clients that range from bounty hunting, negotiating, fighting monsters or detective work. He's used to working with assassins, so her background wouldn't weird him out too badly. He's killed people on the job too, so eyyyy.

Maybe Yor could be a new employee working under him and he shows her the ropes? I'm up for shippy stuff too since Van is 24 in canon and he acts like a shady hardboiled badass, but he's a real softie and a bit of a manchild deep down.

Hi! I recognize a trails guy but haven't played this specific one yet...I've played all the english releases tho! I think that sounds like a ton of fun and would be up for shippy as well? I'm always up for cross canon esp with Yor, I think she's a lot of fun against cross-canon folks...and she'd be a good, like, employee lol.
vandalizer: (It's fingerlickin' good.)

[personal profile] vandalizer 2023-04-10 02:34 am (UTC)(link)
Oh good! I'm definitely ahead of the curb, so I can do my best to avoid spoilers if you don't want anything huge revealed! Van also keeps a lot of personal secrets about himself to his chest, that'd be no problem for him too. Shippy stuff would be very cute with Yor since Van totally needs someone doting and stubborn to look after him HAHA.

But I'm glad you're interested! I can hit up your open post with a starter soon and we can take things from there!
bethorns: (Default)

[personal profile] bethorns 2023-04-10 02:51 am (UTC)(link)
Sure, a starter there works! Also, I'm technically okay with Trails spoilers. I'm def gonna play it when it comes out, but I don't mind knowing some plot beats and such before hand.
