July EMP Meme

[enablemeplz]

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!

The knowledge will only be used for really egregious problem cases.

FIND CROSSCANON

Please see the instructions on this section in the post above

Looking for Across the Spider-Verse cross-CR

[spiderfriend]

[game]: Currently no game
[who I play]: Webber (spiderfriend) or Wendy (ectoherbology) from Don't Starve and Don't Starve Together
[wanted]: Spiderfolk!
[why]: I have been having an absolute blast tagging a number of different spiderfolk characters on bakerstreet memes with Webber here - specifically under the premise that some spider person or another rescued him out of his canon. I actually really like the mix of chemistry with them - a lot of spider folk are struggling and have lost someone, as have Webber and Wendy both, and having those older figures to relate to and rely on has a sort of healing and found-family vibe that I would love to really pick at in depth. Webber works especially well since he's literally fused to a spider - it's been very cute to have him relating to characters that are willing to do spider-y things with him and be his friend. I also especially love forcing Miguels to deal with kids, because, well. It's Miguel. It's got that fantastic bittersweet tone to it!
[game info]: N/A - I'd love to join your game or PSL!

[ninjavampire]

I really enjoyed our thread! I'm not in a game rn but I would not mind continuing to be meme-buddies with some established CR ongoing if you'd like.

Miguel is going to cringefail at being an adopted dad but he can be an okay spider boss with mother hen tendencies

[spiderfriend]

I would LOVE that so much!! Your Miguel is a delight and I'd adore these two getting closer and closer. I recently had a sad laugh realizing a parallel... Webber's dad was too busy and obsessed with his scientific studies to pay his son any attention :') So I definitely wanna roll that in eventually

[ninjavampire]

oof... miguel is isolated and can be a little scary when he's in a bad mood, but he is at least available for the stubborn enough spider-person that gets in his space.

a lot of pissy cat energy with this guy

[spiderfriend]

ANGRY MEOW with the teeth and claws and everything. it's why we love him!

You can hmu on discord (kiptsune) or something if you wanna point me at any meme in particular!

[ninjavampire]

- Games that focus on, require, or frequently use non-consensual sex are a HARD NO.
