March 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 / kink 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 fonts and other html that make ads super long, 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 canon 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.

There is a "Pairings You Want to Play" section, where you can ask for castmates or crosscanon you'd like to ship with. Please format this with "[YOUR CANON] seeking [CASTMATE/OTHER CANON (if crosscanon)/SEE DESCRIPTION (if a general character type)]. For the actual text of the ad you must use the "Pairings You Want to Play" form provided at the bottom of this post so that these ads don't get huge. Alongside castmates and crosscanon, you can choose to ask for OCs or general character types as well. Try not to get too wordy and please don't outline entire scenarios.

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.


The meme is for fiction-based RP only (with the only exception being involvement of fictionalized historical figures or historical settings.) Celeb or RPF RP advertising, whether for games or players, is not allowed.

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.

 seeking
- canon, cross-canon, cross-medium, assumed cr, canon mash ups, full on aus, canon divergent stuff, i'm here for it all. ocs are a case by case basis, but i'm not at all interested in canon ocs.

- cards on the table, i'm looking for shipping threads for all of them.

- for leon, i'd love to have castmates especially krauser, luis, or ashley, but very open to any other re character except ada or claire. i'd especially LOVE other horror/survival characters for him, but open to anyone. outside of castmates, i'm only looking for m/m. some ideas i'd love would be mission team ups, mentor/mentee or leader/subordinate for young cop leon or early agent days, older cop and rookie cop partners, outbreak or apocalypse settings, or something with actual cult stuff. would also love love love a werewolf or mermaid thing with leon. non-human characters are especially loved.

- for jason, i'm here for all the batcest so come at me. otherwise, i'd love other hero/anti-hero types or even some villains. love a good werewolf au for him. definitely interested in some undercover stuff, task force x, reluctant team ups, canon fix it stuff, all kinds of other stuff for him, really. no real pref for m/m or m/f for him.

- for peter, full transparency: i'm garbage and am looking for age gap stuff with him. heavy preference for m/m but open to m/f for other mcu types (except his classmates). definitely love a good mentor/mentee thing here for him. something post NWH with him finding someone to get close to after losing everyone else would be especially dope. some multiverse stuff where people are shuffled around is also great. would love a tony, steve, strange, or beck, but i'm here for most anyone canon mates wise.

- for megumi, i'm only looking for either gojo or yuuji for him. i'm only up to the gojo/sukuna fight in the manga, so we can do something before that or just change things up entirely like a megumi rescues gojo from his box type deal. would love to just do some other missions and stuff with them as well. doesn't have to be super dark and serious, just really wanna explore their dynamic.

- for bruce, i'm heavily re-voicetesting here and behind on anything past the joker wars. but i'm mostly looking for some slow burn romance stuff here. i'm super garbage and love age gaps, so younger characters are on the table and so are members of the batfam. we can go all kinds of different routes here. cool with m/f for other dc characters, but m/m otherwise. not interested in shipping with selina/catwoman or diana/wonder woman.

- for seth, re-voicetesting here as well. i'd especially love kate or santanico, but i'm here for richie as well! for cross-canon/medium stuff, would love some sort of heist team ups, doing different jobs, etc. or making him have to fight more vampires of different sorts, haha.

 prefs + misc
- i really like to do at least some plotting to get an idea of what kind of dynamic we're both looking for and have at least a vague idea of where we're initially trying to go with a thread (are they robbing a bank, are they on the run, etc.). we don't have to get down in the weeds or do a lot of world building unless you want to, but i do love some world building.

- memes, psls, one off scenes, etc. are all good for me! i have a preference for doing psls where i can but we can start small to feel things out.

- i love smut, so we can definitely include it if that's your thing. if it's not, fade to black/hand waving is always an option. we can keep it vanilla or get filthy if you wanna smut.

- i am a slow tagger. i try to get to things at least once or twice a day, but schedule dependent, it might take a few days. i will backtag forever, though. i'm generally a lot faster with text threads unless i'm swamped at work.

- unless it's a text thread, i have no interest in short tags. i'm prone to being wordy for tags, so i will absolutely lose interest if it's constant 2 - 3 sentence tags.

- horror, urban fantasy, some sci-fi stuff, and darker tones are my jam, but i love mixing in lighter and more emotional stuff in with all of that. love common tropes like soul mates, reincarnation, vampires, werewolves, mermaids, you almost died, nursed back to health, etc. i'm giant omegaverse trash, so by all means. come at me with that.

- i have plurk and discord for plotting if that's your thing, but my pms are always open!
