ayrt

and what if i do have a tendency to drop threads, but they're like 15 or 20 comments in and i tell you i plan on tagging back because i do want to tag you back but then i don't because i can't find the spark again?

i'll admit it, i am guilty of flaking out on more than my fair share of threads. normally not just 3-5 comments in, but more often than not like say around the middle of the thread, and (though i'll never admit it unaon) especially if it's a prose-heavy thread. it's not that i enjoy brackets over prose, because i really am the kind of rper that enjoys both equally, but prose does tend to take more out of me i find. i'd say in 3 of every 5 prose scenes i do, midway throughabouts i'll get a monster of a tag or maybe not even a monster but just one that leaves me staring blankly. and then i go to tag it and nothing comes

i would really love to just explain this to people but i mean... just listen to it. it sounds like i'm a secret ecats wannabe or something. and prose players are often a little on the elitist side to begin with so telling them that feels even more lame. at least with a trashy sws player there's no pressure from the start

like i said, i really am just here for fun. and the thing is, i really would like to tag back all my dropped threads, because with a rare few exceptions i really was enjoying all of them. my tag inbox has currently got 303 tags, maybe 10 or 20 from this month and all the rest older, some going back to 2012. and i keep telling myself that one day i'm gonna tag them, but i know i'm almost certainly not

sorry for the word vomit, just this post unexpectedly touched on a button and since i'm one of those rpers that doesn't want a plurk and tries to minimize ooc contact i don't really have anybody to talk about this stuff with
