another person who actually loves the game a lot but yeah. i don't mind it being a slow game at all and actually like backtagging, the sandboxy/DR with the structure of a game works for my life's schedule. and others i guess since it's a side-game for a lot of people... but some people take a month+ to respond to threads once. i'm not the fastest by any means but when i'm waiting to see if a square's possibly filled or not for over four months... smh.
this is also a game in which newbies really have to make the effort to tag out, too. i almost dropped when i first joined but ended up focusing on tagging other people and reaching out first, and now i'm in a good place.
i'd honestly adore some new blood to tag but get why people would have a hard time at the start.
Yeah the speed at which some people respond is ridiculous, even considering a normal "slow" pace. I'm personally not a "will back tag into forever!" person because I like to advance forward. I know there's no plot in the game, but I kinda like to know with certainty if my character actually did end up trying that one kink for the first time three months ago so that I know what the fuck to say if a different character brings the kink up in conversation ICly. It's awkward having to go and ask the person who has been sitting on my thread "hey did this actually happen", so I don't bother. I just flub it and end up retconning later if I need to.
But that's my only complaint, aside from Jamie still being in the game, but eh.
