This is good advice, anon, thanks. I'll have to try it and see if I can't discipline myself away from the easy dopamine hit of "just talking about it".

is it hard to navigate by typing /profile into the url? some games and users on here have really shitty aesthetic layouts, but you can access everything through the profile usually or just view it as the site skin

new anon to this conversation, but that feels a lot like it defeats the purpose. i don't think all games/layouts have to be 'mobile friendly', but if you make it so that the thing you have out there to draw people in/display your game is impossible to navigate for a large chunk of people so they have to add in something to make it legible, you need to rethink your aesthetic. can i add in /profile? of course. but not everyone's going to initially think that and frankly, they shouldn't have to. your game layout shouldn't be stupid.

like i said above, i can find ways around using the layout! i use /?style=mine, personally. but i thought we were commenting on why we didn't vibe with the layout. for me, it's not that it doesn't fit my personal aesthetic, it's largely a navigability and access issues. i'm not discounting that a lot of work went into it! it's just not checking an important box for me.

at the same time "this is a problem I could easily fix myself but I'm choosing not to do it" is also not a good look.

I hate 90% of the aesthetic on this site (journals that are just a single image and nothing else are bullshit imho) but I have learned how to navigate around it. honestly some games are so ugly with the same boring tessisiamess layouts it's kind of funny to have one that has made being ugly an aesthetic choice.

for me the whole thing is just unreadable. everything is SO tiny. what is this, a layout for ants?

I normally would also agree with you except this game isn't trying to attract a large chunk of people to join it or navigate it. It's a private game where you have to know the mod. There isn't an invite request or even a way for players to invite other players.

looks like there actually is a line that the rpa mods won't cross when it comes to kywtp

is this a compilation of every common wg complaint made into a single rp journal because it is definitely hitting those notes, well done

it was probably more the cropped shota porn icon right in your face that got it removed, rather than the content

Re: da

(Anonymous) 2024-06-12 11:25 pm (UTC)(link)
no, but i understand why you'd think that because the journal in question fell down a mountain of cliches and hit every rock on the way

i would like less of that specific horny energy, tbh

ask for all the monsterfucking mermaid werewolf telekinetic tentacle exhibitionist noncon you want but that person thinking it's fine and normal to post shota porn on rpa because it was kinda cropped needs a head check

you're thinking of either some other anon or a different thread because i have no idea what you're talking about

(Anonymous) 2024-06-12 11:45 pm (UTC)(link)
meh, they might've come from ij where people will get attached to particular "face claims" for their ocs. it might be harmless, but i'd tread carefully.

she has called her previous names deadnames recently but i've never seen her claim to be trans anywhere

if she's not trans that's an unusually high level of tonedeaf even for here
