The "I'm totally not mad I'm just an uninvolved observer linking this thread on wg for no reason teehee" defense has never been a good or believable look

Re: da

famously, a very good look is arguing for 200 comments about whether tfln is good or bad. this is very hinged. it's also important to make sure everyone knows your malleable protag does get smut threads, actually!! they get all kinds of great threads!! no one would ever not want to tag them!!

Re: da

you don't seem very hinged yourself just as an fyi

at least do a your mom joke, jesus christ

y'all really here typing like this? just. get off your phones for 2 hours. please

Re: da

you are really obvious trying to resurrect the ancient dead bones of threads everyone forgot about

go outside right now, i don't care if it's midnight

Re: da

everyone knows that tfln is for horny sluts and if someone so much as mentions sex in a tag with you they are probably a horny slut too

mha anon sounds like one of our resident "gray ace" asexuals who freaks out if they have to acknowledge the concept of fucking

Re: da

i didn't really read their posts tbh, they were too boring and i don't know why they're bothering to insist tfln is too horny when they could just not post in tfln, problem solved, it's one of like 500 memes

the tav player (? i'm not sure how many people are in that thread) seemed genuinely mad on tfln's behalf though so theirs were the funny posts

Re: da

[(Anonymous)]

it sounds like having read it they're just saying that they've had people start horny threads with them in response to someone who keeps insisting tfln isn't about drunken horny threads.

i regularly post to tfln. it is 80% horny shit. that isn't a good or bad thing, its just a fact. i'm very curious about this tav player and their insistence that most of tfln isn't horny stuff?

Re: da

[(Anonymous)]

actually tbh the source thread of that nonsense was someone pointing out tfln has a lot of ooc / mostly horny threads. i think the tav player feels called out, backreading to that.

Re: da

[(Anonymous)]

it was somebody having a tantrum about tfln is bad because it's ooc because horny, and people said you don't have to be horny on tfln, and hornyshame anon refused to accept that tfln isn't an obligatory horny meme for the rest of the comments which also got stupid but not *as* stupid as the anon angry at stupid sexy tfln

Re: da

[(Anonymous)]

they never said it was a bad thing, they just seemed confused about how other people found all these not horny threads.

i sympathize. I, too, have a bunch of castmates who horny tag. jjk...

Re: da

[(Anonymous)]

they seemed stupid. you get not horny threads by making your tags not horny.

Re: da

[(Anonymous)]

what they're saying isn't as funny as the fact that they continue saying it over and over without any understanding that the solution to their problem is very simple actually

Re: da

[(Anonymous)]

if you mean the solution of choosing not horny texts they pointed out they tried that. it doesn't stop some people, I've had the same issue and drop those threads. no big deal but I get where they're coming from

Re: da

[(Anonymous)]

i feel like that's a very canon-dependent thing because i've never had that happen to any of my characters when i picked a selection of prompts that weren't horny.

Re: da

[(Anonymous)]

that player is always on rpa being super aggro, so idk if it has to do with tfln in particular. they have a distinctive writing style and are incredibly hostile and condescending in all of their comments.

Re: da

[(Anonymous)]

i think you're right on the money tbh. somebody who just has a shitload of time to sit around being mad on rpa about whatever they can find.

not gonna lie after reading their unnecessarily pissy responses i switched my prefs to "no malleable protags" on all my journals

i'm obviously going to be cutting off normal people too, but whatever, i haven't seen a single one i'd want to tag recently anyway

nayrt

[(Anonymous)]

who is tav. not asking anyone to out the player i just don’t even know the character and i feel dumb?

Re: da

[(Anonymous)]

i'm ngl i get where you're coming from but letting anon dictate your preferences is some next level brainrot

it would be so easy for that to have just been someone lying and shit stirring

Re: da

[(Anonymous)]

i don't tag people who write "no malleable protags" because the only people i've ever seen do that are wankgate regulars with poor takes

Re: da

[(Anonymous)]

do we finally have a worthy gsai successor

Re: da

[(Anonymous)]

some people get really defensive of memes on bakerstreet especially the popular ones. i once mentioned in a disco group that tfln was a low effort way to unwind since it was fast and not serious and a friend of mine got incredibly offended by it. idk maybe some people are putting in a ton of effort for it but 98% of the people i know treat it as a time waster that at best may introduce you to some new people and at worst will give you some awkward threads

Re: BAKERSTREET

who are you thanking? Im not in that thread

go do your tags instead of wankfishing on some random rpa anon
