Unpopular Opinions: RP/SG Edition

This thread is for any and all of the unpopular opinions you have about RPs or SGs. So share some of the opinions you have that are a little more on the controversial side hehe.

Some of mine:

  • Social media things are cool and all but so much effort lmao they’re just not relaxing to me in the slightest.
  • Not a huuuge fan of FCs that use really really famous people lmao

I can’t think of any more at the moment :thinking:

Anywho drop yours below reeee

I love them, tbh. But yeah, finding new photos for your character can be quite exhausting. I still think it’s an interesting way of getting to know certain people!

Me neither also me using Luke Evans as my FC

AGREED— while they’re creative and I admire everyone who makes one, I don’t think they should be a requirement because they take too long. :,)


My :sparkles: hot :sparkles: take: One liners are fine! Many people hate them and associate them with new RPers, but I think they’re okay if everyone has communicated and agreed to those expectations beforehand. Actually, they’re less work and pressure, and can be more enjoyable at times since plots typically can proceed faster. :woman_shrugging:t2: Although I personally would need more to work with, I’m in no position to tell people what’s the “right” or “wrong” way to RP.

A lot of the people I use for my faceclaims aren’t as popular as well, so it’s such a hassle trying to find photos of them. >.<

RIGHT
I actually like using obscure faceclaims too and that doesn’t mesh well with social media related things :sneezing_face: idk some people seem unnaturally talented with finding names but I just like “i will never know who this person is sad”

Adding to this, I love casual RP.

Like when you’re bouncing off ideas with other RPers and you all get into character and start speaking as your character (using quotation marks and other indicators). Next thing you know you’ve created such a fun scene with no expectations and pure fun. It can even spark some good ideas.
If you haven’t tried this definitely give it a go ^^.

Cole Sprouse where you at-
Oh wait, nevermind, found him. He’s an FC is almost every RP nowadays.

I don’t get the social media thing. I already don’t work on my own social media profiles, why do one for my characters?

I can’t think of any unpopular opinions I have. I just kinda go with the flow. I guess I’m not a huge fan of the love at first sight trope kind of thing. This is probably hypocritical as I used to do the same thing…
@RPers anything doth would liketh to addeth?
