OOC: A thought on 'Secret' comms.

[open_flame]

I find it amusing how people are so willing to accuse people of things and call them out behind the 'protection' of the anon comment and/or the 'secret' post because it's 'safe'.

You're doing it wrong.

If you're not brave enough to say something openly that you feel strongly enough to make a shit paint 'secret' about, I don't put much stock in any accusation you make, opinions you have, or judgments you make on anyone or anything. Call me crazy, but I believe what I see with my own eyes, not what I'm told to believe by someone else.

I stay away from those comms for exactly that reason. Same reason I stay away from bad_rpers_suck, too, because if someone's gotta talk crap about someone else in a comm like that and not do it directly (or at least discretely), then they're not worth my time.

But what you're describing, I totally agree with you. I know the people I RP with - for the most part - and yeah, I'm gonna trust what I've experienced over what some stupid anon says.

Most of the anon discussion I'm referring to isn't so much directed at one person but is about RP in general. I'd never single out anyone or be meaner than necessary, even anon. But sometimes it does help to vent anon and realize that there are others who are annoyed by the same things as me.

I agree with all this. I love that Tumblr RP Rabbit. :D

Attacks on people directly, that's just low. We're all human, we all suck in a lot of ways and rule in a lot of ways. (usually)

That rabbit is great! :D

I used to beat myself up over even the slightest crit but now I brush it off. I figure the people that like me are gonna thread with me, and that's all I need.
