Hi! I'm zero doves.
I've been roleplaying for around four years now. There was a girl that I thought was cute, and was texting on KIK that did it. I was confused when she initiated it with "*sits down beside you*", but I went along with it. Shortly after, she introduced me to a KIK side app called "RP" where you post to find new roleplay partners (unfortunately, that's not all it's used for), and I went on from there. The summer after my junior year, I'd left the state and moved across the country. She and I continued roleplaying after I had left, even as I was cultivating more "roleplay partners" and advancing steadily as a roleplayer, my vocabulary and detail level growing with each and every person I met. Pretty soon, I was good to the point she was intimidated, being discouraged by not being able to produce what I could (writing this, I realize how cunty of me that was), and this ultimately led to us cutting ties.
In my senior year, for some odd reason, the roleplay community on KIK was seeing a large rise in the popularity of group roleplaying, KIK also at this time made a (now dead) side app called "Groups" - and it was glorious. So much new fun for many people, roleplaying in groups. Most of the roleplays were just "do whatever you want and cuff someone up", a lot of the themes being high school, college, and etc. They pretty much played out like reality TV shows. So amazing. At the peak of this trend's rise, people were establishing recurring groups. Everybody who was somebody knew someone holding a POPPIN ASS GROUP ROLEPLAY. How could something so prosperous die? Dick-swinging contests. It was killed by elitism. That, and people mixing roleplay drama with roleplay drama. I was a huge part of the problem, particularly with the drama. I'd discourage all of the males in the roleplays with post length, wordplay, and detail. My worst offense was a girl, who I had frequently roleplayed with and I dirty roleplaying in the group. That was some immature peacocking shit at it's finest.
You can probably imagine how the cookie crumbles from there. It just stopped. At the end of the trend's lifespan, people often tried roping old reoccurring group members back into the mix - and it'd never work. Never. I'd revert back to 1x1 roleplay. No matter how many fun roleplays I maintained, it'd never be able to match the enjoyment I derived from group roleplays. That's when I took to my app-store. This is when I downloaded two roleplaying apps: roleplayer forums and party in my dorm. On RPF, I learned the fundamentals of roleplaying. It made me see that detail, length, wordplay, and etc doesn't matter if there isn't something being conveyed. Everything else is just toppings for the already delicious ice cream. PIMD was the exact opposite, but it also taught me SO much. PIMD is a game, that just so happens to have a chat system. This keeps the community polarized, many being there for the game, with many others being there to RP. And, my goodness; everybody on this app was a fucking pornstar. This taught me a lot about smutty dirty RP. I already knew things, but this taught me A L O T more.
PIMD got boring when I gOtGuD, and the RPF app stopped working. Terrible development was to blame. This made me have to find a new place to roleplay, and the summer of my graduation from high school, I discovered Geeking. Man oh fucking man. This app went down recently (for the same reason as tumblr). It was furry infested, bot infested, and thot infested (which I am guilty of taking FULL advantage of). I've hosted and participated in many roleplays. After two and a half years of using that app, being on it through it's worst and best times, only to become pretty much detached. I devolved into a shitlord, and while geeking was on its deathbed, I antagonized the fuck out of the devs. I'm sure anybody reading this has already identified me as a twathole, which is fair BUT, I feel like I was justified in this case of cuntyness. The geeking devs and mods WERE THE WORST. The mods were comparable to twitch mods, only working to silence someone when they spoke out or came after someone the dev befriended. Never going after pedos, fetishists, and etc. Not that I have a problem with fetishes, I just don't dig whole communities devoted to fucking and killing animals. It was these toxic communities thriving that lead to the collapse of geeking.
After it being gone for a week, officially going under December 30th around 7 AM. Sigh. Here I am, hope you lovely peoples accept me with open cheeks <3
