Let's Gush!

[Mixtape Ghost N]

This is a random idea I had that's going to end horribly - but yolo. The basic idea of this thread is that it's the total opposite of this thread. where instead of complaining about stuff, we discuss things we actually like about Roleplaying, or enjoyable experiences - because ya'll negative af.

[Jig]

I'll start the ball rolling.

I joined a game a year and a half ago (ish) and then it died, and then I later restarted it with pretty much the same cast and then I can't really keep up with the GMing right now but I get to drop by from time to time and everybody's still there and wishes me nothing but the best.

It reminds me that, behind the character sheets and the posting and stuff, I've spent a huge amount of time working on something that's largely unimportant with people I don't know for no reason other than because I'm involved in a hobby I like with people whose company I enjoy. In that time I got to know people and their foibles and they lived my best and worst days with me too.

I've tried to explain to Jig's Still-Excellent Partner what RPing is once or twice, but won't let them read the stuff I do here, because, unless they're prepared to trawl through every single OoC post, they're not getting the context that makes it what it is.

[Fillet]

I love my current RP partners. Two are on here, one's on another site. My cravings have been satiated and I'm not restlessly scrolling through interest check and interest check anymore. :D

[Letter Bee]

I love my current RP partners as well; for all three of my RPs in RPGuild and a fourth one that is about to start this New Year; they're very cool and awesome!

[McHaggis]

Oh my god, a gush thread, this is what I've always wanted in my life! It's almost 5 AM and I'm ready to become a total sap.

First of all, I love absolutely everyone who's shown interest in my RP, and how they've all stuck around for almost a month now. There hasn't been a day without at least one post, which makes me all warm and fuzzy inside. People are getting involved in the plot, and because they're so good it makes me wanna be a better GM for them.

I also wanna squee about my core team who are in every RP with me and who I co-GM for (and they co-GM for me, too). I've never met more dedicated players in my short-ish time roleplaying, bar the few I've known from the very beginning. Brainstorming is a blast, but even more so when you actually get to go through with everything you've planned so far. It's so satisfying to see it come together, and before the last month I'd never managed it.

I'm in one of those moods right now where I love RPing and just wanna sing about it – except not literally.

[cerozer0]

I've never spoken in a gush thread before! Blaming others for leading me here tho >:3c

This is the first time in literal years where I've just felt the constant urge to RP. I'm usually very flaky, shame on me, but now with the few rps I'm in and running I just want them to go on forever and ever. I have the people in them to thank of course. They're all very kind to me and my GM team and they're wonderful writers. I couldn't be happier with everything.

Its like 12pm and I'm not sure if any of that made sense but hey who cares let me ramble like a drunkard!

[MyCatGinger]

Oh my gosh! Oh my gosh! :D

@Jig we love you too. <3

I love when there's lots of OOC chatter. And it can have noting to do with the RP, at all, and still, everyone's just laughing and having a good time together. Like...gasp, friends!

I was talking to someone from one of the RPs I'm in about another personal project of mine, and they were wonderful enough to go through it and brainstorm with me and talk me through new avenues I didn't even think to explore.

Ooh! And and. I've never spoken to them before, but reading @Guess Who's status updates whenever there are any always fill me with

determination

Inspiration! Thank you, whoever you are!

[AlteredTundra]

@Mr Allen J
A wonderful idea! With all the variation threads going around lately, I was wondering when a thread like this would pop up. Kudos to you for being the one to do so, J. :D

Okay, let me get started:

First off, I want to thank every single one of my writing partners. This extends out to my private 1x1s, my co-gms, and those whose rps I am an active player in. Lately, my need to write has been at an all-time high. I never felt more inspired than I have these past couple of months. From the RP I run with, to the other group rp I'm a player in, and to my 1x1s, I am truly thankful for those wonderful people. Without them, I would be bored out of my mind. Plus, with so many wonderful and talented writers, I really feel the positive energy going through me each time I respond to a post or do a collab with one or more of these talented fuckers.

Seriously guys, you rock! Don't ever change.

@MyCatGinger

Your welcome, and thank you. I didn't realize I was so popular.

[AbysmalDemon]

@Mr Allen J Oh my gush a gosh! Oh my gosh a gush! (I'm so funny :P)

Anyways, there is an RP that I've been with for about three to four months now, and the people in it are the most dedicated people that I have ever seen. The RP itself has been going for almost a year (kind of) and even though it's slowed down so many times they've stuck with it.

Also a big thank you to the guild itself. It holds many talented writers and fun people,many my life would be so different without it. I'm glad I stumbled upon this site, and thank you to everyone who's made my experience here a great one!

[Arawak]

I am finally able to share so many things pent up in my world for all too long.

It is beautiful.

I have dozens of alien species and a galaxy to build. Building a galaxy means having to populate 200-700 million worlds. So it may take some time. Think of all the civilizations and cultures contained in that many planets.

Shame it's overwhelming all at the same time. Good thing I have other RPers to latch to and work with on making galaxies with a new RP out with people who have interesting things to bring to the table.

So much fun is going to come.

[Mikaela]

I think being new on here and finding a partner to do a 1x1 with and them being an insta-match.

I think it's great and just really rare!

[Koda]

I want to echo @Mikaela. Being new here and finding wonderful partners that seems to jelly right from the get-go is simply phenomenal. My first impression of roleplaying is positive so far!

By the way Mikaela, is that Barbara Palvin as your avatar? If so, she's bae. I just wanted you to know that even if that isn't Ms. Palvin.

@Koda

It is Barbara Palvin! You can't go wrong with those trademark brows and eyes. I thought of putting up Kendall Jenner since I like her a lot but Barbara has been in the modelling game longer and she's so beautiful.

By the way, I'm glad you're having a good time around here too!

Cheers to the newbies. ;)

@Mikaela

One doesn't shun those beautiful brows and eyes of Ms. Palvin. A crime I say. A crime! *Sigh* Kendall Jenner. Yet another beauty within the modeling industry.

Indeed! Cheers to us newbies!

Mostly I just love my RP partners in every RP I'm in.

I just love having a community who understands all the goofy references I make, one of the reasons I prefer fandom RPs to original ones.

It's like, I can post a gif and people will immediately understand what I'm saying without having to explain it.

That's the best.

[Nemaisare]

I love my role-play partners too. I want to hug all of them all the time.

But I'm also grateful for the ones that might not have remained my partners or with whom I didn't finish planning, simply because most of them were kind and understanding when it came to me having to jump ship. If I wasn't feeling it, if I got too busy, if I just didn't want to anymore, the most I have had on this site is someone ignoring me, and while it might have been nice if they'd answered, I just want to say that I am so damned grateful no one's gotten outright angry at me over it. And most have been absolute angels. It makes things that much easier when I don't have to feel guilty for life happening to me.

[AuntFlavia]

@Jig's RPs are a joy to be in, not only because they happen to cater to my stupidly specific tastes but because they're damn good. Wolf Manor was the first RP I've been in when everyone involved really felt like a team.

And speaking of...

@MyCatGinger is awesome. Cat, on a website where lack of communication can be a problem, you're basically sunshine in a can. I don't think I would've been confident enough to speak up in WM if you hadn't been so wonderfully vocal and encouraging. :)

I also love it when you find out that people actually read the RPs you're in. It's real sweet.

[tsukune]

@Jig Your RPs are leaving me hanging. Can't blame you - who can get away from the insanity of real life so easily anyway? But I do hope that you can eventually come back and continue to wow me till the murderer is finally revealed!

@Mr Allen J Three 'thank yous': one, for being the brain of your Verthaven game; two, for awakening the collab blood in me; three, you have drilled a bad habit into me - for associating each scene in my RP posts with some BGM. Oh, and also for creating this thread. We need moar love, not hate.

@Altered Tundra While we don't get the chance to RP together, but you always enlighten me with sarcastic quotes. Life's never been so amusing.

[Mixtape Ghost N]

Bump.
