IJ isn't sending notifications. It happens.

Try any and/or all of the following:

1. Click 'recent comments' to see who has posted in your journal.
2. Bookmark your threads and check them periodically.
3. Remember or... (brace yourselves) WRITE DOWN where and what time you have posted to places like ~pbads or ~rps so you can check. Low-tech, but surely not impossible. If actually using a pen and paper is too hard, try notepad.

Is the notification thing a pain in the ass? Yes. Is it impossible to overcome? No.

Insert snarky comments below. I might not be able to answer though... IJ isn't sending me notifications. ;)

fucking finally. you made me hate her a little bit. i hope someone who knows what the hell they are doing comes in and takes your place. oh, and while you're at it, can you take the fat one no one cares about with you?

J Christ and all that's holy give it a REST. You have two weeks to plan and fill up this game week, and all I see is post after post after post ith the same fucking stuff all the time, every day, every hour, with the same subject

Talk about spamming!

i wish there were more hp next-gen games.

Protip: when I am pimping for a home for a man who is at least thirty-three years old at the youngest? You really, really should feel free to not comment with "come join this high school game!" There is no way in hell that my PB could pass for any younger than his early thirties, mostly because he's in his early thirties and looks it.

So unless your game is looking for that shady-ass "junior" with a beard and a mortgage who is actually an undercover FBI agent trying to bust a drug ring among the teachers, you can just move on, thanks.

Thank you ij for not sending me notifs, so I could find out days later than I had replies to all of my threads and never responded!

I really hate the idea of that. If this was a PB game then it's perfectly fine, but in celeb it's just plain weird and annoying.

i know i'm prob still on the page and this is a stupid vent, but i have to say it.

boyd holbrook is not a fucking high school boy. he's not even a high school boy if you go by the three or five year rule lots of places seem to have. he's twenty-fucking-eight years old (or there abouts). i could maybe believe it if you bothered to use young pictures of him, but i really cant suspend my belief enough to think of him as still a high schooler. and i really hate how he's always the rich bitch. really? you can't come up with any other concept for him besides rich bitch? you fail.

and i know its a stupid rant because youve got 27plus year olds playing high schoolers in shows all the time but that doesnt mean i always believe they're high schoolers either.

i really think if people insist on using boyd (and people like him (ie, mid to late twenties and up)), don't make him the rich bitch type and use some younger pics. seriously theres nothing wrong with originality! and the guy has done enough over the years that he really CAN come across as a wide variety of character types!

Faaaantastic. I have so many ideas brewing for my two favorite characters, but no one to fill key lines for them. It's not like I'm being crazy demanding, I'm so flexible about plotting and faces - I just don't get nibbles on my ads. (Side rant: am I the only writer left who likes to write good old realistic fiction!? Not to mention twenty-something characters, het, or platonic lines with substance. SIGH.) I can't sit on these ideas any longer because I really want to move forward with my characters. I'm certainly not about to quit writing them. I'm at the point where I think I'll just have to use some NPCs and have a plot party all by my lonesome. BLECH. Roleplaying is supposed to be interactive, I'm not in the mood to sit around writing short stories all by myself all day long, but it's really getting to that point and it. just. SUCKS.

oh my god. why do family games never make it? i am dying to play a wife and mother in a place that isn't full of the twikids and gossip cast. just...can't a 30+ woman get a little appreciation in the rpworld?!

Please, oh please mods, do NOT let this community get overrun by the young twenty-some scene kids who all have the same three aspirations and jobs. This community is not their haven, it's a haven for those of us who don't dig cookie-cutter scene girls and boys. Please mods, turn them away.

Unrelated, do not complain if I've taken a few days to get to tagging back. I've let you know why I've not tagged back on a daily basis so you didn't think I'd flaked. I didn't have to do that, but I did. Get over it, seriously. I will tag when real life doesn't dominate roleplay.

Also, it seems that once the crazy comes out of the box, it never wants to go back in. Good work there! Just bring attention to your failings as a mod. That'll really make people want to stay! :]

I don't think I have ever, ever had this many lines die all at once. This is depressing.

Every single multigen game ends up like this.

Why am I even surprised?

pretending that you're not around only works when you don't have six other people in the community that you think i don't know about.

S not Z, S not Z, dammit.

Also: amazing (and lasting!) lines are as elusive as Jonathan Ross's r's.

Why is it so hard to find someone to have a decent line with?

Maybe I'm setting the bar too high but I remember the days when I could connect with other players and we knew exactly where to take a story without even talking about it OOC. Nowadays it's difficult for me to find someone who can even plot a story with me. I'm so frustrated with the level of boredom I've reached that I'm on the verge of tears! I just want some substance!!!

1. I think that mods these days need to loosen up. I especially hate when there's two mods, since one is usually awesome and the other one is usually an uptight bitch. Never a happy medium.

2. The community is more active than I've seen it in a while. I wonder what ( or who ) will make it stop again.

you're kind of... a bad writer. and all of your characters are the same mary sue with a different face.

ugh.. i'm so frustrated to the point where i feel like crying because i feel like i'm such a let down to all the people i've ever played with and am currently playing with right now. i give up on storyline partners, communities, private storylines, threads, and everything so easily anymore. i know this doesn't make any kind of sense, but i just want to write! my brain doesn't want to function on a high writing level anymore and i don't know if that means that i am growing out of this or if it means that i am just in some sort of funky rut? where has all my inspiration gone? things that used to come so easily, now take days, weeks, or even months to write. i used to churn out bios in hours, threads in minutes, and aim scenes in seconds. now i am so damn sluggish and lazy, there are some days where everything just seems impossible and nothing gets done. things just keep piling up until finally.. i'm in here, venting because i have no other option. i'm at my wits end and i don't know what to do anymore. it's like, i don't know whether i should quit or if i should just keep feeling frustrated because there's honestly nothing else i can do about it. i just really love writing and right now, i feel like this is my only outlet, until i think of something better to do to preoccupy my time. sigh.
